“...be subjected to torture or inhuman and degrading treatment (United Nations5)”. The jews didn’t get lots of food, they were very weak and ill but yet the Germans didn’t care those were their inhumane ways. Eliezer was getting beat in the concentration camps,” He threw himself on me like a wild beast, beating me in the chest, on my head...( Wiesel 53)” That’s degrading and somewhat torture towards a person. When prisoners were marching they also got beat out of nowhere. “ No one shall be…

people in the holocaust felt with no shoes and no socks. They had to walk barefoot in snow and in the mud. People threw their uniforms away that the Nazi’s gave them because it was infested with bugs and people was itching. Anne Frank was in a concentration with no shoes or no socks and walking in mud, she took and threw her clothes away because their was lice all over the uniform. She used a sleek of cloth to cover her body. She had a friend who was at the…

it didn’t hurt, but it hurt Elie because it was like the Gypsy didn’t care. Also it was like the Gypsy misunderstood his father or otherwise he wouldn’t have hit him.

But Elie Wiesel was able to survive and overcame the fears of losing family members, starvation, and the beatings the SS officers gave. So even though the rest of Elie’s family didn’t survive, these…

During World War II, many atrocities occurred to the Jews living all across Europe. Hitler created huge concentration camps so devastating they were stated to be “hell on earth.” The story of Elie Wiesel is a truly horrifying and emotional journey. During his stay in a selection of concentration camps, he has lost faith in his fellow man, god, and himself; making him nothing more than a mere skeleton of the young man he used to be. The book Night Wrote by Elie Wiesel himself is a personal…

I read the historical fiction novel, Milkweed by Jerry Spinelli. The book is told from the point of view of Misha.Misha is a gypsy boy who is in Poland during the Holocaust or World War2.During the story He “becomes” jewish and gets put in the ghetto with Janina. There are many lessons to be learned from this story, but one of the major ideas is friends can help you through anything. I believe that this is the theme of the story because Uri took him in. Another reason I believe this is he kept…

March 22,1933. Dachau was the first regular concentration camp established. Dachau served as a prototype and model for other Nazi concentration camps that followed.

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. Not only his the lack of deplorability in his story, but the objectivity. While the book is an autobiography, Wiesel does not wallow in self pity and how awful…

You would have to wear the Star of David. Also, you would get an I.D. Card which would have a "J" stamped across the first page, so that people could know where the person(Jew) was allowed to go. The Jews also had to go to Ghettos and then concentration camps; Last they would die literally or see a death of a loved/close one and get killed on the inside. We see these horrific practices in the following texts: "The Gestapo is Born,""I'm telling the story," and various video testimonies. In these…

Set at the end of WW2, Elie Wiesel spent his early years in a small Jewish community in Eastern Hungary as one of four children.
