The Setting Effect In Daniel's Story By Carol Matas

The parents have played a very important role in Daniels life. They brought him up always showing him what's wrong and what's right, what choices to make, and who to trust. Being a parent means that you should always be in control of your children for as long as possible. Daniel was said to be the type that needed guidance even though he came across as a strong and independent. His mother knew this, but even she was scared of what he was capable of. When times got rough the parents backed off and let him make his own choices. That wasn’t the best move to make. The parents might have shown love and affection to Daniel but they truly couldn’t see what was going on. If only they had paid enough attention to Daniel maybe they could witness how badly he was coming off the rails. They could of helped him. Helped him to make the right choices.

1.) Music clearly means a lot to Daniel, as stated in his passage. Daniel talks about how he came from the “least musical of families” growing up, however, his mother signed him up for piano lessons anyhow. Daniel played the piano for quite a while, but eventually quit and worked in piano bars and theater orchestra pits at seventeen years old. Daniel stated some afternoons he would go to his friend Mikes house and listen to popular bands. One day, mike asked if he wanted to “hear something wild”. The something wild was Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. I think this is a point where the significance is clear. Daniel said that day was when he thought he actually heard music for the first time. Daniel took mikes tapes and listened to them in secret. He would blare Beethoven on the way to school, and quickly change it to KROQ while pulling in. Daniel was so in love this new genre of music he discovered, he decided to become a composer. He put in all the hard work: studied scores, read biographies, and got a serious piano teacher. Now Daniel lives in New York and is a composer of classical music for NewMusicBox. If Daniel never listened to the “something wild” he might have never had this future of becoming a composer.

Joel and Daniel differ greatly from each other. All of Joel’s family is still alive, unlike Daniel’s where most of his family has died. Daniel has a younger sister, Leah, who doesn’t leave the house due to a traumatic incident when she was young when she saw her father killed. She lives with her grandmother who soon dies in the middle of the novel . Daniel’s

Daniel's story was about a boy named daniel, daniel was a jewish person that live in the time when hitler was sending jews to concentration camps also know as the holocaust. The holocaust was very bad it took jews away from their homes, jobs and families and friends. hitler hated jews because they took away jobs and they weren't actually germans.hitler killed about six million jew in a couple of years. they way he would kill them was to poison the air or burn them. they never could escape until the U.S. stopped the camps after the war.

Hannah’s background as a Holocaust survivor is important for understanding the experience of the Holocaust. Her story provides unique insight on the Holocaust outside of concentration camps, dispels myths, and captivates the emotional aura of living during the Holocaust. Hannah’s story is one of resistance, danger, and the importance of family.

Where there is doubt along with darkness, the human spirit finds a way triumphs. In the documents A through E, different stories are told through books or from someones perspective of the time during the Holocaust. The characters mostly seem to be happy in this tough time bringing up the question, how does the spirit triumph. The love, the laughter, and the natural beauty helps the human spirit prevail. To help these people think and feel positive, they find a way to love.

The memories of the author help you understand the plight of the Jews during the Holocaust and give you a sense

Daniel’s story In Carol Matas book Daniel’s story, gives the Jewish point of view. Shows you how they were treated during the Holocaust. Carol Matas uses Daniel to signify relationships to show how people survived. Such as the relationship between him and Rose and his mom and his dad shows how relationship helped the Jewish people survive.

In a time of persecution, it is easy for an individual to lose himself. Although Night by Elie Wiesel and the movie Life is Beautiful are shown from Jewish and Italian perspectives, they both strive to portray the same meaning. The two illustrate what it was like living in the concentration camps, and the suffering a individual can experience. Both believe that in a time of misfortune all one needs is family. In contrast, “Man’s Search for Meaning” by Viktor E. Frankl and “Something in Common: Horror; Survivors describe the Evils of Genocide” by Corey Kilgannon corroborate that hope is the main entity that pushes a man towards survival. As the first excerpt is from holocaust survivor, the second article is told from a whole new genocide. Taking into account that family is an important key for survival, hope is the main factor that will aid one to prevail through any disaster.

Daniel started the book with so much hatred towards the Romans but near the end of the book he realizes what he did to the Romans and Marcus, was wrong and he goes out to talk to him. Once he is finished he asks Marcus if he would like to come into his house and say “hi” to Leah. I still don’t think that all his anger towards the Romans has subsided, but I do believe that it has softened because he chose to treat his sister differently by putting Leah above himself. I believe this is a way that Daniel has changed throughout the book because he he shows kindness towards the Romans, he also does what's important to

Daniel’s life revolves around books since he lives above a library, works in a book shop and is always reading new stories. When Daniel turns eleven years old, his father takes him to a library called The Cemetery of Forgotten Books. Daniel’s father explains to him that whichever book he chooses, he must cherish it forever and that the book’s future is in Daniel’s hands. Daniel chooses a novel named The Shadow of the Wind, which he

He tells Daniel everything from his rape by the people he believed were on his side, to the only reason he actually got out of prison was because of a black man. From that story, Daniel realizes that having the “white” mentality was not the

He was characterized in the movie in two ways, he was seen by the people as an aggressive straight forward man, and a man of greed. To himself Daniel views himself as a powerful man, someone who doesn’t want anyone to have more power than him. Daniel is a static character, he doesn’t change and nothing dramatic happens to him in the story that changes him in a way that would affect how his attitude. For example after Daniel raises HW as his own he later tells him he isn’t his child and he never loved him. Throughout the movie Daniel shows many different character traits, for example he shows love and compassion , for HW when he was a child, fearlessness to his competition and enemies, determination for his dreams and goals to become a reality, and lastly he shows he doesn’t care about the mistakes and crimes he made.

From these you can conclude that Daniel's personality it more of a friendly and artless. This then explains why he thinks fate has brought them together and he has no control over

The page mostly covered in a foggy, dark gray, concealing the majority of the words, reveals only those descriptive of Daniel’s surrounding circumstance. Daniel, upon seeing the dream, realizes he must inform the King of his demise and, consequently his thoughts become deeply unsettling. He almost certainly could’ve faced execution, however, he knew he needed to trust God. Chapter 5, although upon first viewing will seem relatively scarce information, is an integral part of the story.
