    “Night” by Elie Wiesel – Personal Responses Chapter 1 • Moché the Beadle’s story is very disturbing. He had experienced horrible atrocities and risked his life to warn his fellow townspeople. However‚ the latter did not believe him yet alone listen to him. They called him the madman. This passage is hard for the reader‚ who knows what is going to happen to the Jews later on (situational irony). Moché was also foreshadowing what was going to happen to the Jews.

    British Literature Hinkley 8 Dec. 2012 Personal Response Jane Austen’s novel‚ Pride and Prejudice‚ is a great representation of how life in the 1800s would have been. Placement in society played a major role and most of her characters only did what society permitted them to do. The people who you were surrounded around either broke you or made you an influence on the town. The women seemed to look only for someone to marry them‚ not for someone to love them. The women in this novel‚ searched

    Tab: Laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier is a great honor and responsibility that I would like to experience. In doing so I would be able to convey how I believe my family‚ friends‚ and school‚ should be represented. This opportunity is once in a lifetime and very unique in a way that it shows others a tender viewpoint of our freshman class‚ and not just a group of rowdy 15 year olds.

    If someone does not possess a conscience or any morals‚ then all of their actions can be considered reasonable to them‚ but evil by society.
