Henry And Henia Negative Effects

The Lowenstein family is only one example of the thousands of Jewish family’s affected during the Nazi Regime. But through their family’s story one is able to understand some of the conditions people were under during that time period. However, the family was no fully Jewish. Max Lowenstein was Jewish but Marie Steinberg was from Estonia, as a result their son Henry was half Jewish but their daughter who was from not born from Marie’s marriage with Max was not Jewish. Nevertheless, the family still received tremendous persecution. His father was a doctor and his mother an artist. But both were very artistic, as Henry Lowenstein mentions in the video. He remembers growing up in an apartment where there were always performers in their home; the place was decorated with art, his parents always went to the theater, and his mother would take him to different museums in Berlin. They were also a family who practiced both Christian and Jewish traditions. His sister, who wasn’t even Jewish knew more Hebrew than him and could recite the bible. They were a very happy and united family until the Nazi’s grew in power and they were forced to break

Elie Wiesel shows a lot of courage going back to the place that brought him so much pain. I was really surprised Wiesel would go back to all the bad memories. I do not know him but those memories probably made him the person he was. At Auschwitz was where his mother, father, and sisters all died so he must be reminded of the lose of his family. I am quite glad that this video was made because I did learn a lot. I never knew there was a prison inside a prison where they kept all the political Jews and the Nazis also tortured the political Jews there. I thought it was nice they put flowers outside of the building. I also never knew that the Nazis kept a lot of the articles of clothings they would take from the Jews before they killed them or

The article “Life in Mississippi: East St Louis, Illinois” is one that is not taken lightly. The article shows one the injustice that African Americans face in the city of St. Louis. The article all together is shocking and heartbreaking. To know that in a country that is suppose to be one of the greatest, if not the greatest, there still is so much injustice is not only eye opening but also upsetting. One of the 2 most heartbreaking parts for me was when Kozol describes the old men leaning on his cane listening to Jesse Jackson and crying. This is something so powerful to me because this is someone who has experience all of the hardships that east St. Louis has to offer and he has to live knowing that not much has change and maybe Jesse Jackson was the only one promising the change they deserve. The last scene was when one of the students goes up to Kozol after class and tell him that what Dr. King did was nothing because they are still living in such horrible situations. For a teenage kid to think and feel that way, they must have had to suffer through so much, which is exactly what the article is able to show us, the injustice that these kids face on a daily basis. Having read this is shocking to one because we live in a different area where we aren’t prone to see such things and because we have grown up and taught to believe that racism and poverty is almost non existing because this is American a country that doesn’t fail the people.

this video has impacted me and what I will take away from this video. Also, what will be

Millions of people were killed during the Holocaust. They suffered from diseases and starvation, labored to death, and murdered in concentration camps. In experiencing the terrors of the Holocaust, Elie Wiesel describes his dreadful experiences as a Jewish boy under Nazi control. Everybody goes through situations and experiences that affect them in some way, perhaps even change them. This intense story not only indicates the horror of the concentration camp experience; it shows many important examples of literary devices and reveals certain themes of the excerpt. The way Wiesel uses these devices and themes help create an overwhelming effect on the story. Wiesel talked about the camp using pathos to express how their lives were full of darkness. There were many quotes that gave readers a sense of sympathy. For instance, the quote “I witnessed other hangings. I never saw a single victim weep. For a long time, those dried-up bodies had long forgotten the bitter taste of tears” (572). This particular quote shows that they were hopeless about everything and their lives were never getting better. The way Wiesel specifies this emotional feeling is definitely the strongest, without a doubt. It appears to be practically unreasonable for a reader not to cry about the way Wiesel describes the things he goes through.

When people look at two extremely different stories such as Night and Life is Beautiful, they would not expect there to be many similarities. However, these two devastating tales are more alike than suspected. Both Night and Life is Beautiful may be two accounts of the holocaust, but that does not mean that they bring the same thing to the table. They both may include a somewhat similar father-son relationship, yet they still aren’t that same. Night, a tragic memoir of Eliezer Wiesel, and Life is Beautiful, a humorous and still somewhat depressing movie of Guido and his family, have numerous similarities as well as drastic differences between them.

During World War II a tragic event, known as the Holocaust, resulted in the death of roughly six million people of the Jewish faith. Millions of families were separated and sent to concentration camps throughout Eastern Europe, many of which could never reunite. Elie Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor, gave an influential speech on April 12th, 1999 in Washington D.C. directed toward President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Clinton. His speech addressed his story of his survival in the Holocaust, as well as points about indifference. Wiesel creates an extremely influential, effective speech using Ethos, Logos, and mostly Pathos.

