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 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."

Abstract
The paper discusses how the character, Anne Shirley is more than a character in a book. She has been a friend and kindred spirit to millions of people over several generations. It shows how we relate her adventures to our own lives and filter them through our own experiences. Anne grows from childhood into adolescence, from adolescence to adulthood and beyond and each step of the way the reader is there with her, sharing her decisions, facing her fears and relating it to their own lives. The paper discusses how the growth and individuality of L.M. Montgomery's Anne Shirley in "Anne of Green Gables", "Anne of Avonlea", and "Anne of the Island", depicts an inner struggle from self-delusion to self-awareness that can be recognised within us all.
From the Paper
"The novels are over, Anne finally realized she loves Gil, and their future seems set, so why do we still need more? What is it about Anne Shirley that has kept a world at her side for close to a century? Epperly captures it best when she states; "we cannot fully explain Anne's hold over us"(46). My mother and grandmother both read Anne's story before me, loved her spirit, and secretly wished to be her. Three generations of women enraptured by one small girl with the heart of a lion. Why? "Anne Shirley continues to live on today because she does not conform to reader expectations, to cultural stereotype, or accepted convention"(Epperly 70). I like to believe Anne Shirley lives on today because each of those readers would consider her a friend and kindred spirit and has held and cherished a piece of her in their hearts since they first discovered her. There is something about Anne that brings out the best in people. Her imagination, her joy in every common thing, her virtues and her faults; Anne is an icon for attaining our dreams."

The Romantic Fates of Jane Austen and Anne Elliot, 2001.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper draws comparisons between "Persuasion's" Anne Elliot's romantic struggles and that of the author, Jane Austen, suggesting that nearing the end of her life, the author was reflecting on how her own life may have eventuated had she married the man from her youth, instead of remaining single. The author examines other relationships in the novel and how those relationships represent the alternative fates Anne may have suffered had she not gained the strength to take an active role and marry for love.
From the Paper:
"Jane Austen's final novel, "Persuasion", is an insightful portrayal of the challenges faced by women in the 1800s. The story seen through the eyes of the heroine, Anne Elliot, gives readers an impression of the influence that nineteenth century society could have on a woman's fate, had she not the strength to resist. Anne Elliot's character changes from passive to active over the course of the novel. It is in this way that she avoids the alternative fates dramatized for her by other women in the novel and ironically, by Jane Austen herself."

Abstract
This paper examines the social roles of women and men in Jane Austen's novel "Persuasion", with particular focus on the character Anne. The paper points out that in the novel men are able to rise in social standing by working hard while women have to resort to marriage as a way to gain status in society. The paper also relates that, at first, Anne follows pre-established social roles, which stress the importance of gaining wealth and status through one's external image. The paper then explains that Anne's reliance on such superficial images comes at the cost of morality.
From the Paper
"In comparison, Anne's superficial beauty fades while Mr. Wentworth's personal qualities persist over time. Mr. Wentworth's appearance has improved over his eight-year absence, while Anne's beauty withers: "The years which had destroyed [Anne's] youth, and bloom had only given [Mr. Wentworth] a more glowing, manly, open look, in no respect lessening his personal advantages. She had seen the same Frederick Wentworth." (Austen 44) Symbolically, Mr. Wentworth's strong qualities are everlasting, while Anne's weak qualities vanish. Mr. Wentworth embodies a "strong mind, with sweetness of manner", while Anne's qualities and ideals are easily shaped by the influence of others (Austen 45)."

Lady Murasaki's "Court Diary", 2005.
This paper reviews Lady Murasaki's "Court Diary", a lady in waiting in the court of the Japanese court from 1007 to 1010 A.D., which discusses the social and cultural influence of Confucianism and Buddhism on ancient Japan.

Abstract
This paper explains that Lady Murasaki wrote her "Court Diary during the period in which Bushido was a code and way of life for Samurai men and was influenced by Zen and Confucianism. The author points out that in Lady Murasaki's "Court Diary", it is obvious that Buddhism and Buddhist metaphysics are very much a part of Japanese court life; however, what is not so obvious is that Chinese Confucianism also had become part of 10th century Japan's Imperial court. The paper relates that the notion of impermanence is an extremely salient characteristic throughout the Diary; she writes that all things are ephemeral, reflecting on the aesthetics of the period, which were based on the beauty of impermanence.
From the Paper
"Confucianism influenced the Chinese attitude toward life, set the patterns of living and standards of social value, and provided the background for Chinese political theories and institutions. It eventually spread from China to Korea, from Korea to Japan where it was first brought to around the fifth century. Confucius had a great impact on the Japanese civilization. His teachings relating to ethics, honor, social responsibility, familial obligations, ancestor worship, and observation of rites and historical precedence provide the glue that gives the Japanese civilization continuity and durability."

Abstract
"There can be little question that William Byrd was one of America earliest writers and in later generations one of its most controversial. The following paper examines the secret diary of William Byrd of Westover as it was written in the period 1709-12. Specifically, the paper examines the text in light of his own situation during these years--he was still a relatively young man at the time--as well as what factors might have prompted him to write as he did. Beyond that, the paper briefly catalogues the major themes of Byrd's diary, the literary style employed and a key issue raised by the diary entries. In the end, it is fair to conclude that Byrd's writings are a window into the attitudes informing the actions of eighteenth century country gentlemen.

Abstract
This paper examines how Anne Elliot, the protagonist of "Persuasion" is, like most Austen heroines, witty, clever and considerate. It also shows how Anne is feminine while possessing none of what Austen clearly sees as the negative characteristics of her gender.
From the Paper
"At first Anne Elliot seems an unlikely heroine in contrast to Emma and Elizabeth. She is not venerated or held in any special position by her own family. She is seen as inferior and is unable to persuade them or advice them. They generally view her as extra luggage and her sister prefers the opinion and company of Mrs Clay instead. In contrast to Emma who is held in high esteem by her father and by everyone who is acquainted with her. Elizabeth too is held in high esteem by her family and is the central figure in her environment. Both Emma and Elizabeth are consulted before any important decisions are taken by their families. "
