Structural analysis of the text
Diary writing follows the flow of the writer’s thoughts. It is usually “structured” by the author’s free associations.
1. What do the three entries of the diary have in common?
Two thematic topics in common, the horrible scenes of the war and the writer’s strong love for, and emotional attachment to his family.
2. How are the particular situations related to the common thematic topics?
Firstly, the writer describes his thought and fear under German air raids, which led him to speculate about the difficulties and problems of his family.
Secondly, the writer describes his reflections on the justification of wars. The sight of a te
enage girl and the grim condition in a small European town made him recall his dear daughters and family.
Thirdly, it was dated on Christmas Eve and about the approaching death. The writer’s only wish was that someone could return the diary to his family.
