Basis for Wiesel's work is his own experiences and personal testament of the destruction of Jews during World War II. A survivor of the horrors of the Holocaust, Wiesel has been considered "a messenger to mankind... The message is in the form of a testimony, repeated and deepended through the works of a great author." (from the Nobel Peace citation) Central themes in Wiesel's fiction, memoirs, and essays are the struggle against evil, "man's inhumanity toward man", and silence versus verboseness. "How can one work for the living without by that very act betraying those who are absent? The question remains open, and no new fact can change it. Of course, the mystery of good is no less disturbing than the mystery of evil. But one does not cancel out the other. Man alone is capable of uniting them by remembering." (from A Beggar in Jerusalem Elie Wiesel was born in Sighet, Romania. "Sighet was a typical shtetl, a sanctuary for Jews," Wiesel has said. It was also center for Hasidic Jewish learning. Wiesel spent a happy childhood. He learned Yiddish from his mother and father, and studied biblical Hebrew in school. In 1944 all Jews from the town were moved to Auschwitz, where his mother and younger sister were killed. Wiesel was sent to Buchenwald, where his father was died shortly before Buchenwald's liberation. Three children from the family survived, Wiesel was one of them.

SUMMARY A New Translation From The French By Marion Wiesel Night is Elie Wiesel's masterpiece, a candid, horrific, and deeply poignant autobiographical account of his survival as a teenager in the Nazi death camps. This new translation by Marion Wiesel, Elie's wife and frequent translator, presents this seminal memoir in the language and spirit truest to the author's original intent. And in a substantive new preface, Elie reflects on the enduring importance of Night and his lifelong, passionate dedication to ensuring that the world never forgets man's capacity for inhumanity to man. Night offers much more than a litany of the daily terrors, everyday perversions, and rampant sadism at Auschwitz and Buchenwald; it also eloquently addresses many of the philosophical as well as personal questions implicit in any serious consideration of what the Holocaust was, what it meant, and what its legacy is and will be.

ELIE WIESEL NOBEL PRIZE SPEECH BOOKS BY ELIE WIESEL ABOUT US ... HOME PAGE Elie Wiesel was born in 1928 in Sighet, Transylvania, which is now part of Romania. He was fifteen years old when he and his family were deported by the Nazis to Auschwitz. His mother and younger sister perished, his two older sisters survived. Elie and his father were later transported to Buchenwald, where his father died shortly before the camp was liberated in April 1945. After the war, Elie Wiesel studied in Paris and later became a journalist.

var base_url = "http://www.lotsofessays.com/"; Arts Business Custom Research Economics ... Login Night by Elie Wiesel Elie Wiesel's autobiographical acc Elie Wiesel's autobiographical account of his life through the period of the Holocaust, Night, is a terrifying account of the horrors of that period through the eyes of a child who sees his family killed and whose own spirit is sorely tested even these many years later as he looks back on these events. The book is powerful and affecting, and it also serves as a very strong portrayal of the entire era of which the Holocaust is a part. This book presents the real effects of history, not the changes in leadership and the movements of armies but the changes in the lives of real individuals who become the victims of other people's hatreds an ambitions. The book can also be seen as an exploration of personal identity and an attempt for one man to come to grips with the fact that he has survived while so many did not. The book illustrates aspects of the horrors of the Holocaust and complements other writings on that time in history, some by victims and others by observers. The book suggests much about the relationship between the Germans and the Jews during this era in history. The book first appeared in 1958 in France, and it was neither the first book on the Holocaust to reach the French public nor the first book written by a very young person on the subject:

Sept. 30, 1928, Sighet, Romania), Romanian-born American novelist whose works provide a sober yet passionate testament of the destruction of European Jewry during World War II. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1986. Wiesel's early life, spent in a small H asidic community in the town of Sighet, was a rather hermetic existence of prayer and contemplation and was barely touched by the war. But in 1944 all the Jews of the town, including Wiesel and the other members of his family, were deported by the Nazis to Auschwitz, where his mother and younger sister were killed. He was then sent as a slave labourer to Buchenwald, where his father was killed. After the war he settled in France, studied at the Sorbonne (1948-51), and wrote for French and Israeli newspapers. Wiesel went to the United States in 1956 and was naturalized in 1963. He was a professor at City College of New York (from 1972), and from 1976 he was professor of humanities at Boston College.
