Why Night Should Be A Required Reading Night by Elie Wiesel is a book about a young Jewish boy living through World War II, and how he was forced to survive in the concentration camps. There were many forms of torture and abuse happening in these camps, and Night is a book that shows how intense life really was. For many reasons, Night by Elie Wiesel should be a required high school reading. It is a nonfiction book that teaches the importance of learning the brutal acts that were carried out in history, and implies many reasons why the world should never have to see that experience again.
This book is very important because it teaches the reader things they didn’t know well or proves to them that they are wrong if they believed that the Holocaust was not harmful. No one had the right to treat these people in that way and no one has the right to ban this book because this will be censorship. Night also shows the truth about the Holocaust and teaches us that this period in history should be prevented from happening
I feel like the book “night” is similar to the other books I have read about the holocaust. So far, the mood is very depressing in the book it’s constantly talking about death and everyone in the camp sound very depressed. I mean, I would be too if I was in a concentration camp but I think the author is over exaggerating it and focussing on that mood too much. The feelings the character Elie has are hopeful like he expects something to suddenly happen and he's free.
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” -- George Santayana. The Holocaust was one of the most tragic events in human history, with the mass killings of about six million Jews during World War II. To help prevent an event like this from happening again, schools and educational centers have started teaching people about the Holocaust to not only learn from our mistakes and grow from them, but to honor the millions and millions of Jews lost and affected by the Holocaust. Night is an autobiography written by a Holocaust survivor named Eliezer Wiesel and is taught in many schools worldwide to help remind students of the events and teach them why and how it happened.
I chose to write about “Night” because it is the book I have recently read and it is the book that has stuck to my head. Overall this book is about what pain, suffering, and depressing times Eliezer and his fellow jews were put through while Hitler was their dictator. No soul on this earth should have to go through what the jews had to go through ever
Who’s to Blame for? In the book Night, written by Elie Wiesel, he expresses how while he was suffering along with many other Jews, those safe in Germany did nothing to help or fight back. Jews were forgotten as humans and left to survive by themselves. During Elie Wiesel’s Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance Speech, he expressed a clear central idea to his audience. That is, we as people must be held accountable for the massacre that has happened.
The book “Night” was good because of the background story and how real it all was. “Night” was from a real person who lived through the pain and the heartache and all that went on. The background story was amazing because you knew it was real and not made up. The realization that the Jews went through all of the pain and anguish that happened in the camp is sometimes unbelievable.
Are you beginning to feel nauseated and suffocated yet? This was just the start of the inhumanity inflicted upon the Jewish people by the Nazis. “The Night” is a startling, autobiographical novel by Elie Wiesel. The novel recounts the story of a young Elie Wiesel who was taken to the infamous Auschwitz concentration camp in Germany and lives to tell the story. The story is about blind prejudice, unimaginable
Night vividly describes the monstrous lengths the nazis went through to dehumanize the jewish people. Dehumanization was the largest problem faced during the holocaust; there are many ways the Nazis achieved dehumanization of the jewish people. In the very start of night we
The memoir entitled “Night” is the story of the fight for survival. It’s Elie Wiesel’s story of his fight to survive along with his fellow Jews in the Auschwitz and Buchenwald concentration camps. Elie’s personal account of this story is both heart wrenching and effective. Hearing Elie’s personal anguish brings the story to life. It’s the story of how people can survive with the barest of means.
My mom used to tell me “If kids don’t learn about topics in history then they will never understand the true meaning of it.” In Elie Wiesel’s book “Night” he talks about the many brutal things that were happening in concentration camps at the time of World War I. The Nazi’s were inflamed by the fact that the Jew’s were still alive. As a result, many people think that this book should be banned in schools because it’s either too violent or it can send out a bad message to kids, but it shouldn’t be banned. When reading Night I felt a connection with Elie Wiesel that made me think about the Holocaust more.
Night is told from the first person perspective of a twelve year old Jewish boy. In Night, Jews were discriminated against, captured and sent to concentration camps. Families were separated, women and children were killed and men played a game of survival of the fittest, in hopes of seeing better days. The “strongest” got to stay alive and were moved to another concentration campus, which might have been worse than the last, while the weaker ones were killed. Justice was presented at the advantage of the stronger in this novel because eventually Eliezer, the narrator was freed and able to account the horrible story of previous happenings.
Night is a memoir of a Jewish boy who lives to see the horrors during the Holocaust. He tells an emotional tale of his scarring experiences at multiple concentration camps. He begins with his family in his hometown of Sighet, where they are forced into supervised ghettos. The authorities then begin shipping the Jews into concentration camps, in which he is separated from his mother and sister. He and his dad are then forced to Auschwitz, where they begin their series of struggles.
Night is the most beautiful book i have ever read while being educational and interesting, and in the following lines you’ll learn exactly why. I’ve always knew about life being hard in concentration camps but “Night” smack the readers with the reality of it all. After reading this i’ve learned that all jewish men and women sent to work camps had tattoos with their numbers, so not only were they treated awfully but their names were also completely neglected. So when calling them they would not say things like “hey Roger how was your day” but instead “45567 fetch me a cup of water”. I think that this was a complete violation of rights.
Night is a powerful, first person account of the tragic horrors of the Holocaust written and endured by Elie Wiesel. In this dark literary piece, Wiesel's first hand tale of the atrocities and horrors endured in World War II concentration camps will leave an unforgettable, dark, macabre impression amongst readers that cannot be done with a simple listing of statistics. This tale of human perserverance and the dark side of human nature will cause readers to question their own humanity. Also, it will paint a vivid picture of the vile deeds that mankind is capable of expressing. Reading this book will leave a long lasting impression that is definitely not something that will be soon forgotten.
