The book ”Tangerine” by Edward Bloor seems to have one common theme throughout the book; “the truth will set you free”. There are three examples in this book that seem to clearly exemplify the point being made. Here’s how I beleive this theme is exemplified in the book. The first example is represented though the character Antoine, followed by Paul Fisher’s family dynamics, as well as Paul Fisher himself.
The small town of Sighet, also known as Sighetu Marmatiei, is located today in Transylvania, Romania. Through the years, Sighet has had strong ties to the Jewish religion, just as it does today. The town has been part of both Romania and Hungary at times, and has seen a decreasing number of residents since 1944. During the 1940s, anti-Jewish sentiment was at its peak, with Adolf Hitler being the face of the anti-Jewish movement. By 1944, World War I had started, and more than 14,000 Jews resided in Sighet, but by the end of May of the same year, none remained, and Sighet was comparable to a ghost town.

As Molching recovers from its first air raid, Liesel witnesses the parade of the enslaved Jews for the first time as they pass through the town on their march to a labour camp in Dachau. Markus Zusak’s bleak depiction of the scene is emphasised by the confronting imagery, muted by the overall absence of speech and the normalised degradation of the Jews. Presented without inner thoughts, the traumas of reality are illustrated plainly on their bodies and rendered all the more devastating in its overarching theme of loss. Throughout the passage, the Jewish fate of endless dehumanisation is perpetuated by the silence of the audience in response to the soldiers’ cruelty. The passage opens on a dictionary definition for ‘misery’, establishing a
The Effects of Suffering on a 12 year Old Boy “Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars” - Khalil Gibran. Throughout Night, Elie Wiesel copes with the agony of the Holocaust first hand. Suffering by definition is the state of undergoing pain, distress, or hardship. In Wiesel’s Night, suffering forces people to make inhumane decisions, shatters hope, and destroys self identity. Suffering forces people to be put in bad places where they feel pressured to eventually make inhumane decisions.
Two stories “A Good Man is Hard to Find” and “Revelation” by Flannery O' Conner both share a similar theme. The theme most common throughout both stories is religion. The author uses racism and religion in most of her stories and characters all seem to have similar personality traits. A few comparisons between “Revelation” and “A Good Man is Hard to Find” is that both these stories start off quick and to the point. These two stories contain a strong sense of superiority of their characters.
Anne Frank/Night Theme Essay FINAL Draft The book Night is about Elie, a Jewish boy that was sent to a concentration camp, and how he manages to live in the concentration camp. In the book, the reader will notice there will be an extraordinary amount of reasons why and how Elie and his father have a close relationship within the 11-month period they are in buna (A section of Auschwitz Concentration camp). Despite this poor quality of living, he and his father maintained a close relationship. In Auschwitz, prisoners got around 100 calories to eat a day, and most of the prisoners were moving dirt or something related to labor for the whole day.
A theme from Elie Wiesel’s memoir “Night” is losing faith in god. I think that this is a theme that presents itself throughout the book. Elie shares his story of being brave and persevering through the holocaust. Elie bears witness to the horrifying events and showed a clear representation of what a jew would be going through during WWII.

Alexander the Great’s inexorable ten year conquest of the Persian Empire was a conquest motivated by a number of reasons; finance, revenge, opportunity, expansion and personal zealotry being amongst those debated by modern historians. In his attempts to garner Greek support for the conquest, Alexander veiled his true motivations under the guise of nationalistic revenge. In truth however, Alexander's reasons for the invasion of the Persian Empire lay in financial necessity, territorial expansion, his desire to stand up to his mythological and biological ancestry and the opportunity presented by the relatively weakened state of the Persian empire. 1. Revenge for the Persian invasions of Greece (281)
