Laureen Nussbaum (born Hannelore Klein),〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://oregonstate.edu/holocaust/sites/default/files/2014/hmw2014schedr2.pdf )〕 is a Dutch historian and writer. She is best known for being a Holocaust survivor, a Holocaust educator and for being a childhood friend of the famed memorist Anne Frank. Nussbaum is frequently consulted on Anne Frank works and literature. Along with teaching for many years at Portland State University, Nussbaum travels to lecture on the Holocaust, Jewish academia, Anne Frank and her experience during World War II.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pdx.edu/syndication/lecture-laureen-nussbaum-legacy-anne-frank )〕 While at Portland State, she also became the head of the German department. Nussbaums publications on those subjects, as well as the German language and German literature, are often referenced in academia. ==Friendship with Anne Frank== As Germany became increasingly hostile toward Jews, Nussbaum's family moved from Frankfurt to Amsterdam in 1936. In her new neighborhood, Nussbaum met Anne Frank.〔 Nussbaum's family and the Frank family had been friends in Frankfurt, though Nussbaum had not known the Frank children at that time. Nussbaum became closest to Anne's sister Margot. While growing up together, Nussbaum remembers Anne as "vivacious and smart", though the two were not particularly close. In fact, Nussbaum was "rather indifferent" about Anne, considering her a "noisy chatterbox" and "a shrimp". Anne wrote about Nussbaum in her diary The Diary of a Young Girl, referring to her as "Hansi", short for Nussbaum's given name of Hannelore.〔 After Anne and most of her family were killed, Nussbaum remained close to Otto Frank, Anne's father and the only surviving member of Anne's immediate family. Otto was the best man at Nussbaum's wedding to Rudi. Nussbaum has written about the fact that different version's of Frank's diary have been released, some with pages missing and some with only passages removed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.annefrank.org/en/Anne-Frank/A-diary-as-a-best-friend/At-last-seriously-taken-as-a-writer/ )〕 Otto has been criticized in the media for the way in which the manuscripts have been handled, with Nussbaum commenting "He was headstrong and misled people on the content." She also stated "Otto should be congratulated for probably being the first to publish a document from the Holocaust." Of the memory that she keeps of Anne, Nussbaum stated in 1995 "Memory easily fools you and my memory is coloured, inevitably, by the fact that she has become so famous. I always found her lively and keen, but would never have thought she would turn into this icon. I am afraid the icon has become, for some people, a source of income and the person Anne is obscured by this. She stands as a symbolic figure upon whom the world can heap both its guilt and its commiseration." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Laureen Nussbaum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
