Book Report On Night By Elie Wiesel

While reading the book Night by Elie Wiesel, one of the things I learned about was the jews living conditions. I read about Elie living them with many other jews and it stuck out to me because how could a person live like that and stay alive? Every jew that was caught was sent to a concentration camp and had a total different way of lifestyle when being held there. Another thing that stuck out while reading the book was the SS officers. The SS officers are Hitler's protective unit.

The book Night written by holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel, illustrates life in the holocaust. Through life in ghettos, labour camps, concentration camps, death camps and the final death march. Every Jew in Europe during the Holocaust has a different story, and Elie Wiesel is just one of the 6 million that are out there. Elie’s experience during the Holocaust has many similarities to other experiences, but also many differences. When Hitler came to power in 1933, there was an immediate hatred against Jews.

By the time they en figured out what hitler and the Nazis were doing it was to late to do anything because the Nazis had already established over 20,000 camps for the labor, transit, and extermination of the jews. The thought of being sent to one of those camps is enough to make any man pee his pants a little. I can’t imagine that the jews felt any differently. They knew more than anyone that any kind of revolt without help would pretty much be the annihilation of the jews who attempted, so they decided to avoid the Nazis as much as possible which is completely understandable most likely anyone in such a situation would react the same

Seventy – six years ago the first killings of Jews began in Chelmo, Poland. Not even one hundred years have passed, and people are already forgetting how devastating it was, killing over six million Jews. Quotes from Night, by Elie Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor himself, and facts and statistics illustrates how the Holocaust proves how cruel others can be, what happens when one man has too much power, and how fast humans resort to their basic instincts to survive, and that is why people should continue to learn about it. First and foremost, we know humans can be the cruelest things in the world sometimes, as demonstrated by the Nazis in the Holocaust. When they killed ruthlessly, and without regret six million Jews, and close to two million other minorities.

Faith was lost, and it was because of what Elie has been through. Nobody deserves to go through something like this. These people were treated worse than animals. The holocaust is proof of what people have the power of doing to each other even though we are all human. I haven’t been anywhere close to being a prisoner in a concentration camp, and Elie didn’t give up, but if I would be in his place, I would try really hard not to lose my faith.

Never Lost, Only Impaired Imagine this, you are beaten because you did not make your cot properly. You give your last ration of bread to your child, since they are the only thing you have left to hold onto. You are stripped of your clothing, valuables, and of course your faith in everything you have ever believed in. You ask yourself, who would want to even think about this happening to them? Ladies and gentlemen, this is how people were suffering daily during the Holocaust.

Although his early life was filled with nearly unimaginable hardships, Elie Wiesel went on to create a legacy of hope and inspiration millions of people all over the world will continue to look to, that is his long and accomplished life. Upon entering his adult life, Wiesel had to overcome devastating loss and the trauma inflicted on him during his time in Nazi concentration camps. After escaping these horrors though, Wiesel became known for his activism, and has become the voice of those who survived the Holocaust through  his work on his world-renowned novel, Night. In listening to the powerful and true stories told in Wiesel’s unforgettable novel, Night, we know that the horrors he witnessed and experienced played an enormous role in the

I think the author's purpose for writing this book is to not discriminate against people and what race or religion they are, to inform people who read the book about what happened during the holocaust and to show that some people were uninformed about what was actually going on during that time. In the book, Bruno, the main character, moves to a house right outside of the camp and meets a boy named Shmuel. Shmuel is on the other side of the fence, and Bruno does not understand that Shmuel is trapped and is being treated terribly. He also doesn’t see Shmuel as different, like most people did during the years of the holocaust, and I think that’s one way the author tried to tell us that not everyone was informed about what was actually going on,

Introduction: During the Holocaust, many people suffered from the despicable actions of others. These actions were influenced by hatred, intolerance, and anti-semitic views of people. The result of such actions were the deaths of millions during the Holocaust, a devastating genocide aimed to eliminate Jews. In this tragic event, people, both initiators and bystanders, played major roles that allowed the Holocaust to continue. Bystanders during this dreadful disaster did not stand up against the Nazis and their collaborators.

The Holocaust and the Armenian Genocide are the two of the most tragic deaths of the world. The Holocaust is the most impactful genocide today. While both are tragic and sorrowful the Holocaust’s time period, death count, and location is why it’s most impactful today. The Holocaust occurred in Germany after World War II.

Which then could turn into the emotions of pride and compliance. In an interview with Holocaust survivor Irene Weiss, she expresses, “It was very dangerous for anyone to show any kind of consideration to Jews… because anyone who can point out another person that helped the Jew, or he hid a Jew, or he gave him some meal or something was immediately interrogated and threatened. And their own families were in danger.” This indicates that the people who saw this as wrong were also in extreme danger. The Nazis ruled out of fear.

The SS Officers are Responsible The Holocaust was one of the scariest times in history to be alive. People were judged by their race, beliefs, and even their physical appearances. The prejudice people that lived in that time era were cruel and there was proof that the majority of the blames land into the SS Officials hands.

The Holocaust was one of the most tragic events in history. It just so happened to be the cause of six million deaths. While there are countless beings who experienced such trauma, it is impossible to hear everyone's side of the story. However, one man, in particular, allowed himself to speak of the tragedies. Elie Wiesel addressed the transformation he underwent during the Holocaust in his memoir, Night.

For example Bruno said, “ I don’t see why I have to be stuck over here on this side of the fence where there is nobody to talk to and no one to play with and you get to have dozens of friends probably playing for hours a day…” (Boyne, 110). Bruno should have known about the holocaust and should not have been naive, if this was the case, he would have had a very different perspective and better friends with

When you are trying to save the whole Jewish population, you can’t just do it on your own, you’ll need some help. One of the people who helped him was his own wife (Lutz Carl). Also, there were many other Holocaust upstanders that helped. There were many things that Lutz did to save the Jews. One of the main things he did was he housed the Jews.
