Was Eric justified in killing Logan? Why or why not?
SAMPLE ANSWER: Eric was justified in killing Logan because the voices were too strong for Logan to overcome. ““Kill them!” Lizzie commanded. “Kill them now!” Logan lumbered toward the family that was still a dozen paces away, the steady stream of flashes from the sky lighting his way, the slashing axe, which was flickering as if lit by a strobe. “Thirty- three. Thirty- four.”” Logan continued to massacre the crowd and was drawn to the voices he heard. He would’ve continued if Eric had stood down and allowed

    Through encountering horrific events during his life, Elie Wiesel has discovered, “When a person doesn’t have gratitude, something is missing in his or her humanity”. Elie Wiesel was a survivor of the Holocaust; in May 1944, when Wiesel was only 15 years old, the Nazis deported him and his family to Auschwitz, a concentration camp in Poland. His mother and the youngest of his three sisters died at Auschwitz, while he and his father were later transported to another camp, Buchenwald, located in Germany. Throughout reading Night I’ve learned from the perspective of a victim himself how life-ruining the Holocaust had become.

    Elie Wiesel’s novel, Night, is another autobiography an experience during the Holocaust. What sets this book apart is Elie Wiesel’s own story. While many autobiographies from that time are full of torture and suffering, a pathetic life barely surviving until liberation, Elie’s story is different. He makes the decision to continue on with the harder path, not only against certain death, but against potential death. He does this when he decides to leave the camp with the rest of the prisoners even though he has recently undergone foot surgery.…

    Literate Arts can be fine for explaining a variety of historical, crucial events. Richard E. Miller, author of The Dark Night of The Soul employs texts to display how the literate arts can be beneficial for emphasizing the importance of historical catastrophic events. Moreover, Miller employed a variety of “how,” and “why” questions and how to respond to them in his writing to the public to engage them in a conversation and question their views on the literate arts. Furthermore, Miller asks questions about historical events that have happened over time and probably impacted billions of civilians, which in my opinion is one thing the literate arts is excellent at describing.…

    Looking back to the expanding history of the world, phenomenons leaning towards discrimination, including genocides, have repeated themselves in history, shaping the present and future of humanity. One of the more well-known genocides is the Holocaust, which occurred during World War II under Adolf Hitler and claimed over six million lives, both Jewish and non-Jewish, from 1941 to 1945. The experience of the Holocaust is detailed in Elie Wiesel’s memoir Night, where he describes his life during the Holocaust and the troubles he had faced. A more recent yet similar event to the Holocaust was the Rwandan genocide in 1994, where one hundred days left thousands of Hutus slaughtered at the hands of the opposing Tutsis. Many sources, including an…

    Eric can get violent but so can Mabel. Her own aggressive tactics intensifies the fights into far more dangerous proportions: “Mostly, it [is] kicks and slaps but, sometimes, when she [turns] on him, they [fight] with fists and feet, teeth and nails” (Valgardson 60). Eric no longer sees his own actions as unhealthy because Mabel reflects them and retaliates. By no means should Mabel simply accept Eric’s abuse but her method of handling it only endangers both of their lives. No doubt, the other characters in “The Box-Social” and “Celebration” harbour some of the blame in influencing Sylvia and Eric’s choices.…

    The use of light and darkness is present through the entire work of Edgar Allan Poe. Indeed, from the very start of the story, light and darkness are both present in text as an ensemble. The character of William Wilson first speaks about his childhood in a “misty-looking village of England” with “chilliness of its deeply-shadowed avenues” and “dusky atmosphere”. Those elements present a state of in-betweenness with the light and darkness, emplacing on a grey environment balanced on the duality between light -the day- and the darkness –the night- : “The morning's awakening, the nightly summons to bed”. However, those elements became distinct when William Wilson met his double.…
