    • 2 Pages

    Night‚ by Elie Wiesel‚ is a book narrating the harsh conditions Elie and his father went through in concentration camps‚ Auschwitz and Buchenwald‚ during the Holocaust. After reading and viewing many texts‚ I find Night to be of the most valuable based on it being historically important‚ Wiesel’s strong use of pathos‚ as well as making the audience see something that they haven’t considered before. The foremost merit for which this piece of text is valuable is the history it portrays. Because the

    Meeting at Night Robert Browning The grey sea and the long black land; And the yellow half-moon large and low; And the startled little waves that leap In fiery ringlets from their sleep‚ As I gain the cove with pushing prow‚ And quench its speed i’ the slushy sand. Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach; Three fields to cross till a farm appears; A tap at the pane‚ the quick sharp scratch And blue spurt of a lighted match‚ And a voice less loud‚ thro’ its joys and fears‚ Than the two hearts beating

    The night was silent. The half moon gazed down benevolently on the city‚ alone in a starless stretch of black sky. The streets were empty‚ and all that reached out into the shadowy darkness were the street lamps‚ placed so methodically and evenly it made them seem more significant than they really were. Near one of these lamps‚ on a bench‚ was an ancient man‚ his hair grey‚ his face was warped with deep wrinkles‚ a pair of round rimmed spectacles perched on his nose. His dull eyes‚ seeming to be
