<<The first publication ever of any part of Anne Frank’s Diary>> <<appearing a full year before the first trade edition of June, 1947. >> Via her diary, Anne Frank is universally identified as the single representative of the millions of Jews who suffered and were killed by Nazi Germany. Simon Wiesenthal’s view of the diary is that it has raised more widespread awareness of the Holocaust than had even been achieved by the Nuremberg Trials. As a result of its universal appeal, the diary is one of the key historical texts of the 20th-century and has sold more than 25 million copies, translated into more than 50 languages. See B. Kirshenblatt-Gimblett & Jeffrey Shandler, Anne Frank Unbound: Media, Imagination, Memory (2012).
