Hi,

The word 'anew' is used to show that you are starting again to do something having previously stopped doing it. For example you may have started to read a complicated book and then decided it is too difficult to understand and you stop reading it.. Possibly some weeks later you want to continue reading the book and in that case you start anew.

Hope this helps

Alan
