Una recopilación magistral que contextualiza la importancia que tuvo la escritura para la supervivencia física y espiritual de Anne Frank, y talla sus palabras en la memoria.

El Diario de Anne Frank es una de las lecturas más conocidas sobre la Segunda Guerra Mundial y, gracias a él, la memoria de su protagonista sigue más vigente que nunca. Cientos de miles de personas visitan cada año el museo de la Casa de Anne Frank, en Ámsterdam, para ver dónde la niña y su familia se escondieron de las fuerzas de la ocupación alemana hasta que fueron enviados a Auschwitz en 1944. El único miembro de la familia que sobrevivió al Holocausto fue el padre de Anne, Otto Frank.

Estas Obras completas reúnen diversas versiones del diario de Anne, incluida la canónica, editada por la traductora y autora Mirjam Pressler, además de material inédito como cartas, reflexiones, ensayos o las citas favoritas de su protagonista. Este volumen también contiene textos de reputados historiadores sobre asuntos como «La vida de Anne Frank», «La historia de la familia de Anne Frank» y «La historia de la recepción del diario», así como numerosas fotografías de los Frank y del resto de habitantes del escondite.

Para conmemorar el 75 aniversario de la primera publicación del Diario, Plaza & Janés brinda a los lectores esta recopilación de los escritos de la joven, con el apoyo del Fondo Anne Frank, que su padre, Otto, estableció para salvaguardar el legado de su hija. Una lectura esencial tanto para los expertos como para el gran público ya que recoge, por primera vez, todos los escritos de Anne Frank además de material adicional que ofrecerá una profundidad nueva a su lectura.
 
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
 
A masterful compilation that contextualizes the importance of writing for the physical and spiritual survival of Anne Frank, a book that carves her words in memory.
 
Anne Frank' Diary is one of the most recognized and widely read books of the Second World War. Thousands of people visit the Anne Frank House on the Prinsengracht in Amsterdam each year to see the annex where Anne and her family hid from the Germans before eventually being deported to Auschwitz in 1944. Only Anne's father, Otto, survived the Holocaust.

Anne Frank: The Collected Works brings together different versions of Anne's world-famous diary, including the canonical version edited by translator and author Mirjam Pressler, together with material never published before, like letters, essays. The Collected Works includes Anne Frank's complete writings, together with important images and documents that tell the wider story of her life. Also included are background essays by notable historians and scholars-- "Anne Frank's Life"; "The History of the Frank Family", "the Publication History of Anne Frank's diary" --and photographs of the Franks and the other occupants of the annex.
 
Supported by the Anne Frank Foundation in Basel, Switzerland, set up by Otto Frank to be the guardian of Anne's work, this is a landmark publication marking the 75th anniversary of the first publication of her diary. An essential book for scholars and general readers alike.

Anne Frank

Anne Frank was born in Frankfurt am Maine in Germany in 1929. She is the author of The Diary of a Young Girl, which tells the remarkable true-story of a young, Jewish girl against the backdrop of the horrors of the Second World War. Adolescent preoccupations and emotions are recorded alongside the growing powers of the Nazis and their imposition of Anti-Jewish Laws to create a compelling, poignant insight into family life under Nazi rule.

Anne Frank moved to Holland with her family when the Nazis became powerful in Germany. The Nazis believed that some races, such as Jews and gypsies did not deserve the right to live and they started to arrest, transport and kill them. Afraid for their lives, Anne and her family went into hiding. During the terrible time in hiding, Anne was growing from a young girl into a woman and she recorded her thoughts and experiences in a diary: the constant fear of discovery, the conflicts with her mother, her emerging sexuality, and her hopes for the future.

As the diary progresses, Anne's childish innocence is replaced by premature wisdom and reflection; she not only expresses her concerns with their personal sufferings but also political events unfolding far from their hiding place. The family hid in the Secret Annexe at the back of a warehouse from July 1942, but ultimately the work of their protectors was undermined by the actions of Nazi collaborators and spies. In August 1944, they were discovered and taken to concentration camps.

Anne died of typhus in 1945, imprisoned at Bergen-Belsen, just a few months before her sixteenth birthday. Her diary, written between 12 June 1942 and 1 August 1944, was found after the war and later published by her father Otto H. Frank, the only surviving member of the family. It has become a bestseller throughout the world and is an extraordinary piece of writing from such a young girl, detailing her emotional transformation from childhood to adolescence and reminding us of the horror of prejudice and persecution.
