Based on Wiesel’s speech, why do people “tell the tale” of the horrible events in the Holocaust?

Answers

Answer:

Answer down below!

Explanation:

People "tell the tale" of the Holocaust because history often repeats itself. People need to know these kinds of things because they dont want history to repeat. They also tell because if the people don't know, it will be forgotten, and the people whose lives were lost are forgotten as well.

Answer:

please give me brainiest

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel’s Acceptance Speech, on the occasion of the award of the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, December 10, 1986

It is with a profound sense of humility that I accept the honor you have chosen to bestow upon me. I know: your choice transcends me. This both frightens and pleases me.

It frightens me because I wonder: do I have the right to represent the multitudes who have perished? Do I have the right to accept this great honor on their behalf? … I do not. That would be presumptuous. No one may speak for the dead, no one may interpret their mutilated dreams and visions.

It pleases me because I may say that this honor belongs to all the survivors and their children, and through us, to the Jewish people with whose destiny I have always identified.

I remember: it happened yesterday or eternities ago. A young Jewish boy discovered the kingdom of night. I remember his bewilderment, I remember his anguish. It all happened so fast. The ghetto. The deportation. The sealed cattle car. The fiery altar upon which the history of our people and the future of mankind were meant to be sacrificed.

I remember: he asked his father: “Can this be true?” This is the twentieth century, not the Middle Ages. Who would allow such crimes to be committed? How could the world remain silent?

And now the boy is turning to me: “Tell me,” he asks. “What have you done with my future? What have you done with your life?”

And I tell him that I have tried. That I have tried to keep memory alive, that I have tried to fight those who would forget. Because if we forget, we are guilty, we are accomplices.

And then I explained to him how naive we were, that the world did know and remain silent. And that is why I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men or women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must – at that moment – become the center of the universe.

Of course, since I am a Jew profoundly rooted in my peoples’ memory and tradition, my first response is to Jewish fears, Jewish needs, Jewish crises. For I belong to a traumatized generation, one that experienced the abandonment and solitude of our people. It would be unnatural for me not to make Jewish priorities my own: Israel, Soviet Jewry, Jews in Arab lands … But there are others as important to me. Apartheid is, in my view, as abhorrent as anti-Semitism. To me, Andrei Sakharov‘s isolation is as much of a disgrace as Josef Biegun’s imprisonment. As is the denial of Solidarity and its leader Lech Walesa‘s right to dissent. And Nelson Mandela‘s interminable imprisonment.

There is so much injustice and suffering crying out for our attention: victims of hunger, of racism, and political persecution, writers and poets, prisoners in so many lands governed by the Left and by the Right. Human rights are being violated on every continent. More people are oppressed than free. And then, too, there are the Palestinians to whose plight I am sensitive but whose methods I deplore. Violence and terrorism are not the answer. Something must be done about their suffering, and soon. I trust Israel, for I have faith in the Jewish people. Let Israel be given a chance, let hatred and danger be removed from her horizons, and there will be peace in and around the Holy Land.

Yes, I have faith. Faith in God and even in His creation. Without it no action would be possible. And action is the only remedy to indifference: the most insidious danger of all. Isn’t this the meaning of Alfred Nobel’s legacy? Wasn’t his fear of war a shield against war?

There is much to be done, there is much that can be done. One person – a Raoul Wallenberg, an Albert Schweitzer, one person of integrity, can make a difference, a difference of life and death. As long as one dissident is in prison, our freedom will not be true. As long as one child is hungry, our lives will be filled with anguish and shame. What all these victims need above all is to know that they are not alone; that we are not forgetting them, that when their voices are stifled we shall lend them ours, that while their freedom depends on ours, the quality of our freedom depends on theirs.

This is what I say to the young Jewish boy wondering what I have done with his years. It is in his name that I speak to you and that I express to you my deepest gratitude. No one is as capable of gratitude as one who has emerged from the kingdom of night. We know that every moment is a moment of grace, every hour an offering; not to share them.

      There have been many attempts to save the whooping crane, an endangered species of crane. One of these includes "Operation Migration. The operation was designed to save the whooping crane. They helped the birds migrate to Florida by disguising a plane to look like one of the birds. They flew along with the flock, guiding them to where they were supposed to go. When they arrived they were put into a "release pen." The release pen just so happened to also be near the Gibbs' house. Being near humans and getting comfortable with them isn't good for the cranes, so representatives from Operation Migration told Mrs. Gibbs about the situation, asking her to remove the feeders from her backyard. She refused to move the feeders because her husband was suffering from Alzheimer's, and loved seeing the whooping cranes because it brought him joy. The story didn't get to the scientist's, but they had to back down in the end.

How is the experience of reading a dramatization of A Christmas Carol different from reading the original story? Analyze elements such as stage directions and dialogue. Use your reading notes and be sure to cite textual evidence in your response.

Answers

The experience of reading a dramatization of, "A Christmas Carol", is very different from reading the original story in many ways. For instance, there is more description of what's happening, and it also tells me more of what the words are meant to mean. A detail from the drama is on line 12-14 the text states, "Gravestone turns front and grows ten feet high. Words upon it: EBENEZER SCROOGE. Much smoke billows now from the grave."  By this evidence I can tell that there is much more detail in this drama, they add effects to make it seem more dramatic, this makes since because this is supposed to be a novel turned into a dramatic play.

In many ways, reading a dramatization of "A Christmas Carol" differs significantly from reading the original text.

What is a Christmas carol?

For instance, more of what's happening is described, and it also clarifies more of what the words' intended meanings are. Lines 12–14 of the book provide a dramatic detail: "The gravestone turns toward the front and rises 10 feet. It has the words Ebenezer Scrooge.

Now, a lot of smoke is rising from the grave." From this information, I can infer that this drama contains a lot more detail. They add effects to make it seem more dramatic, which makes sense given that this is a dramatic performance based on a novel.

Therefore, reading a dramatization of "A Christmas Carol" is very different from reading the original book in many respects.

The word Fascism has now no meaning except in so far as it signifies 'something not desirable.' The words democracy, socialism, freedom, patriotic, realistic, and justice have several different meanings which cannot be reconciled with one another. In the case of a word like democracy, not only is there no agreed definition, but the attempt to make one is resisted from all sides. It is almost universally felt that when we call a country democratic we are praising it: consequently, the defenders of every kind of regime claim that it is a democracy, and fear that they might have to stop using that word if it were tied down to any one meaning.

She and Antigone were utterly alone. All Thebes was exulting that the man who had brought war upon them should be thus terribly punished. "We are women," she told her sister. "We must obey. We have no strength to defy the State." "Choose your own part," Antigone said. "I go to bury the brother I love."
