Decent Essays
Maybe we'll never know. All we know of this mysterious women is the ramblings in her diary.

What we do know are fleeting facts, the writing of a young cluttered mind. Though her name is unknown, there are still little facts that could piece together her identity. She was a young women who's life was forever changed when the Nazi's started to occupy her country, France. The Mystery Maiden felt so much anger and resentment about the occupation; when her boyfriend, Charles who was a part of the French Resistance, asked her to help him infiltrate a Nazi Lieutenant house she said agreed. So, on April 1, 1944

    She was Dutch woman of German-Jewish origin and was youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. Frank. In her work of the written diary, she is unambiguously precocious, charming and intelligent, and retained her cheerfulness and even during most testing and difficult of circumstances. Over the course of two years, she is transformed from spoiled and naive girl of thirteen into thoughtful and self-aware woman of fifteen. She did not have sufficient political acumen and knowledge, but becomes inquisitive to the length of asking the reasons and logic about anti-Semitism. While whole point of war does not make any sense to her at all.…

    Medieval era music ranges from the years 450 to 1400. Notable composers during this time period include Guillaume de Machaut, Bernart de Ventadorn, as well as Comtessa de Dia. Although all were brilliant composers in their own ways, Comtessa de Dia has both a tremendous social and religious impact with the way Comtessa de Dia was a troubadour, later known as “trobairitz,” in the late 12th and early 13th century. Not much is known about her personal life except scholars speculate that she was the daughter of Count Isoard II of Dia, which was “a town on the Drôme in the marquisate of Provence” (Aubrey 2004). Luckily, however, five of her works survived, the most notable one being “A chantar m'er de so qu'eu no volria.”…

    Human beings are made up of an array of qualities. Dehumanization is the process of depriving humans of their qualities, to make them feel and/or behave like they are less than what they are. Humans are capable of recalling memories, and many times, incapable of forgetting them because some experiences can make them unrecognizable. In Night by Elie Wiesel, the Nazis dehumanized the Jewish people through too many traumatic ways that leave them with nothing but suffer and numbness. Nazi methods physically, emotionally, and mentally torment these innocent people.…

She used her artistic capabilities to produce cinematic masterpieces portraying numerous Nazi ideologies. Riefenstahl also greatly impacted Nazi propaganda as she used eye witness accounts to reinforce Nazi's held opinions and Hitler's totalitarian ideologies which distorted reality with the partial truth and glorified the 'master race'.

    In mainstream culture, children tend to focus on school and recreation, while politics has often been a subject that is present in the conversations of adults. In Nazi Germany, however, the social and political ideologies of Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP) was entrenched in the lives of millions of German youth, evidently by design. In his autobiographical book, “Destined to Witness: Growing Up Black in Nazi Germany”, Hans J. Massaquoi provides a unique perspective to the typical prototype of a German youth. As a mixed-race, German boy growing up in one of the most politically-instilled cultures in modern history, he was neither accepted by the Nazi regime, nor persecuted to Nazi Germany’s fullest extent.…
