The answer to this would be true.
Explanation:
''The Night'' is considering the description of a journey of a writer Elie Wiesel and his father in a concentration camp at Auschwitz.
- At the beginning of the book, his faith was different than at the end. At first, he was curious about the Jewish religion and God's death. <u>He had faith at the beginning, in God, in family, and humanity but later on he lost his faith in everything. </u>One of the moments in the book where we can see that that may be one of the beginning of losing his faith was when he heard one man behind him saying ''For God’s sake, where is God?’ And from within me, I heard a voice answer: ‘Where He is? This is where-hanging here from this gallows…” when the little boy was dying. At the end of the story, he lost his faith in everything and everyone. He was not the only one who lost his faith, all of the Jews were starting to lose their faith in God and families and later on faith in humanity. They were asking themselves “Were there still miracles on this earth?” and they have begun to think that there are no more good things on the earth. ''Never shall I forget that nocturnal silence which deprived me, for all eternity, of the desire to live. Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never'
- <em>a) </em>The first symbol that we can recognize when we are analyzing this Novel is a symbol of the title. <u>The Night</u> is symbolizing the death of an innocence, death of childhood, death and the end of faith, death of many people, death and the end of possible miracles. Since they lost their faith in God, the night also means a world without God and faith because they are representing brightness.''Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed. Never shall I forget that smoke. Never shall I forget the little faces of the children, whose bodies I saw turned into wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky.'' <em>b)</em>The second symbol is <u>fire</u> and <u>flames</u> of it. They are representing hell and tool for punishing them which brought them to losing his faith. ''Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever.''
- I think that no one can really understand what the author Elie Wiesel and other Jews experienced in the concentration camp. I consider that he did a great and successful job when he was describing his experience because he included every detail of it including God, miracles, and faith. I was feeling sad, anxious, curious and angry when I was reading this book. I hope that will never happen again and no one in this world should lose his faith.
