Anica Kovačič : the Slovenian friend of Anne Frank

Blažič, Milena (author), Iseni, Arburim (author)

The article presents a qualitative analysis of an interview conducted by I. Jovanović and I. Šaponja with Anica Kovačič (née Mislej) as part of the “A Century of European Anti-Fascism” project. The Croatian newspaper Vijesnik reported as early as 1965 that Anica knew Anne Frank, met her daily in the Bergen-Belsen camp, and that the author of one of the most famous Holocaust testimonies died in the arms of her “Slovenian friend." This article sheds light on the details of Anica Mislej’s life and her friendship with Anne Frank.
