Norrator point of view about the life of an adult her culture in the "excerpt from minuk :ashes in the path way​

Explanation:

Hill's (The Year of Miss Agnes ) finely detailed novel set in a Yup'ik Eskimo village in the 1890s feels mesmerizingly authentic.

Minuk, the narrator, is 12 the spring that the missionary family arrives, and like the other children she is fascinated by the sight of her first kass'aq (white) woman and child. She can't imagine what the "sort of pink butterfly" hanging from the clothesline is (a corset, which astonishes her still further), and when Mrs. Hoff invites her inside for a cup of tea, she sits on a chair for the first time (and tips hers over) and slurps loudly, "to be polite." These initial misunderstandings may be comic, but the encounters between the Hoffs and the Yup'ik have grave consequences. Mr. and Mrs. Hoff condemn the villagers' rituals and practices. Yet, as seen through Minuk's eyes, the customs make sense, and Hill demonstrates that the Yup'ik belief systems are at least as coherent as Hoffs' version of Christianity ("If your god is love," Minuk asks Mr. Hoff, "why does he make people burn in hell?"). The author penetrates Yup'ik culture to such an extent that readers are likely to find the Hoffs more foreign than Minuk and her family. At the same time, the author doesn't glamorize the villagers, in particular exposing the severe conditions facing women. Not only the heroine but the vanished society here feel alive in their complexities. Ages 9-12. (Oct.)

What is the central theme (message) of Night by Elie Wiesel? How do the characters and their actions develop the theme? Use evid
rewona [7]

The main theme of "Night" by Elie Wiesel is the prevalence of religious faith. This theme is developed by the actions of Eliezer who struggles to keep his faith in God.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Eliezer grew up within the Jewish religion and was taught to believe in a kind and benevolent God.
  • This belief is the basis for Eliezer's faith, which made him believe that God would never forsake him.
  • however, during World War II and after suffering a lot in a concentration camp along with other Jews, Eliezer had his faith shaken.
  • He began to question whether God was kind and benevolent, as he looked like all Jews were helpless.

At the same time, Eliezer only had the religion and belief in God to cling to, but it was very difficult to maintain faith amid suffering.
