Elie Wiesel Good Vs Evil

248 Words1 Page

To give one’s evil side continuing hold indicates that there is a possibility the person in question would continue to make poor choices inasmuch as he feels he is limited to the label of evil awarded to him. In other words, forgiveness should be granted to a sinner in order to give him the opportunity to change, to ensure his wellbeing in the future. What if, however, the deed has been so enmeshed in the past that the future has already been altered forever? What if the situation has reached beyond the point of repair? The Jewish nation could have progressed into something so much bigger and greater had these families not been eradicated. The future has been altered forever. Bearing that in mind, how dare we concern ourselves with the villain’s

    1219 Words  | 5 Pages

    Throughout history, humans have done many questionable things toward one another for one reason or another ranging from wealth to necessity. Perspective is extremely important when it comes to determining if something is evil or not as its effects on others can vary as can the drawbacks and/or benefits to the initiator. During the book, Night, this divide in perspective can be shown between the Jewish group, SS, and criminals as the reader is subjected to the horrors of the Holocaust through the eyes of Eliezer Wiesel and faced with the question of whether humans are inherently good or evil. The book is not the only place where this idea is explored, as in many religions this question is asked and later answered along with studies done by

  • The Reasons Of Speaking Up In Terrible Things By Elie Wiesel

    709 Words  | 3 Pages

    How much courage does it take to speak up? Elie Wiesel (a holocaust survivor) says that “…remaining silent encourages even more evil to happen”. Not speaking up in difficult times does nothing but make matters worse.

  • Good And Evil: What Do We Mean By Evil

    633 Words  | 3 Pages

    There are people who define evil as a bad vibe, and others define it as a disaster of nature. On the article, “What do we Mean by Evil” Rollo Roming says,” in centuries past, “Evil” was used to describe all manner of ills, from natural disasters to the impulse to do something wrong” He speaks about different ways that people define evil in their own point of view. A tornado destroying half of a town can be called evil done by Mother Nature, and one person robbing a bank can be called evil since crimes are what people define as evil. Dr. Jekyll shows how the evil was always inside of his mind but he never expressed it, instead, he created a monster of himself not letting people find out who was behind that monster.

  • Justice Theory In Elie Wiesel's Night

    1122 Words  | 5 Pages

    Justice is derived from the root word just, meaning agreeing to what is considered morally right or good; treating people in a way that is morally right; or reasonable or proper. However, society has become so entangled up in the power which certain individuals possess, they forget all about what is “just”. The justice theory is that justice is at the advantage of the stronger. When an individual is described or depicted as being “strong”, that individual is typically of a larger build, possesses some sort of weapon that causes them to be mighty, and is typically large in size. No matter what circumstances arise, these individuals are expected to be victorious in each battle they fight.

  • Good And Evil In John Steinbeck's East Of Eden

    1515 Words  | 7 Pages

    “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil” (Genesis 3:5). John Steinbeck’s work, East of Eden, is the one he considered to be his greatest, with all novels before leading up to it. Indeed, it grandly recounts the stories of the human race as told by the Bible, including Adam and Eve, but most prominently that of Cain and Abel. It touches upon both Steinbeck’s own family and a fictional family in a depiction of “man 's capacity for both good and evil” (Fontenrose). Joseph Fontenrose, however, criticizes Steinbeck’s message as contradictory and convoluted, with no clear relationship between good and evil.

    Schindler’s List was a movie that showed us human good and evil in two different powerful, influential men. These two characters help show us how easy it is for us to make a choice of human goodness or human evil. I would like to believe that as human beings we all want what is best for all of us as a whole. We tend to want and believe that if a situation like this were to arise again that we would stray from the large group and help the less fortunate. When it comes down to the decision they choose what will benefit the most people.
