It looks at the way that her style changed over the course of the time that she was writing in her diary.

From the Paper
"Significantly Anne's fifteenth birthday is only two months away from her last letter to Kitty, to her people, to the world. Anne went the path of the righteous, the path of self improvement, growth, faith:" People who have religion should be glad, for not everyone has the gift of believing in heavenly things... It isn't the fear of G-d but the upholding of one's own honour and conscience."
"If you visit Anne Frank museum in Amsterdam, just listen and you will hear her laughter, her whisper, her joy of first love. You will hear the Gestapo stepping with their heavy dirty boots into a pure sweet life. A "Little bundle of contradictions" , who did so well in perfecting her traits, and returned her pure soul to her Creator."

Abstract
This paper explains that Anne Frank in her bibliography "Anne Frank: Diary of a Young Girl", being a typical teenage girl, was incredibly emotional. The author points out that the circumstance in which she recorded these sentiments was such that they were always overshadowed by her immense fear. The paper relates that, in the first few diary entries written in the Annex, although slightly afraid, Frank does not realize the true level of danger she is in and therefore fills page after page with detailed but mundane descriptions of daily life in the Annex. The author then explains that, as Frank matures, she begins to empathize with the apprehensiveness felt by the adults and, as a result, her fear begins to increase. The paper stresses that, in a child's mind, death is not a feasible occurrence; therefore, she can allow herself to believe that she does not fear it.
From the Paper
'In this entry, as well as many others, she discusses her constant fears of being caught by the Germans while hiding in the secret annex with her family. This entry is especially powerful because it sheds light on the fact that, in such small cramped conditions, there is little to do but let your mind wander. When put in a situation where you can not talk or laugh too loudly for fear of capture, all that one is left with is his or her thoughts and for a young girl, this can cause immense fright. As she points out on this same page of her diary, everything she says or does leads her back to thoughts of fear."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the differences between the film and book version of Anne Frank's "Diary of a Young Girl," pointing out how the movie took some creative liberties and differed from the original book. It also discusses that the film does not follow the lines from the book and also contains very few direct quotes. The paper also contends that the film glosses over the actual struggles faced by the families in hiding that are so effectively described in the book. The paper concludes by noting that a close inspection of the movie indicates that many aspects of the book were simply overlooked for the sake of sentimentality. It is recommended that the book should be read prior to watching the film version.
From the Paper
"The book captures the negative feelings of the characters up until the end when Anne is conflicted by the negativity she experiences all around her and the hopefulness she feels for a future - especially with Peter. This type of naivety is perfect for the written page because one never truly express all of the feelings one experiences regardless of how one tries. Here we see Anne not trying to convey anything to an audience and thus she expresses a mood and emotion that is completely spontaneous and unassuming. We can never have this with a film because the very act of filming removes any sense of realism from the scene. However, we can know that Anne was writing only for an audience of one and this lends more credibility to the novel because it is authentic in a way that a planned film could never be."

From the Paper
"Anne Frank speaks out through time and space. In the beginning her voice sounds joyful and without worries. It matures and hurries up along the story as if to deliver and share as much of the unreal reality as possible. The diary was started as a "no big deal", the "notebook" that was awaiting the birthday girl in the room. Such mastery, such Divinely inspired art of a writer - to begin her life story with a birthday celebration, a life story which is to be cut short so soon, so cruelly, a story..."

From the Paper
"In January 1933, Adolf Hitler, leader of the German National Socialist Workers' Party (the Nazis), was appointed chancellor of Germany. Hitler brought to his position a vicious anti-Semitism that found its expression through stringent anti-Jewish policies and, eventually, the mass extermination of Jews in concentration camps. Aware of Hitler's rising power and its future implications for Jews, Otto Frank arranged for his family to leave Frankfurt for Holland in the summer of 1933. He established a food products business in Amsterdam, and the next few years of Anne's life continued without remarkable incidence."

Abstract
This paper analyzes and compares two examples of Holocaust literature: Anne Frank's famous book, "The Diary Of A Young Girl" and Elie Wiesel's Nobel Peace Prize winning book, "Night." The paper describes and compares the texts and styles of the books and further discusses the importance of the two texts in teaching the world about the events of the Holocaust.
From the Paper
"The Diary Of A Young Girl by Anne Frank and Night by Elie Wiesel are two documents that allow humanity to enter into the world of the Holocaust and learn about the tragic events that took place. A common agreement among survivors and victims of the Holocaust is that there could never possibly be the exact language to describe the horrors that took place during this dark period in history. The two texts written by Frank and Wiesel, however, are literary texts that are able to give profound insight and information into what really did occur throughout the Nazi regime. Both authors give extraordinary accounts of their lives, which are unforgettable reminders of what humanity should never let happen again."
