This is a task related to analyzing diary entries (presumably from The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank) from a specific date range. To complete it, you would:
Step 1: Select Two Dates
Choose two dates within 30 January 1943 – 1 April 1943. For example:
- Entry #1 date: 2 February 1943
- Entry #2 date: 15 March 1943
Step 2: Find Text Evidence
Locate quotes or details from each entry. For instance:
- Quote or detail from Entry #1 (2 February 1943): “I don't think I'll ever feel at home in this house, but that doesn't mean I hate it here.” (focus on Anne’s feelings about the hiding place)
- Quote or detail from Entry #2 (15 March 1943): “I’ve reached the point where I hardly care whether I live or die. The world will keep on turning without me, and I can’t do anything to change events anyway.” (focus on Anne’s emotional state)
Step 3: Analyze “Stays the Same” and “Changes”
- What stays the same: Themes of isolation, fear, or Anne’s introspective tone (both entries reflect her inner thoughts and struggles under hiding).
- What changes: Tone (from mild discontent to deeper despair) or focus (from adjusting to the hiding place to questioning life’s purpose).
This task falls under the subfield of Literature (Arts discipline) as it involves textual analysis of a literary work.
