Inhumanity In Night By Elie Wiesel

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.

This deteriorates an individual's emotional well being and will to live which leads to an unjustified faith. Elie’s identity has been reshaped by the sensation of feeling meaningless because his name is accustomed around his personality which defines one’s identity. Thus without a name, Eliezer has no individual personality or identity. Auschwitz is eminent for their impeccable lifestyle and cold-blooded soldiers. The barbarous SS men are domineering towards the Jewish captives throughout their eerie threats and actions, as demonstrated in the following quotation, “From time to time, a shot exploded in the darkness.

Mental dehumanization was the stage in which saddened me the most. An example was when Wiesel and all the jewish prisoners in Bruna had assembled on the Appelplatz on the eve of Rosh Hashanah, his thoughts were, “Why, but why would I bless Him? Every fiber in me rebelled. Because he caused thousands of children to burn in His mass graves?” (Wiesel 67). Elie Wiesel was very religious before he

Elie Wiesel’s somber speech, “The Perils of Indifference”, demonstrated the harsh reality of the numerous evils harvesting in the world. The main evil though was simply indifference, or a lack of concern. As a young Jewish boy, he faced the wickedness of the Holocaust, imprisoned at Buchenwald and Auschwitz and also losing both his parents and younger sister. The speaker saw atrocious horrors and suffered for a prolonged amount of time. Why was this permitted?

When Mr. Matthews was younger he went through the same treatment that Cole is treated with. Beating. This type of abuse taught Mr. Matthews that it is right to beat your child with all you have got and it is right to be angry. Even when you are in a meeting. When Cole and his family were meeting with the whole community Mr. Matthews was angry.

Clearly not even one person had the intention of stopping the maltreatment of Buck. “This was the first time Buck had failed, in itself a sufficient reason to drive Hal into a rage. He exchanged the whip for a customary club. Buck refused to move under the rain of heavier blows which now fell upon him.”(P55) Hal was beating Buck senseless, because the poor limp animal was famished and fatigued. At the fault of Hal and the family’s ignorance, the sled team would not be almost dead in the first place.

The prisoners of the concentration camps are constantly tortured and neglected by the German officers who run the camps. The cruelty of the German officers at the concentration camps change Elie’s personality throughout the novel. At the beginning of the novel, Elie is deeply religious and spends most of his time studying Judaism. However, by the end of the novel, Elie believes that God has been unjust to him and all the other Jews, and has lost most of his faith. The cruelty of the German officers also changed the other Jews as well.

What he expected as a teacher was to be respected and powerful. However, he was ridiculed by his own students that did neither, while evening referring to him as the ‘Goose’ which represents a jerk and mocked his physical appearance (Andrei Chikatilo's Childhood par 4). Further jealously of his student’s sexual and love lives, irritated Chikatilo to react in a physically abusive way towards his pupils to express his control over them. Nevertheless, he was able to find jobs at other schools, continuing his abuse as no concrete punishment was ever given (Serial Killer A-Z: Andrei Chikatilo par 2). Chikatilo is not alone in abusing authoritative power on people who depend on him as this is a problem in every society.

Therefor, Griffen is the man and society does not like him. Theme - What is the moral of the story or the lesson learned? The theme of the story Killing Mr. Griffen is just because some one is mean you dont have to do something bad back. I find this the theme because Mr. griffen is mean to all of his students so then his students gang up on him and kidnap him. Tone - What was the author’s attitude toward the subject in the novel?

People chose to believe that Hitler was conceived through evil and that is due to the ignorance and lack of knowledge that generations have been subsided to. Humans are not born evil, it is the matter of the environment in which they grow up in that causes their person to change. Adolf Hitler is branded with the uprising of the Holocaust and this gives much of the world the belief that he was evil and that he killed millions of people. During this time period, parents practiced the act of ‘child-rearing.’ This is a form of punishment in which the parent, usually the father, physically abuses the child of his/her feelings, thoughts, and creativity. The purpose of this punishment was for absolute obedience to the ‘master plan.’ There were specific

They even hang small child. Because of the horrific conditions in the camps, many of the prisoners begin to slide into cruelty, concerned only with personal survival. Sons begin to abandon and abuse their fathers. Elie himself begins to lose his humanity and his faith in God and in the

During 1944, Elie Wiesel was forced from his home to undertake a great trial, known by many as the Holocaust. After the grueling meat grinder, known by some as the Shoah, he had survived, and was able to write his experiences years after the event. In short, Wiesel wrote Night to remind people of the horrors and conditions he had experienced within the concentration camps. Years after the Holocaust occurs, Wiesel shows the harsh treatment on him and his peers, enforced by the Schutzstaffel, such as working with great starvation and tiredness. The writing reveals the feelings of oppressed; starved; weakening men under the rule of fascist Nazis.

Dally is seen as a heartless cold, thug and throughout the novel Ponyboy sees that he truly has a heart. Dally is a trouble-maker and he has no space in his heart except for hate and regret. Ponyboy describes Dally as a thug by saying, “He was tougher than the rest of us tougher, colder, meaner. The shade of difference that separates a greaser from a hood wasn’t present in Dally”(S.E Hinton, pg 10) As ponyboys grow up as a greaser he can see the difference between a greaser and a hood. Throughout Dally’s action, he shows that he is heartless and that he will not care if someone gets hurt.
