The Perils Of Indifference By Niemoller

( Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1774) When he does not meet Charlotte, he always writes pessimistic things in the letter. He can not find the real meaning of life, especially when he finds that there are many limit in life , he feels upset and pessimistic. He can not accept present world and he says: ” I examine my own being, and find there a world, but a world rather of imagination and dim desires, than of distinctness and living power. Then everything swims before my senses, and I smile and dream while pursuing my way through the world. ” ( Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1774) When he tries to get away from his love to Charlotte, selfish and hypocrisy people make him feel more

Chris uses pathos by providing examples of Chris’ troubled family life. For example, after finding out about his father’s affair, Chris felt as if he could only trust Carine. This is evident as Chris sent her a letter saying, “Anyway, I like to talk to you about this because you are the only person in the world who could possibly understand what I am saying” (Krakauer 129). This appeals to our emotions as Krakauer makes us empathize with Chris: he feels as if no one understands him, so he thus ignores his family. Chris was not only socially isolated, but he was also physically isolated from everyone he loved.

Secondly, the poem “I Can Stand Him No Longer” also incorporates and develops the thematic topic of guiltiness all along. In the poem, the man states “A heavy conscience will always make what’s hidden revealed” In this situation, the man means to say that a strong feeling, in this case, guilt, can make what 's hidden revealed to everyone. So, the author uses an Oxymoron which in this case, is “conscience” to convey to the reader that there is a deeper level of truth in this sentence. And that by saying “conscience,” the author does not mean any random feeling but instead, is trying to signal the reader that the man is referring to the specific feeling of guiltiness.

In the novel, Equality 7-2521 learned that to be your own person you must first stop trying to be like someone else. Exemplifying a theme of Anthem where individuality breaks through teaches Equality a big lesson. Brothers stick together and help each other but are not supposed to be exactly like one another. In this novel it tried to make everyone the same and as one, rather than as individuals. The quote “To be a free, a man must be free of his brothers” (chapter 1 page 1) exemplifies a theme by saying that not everyone has to be the same.

In the poem, “The Hangman” by Maurice Ogden, and the poem, “First They Came for…” by Pastor Martin Niemӫller, the similarities between the themes of these poems focus upon not being a bystander and helping others along with the negative diction utilized to maintain the suspense. Furthermore, the overall theme being concluded amongst these two poems are that everyone shouldn’t just watch injustice, rather they should stand up for right things. For instance, towards the end of the “First They Came for…”, the Niemӫller exclaims that,”... they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me”(Niemӫller lines 7-8). To elaborate, the narrator stood there watching everyone die and he didn’t utter a single word, however when the people went after

For example, he begins two sentences in a row with the word “gratitude” to express his feelings towards the American soldiers who liberated the concentration camp. Wiesel also started three sentences in a row with the word “indifference.” The use of anaphora cleared up his belief that indifference must not be tolerated. Epistrophe was present as well; “You fight it. You denounce it.

Wiesel subtly influences his audience to feel the agony that he felt during the events of the Holocaust, and the pain that he still feels today over losing so many important people in his life. This is due to his use of pathos throughout the speech, and he addresses that, “No one may speak for the dead, no one may interpret their mutilated dreams and visions.” Wiesel understands that his speech can only honor the individuals who lost their lives in the torturous concentration camps, but he can’t speak on their behalf. He goes on to say that he still feels the presence of the people he lost, “The presence of my parents, that of my little sister.

James Shokoff wrote a literary criticism over my poem Ode on a Grecian Urn. Shokoff is a journalist, and strongly discusses his opinion on the poem in Soul-Making in ‘Ode on a Grecian Urn. Shokoff believes that the question he does not have answered in the poem remains an unsolved mystery. Shokoff agrees with my thesis that symbolism and identification is not a weakness of the poem, but shows great significance. In this criticism the main question is, is the “beauty-truth identification a consistent, meaningful conclusion to the poem” (Shokoff)?

"The Poet’s Occasional Alternative" by Grace Paley and ‘In My Craft or Sullen Art’ by Dylan Thomas are poems which portrays writing as an arduous and under-appreciated form of art. In "The Poet’s Occasional Alternative", the speaker’s disillusionment with the poor reception of his poetry is exacerbated by the contrasting attention his pie receives, while the speaker in ‘In My Craft or Sullen Art’ reveals his motivations for persevering in his writing despite the lack of attention it receives. Both poems illustrate how the act of writing receives little attention from the masses and is thus an unappreciated form of art. In "The Poet’s Occasional Alternative”, the speaker likens the process of writing poetry to that of making a pie with starkly different results. The pie is described to “already” have a “tumbling audience”, and these expressions show how the pie is able to garner a substantial and excited following with ease, even from “small trucks” which are inanimate objects, presumably toys.

Wiesel used pregnant pauses to emphasize the point he was trying to make. In his speech “Perils of Indifference”, Wiesel claimed that people ignoring terrible events occurring in the world around them are the worst. Wiesel used his speech “Perils of Indifference” to create awareness about how to be indifferent is worse than to be the enemy through his use of credibility and persona. Wiesel

Antwone suffers from displacement and repression, and he also deny a lot about his pass experiences. With that being said, my treatment recommendation for Antwone is the psychoanalytic theory. Antwone denies and bottles up all the anger that he has from his pass without realizing that it is causing him more harm. He refused to talk about these issues because he thought that he does not have an issues. With all the anger bottled up, he tends to displace them by lashing out on his co-workers.

One day Jose Michard Teixeira responded to a writing prompt about patience. Teixeira doesn’t have patience for things like having feeling for people that doesn’t have his best interest in heart. He doesn’t feel like being used anymore. If I was him I would agree with him. I think that almost everybody had a time that a friend was disloyal to him or her once or that you don’t want to be nice anymore because you always have a negative response when you try to reach out.

In I Am Malala, Yousafzai references a poem by Martin Niemoller that reads “Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak out because I was not a Jew... Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me” (140). All along, the author had power within him to defend the groups being persecuted, but either neglected or was unaware of the influence he could impose. If he had seen the importance of fighting for others, he would have helped the persecuted and in turn those people would be willing to return the favor and aid him when he needed support. In “Hangman”, as the narrator is taking his turn at the gallows he is asked “Where are the others that might have stood side by your side in the common good?”

One way that people respond to systems of oppression is by being a bystander. A bystander is a person who witnesses an oppressor harassing a victim but does nothing about it because it does not affect that person or so they think that it does not affect them. One of the poems that talk about bystanders is ' First They Came For ' by Martin Niemoller. The poem takes place in Germany, during WW 2.
