The disconnection from the other ranch workers while mainly the fault of Curly, causes Curly’s wife to be in complete isolation from anyone but him. Since there are no other women on the entire ranch she is seen…

Due of the feeling of disconnection and doubt of the God he once believed in, Elie Wiesel progressively becomes a more individualistic person during his traumatic confinement in the concentration camps. During his imprisonment in the concentration camps, Wiesel feels a…

To start, one would need to think about their own cultural identity and how it will exist in the future.

Tasca, G., 2016). When these attachments are stable, they are “a safe haven in times of stress and a secure base” (Wiebe, S. & Johnson, S., 2017).
