Changes In Night By Elie Wiesel

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.

Elie experienced many changes, as a person while he was in Auschwitz. Before Elie was sent to Auschwitz, he was just a small naive child that new very little

Elie has lots of character traits that helped him get through Auschwitz, such as resourceful, traitor, and determined. In Night, Elie states “I went back a week later. With the same excuse: I still was not feeling better” (52). Elie came up with excuses to get out of getting his gold crown out. He got resourceful and came up with the idea to keep making an excuse that he was not feeling well, until they got a new doctor and he got to keep his gold crown. He used what he already had to get more out of people later and use his tooth as an advantage. Not only was he resourceful but he was also a traitor. Elie just let his father die and his father was still breathing yet he didn’t move.“My father groaned once more, I heard: ‘Eliezer…’ I could see that he was still breathing- in gaps. I didn’t move” (Wisel 111). He just let his father died and didn’t even try to help him and he died and his last words were “Eliezer…”, but he is thinking for his own future and if he will live or not. He betrayed and was a traitor to his father and didn’t even say goodbye. He was also very determined on living as said by Elie in the expert from his book, “‘Listen to me, kid. Don’t forget you are in a

Elie loses his faith after thinking about how God might not exist because if he does than he would let this ever happen. Elie loses his innocence after seeing the two corpses lying side by side, father and son. Elie kept his thoughtful ness and love because he didn’t want to leave his father to die or for myself to die because if he died than they would do unspeakable thing to his father. He loses a lot of things at Auschwitz including faith, innocence and his father. Many traumatic experiences are bad for ones health and could cause long-term illnesses including

Child abuse is very similar to the book Night by Elie Wiesel. There is one main topic that sticks out when reading child abuse articles and Night. Both topics have delt with a certain pain. Elie Wiezel and child abuse victims have suffered, starved, and are mainly frightened of their surroundings. Not only did they deal with emotional abuse, but also physical abuse. The Jewish children in Night have been abused by the leaders of the camp and were forced to do work or else get punished. When it comes to Child abuse, the children also get punished, whipped, and punched like Elie and his father did. Both topics dealt with verbal abuse too. Many Jews in Night have been threatened and constantly picked on by the concentration camp leaders for being

Over the course of the book, elie changes from being a caring kid to being very vigilant teenager. This is important to the book as a whole because it connects to how somebody can change due to on event. The change is apparent when elies dad is slowly dying, When he arrives at the concentration camps, and he realizes that his father will no longer be with him In the book it states “ ‘ I am too old, my son’ he answered ‘ too old to start a new life.

In real life, bad things happen to people, that can change them. In the holocaust many people changed. Ellie wiesel is one of the many people that got changed. In the book “Night” by Elie Wiesel, the main character Elie, was transformed throughout the book by his experiences in Auschwitz.

During the holocaust, Elie Wiesel changes from a spiritual sensitive little boy to a spiritually dead, unemotional man. “ Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever.” the book Night revels Elie experiences during the holocaust.

Change is normally inevitable when faced with traumatic situations. In the book Night author Elie Wiesel shows the transformation of himself as he struggles through the events of the holocaust. Being separated from most of his family members, Elie had only his father left to provide as some sort of support. Surviving was hard. Through the harsh weather to the small rations of food, Elie’s self preservation instincts start to kick in.

Indifference. Noun meaning lack of interest, concern, or sympathy. Not important. Lacking feeling. That is indifference. To use that word to describe the theme of Night, is to describe life. Many lives actually. I do believe many people had a lack of interest in the holocaust, just because “at least it’s them and not us.” Some express sympathy to the lives lost, but all that matters is that we stopped it when we did right? Wrong. To this day, some think the holocaust was played out to be worse than it actually was, for the sake of drama and publicity.

Hate is gasoline. Indifference is fire. In society, indifference is the force that ignites the true colors of evil to emerge - to cause the darkest decades known to man. The concept of indifference, in more ways than one, becomes a predominant force in the life of Elie Wiesel, author of the memoir Night. Wiesel provides a raw account of the Holocaust’s horrors and the devastatingly life-altering effect it had on his character, intertwining the concept of indifference and its crucial role in the events that transpired. The undertone of the theme of indifference within Night is represented symbolically within the characters Moshe the Beadle and Madame Schächter, through the examples of father and son relationships, and lastly in the development

Elie Wiesel 's Night chronicles his experience surviving in a concentration camp. He, along with every other Jew in his town, and many more throughout Europe, were sent to concentration camps for no fault of their own. Hitler, the fascist dictator of Germany and most of Europe, hated them because of their religion. He considered them a separate, inferior race and created the concentration camps to kill them all. Elie lost his mother, little sister, father, and nearly everyone he knew to these factories of death.

Before Elie went to Auschwitz, he exhibited many positive character traits such as intelligence, compassion, and kind heartedness. On page 56, Elie states ¨I couldn't stop thinking about my father, he must have suffered more than I did. At this point in the book, Elie is at home worrying about his father because he is weak and strengthless because of all the hiding and fighting form the Natzis who are trying to send the jewish people to the camps. Before Auschwitz, Elie had still dearly loved and cared for his father, as he does and is proven in the quote. This shows through instead of worrying about his own well being, he is worried about his father's well being and suffering and wants to know if his father is okay. This shows Elie’s selflessness and compassion for others.

Before Elie was sentenced to Auschwitz, he had many positive traits. One of these include restraint.
