Exploring Anne Frank and Difficult Life Stories
Kumpf Baele, Kirsten
Exploring Anne Frank and Difficult Life Stories - Taylor & Francis Routledge [Imprint] 2024 - 1 online resource - Literary Criticism and Cultural Theory .
Free-to-read
This volume, grounded in the Diary of a Young Girl and its continued appeal to readers of all ages, sees both promise in the relevance of Anne Frank's story in the twenty‑first century, and potential for new ways of teaching her story and those of other genocides and human right violations. Engaging Anne Frank with these other cases clarifies the distinct nature of the Holocaust, and we build on the fact that the diary touches areas of deep interest, especially to young people, and that it has been read as a monument to resisting hate, which is itself a prerequisite for educating citizens of more diverse and inclusive societies. The diverse contributions and viewpoints in this volume illustrate how rich the ongoing engagement with Anne Frank and her legacy remain.
