Instinct, Intelligence, Adaptability, and Ingenuity are equally used within the novels I’ve read by the protagonists inside of the novels. The ways in which Instinct, Intelligence, Adaptability, and Ingenuity is used within my Summer Reading Novel is explained in the following paragraph. Over the long and seemingly endless summer, I read a book that that told the struggle of dealing with an eating disorder and overcoming the death of a close friend. The protagonist of the novel (Lia Anderson), felt apathetic towards the pain she committed on her body via cutting and starving herself from the beginning of the novel until the very end of the novel. The ways in which Adaptability is helpful happen to be in my novel Night, which states from the main character’s point of view, that even through days, weeks, and months of torture, the protagonist and his father seem to have now become apathetic to the torture of their fellow men, women, and children.…
Elie Wiesel’s well-known book Night is based on his own terrifying experience with his father at the Nazi Germany concentration camps of Auschwitz and Buchenwald from 1944 to 1945 in the midst of the Holocaust and the Second World War. In as little as 100 short pages of scarce and fragmented narrative, he writes about the demise of God and loss of humanity, which is reflected in the inversion of the father son relationship as Wiesel’s father’s gradually declines into a state of despair and Elie becomes his indignant caregiver. The memoir tells more than just a story: it tells of the loss of spirit, faith the horror of death and continuing to live with the horrible memoires that continue to haunt…
The chapter begins with the family of Eliezer heading towards an "unknown location." Throughout this journey, the protagonist becomes more aware of this situation and evolves into a different person altogether. I think from the moment Eliezer's family had been on that train; there has been a significant change in the outlook for the future of their family. Eliezer sort of went from believing everything, to being more ignorant and hopeless about his situation. As stated, everyone ignored Ms. Schäcther who repeatedly said something related to a fire around them, "The fire over there!"…

The Book Night was intended to teach its readers the sorrow, horrors, and personal experiences of Elie Wiesel and the Holocaust itself. My poem has 1-2 titles and a couple of words and symbols to summarize the important symbols and representations of each chapter. I believe my poem does properly convey the message of the memoir. I can easily identify how smushed each Jew had to be to the millions of others, the rations of bread and the importantoce of soup made, the pipel boy or their Gods execution, and the immense loss of hope, and resurgance of it.…

When he first arrives at Auschwitz, he has to “throw [his] clothes at one end of the barracks” (32) and the SS officers “shaved off all the hair” (33) from his body. This is the first blow to Elie’s identity, because he is just another shaved prisoner in the same dirty striped clothes.…

One reason the Holocaust was the worst genocide in the world is the Nazis killed people of any age. One piece of evidence that shows this is “They were burning something.…
In Elie Wiesel's Night, symbolism is utilized to demonstrate the dehumanization of the Jewish individuals by the Nazis as the Jews build up a survival mindset, and as Eliezer loses the competency to express feelings. Wiesel utilizes symbolism of the Jews survival mindset to demonstrate the dehumanization of the Jews who were constrained to persevere through treacherous conditions in the death camps. The subjugated Jews encounter the most exceedingly bad types of heartless treatment. As the Coalesced States Holocaust Memorial Museum explains, "Waffen SS, killed more than a million Jewish men, women, and children, and hundreds of thousands of others". In Night, Wiesel uses the Holocaust to build up the subject dehumanization as a weapon against…