Listening to him quote his own words from his book and realizing that this old man endured all this at the age of 16, the same age as me made me realize all that we young ones today take advantage of. Describing himself lying helpless, listening to his father’s cries, unable to answer, as the SS beat his father, is a paralyzing thought. I cannot begin to imagine the guilt, pain, and suffering that he lived with all his life. To imagine the face of my father, and listening to him

Lastly, the scenes portraying the liquidation of the Warsaw Ghetto were powerful. An emotional response was provoked as I watched the Jews being stripped of their belongings and loaded on to the cattle trains. It was heartbreaking to watch as Jan Zabinski once again attempted to save the doctor, this time from entering the train which would take him to his death. Yet, the doctor nonchalantly ignored the escape offer and spoke loudly of taking a vacation with the children. He loudly spoke of “going to Rome to see a magician show”, only to keep the children calm while being loaded onto the train. The doctor lied with good intention so that he could prevent the children from becoming frightened and chaotic. Although he had the opportunity to escape, he never left the children. He calmly entered the train knowing death was near, but he remained calm to keep the children calm. It reminded me of the short film, The Ambulance, we watched during the course. The child caregiver watched as Nazi soldiers readied the ambulance for their death, yet he kept

They entered Auschwitz and there found hundreds of sick and exhausted prisoners. The Jews that survive will have to live out the rest of their lives constantly thinking of what has happened to them or their families. They will never forget the tragedies, and will probably always remember it like it happened yesterday. I feel sorrow for these Jews, and what they had to go through in there troublesome past. They did nothing to deserve it, but dealt with it strongly and struggled through it. They survived, and live today to tell the stories of it. Some Jews are very successful as they live the lives of normal human beings. Like Martin Greenfield, an American master tailor, based in Brooklyn, New York, specializing in men's suits. He’s successful, has money, and works alongside his two sons, Jay and Tod. He is also married to his wife Arlene, in which he married in 1956. These people have learned to put the past behind them, and make the best out what life they have left. They may have thoughts about the past and their personal tragedies, but instead of grieving, they use it as motivation putting the next foot forward and carrying on with the rest of their

This made me feel more educated about genocide and where it came from. How genocide started and what the word means and how it came from different parts. I felt I understand What Genocide is better and that it's a horrible thing that can actually happen and it's not fake. Genocide was such a tragedy so many people died because of genocide. The Crime of Genocide made me want to know more informations about it and who were leaders of genocide as an example Adolf Hitler was from Germany, Benito Mussolini was one but for Italy. There are so many thing You don't know about.

Throughout the novel Henry speculates whether or not he will run from battle. In this scene Henry finally makes a decision without hesitation. Why Stephen Crane compares Henry to a rabbit, defines how Henry made this important decision. Earlier on in the battle Henry had seen a rabbit running away for where the battle was. This makes him question if he was making the right decision because it seemed that even a simple rabbit knew when to run from danger and he did not. Henry’s choice is important for the continuation of the book, because it defines how he thinks during the rest of the novel and defines how Henry is defined as a character. Even though in Henry’s future he might achieve some sort of heroic action, but the reader will always know

The movie Regarding Henry portrays the life of a successful workaholic lawyer. Work consumes his life; until it almost ends with a gunshot. After this traumatic experience, he discovers the essential things in life. With amnesia Henry returns to a playful, childlike state, but he also begins to care more about his family and other people. Sigmund Freud established three sides of the personality that are always in conflict; the id, ego, and superego. The id is the childish part operating on the pleasure principle, the ego is the rational, "normal" part, and the superego is the moral part and it balances out the id. The superego is Henry’s natural state; he truly cares about others and wants to do what is right.

• I must say I never saw something that was put together so flawlessly. Seeing that most people are attracted to the holocaust for some odd reason, I am sure I am not the only one who was on the edge of my seat every second of the video.

After watching the first video, “Heider and Simmel 1944 animation” there were objects that appeared to show some emotion by the way they were moving. As in the second video, “Kuleshov experiment” there were different people sharing the same facial expression in response to a girl in a coffin, a bowl of soup and a spoon, and a women on a divan. This experiment showed every aspect in the video being motionless. This experiment brought emotional reactions from its viewers to this sequence of images. In the third video “Intellectual Virtues” Dr. Baehr, spoke on how we should become life long learners and how we could display this learning, by being open-minded, having intellectual perseverance, and having intellectual humility. For the final video,
