     Eli has a definite change emotionally. He thinks about the things he would never consider if he was not in Auschwitz. For example, on page 102, Elie says, “I gave him what was left of my soup, But it was with a heavy heart. I felt that I was giving it up to him against my will.” In the beginning, it was as if Elie would do anything for his father. After all, his father was older and it was Elie’s turn to look after him. After a while, his father seems like almost a burden to him. Elie felt obligated to give him the rest of his food, but if given the choice, he probably would not have given it up easily.

How they were making them feel worthless and how they were making them feel all these negative things, Ellie tried to keep his faith but at the end of it he just couldn't do it anymore. One piece of evidence that supports that is “PRESSED TIGHTLY AGAINST one another, in an effort to resist the cold, our heads empty and heavy, our brains a whirlwind of decaying memories” (page 98). This shows that Elie is losing himself in the process of being physically and mentally abused by these people and he can’t take it anymore. Which this also goes along with the theme, by how it represents that Elie is going through this traumatic experience and he's losing himself along the way. Another piece of evidence is “AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE CAMP, SS officers were waiting for us. We were counted… The old, familiar fear: not to lose him” (page 104). When Ellie says that he doesn't want to lose “him” he's talking about his father. His father is the only family he has now that his other family members were taken away, Ellie is living inn in the dark and in fear of losing his father, he's scared. This connects to the theme by how he is once again in fear, of many things, but his main fear is losing his father and he's losing everything and he doesn't want to lose anything else he doesn't want to become any less of a person he doesn’t want to become any less emotionless.

The first of the 2 novels is Night, in this novel; it is often shown through-out the book that in times of need, people are willing to turn on one another. By seeing how Eliezer’s views about his father changed in the novel, it is proven that Eliezer began to focus more on surviving and desires than some of the important things like family thus proving that the evil change that Eliezer went was in fact nothing more than him falling back onto his more primitive beliefs of focusing on living by instinct and desire. The first of the two quotes to prove that is here: “He slapped my father with such force that he fell down and then crawled back to his place on all fours. I stood petrified. What had happened to me? My father had just been struck, in front of me, and I had not even blinked. I had watched and kept silent. Only yesterday, I would have dug my nails into this criminal’s flesh. Had I changed so much?”(Wiesel 39) This quote is from Eliezer’s first moments in Auschwitz. And from this quote, we know that it also marks the beginning of Eliezer’s steadily decreasing lack of sympathy for others for he had already began his descent to using his primitive instincts. This quote though, is extremely enlightening when compared to the thesis. This would be because this quote illustrates the fact that Eliezer

Elie starts to have doubts about god he misses his mother and his sister but he lost all hope because the camps were dehumanizing him and made him lose his character and who he used to be but his old self never thought to ever look down on god but he had no other options but too he didn't know if he would ever make it

Elis is scared and nervous when they come to a train station and get push on to the train packed with hundreds of people. They stayed on that train for a couple of days. Elie was scared but happy that he was sitting with his mom, dad and sister. They pulled up to a camp and Elie was ripped away from his mom and sister and was stuck with his dad. It was hard for Elie to see his sister and his mom being ripped away to God knows where.

His eyes tell that he is dead inside and has given up all hope since he wasn’t strong enough to work anymore. So he just laid there waiting for the selection to clean him out of the clinic. Even tho Elie couldn’t see his eyes he used them to explain what kind of situation he was in.

Connect: Elie had analyzed his situation and discovered to live was not important anymore, later when he and his father lives got threatened he immediately realized he had to stay alive.

The thought of his father being dead is devastating, “The end of suffering does not justify the suffering, and so there is no end to suffering, what a mess I am’’, (Foer 33) he has to live with the fact that his father is gone. When Oskar exits his house, the suffering starts because he lives to find out the mystery. Once upon a time, he was faced with a similar situation. He describes his life, “The meaning of my thoughts started to float away from me, like leaves that fall from a tree into a river, I was the tree, the world was the river.” [ Foer 16], Oskar faces many trials that lead to his emotions.

This passage in the book has a strong father/son connection, and bond from what the author Elie Wiesel portrays. The literary element supports the passage by showing that Elie has a strong bond with his father and that he deeply does care for him, and his father does show the love for him back by taking care of him for the whole process of the journey. Although, throughout the story so far him and his father don’t say that they love each other, but they do prove it by action and Elie’s thoughts are also in the story and portrays how he feels about his father and shows that he is comfortable around him and happier with him as said in this passage. The author shows that no matter what circumstance that he was in violent or not, he had been happier

This shows how Elie showed he had felt ashamed for turning his back on his father, like many boys he saw had done to their fathers while he was in the death camps. Another way Elie shows us his theme is through the language he used. Elie uses figurative

Whether or not we are aware of it, each of us is faced with an abundance of conflict each and every day. From the division of chores within a household, to asking one's boss for a raise, we've all learned the basic skills of negotiation. A national bestseller, Getting to Yes, introduces the method of principled negotiation, a form of alternative dispute resolutions as opposed to the common method of positional bargaining. Within the book, four basic elements of principled negotiation are stressed; separate the people from the problem, focus on interests instead of positions, invest options for mutual gain, and insist on using objective criteria. Following this section of the book are suggestions for problems that may occur and finally a

In the short story, “My Parents’ Bedroom,’ written by Uwem Akpan, the most defining role of literacy that sticks out is symbolism. The images that are engraved into readers brains are ones that have deeper meanings than what we initially see on the surface. The story is told through the eyes of a little girl named, Monique, who is only nine years old. It is told in first person point of view so that the reader feels as if he/she is actually experiencing the situations first hand. The symbolism in the story, “My Parents; Bedroom,” illustrates the day to day struggle of living in Africa during the genocide. Symbolism is
