One Choice In Elie Wiesel's The Brave

886 Words4 Pages

One Choice decides your friends, One Choice defines your beliefs, One Choice determines your loyalties – forever, One Choice can transform you! This is what Beatrice Prior has to think about before the ceremony. The place where she has to decide what way she wants to go. Abnegation – The Selfless, Amity- The Peaceful Candor- The Honest, Erudite- The Intelligent and Dauntless- The Brave. Her Aptitude test that is supposed to help her with her decision makes her even more confused. She is divergent and doesn’t really fit into any of the factions. Even worse… she is a jeopardy to the government. She knows that she doesn’t fit into Abnegation, her own faction. After she decides to go with dauntless she has to prove that she fits into the faction. Everybody only sees her as the weak, helpless Stiff. On the way Tris makes …show more content…

I think her mom is visiting her because she knows that Tris is divergent. She is also really nice and just wants to encourage her daughter to fight for a place in her new faction and show her that she isn’t angry for transferring. But she is also there to tell Tris to contact her brother Caleb about the serum. Why does her mom know so much about the Dauntless and their initiation methods? Like Tris thinks too, I think that her Mom was a dauntless when she was younger. But it also could be because she is married to an important Abnegation leader. Maybe she also know more about the initiations from the other factions because her husband works for the government. Why is Eric so afraid of the Divergent? I think he is scared because they could intervene his war plans with the Erudite. Tris says herself: ‘’ He would kill me if he knew what I was.’’ (Tris, 22) The Divergent must be something special if Eric, the mean and ruthless dauntless leader and Jeanine are so interested in killing them. So I really think that the Divergent could save the factions and stop the

  • Accountability In Elie Wiesel's Night

    1101 Words  | 5 Pages

    As a child, one is oftentimes told to put thought into one’s actions to avoid the predictable, unpleasant consequences of a hasty performance. During an individual’s youth, the value of accountability is tremendously emphasized by one’s parents and educators. Children are taught that they must be held responsible for their actions, and, as they age and grow into mature individuals, they take on accountability for others. Being responsible means having a duty or an obligation to diligently fulfill a certain task, and as an individual matures, his or her obligations begin to encompass not only the responsibility one has for oneself, but also social accountability. Nevertheless, when one is faced with demanding obstacles, one’s sense of obligation to others may become compromised.

    I learned a lot of new information while reading Night, there were many things I didn’t know about the Holocaust before that I know about now. I never knew much about the conditions of the camps or how the people were treated there, I just knew that they were dreadful places. Now I can have an image of the camps in my head, what it looked like for the people who had to live in these horrendous camps. They committed so many execrable acts on people, they performed experiments on people, murdered whoever they wanted, starved people and many more gruesome things. I didn’t realize how bad the conditions really were and how badly the people were treated.
