The sentence that best reveals the context is: "With the end of the cold war there was the creeping concern that without a focus for hatred and distrust, a sense of national identity would evaporate, that the left side of the hyphen—African-American, Mexican-American, Irish-American—would overwhelm the right."
By reading "...the end of the cold war...", the reader infers the time the story is set in. The Cold War started after the Second World War (1945) and ended in 1991 with the end of the Soviet Union.
In addition, by reading "...the left side of the hyphen - African-American, Mexican-American, Irish-American - would overwhelm the right", readers can deduce that the author is referring to the US and its fear of loosing a sense of nationalism and unity among its diverse population.
In all, the setting is the US in the early 90's because of the reference to the end of the Cold War and the fear of not being unified anymore.

In regards to the Ancient Greek Poem by Homer called "The Odyssey", the cyclops curse made it so that Odysseus would never make it home, but in the unlikely case that he did, it would take him so long that he would lose all those close to him. This would make life incredibly hard when he got home. The poet included this to most likely illustrate the stakes that were involved for Odysseus which would influence his actions.
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.
