Study Questions

Directions: Save this document to your computer. After you have finished reading Night by Elie Wiesel, compose your answers in the space provided. The answer boxes will expand as you type.

Your responses should be in the form of detailed paragraphs. A well-written paragraph is at least five sentences. Each question will require more than one paragraph to fully answer. Use specific examples from the book to support your claims.


1. Dehumanization is the process by which the Nazis gradually reduced the Jews to little more than "things" which were a nuisance to them. Discuss at least three specific examples of events that occurred which dehumanized Eliezer, his father, or his fellow Jews.



2. After Eliezer’s father was beaten by Idek, a Kapo, Eliezer says, "I had watched the whole scene without moving. I kept quiet. In fact, I was thinking of how to get farther away so that I would not be hit myself. What is more, any anger I felt at that moment was directed, not against the Kapo, but against my father. I was angry with him, for not knowing how to avoid Idek’s outbreak. That is what concentration camp life had made of me." Discuss what the last line signifies. Discuss how his attitude had changed.



3. Discuss why you think the townspeople remained complacent despite the advance of the German army.



4. Discuss why Eliezer lied to Stein, his relative, about Stein’s family. Discuss whether you think he was morally right.



5. Discuss the significance of "night" in the novel. Cite examples from the story to support your answer.




6. Explain the author’s meaning when he says after the handing of the youth from Warsaw that "the soup tasted excellent that evening," yet after the pipel was hanged, "the soup tasted of corpses."

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I only know a few of the answers, so I will give them to you in a short answer format, based on which you can construct your paragraph. I hope it helps!

Explanation:

1. Three examples:

a. Beating up his father with an iron bar for doing nothing wrong (Page 54)

b. Whipping Elie on the crate in front of all of the inmates, after Elie accidently caught him having you know what with the young Polish girl. (Page 57)

c. Having sons throw their fathers in furnaces (Chapter 3)

2. The last line meant that Elie was no longer the Elizer that he used to be. He's like a total stranger. Elie was angry at his father for being weak and not for defending himself. He probably believed that showing you're strong can prevent you from being beaten up.

3. The townspeople thought that the Germans wouldn't reach their town. However, they were wrong though. Furthermore, the Germans approached with such kindness that they believed in every single word they said. Also, the people were kinda like outcasts..

4. Elizer lied to Stein because he thought it would pain Stein if he finds out that his family were probably dead. Besides, his family was his reason to survive. He was happy when he thought his family were okay. -> He was weeping with joy. (pg.44) Elie's mother hasn't received a letter from her niece since 1940.

5. The significance of "night" in the novel is that its a symbol of darkness. Remember night means dark and stuff like that? Well, while Elie was in the camp he struggled to survive. In this place, it is every man for himself, and you cannot think of other. Not even your father. (pg.110)

6. Second quote means that Elie saw a young boy be killed in front of many people. He was so young. Death was around Elie. (I am not sure about this one though...)

Towards the end of chapter 22, Salinger includes the text of the poem by Robert Burns. What is the meaning of the poem? What meaning does Holden attach to the poem? Why is the novel titled The Catcher in the Rye? noo links pls or I will report

Answers

Answer:

Chapter 22:

Holden based this position on his misinterpretation of Robert Burns' poem "Comin' Thro' the Rye," in which he envisions a field of rye surrounded by a cliff and swarming with joyously playing children. There are no other adults there, and he must keep an eye out for and apprehend any youngster who wanders near the cliff. That is, he wishes he could save the innocent, carefree years of childhood. If Phoebe had a problem with Holden's motive, she would express it, but all she says is, "Daddy's going to kill you," implying that she is aware that Holden's plan is unworkable. Childhood is not a secure, enclosed period. It, like other ages, is susceptible to suffering, disappointment, and death. Phoebe is keener than Holden in her recognition of this truth.

Explanation:

What does the title " The Catcher in the Rye " mean?

Holden aspires to be the one who prevents youngsters from jumping from cliffs and living miserable lives.

According to Mercutio's logic, what would Queen Mab make a doctor dream about?

performing successful surgery and saving a life

performing expensive surgery and getting a big paycheck

falling in love with a nurse

a nurse falling in love with him

Answers

According to Mercutio's logic, Queen Mab would make a doctor dream about performing expensive surgery and getting a big paycheck.

In Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet," Mercutio gives a speech about Queen Mab, the fairy who supposedly visits people in their dreams. According to Mercutio's description, Queen Mab would visit a doctor in his dreams and make him dream about performing expensive surgeries and getting a big paycheck.

This reflects Mercutio's belief that people's dreams are influenced by their desires and ambitions, and that Queen Mab is a manifestation of these unconscious desires.

Appalachian Trail, would it make sense for Miguel to announce that he was a
new person? Explain.

Answers

It makes sense for Miguel to claim that he is a new person after the hike he took along the Appalachian Trail.

We can arrive at this answer because:

During this walk, Miguel had many experiences that changed the way he sees the world and himself.This walk made him know himself better and can transcend, modifying negative behaviors and thoughts.

With that, we can say that Miguel has changed through this journey and this change has transformed him into a different person, so he is correct in stating that he is another person.
