How Is The Story Told In Night By Elie Wiesel

Night: Dehumanization “He was so terrible that he was no longer terrible. Only dehumanized” (F. Scott Fitzgerald).

Many Jews were taken from their homes and were killed, or were treated less than animals until death of starvation or exhaustion.

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.

And three days after he had gone, we forgot to say the Kaddish.” In this instance, Elie and his friends were forced to let go, owing their allegiances to themselves, the living, rather than the dead. Another example of abandonment presented itself when, during the train ride to Buchenwald, a man killed his own father, merely for the sake of some bread.

The Holocaust was one of the worlds most tragic incidents It killed over 6 million Jews and other people that didn’t fit in Hitler 's fantasy world.The Holocaust started in 1933 and ended in 1945 Jews were dying left and right because of what they believe in.The jews felt as if it was the end of the world for them they felt like they were never going to get out .The articles I read were very objective but 1 of them was balanced between objective and subjective that was article 1 it showed how the Holocaust was one of the worst or maybe the worst event in history but it also gave us a perspective on how the people who lived there felt and how they might of reacted.

A Russian novelist, Fyodor Dostoevski, once said:“There is only one thing that I dread; not to be worthy of my suffering” (Frankl). Suffering opens opportunities to achieve something great, ultimately adding meaning to one’s life. But if one doesn’t take that opportunity, he or she will miss out the chance to do something great and will not deem worthy of their suffering. Night by Elizer Wiesel is a historical fiction book about his experience through many different German concentration camps as a Jewish Romanian during the Holocaust. Elie loses his family, suffered through considerable hardship, and lived through the worst time in humanity.

In the past, innocent people got persecuted by the hands of other individuals because of hatred. These terrible actions started because of the pure hatred, lack of knowledge, and people didn’t fight back. Since, this happened people have lost their lives for example 9/11, Pearl Harbor, and shooting that is going on. “If we learn nothing else from this tragedy, we learn that life is short and there is no time for hate”.
