Look again at the opening pages of Night. When it begins, twelve-year-old Eliezer lives in the Transylvanian village of Sighet w

ith his parents and sisters. How does being introduced to such people alter your understanding of the fact that, a half- century ago, six million Jews were exterminated in the Holocaust? How is this sickening truth achieved through Night’s dual purposes of memoir and history? If this is a story of one person’s journey as well as a history of one horrendous part of World War II, how do the plot and the theme of the book overlap? How does the author blend the personal and the universal aspects of Night? In what ways does Wiesel relate not only his own nightmarish memory of the Holocaust but also humanity’s? (5 pts.)

Night gives a firsthand record of the holocaust, which is told from memories of E. Wiesel. Throughout the story, details of losing family members, harsh living conditons, and massive loss of life all show a smaller piece of the whole theme of WWII; It was a very bloody war in which there was no true winner. Battles left cities reduced to rubble, and both sides (each individual country) faced severe casualties. Even though Elie survived, he lost everything he loved in the process, like so many others from many different countries.

If you were directing the play, how would you suggest that the actor playing Walter portray a happiness "deep within him"? Pleas
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

For the script, I would suggest the following edits which can then be played out onstage:

Make sure to add that he is smiling, and describe his "wiggling" in more detail, such as restless legs, bopping his head, etc. Maybe even describe his face as "glowing with excitement" or something like that. Additionally, I would even suggest describing his attire. Bright-colored, cheery clothing would help in this case, as clothing and colors symbolize a lot as far as one's mood (yellow is often considered the happiest color).

A tip that I've been given that has helped me a lot is to describe the scene in such detail that the actor/audience can vividly picture what you, as the director, are trying to portray. Hope this helps! Good luck! :)

Which excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone shows a cause-and-effect relationship? “The group traveled up the Nile in two
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

<em>Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history.</em>

Explanation:

The cause-and-effect relationship is a type of relationship where one thing or event makes another one happen. The first thing/event is referred to as the cause, and its consequence is the effect.

The excerpt from<em> The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone </em>that shows this relationship is the fourth one: <em>Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history.</em>

We have two events - the 19th-century scholars mastering the three kinds of Egyptian writing, and them having the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history. The former is the cause of the latter: if they didn't master Egyptian writing, they wouldn't know that much about Egyptian history.
