Elie Wiesel's Night: The Holocaust And The Holocaust

Families were stripped from their homes with nearly all of their possessions removed from them.After first entering the gates they weren't even allowed the cloths off their backs.Elie Wiesel introduces the theme of Dehumanization in the holocaust by reckoning event of his past life throughout the novel. Dehumanization is just one of the many acts committed by Germany that makes the holocaust one of if not the biggest crime against humanity of all time. One way the Germans were able

The Nazis deprived concentration camp inmates of their natural human rights, and of any other humanity they had left in them. Even the process of arriving at the concentration camp was dehumanizing and inhumane. First, the Jews were forced out of their homes, which is a huge part of a person's identity. Next, they were loaded onto trains where they were with way too many people for one train car. The train rides lasted up to 10 days.

Out of the two world wars, World War II is known to be the bloodiest and brutal war. The main reason this is to believed is because to the Holocaust. The Holocaust was the time period where many were persecuted for their beliefs and race. Hitler is who is to blame for the Holocaust, he is the one who organized all the horrific things done to the people who did not fall under his Master Race. Despite the many theories about the purpose of the Holocaust, the real purpose make those who weren’t members of the Master Race fear the Nazi Regime, to force them to obey the Nazi’s without question.

The researcher states, “Half of the people in the world never heard of the Holocaust” (Jeff Nesbit).lie wants it to be brought back into the public eye. Elie also wrote the book to tell about the horrors that he can recall. One most memorable moment was when Elie says, “The SS used threats of death … (Wiesel, 114). Elie mainly uses the books to tell just hoe terrible it all was for him and all other

The ghettos were a disgustingly dirty place with buildings that were too close together and rubbish everywhere. Then one night the Nazis had gone and loaded up into multiple cattle trucks, which would hold roughly eighty to one hundred people in one car, and started to transport them to Auschwitz. Once they arrived at Auschwitz, which is the main Jewish concentration camp, they were split up between males and females which separated many families. The groups were then taken to strip out of their clothes and were forced to put on the camp

Long Hours of Darkness “Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed.... Never shall I forget that nocturnal silence which deprived me, for all eternity, of the desire to live” (32). Never shall we forget the atrocious events that happened to upwards of six million Jews during the Holocaust. The Holocaust was a genocide run by Adolf Hitler to exterminate nearly a whole population of Jews and very few prisoners lived to tell their treacherous stories. Night, an autobiography that was written by Elie Wiesel, is from his perspective as a prisoner. The book focuses on Wiesel and his father experiencing the torture that the Nazis put them through, and the unspeakable events that Wiesel witnessed.

The theme of dehumanization is scattered throughout the traumatic and horrific events that the Jews endured while prisoners in Auschwitz. The novel, Night, was written by Elie Wiesel in the mid 1950’s. Night describes the concentration camps where the tyrant Nazis oppressed the Jewish citizens. Night was written in first person and recounted the horrid details and conditions as a prisoner in the concentrations camps. Wiesel began writing after a 10-year self-imposed vow of silence about the tragic Holocaust.

They both have the same purpose, they want to show the readers what it looked and felt like to be in the holocaust. They both show how much struggle there was just to survive. It shows how much it can scar someone physically, mentally, and

During the Holocaust Jews were put through horrific things you can’t even imagine would happen to another human being. Jews lives were completely changed, they had gone from happy with their family to families torn apart within a few days. The prisoners wondered how long they were going to live. They had never known what day was going to be their last. The Holocaust is a very significant event in history because of how horrible Jews lived their lives back then and where they lived their lives during that period of time.

Except, in my article I will be explaining about how the Holocaust ended and what happened to Adolf Hitler. According to “How did the Holocaust end?-Hitler’s Children” (2016) the Holocaust lasted for about 12 years, until 1945. In July 1944, Maidaneck, a camp in Poland, was liberated by the Soviets. It is also said that the Holocaust is a black mark on the 20th century history that many people wanted to forget. Again, In January 1945, another camp was liberated, Auschwitz.
