Why and how has Anne Frank been identified as an icon of victimhood in the Holocaust to be remembered and mourned? This paper aims at understanding the workings of gendered and racialized idioms of remembrance and memorialization in turning Anne Frank into an icon. The paper states that in order for Anne Frank to be appropriated into the master narrative of the Holocaust, her representations have been subjected to de-sexualization, de-Judaization, feminization, and infantilization. The paper tracks down these four gendered and racialized idioms in various reprentational modes of Anne Frank; the different editions of her diary, photographs and artworks used on the cover of the dairies, theatre plays and movies. And finally, the paper draws attention to the pitfalls of using gendered and racialized idioms to remember and mourn Anne Frank: her de-sexualized, de-Judaized, feminized and infantilized representations silence her particularities (her age, gender and race) that made her a target of murderous regime of the Nazi in the first place.
