    11 million people were killed during the holocaust, prison camps, prisoners were forced to do hard physical labor. Torture and death within concentration camps were common and frequent. In the documentary The Stanford Prison Experiment twenty-four male students out of seventy-five were selected to take on randomly assigned roles of prisoners and guards in a mock prison as an example of unexpected effects that can occur when phycological experiments into human nature are shown. The novel "Night" demonstrates as well how powerful a few people can be by Elie's experience of the Jews in the camps and the soldiers showed nothing resembling consideration for any of the people in the camps. Both the documentary and the novel convey the notion of mans inhumanity against man by the roles of each person and how unfairly of the

    “He’s the man who’s lived through hell without every hating. Who’s been exposed to the most depraved aspects of human nature but still manages to find love, to believe in God, to experience joy.” This was a quote said by Oprah Winfrey during her interview with Elie Wiesel, a holocaust survivor. No person who has not experienced the Holocaust and all its horrors could ever relate to Elie Wiesel. He endured massive amounts of torture, physically, mentally, and emotionally just because he was a Jew. One simple aspect of Wiesel’s life he neither chose or could changed shaped his life. It is important to take a look at Wiesel’s life to see the pain that he went through and try to understand the experiences that happened in his life. Elie Wiesel is a well respected, influential figure with an astonishing life story. Although Elie Wiesel had undergone some of the harshest experiences possible, he was still a man able to enjoy life after the Holocaust.

    As humans, we require basic necessities, such as food, water, and shelter to survive. But we also need a reason to live. The reason could be the thought of a person, achieving some goal, or a connection with a higher being. Humans need something that drives them to stay alive. This becomes more evident when people are placed in horrific situations. In Elie Wiesel's memoir Night, he reminisces about his experiences in a Nazi concentration camp during the Holocaust. There the men witness horrific scenes of violence and death. As time goes on they begin to lose hope in the very things that keep them alive: their faith in God, each other, and above all, themselves.

    In Elie Wiesel’s Night, he recounts his horrifying experiences as a Jewish boy under Nazi control. His words are strong and his message clear. Wiesel uses themes such as hunger and death to vividly display his days during World War II. Wiesel’s main purpose is to describe to the reader the horrifying scenes and feelings he suffered through as a repressed Jew. His tone and diction are powerful for this subject and envelope the reader. Young readers today find the actions of Nazis almost unimaginable. This book more than sufficiently portrays the era in the words of a victim himself.

  • Condemned By a Perforated Sheet: Midnight's Children

    2296 Words  | 5 Pages

    In Salman Rushdie’s “Midnight’s Children,” Saleem Sinai clings to his silver spittoon inlaid with lapis lazuli (the spittoon given to his mother, Amina Sinai, by Rani of Cooch Naheen for her dowry) as a sort of personal talisman. The spittoon, responsible for his temporary memory loss (after hitting him in the head during an air raid), remains a symbol of his former life, a symbol he cherishes even when he is incapable of remembering what it means. The spittoon represents the former wholeness of his life, his family, his country. Despite his attachment to the physical and symbolic spittoon, Saleem seems more haunted by the perforated sheet. The symbolic opposite of the silver spittoon, the perforated sheet represents fragmentation—the fragmentation of Saleem (both body and life), of his family, his country, and even his narrative.
