Never to forget

“The Holocaust, taken by itself, is a Black Hole, to look at it directly is to be swallowed up by it.” (“A Quote By.“) David Novak said these words in response to the Holocaust.

I choose this book because anytime I have to read a nonfiction book, the only nonfiction books I can read and enjoy reading the book are about Holocaust for some reason. I’m not sure why though. I got it at the school library, and my friend Elaina recommend me to read this book. The title appealed to me because it

The Holocaust is a horrible time in human history. The leader of the Nazi party and one responsible for the Holocaust is Adolf Hitler. Many authors use the Holocaust and Hitler as a base for their books. One example of these books is Lord of the Flies. The book is set in the middle of World War 2. The book is about children that get stranded on an Island without adults. The children vote for a chief, Ralph. Jack was the competition for Ralph, after Jack lost the race for chief he started his Hunters. This relates to Hitler because people think he went mad because he did not get into his dream art school. They both had a crave for power after they failed.

As we all know, the Holocaust was a crucial time for everyone and authors have used different techniques to really show the readers the damage that was done. In “The Boy In The Striped Pajamas” written by John Boyne, the main character becomes friendly with a Jewish boy on the other side on the fence and he learns the torture of being on that side. In the novel, “The Devil’s Arithmetic” by Jane Yolen, a teenage girl does not understand her religion but then is transported back in time to learn to respect it. In “Teens Against Hitler” created by Lauren Tarshis, we learn about young men escaping camps and helping others leave in order to stop Hitler. And last but not least in the article, “Betrayed By America” by Kristin Lewis, multiple families

The Holocaust was very extreme, forcing victims to make a choice between prioritizing their own survival or allowing a close friend or family member to live. Some people would not have survived unless they could steal clothes or food from another person else, and countless others selflessly surrendered their own resources allowing a family member to stay alive. Night is a novel written by Holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel. In Auschwitz, the officers deprived Elie and the other prisoners of food, resources and clean living space. Prisoners had to sacrifice morality if they wanted to live. My Life in Germany is a short story by Rosa Marie Burger. It takes place in the Holocaust's early days and highlights the sharp loss of rights that the German Jews endured. They felt betrayed when their fellow citizens did not speak out. Most people will not remain loyal if it means putting themselves in imminent danger.

The Horrific Events of the Holocaust The Holocaust was one of the most notorious acts of genocide in modern history. Wiesel tells the reader about all the these acts that he went through his book Night. During Wiesel’s trials and suffering that he endured through the genocide, Wiesel had to have hope that he would make it out alive and tell his story: “Don’t lose hope...have faith in life, a thousand times faith...help each other.

The Holocaust. One of the most memorialized events in the history of mankind. Tragic deaths that tallied over 20 million total. The majority of those ( 6 million ) were of Jewish ethnicity. This novel follows the life of what was a young prideful jewish boy, to a what turned into be a hopeless, near death, young man. This is a non-fiction book known as Night ・ Elie Wiesel.

The Holocaust was one of the most horrific and dehumanizing occurrences that the human race has ever endured. It evolved around cruelty, hatred, death, destruction and prejudice. Thousands of innocent lives were lost in Hitler's attempt to exterminate the Jewish population. He killed thousands of Jews by way of gas chamber, crematorium, and starvation. The people who managed to survive in the concentration camps were those who valued not just their own life but others as well. Elie Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor and author of the novel, Night, expressed his experiences very descriptively throughout his book. When Elie was just fifteen years old his family was shipped off

The Holocaust. This book is a must-read for many English classrooms as it is a very deep book that shows many examples of paradigm shifts, and it also shows how characteristics of people change over time. It shows the Jewish side of the holocaust and the treatment that they received from the Germans, who were less than hospitable. The story focuses on Elie Wiesel, his father, and the Jews of the camp. There were many times that they were dehumanized in the story, and they affected Elie’s mindset in ways that stayed with him long past his time in the camps.

The Holocaust was a systematic genocide of the six million Jews and over nine million other Undesirables of Europe during World War II, spanning from 1933 to 1945. The memoir Night by Elie Wiesel depicts the savagery of the concentration camps and with which the Nazis treated the inhabitants. Not surprisingly, not all the Jews were able to maintain their devotion to the religion that they loved and died for. The atrocities of the Holocaust made it inevitable for the Jews to question God and, for some like Elie, to eventually lose their faith.

What would your account of the Holocaust be? The Holocaust was a unique event in twentieth century history which, evolved between 1933 and 1945. Beginning with discrimination; then the Jews were separated from their communities and persecuted; they were treated as less than human beings and murdered. While the Jews of Europe were the Nazis’ primary target, many millions of other people were also imprisoned, enslaved and murdered. These people included Roma, those with mental or physical disabilities, homosexuals, Jehovah's Witnesses, trade unionists, political opponents, Poles and Soviet prisoners of war. The Nazis did not act alone. They were supported and assisted by people from within the countries they occupied across Europe. Most countries stood by while the Nazis and their accomplices carried out the mass murder of the Jewish people. Thus, in 1941 there were about 11 million Jews living in Europe; by May 1945 the Nazis had murdered six million of them. One-and-a-half million of these were children.

Genocide is the destruction of an ethnic, racial, or religious group. The most famous genocide, conducted by the Germans, is the extermination of the Jewish population known as the Holocaust. There are other genocides such as the Armenian or Darfur genocide, but the Holocaust is the one talked about and studied the most around the world today. Museums exist in Washington D.C, Los Angeles, and parts of Europe that focus primarily on this dark time in history. Vast amounts of books, movies, and documents concentrate on the Holocaust. Why is this chapter, between 1939 and 1945, discussed and examined? The answer lies within people who experienced the Holocaust such as Elie Wiesel, Jay Frankston, and Franks Shatz. These men have gone through hell and back, but they believe in one thing. That is, the notion of never again. The goal is to educate future generations on what really happened, so history does not repeat itself. Never again should people of any race, religion, or ethnicity, go through the horrific past of the Holocaust. In their writing, Wiesel, Frankston, and Shatz do a great job using pathos, logos, and ethos to convey their message of never again for future generations.

Imagine yourself being born as a Jew in the time of the Holocaust. Being forced to go into hiding, and go every day not knowing what will come next, living in fear of being captured by the Nazis and sent to a concentration camp. The Holocaust was a time in period when a guy named Adolf Hitler came into power of being the leader of the Nazis. The Nazis rounded and relocated nearly 1 million Jews from all across Europe to forced labor camps and extermination camps. There were different ways they got rid of the Jews. A quarter of the Jews were worked to death. The rest were sent immediately to gas chambers to be killed. Literature helps us remember and honor the victims of the Holocaust by reading and seeing all the suffering they went through.

“The Diary of Anne Frank” by Francis Goodrich and Albert Hackett, “Emil and Karl” by Yankev Glatshteyn, and “One Survivor Remembers” by Kory Antholis all show determination and persistence in their own way. Germany at this time was led by Adolf Hitler, a man with a great deal of unpleasant and terrible beliefs like how the Jewish community back stabbed Germany in World War II. The outcome is Adolf Hitler wanting to eradicate the Jewish community due to (accused) backstabbing, “even though more than 100,000 German and Austrian Jews served in the war and more than 12,000 died”(Stitchling). Jews were found e “The Diary of Anne Frank”
