1. While the majority of this memoir deals with man’s inhumane or brutal treatment of man, one could make the argument that there is much in this story to show us what makes a human being a human being.  Based on your reading of this memoir, what are the good qualities of a human being?  Use specific support from the story to support your ideas.



Make sure that you include:

Night

Oprah’s interview

Elie’s Nobel Peace Prize Speech

The Most Dangerous Game





2. Why would Elie Wiesel say that the most dangerous and destructive thing to mankind is NOT hatred, but rather indifference? 



Make sure that you include:

Night

The Hangman

Oprah’s interview

Elie’s Nobel Peace Prize Speech



3. Many characters in Night are transformed into brutal savages due to the inhumane treatment they experience. Is the same true for Elie? Does he remain morally and spiritually in tact or does he become a bestial creature?  Explain and support your views with specific quotes/ actions


Make sure that you include:

Night

The Hangman

Oprah’s interview

Elie’s Nobel Peace Prize Speech




4. In many ways, Night explains Elie Wiesel’s spiritual journey with faith and belief  Explain his relationship with God at the beginning of the book vs. the end.  Spiritually, how has he changed, if at all?

Make sure that you include:


Night

Oprah’s interview with Elie Wiesel
