Reread the following sentences: “They were not so much responsible for the curse under which I was born, as the God of nature an

d the fathers who framed the Constitution for the United States. The law descended to them, and it was but natural that they should recognize it, since it manifestly was their interest to do so. And yet a wrong was inflicted upon me; a cruel custom deprived me of my liberty, and since I was robbed of my dearest right, I would not have been human had I not rebelled against the robbery.”

What other works of literature, art, or music do you know that convey a theme found in Night? Explain why you find this treatmen
Grace [21]

Answer:

please give brainliest i spent so long on this lol.

Explanation:

The movie Unbroken, based on the life and imprisonment of WWII soldier Louis Zamperini, closely parallels the themes seen in the book <em>Night </em>by Elie Wiesel. Both storylines are based on personal, true events of the narrator, with the movie portraying the harrowing details of a World War II soldier through a young actor's body. Both share themes of courage, perseverance, and through a first-person point of view, these pieces of art are able to put a lens up to the past. In the movie <em>Unbroken</em>, a WWII soldier gets captured and is forced into a Japanese war prisoner camp that tested its prisoners' emotional, mental, and physical strength. In <em>Night </em>by Elie Wiesel, the author shares his experiences as a Jewish prisoner in Auschwitz and Nazi concentration camps. Through their experiences and ability to convey this through visual media and material, both pieces share themes of suffering without hope and one's ability to persevere despite the odds against them.

Which sentence best demonstrates the use of an emdtional appeal in the adapted excerpt from John F. Kennedy's "Inaugural Address
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

"Americans born in this country, changed by ...has always been committed..."

Explanation:

The reason why this is a use of an emotional appeal is that it focuses on the pride that Americans have and the strong connection they have to their country. Another appeal to emotion would be, "...we are the heirs of that first revolution." a sense of strong American pride is shown here as well because of the emotional appeal of perseverance against the odds to fight for what you believe in.
