Women to the right!”. He was unable to forget these words because this was the moment he left his mother and sister. This helps explain why Elie and his father cling together because they are scared off losing each other and one of them dying. ]]> 2022-01-31 13:40:24 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2021246552 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2021260160 Dr. Mengele “looked like a typical SS officer: a cruel, though not unintelligent, face, complete with monocle”(Wiesel 31)]]> 2022-01-31 13:46:46 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2021260160 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2021330805 Elie finds it hard to prey because he is feeling like what has his god done to help them “Why should I sanctify His name? The Almighty, the eternal and terrible Master of the Universe, chose to be silent. What was there to thank Him for?”(Weisel 33) ]]> 2022-01-31 14:18:09 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2021330805 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2022058400 Elie responded by standing there and being petrified, he did not do anything. “ I stood petrified. What had happened to me? My father has just been struck, in front of me, and I had not even blinked. I had watched and kept silent. Only yesterday, I would have duh my nails into this criminal’s flesh”(Wiesel 39). This shows that they have been dehumanization and Elie did not want to be hit either. ]]> 2022-01-31 19:09:29 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2022058400 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2023327032 Elie’s father lied to his relative from Antwerp and said that they just saw them and the kids and Reizel are safe. The “real news” is the two boys are probably way to young to be put in the line to the right and Reizel is going to the left because of her gender. This means they probably all died. ]]> 2022-02-01 13:43:22 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2023327032 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2023349992 The veteran prisoners respond by yelling and being rude to Elie and his father. ““Shut up, you moron, or I’ll tear you into pieces! You should have hanged yourselves rather than come here. Didn’t you know what was in store for you here at Auschwitz? You didn’t know? In 1944?””(Weisel 30). I think that this guy has probably gone crazy mentally and that he is upset that more people are coming. I think I lot of over prisoners are going to act like this because they are so upset and how the world has came to this point and all the new people showing up are helping. ]]> 2022-02-01 13:54:26 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2023349992 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2023407291 I believe Elie’s relationship with his father has changed in one big way. Elie and his father disagreed in the beginning of this novel about reading the Kabbalah. “One day I asked my father to find me a master who could guide me in my studies of the Kabbalah. “You are too young for that. Maimonides tells us that one must be thirty before venturing into the world of mysticism””(Weisel 4). This stated they do not share the same opinions about what point in the life to read this religious book. In chapter three Elie and his father will not leave each other sides. After they were questioned by Dr. Mengele Elie wanted to see what line they would have put his father. “The baton pointed to the left. I took half a step forward. I first wanted to see where they would send my father. Were he to have gone to the right, I would have run after him”(Weisel 32). This illustrates that Elie and his father would do what ever it takes to stay with one another. Elie’s relationship has changed with his father because they were once in a normal small conflict with each other and now they are stuck on one another to save both of their life’s. ]]> 2022-02-01 14:19:56 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2023407291 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2025394966 “Men to the left!

Because of this, Elie has lost faith that their even is a higher power, or if there is one, that it has his best interest in mind at all. ]]> 2022-02-07 03:58:27 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2032221732 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2032224469 He had no response to his father being brutally beaten, both physically and mentally. He releases after the fact that after only spending a day at the camp that he had already become desensitized to the people closest to him suffering. This means the camp has made him a cold and uncaring shell, exactly it’s intention. ]]> 2022-02-07 04:00:48 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2032224469 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2032230136 He lies to the relative because the truth, which was they had not heard from his wife and children in many years, was too brutal of a reality to come to terms with in an already hellish environment.

However in chapter 3, his father is broken and weeping on the floor of the camp. “He didn’t answer. He was weeping. His body was shaking. Everybody around us was weeping.” (Wiesel 33). However, it must be noted that everyone else has broken down like Elie’s father. And this is where I can not only highlight the difference in their relationship, but what these concentrations camps did to the psyches of the people that entered them. Everyone was reduced to nothing but a number, a person to get hard labor done. And this not just what the Nazis thought of the people in the camps, it’s what they made themself believe. Elie and his father could no longer have a nuanced relationship, because they had both been reduced to nothing, shells of their former self.]]> 2022-02-07 04:21:48 UTC https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2032248988 https://padlet.com/brian_rawlins/kxonkgktl9vnx3a8/wish/2032277153 The words are “Men to the left, women to the right.” He is unable to forgot these words because this was the moment where he last saw his mother.
