Night : A Tragic Event In Night By Elie Wiesel

In the memoir, Night by Elie Wiesel begins in his hometown, Transylvania. He was living life as a normal boy. Slowly everything began to change when his teacher, Moshe the Beadle was deported. Moshe returns and tells the towns people what had happened to him, the German police had took over the train they were in and lead them into the woods to murder them, but no one believed him. Soon after the Jews from Elie’s town were forced to move out of their homes and into ghettos. They were then forced onto cattle cars and shipped to concentration camps.

During the Holocaust, Eliezer Wiesel changes from a spiritual, sensitive, little boy to a spiritually dead, dispassionate man. In his memoir, Night, Elie speaks about his experiences upon being a survivor of the Holocaust. The reader sees how Elie has changed through his experiences in Sighet and the ghettos in comparison to what it was like for him in the concentration camps.

People can change very much in bad situations like the people in the Holocaust, more specifically, Elie Wiesel, a 15 year old who got sent to a concentration camp in Auschwitz. In the book “Night” by Elie Wiesel, the main character, Elie, changed in many ways throughout the book because of the different experiences and sights he had to go through in Auschwitz.

The holocaust was a very horrible experience for everyone that got discriminated against, especially the jews. A jew that survived the holocaust named Elie Wiesel wrote a book named “Night” about his life and time in the concentration camps. Throughout the story, he shows many character traits. Elie shows strong determination, loyalty and very religious. He changes drastically throughout the book.

The holocaust caused the death of millions of people. It has shaped our history and our world. Elie Wiesel’s Night tells the story of the Holocaust through his perspective. He goes through his life as a child trapped in the terrors of war and describes the life long changes of his physical, spiritual, and emotional state. During his journey he has lost his once strong belief in god and hope for his father. Tragedy can have both its vices and its virtues and they shape us. Elie Wiesel changed dramatically throughout his horrific experience.

The Night was written to remind people of the tragedies occurred during the holocaust, aswell to tell people that it is an obligation to pass on stories of the holocaust to further generations. In the Preface, Elie mentions how terrible the holocaust really was, while doing so several times. The author mentions seven clear words that describe the holocaust, “Hunger-thirst-fear-transport-selection-fire-chimney:” In the concentration camps, there was little or food and drink. The fear of dying, getting separated from family, friends, and loved ones. The day of being sent on trains filled with people, with no room to spare. Either being sent to death, or working in horrible conditions with little food, and the sight of flames coming out of the

Night opens with a short description of a poor man named Moshe the Beadle, who lives in the hometown of Transylvania. Moche is generally well liked, works in the Hasidic synagogue, and is a very spiritual and humble. In 1941, when he is twelve, the narrator, Eliezer Wiesel, wants to study the cabbala but his father tells him that he is too young. Eliezer's father is highly regarded in the Jewish community and pays more attention to outside matters than to family ones; Eliezer has two older sisters, Hilda and Bea, and a younger one,Tzipora. Despite his father's lack of support, Eliezer decides to study the cabbala anyway and chooses Moché as his teacher. Moche teaches him not to search for answers from God, but rather to try to ask the right

“I won’t give you more, more than you can take and I might let you bend, but I won’t let you break.” Elie Wiesel has an unbreakable personality, but he was certainly tested when God put him through the Holocaust with the knowledge that he had the physical and mental strength to get through some miserable times and impact the world with his story. In the book “Night” by Elie Wiesel, the main character, Elie, experiences great change through his horrific and scarring adventures that he endures at the Auschwitz concentration camp.

The murder of thousands can not only impact the universe, but the ones that live in it. For instance, victims of the Happiest had to deal with, not only losing all of their loved ones but the deaths of others around them. In “Night”, Elie is expiring death, of not only his loved ones, also other Jews who were taken by Hitler. The loss of your family is petrifying. But watching others have their lives slipped away from their fingertips, is indubitably scary. In the book “Night” by Elie Wiesel, Elie changes drastically throughout the book, because of the time he spent in Auschwitz, one of the most infamous concentration camps.

In life, people go through different changes when put through difficult experiences. In the book Night, Elie Wiesel is a young Jewish boy whose family is sent to a concentration camp by Nazis. The story focuses on his experiences and trials through the camp. Elie physically becomes more dehumanized and skeletal, mentally changes his perspective on religion, and socially becomes more selfish and detached, causing him to lose many parts of his character and adding to the overall theme of loss in Night.

An important nonfiction book that I think everyone should read is Night by Elie Wiesel. This book was published in 1960 by Hill and Wang. It has 116 pages and it is told by a man who survived the Holocaust. This was a very important moment in history that everyone needs knowledge on.

Throughout a person’s life, he or she expects to have a significant person who will always be there to help out with any given task. The first thought in one’s mind reveals an apparent image of a mother or father, caring for their child. Parents remain as constant representations of how one should care for another; they exhibit protective instincts their children become accustom to, and one would not know how to carry on without their guidance. Presented through the topics of assets, losses, and differing questions in his autobiography Night, Eliezer Wiesel displays the idea of how changing circumstances can cause one to contemplate everything they once held to be true and finite.

Traumatic and scarring events occur on a daily basis; from house fires to war, these memories are almost impossible to forget. The Holocaust is only one of the millions of traumas that have occurred, yet it is known worldwide for sourcing millions of deaths. Elie Wiesel was among the many victims of the Holocaust, and one of the few survivors. In the memoir, “Night”, by Elie Wiesel, Elie, the main character, is forever changed because of his traumatic experiences in the Auschwitz concentration camps.

In all situations where survival is scarce, hope is often needed to survive. The Holocaust is an example of a situation where survival is scarce because very few people survived and most inmates died. In this situation hope is needed because the want to survive is based off hope and without hope the probability of surviving is not good. From the start of Night by Elie Wiesel, Elie the main character shows the importance of hope. From the time he first arrives at Auschwitz to when his father dies he might have moments when he loses hope but deep down he still turns to hope for his survival. Though at times he may show signs of loss of hope he still utilizes hope for his survival. In the Holocaust memoir Night, Elie Wiesel uses the motif of loss of hope to convey the idea that when faced with extreme circumstances, it helps to have a reason to keep going, so that a person can withstand the challenges.

The Holocaust changed the lives of many. Those that survived have many terrifying stories to tell. Many survivors are too horrified to tell their story because their experiences are too shocking to express in words. Eli Wiesel overcomes this fear by publicly relaying his survival of the Holocaust. "Night", his powerful and moving story, touches the hearts of many and teaches his readers a great lesson. He teaches that in a short span of time, the ways of the world can change for the worst. He wants to make sure that if the world didn't learn anything from hearing about the atrocities of the Holocaust, maybe they'll be able to learn something from Elie's own personal experience. Usually, a person can internalize a situation better
