    Despite several notable contrasts between Anne Frank’s life presented in the play, “The Diary of Anne Frank,” and other accounts of Jewish people in hiding during World War II, the lives of these Jews had more similarities than differences. These people were similar in the way that they lived the same schedule every day.

The Jews lived with fear of getting caught by Nazis in the back of their minds. Even though Jewish people may have had different

She lived in a very bad time during the Holocaust, where she either had to hide or go to a concentration camp. Anne Frank is a normal girl that should be going to school and not be in hiding from the Nazis and should not have to take the sacrifices of having no friends, no ability to be free and to express her religion. I consider Anne a hero because of all the dedication to staying free and not having to be under a dictatorship.

  • Night By Elie Wiesel Rhetorical Analysis

    1337 Words  | 3 Pages

    We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”. What we see Elie saying is that no matter the repercussions, we should always help those in need. During the holocaust he didn't receive the same treatment and that's why he swore to always help victims. During the holocaust other European countries like France and Britain just stood by and watched as the Germans slaughtered the Jewish people, they acted in “neutrality” and Elie forbids doing that because “silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”. When hitler was in charge every country feared of repeating world war 1 so they tried to negotiate with Hitler, trying to get him to settle down with all the land taking but it only worked for a short period of time, everyone ignored what was happening to the jewish people and pretended that it was better then it seemed. Elise says that we must choose sides, and always fight for what we believe in and to never ignore what's happening even though we still do that today with other problems that are going on around the world especially in poor war torn countries. Hitler put the people in concentration camps and forced them to work for free, and if they didn’t work fast enough or didn’t work hard enough then they were killed. The

  • How Does Elie Wiesel Keep Memory Alive

    640 Words  | 2 Pages

    Nobel Peace Prize winner Elie Wiesel gave a speech called, “Keep Memory Alive.” This speech shares the message: “Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormented.” Which basically means that staying neutral, or silent helps the “bad guy” or “bully.” And if we keep silent we are encouraging the silence of the victims. Elie Wiesel is a Romanian-born Jewish writer, professor, and political activist. He spoke this speech in Oslo on December 10, 1986. Elie speaks about how someone should not stay silent in any wrong doing. He speaks not just for himself but for the survivors and the children of the survivors. He himself is a holocaust survivor who doesn’t want people to forget what him, his family, his friends, and even complete strangers had to go through, therefore, he created the speech “Keep Memory Alive.” The writer illustrates his theme of this speech by giving a memorable tone using a flashback with a young boy and his father going through the tragedy of the holocaust.

  • The Diary of Anne Frank Book Review

    1379 Words  | 3 Pages

    On June 12, 1929, at 7:30 AM, a baby girl was born in Frankfort, Germany. No one realized that this infant, who was Jewish, was destined to become one of the worlds most famous victims of World War II. Her name was Anne Frank. Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, by Anne Frank and B.M. Mooyaart, was actually the real diary of Anne Frank. Anne was a girl who lived with her family during the time while the Nazis took power over Germany. Because they were Jewish, Otto, Edith, Margot, and Anne Frank immigrated to Holland in 1933. Hitler invaded Holland on May 10, 1940, a month before Anne?s eleventh birthday. In July 1942, Anne's family went into hiding in the Prinsengracht building. Anne and her family called it the 'Secret Annex'. Life there was not easy at all. They had to wake up at 6:45 every morning. Nobody could go outside, nor turn on lights at night. Anne mostly spent her time reading books, writing stories, and of course, making daily entries in her diary. She only kept her diary while hiding from the Nazis. This diary told the story of the excitement and horror in this young girl's life during the Holocaust. Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl reveals the life of a young innocent girl who is forced into hiding from the Nazis because of her religion, Judaism. This book is very informing and enlightening. It introduces a time period of discrimination, unfair judgment, and power-crazed individuals, and with this, it shows the effect on the defenseless.
