Elie Wiesel

Wiesel feels a mix of guilt and disgust after each hanging, finding it difficult to enjoy his evening meal. The juxtaposition of witnessing a hanging and then eating a meal creates a sense of moral conflict and unease for him. The food loses its appeal in the aftermath of such traumatic events.

To get his foot recovered. His foot swelled up twice the size of his normal foot because of the cold weather. Hope it helps!!!!!!

They both take place during WW2 and depict the persecution of the Jews and the concentration camps.

Like many surnames in the USA the name Mize is often the result of European names being changed when people immigrated. Names like Mize, Mizee, Mizell, Mizer, Mizner, and others may have resulted from American Immigration workers not being able to spell the names being given to them by immigrants. You really have to trace back your family tree to find out whether your name was Mize originally or if it became Mize the day your ancestors stepped off the boat.

In my case I was able to trace the name back to two brothers who were given a land grant in the 1600's. They appear to have come from the Mizen Head area of Ireland when the name Mize implied that you were from Mizen Head. At some point those people were reported to have come to Ireland from the region this is now France near the Italian border. And if you look at that part of France there are a few towns that have names that start with Miz.

However, there is also a Mizen Head Hotel in Bamburgh, Northumberland in the UK. Its on the coast, roughly halfway between Newcastle and Edinburgh. I haven't done any research on that yet.

Hope this helps.

Wiesel never tells us the fate of Yossi and Tibbi.

Yes he did. He wrote it to share with others what experiences in the holocaust were like. The book was first published in 1958.

Many times in the book, the most terrible or significant things happen during night time. It is night when they were first told about the deportation of the Jews, it was night when they arrived in Auschwitz, and it was night when they ran over 50 miles to Buna. In the beginning of the bible, the earth is dark. Then God creates light. The world in darkness is signifying a world with out God. God created light, so light is present, so is God. When it is dark, God isn't there. Partially because of this, Elie struggles to maintain faith in his God. He doubts God's presence, benevolence, and even existence because of how they are treated in the camps. God surly would have stopped that.

This is just what I learned in my English class but I believe a better answer can be found if you visit the sparknotes website:

The rations at each meal consisted on coffee (in the mornings), and thick soup. Every now and again there is a mention of rough bread, some of which is smuggled in by a relative they found in the camp. This is the chapter which mostly deals with all the negatives in the camp. It is very consistent in tone and form in that Wiesel just keeps going and telling his story with not much introspection, but more fact.

Franek is Eliezer's foreman at Buna. Franek notices Eliezer's gold tooth and gets a dentist in the camp to pry it out with a rusty spoon.

Elie thought that everyone in the infirmary would be killed because the Nazi's didn't need sick people, they couldn't work.

Elie Wiesel and his father were marched from Auschwitz III (Monowitz/Buna) to Buchenwald.

Buna. :) Hope this helps.

The Holocaust camps differed in the ways they treated prisoners after they passed the selection that degrades and dehumanizes them. Sometimes the prisoners were forced to do hard labor and other times they were killed.

work is liberty.

about three weeks

In May 1944 he was sent to Auschwitz III (also known as) Buna or Monowitz) and then moved under appalling conditions in January 1945 to Buchenwald.

Obviously because he had seen many people dying just before he got his ration. Food doesn't taste good if you just saw someone being killed.

^^^

The answer above is not correct. It is not correct because earlier in the story after other men were hung he said "I remember on that evening, the soup tasted better than ever...", because they were so hungry. The actual reason the soup tasted like corpses when the young boy was hung is because children symbolize innocence, and the boy being hung showed a loss of innocence.

From May 1944 at age 15 till January 1945, after that he and thousands walked a death march to Buchenwald until he was liberated on 11 April 1945 at age 16. (according to his autobiography "Night")

It sounds as if you are thinking of Elie Wiesel and the book Night. However, the award was not made simply for that one book. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, not the Nobel Prize for Literature.

They went to Buchenwald.

He didnt do anyhin bd it was just he had to be taken away is all. ___ He was taken from his home town, Sighet, on 16 May 1944 and transported to Auschwitz.

In 1947, he began to study French with a tutor. By chance, Wiesel's sister, Hilda, saw his picture in a newspaper and got in touch with him. Months later, Wiesel was also reunited with his sister Bea in Antwerp. I found this at: http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/biography/Wiesel.html

Night stands for peacefulness, and not darkness. night can be and usually is calm and soothing, with the moon's glow and the star's light i have to try hard not to smile. night is not scary like people believe, and it is not equal to emptiness, loneliness, and/or evil. it is a place and/or time where/when somebody can be themselves and nobody can see, and they won't be made fun of. beautiful creatures roam the night, such as the owl and wolf. both beautiful, but misunderstood animals. so in conclusion: night symbolizes peace, love, independence, and beauty. NOT evil, emptiness, or darkness.

^^Dont know who wrote that but clearly they didnt read the question thoroughly.

But anyways, in literature night symbolizes death.

1945, when Buchenwald was liberated.

Elie Wiesel was born and grew up in Sighet, which was in Romania when he was born (1929). In 1940 that part of Romania was transferred to Hungary.

In March 1944 Germany forced Hungary to accept a Nazis into the government. They started sending Jews to Auschwitz ... Elie Wiesel's family was Jewish and was deported to Auschwitz.
