In other novels‚ however‚ the novelist may create a character to stand in for the audience as the character communicates his traumatic story. In Maus by Art Spiegelman‚ the traumatic experience is being told by Spiegelman’s father and Spiegelman creates himself as a character in the book to be a stand-in for

Maus is a beautiful story about Holocaust survivor Vladek Spiegelman telling his son Artie his life during the Holocaust. After Maus 1’s first release in 1980 and Maus 2’s release in 1991‚ the two books have gained a lot of fans and attention which makes me wonder why Maus has not been turned into an animated TV series. I think that Maus in animated episodes would help bring the books to life‚ it would be a really easy movie with promising results‚ and it can potentially help expand the Maus franchise

Complete Maus is a compelling book written by Art Spiegelman. It was typically about a son who had interviewed his father‚ a lone survivor of the Holocaust. Art Spiegelman was the son of Vladek Spiegelman. He wrote this book because he wanted to know what his father’s life was like throughout the Holocaust‚ more about his mother Anna‚ and also‚ he felt very guilty that he was not alive until after the Holocaust had occurred. Throughout the book‚ readers will find images of the characters portrayed

Elie Wiesel’s Night and Art Spiegelman’s Maus are two greatly admired works of art which are flooded with the shocking dreadful summary of the Holocaust works. During the tenth grade one of my favorite books was Maus. Another one of my beloved stories was Night. Although they are very different‚ they also have similarities. Art Speilgman’s Maus is a comic book and it tells the tale of Vladek‚ Art’s father. Vladek and his wife Mala are survivors

Both The Visit and Maus are highly praised works of art that have a very wide and diverse audience because of their subject matter. Both pieces of work deal with dark subject matter in their own fields even though one is a play (The Visit) and the other is a graphic novel (Maus).

The allegory used in Maus helps me to understand the Holocaust more. Portraying the Jews as mice‚ the Nazis as cats and the Poles as pigs‚ has made the story easier to follow and understand. On page 138 there is a clear example of the allegory used throughout the entire book. When Vladek and Anja try to hide they put on pig masks to disguise themselves. This shows how the use of animals is very clever‚ as the reader can tell straight away that they are actually Jewish pretending to be Polish. The

In Spiegelman’s book‚ his portrait of The Jews as mice and The Nazi as cats is precisely how the Jews were treated‚ like animals whose lives were without much value.
