Adolescência e feminilidade no Anexo Secreto

Resumo

This paper focuses on adolescence development under difficult circumstances, the practice of a genocide. It analyses Anne Frank’s writings as forms of self-expression, according especially to Simmel and Foucault. The Secret Annex, her refuge, is a heterotopia or no place. Furthermore, this paper questions genocides as biopower
since several millennia. In the context of power relations in her hideout, Anne achieves individuality, develops herself as a protagonist, and reaches her subjectivity. She interrelates the search for new femininities, political reflections and a rigorous self-criticism, leading her to continuous rethinking.
