Presentation Transcript

  1. 10/15 • Please get out your Bell Ringer Sheet. We will be discussing the cartoon that we analyzed yesterday.

  2. 10/15 • Please get out the NightGroup Work Handout and the Section 4 Worksheet that was homework for last night.

  3. Irony • A Jewish patient in the infirmary tells Wiesel: “I have more faith in Hitler than in anyone else. He alone has kept his promises, all his promises, to the Jewish people” (81). • “After the war, I learned the fate of those who had remained at the infirmary. They were, quite simply, liberated by the Russians, two days after evacuation” (82).

  4. Dehumanization • “A man appeared, crawling snakelike in the direction of the cauldrons” (59). • “Poor hero committing suicide for a ration or two or more of soup . . . “ • How is this an example of dehumanization? How does Wiesel emphasize this with the diction (language) he uses?

  5. Loss of Faith • Read from the last paragraph on pg. 66 to the middle of pg. 68 (paragraph ending with . . . I felt like an observer, a stranger.” • After reading, identify a quotation that you believe captures the theme, loss of faith, particularly well and explain how this reflects Wiesel’s shifting spirituality.

  6. HW Example • Example of a simile on pg. 62: • “Like a sword, the order cut through the air” • Wiesel compares the Kapo’s order for the prisoners to take their caps off after the hanging of the young man to a sharp weapon. This comparison illustrates the fierceness of the Kapo and the pain that this moment inflicts upon Wiesel.
