Using Night by Elie Wiesel, identify and explain at least one fact and one opinion that support the following theme: “In life-threatening circumstances, the instinct to survive overcomes everything else.”

Answer:

In Night by Elie Wiesel, there are many facts and opinions that support the theme that in life-threatening circumstances, the instinct to survive overcomes everything else.

One fact that supports this theme is the following excerpt: "The Kapos were beating us again, but I no longer felt the pain." This is a fact because describing the actions or behavior of individuals ("The Kapos were beating us again. . .") is a tool that authors of memoirs use to include facts. This excerpt reflects the theme because Wiesel is not reacting to the pain in a way that he would have normally had he not been in a concentration camp. Because he will likely continue to face this type of extreme pain, his body is reacting to the pain in a way that will help Wiesel to survive, more or less, intact. One opinion that supports this theme is the following excerpt: "Our senses were numbed, everything was fading into a fog. We no longer clung to anything." This is an opinion because author commentary and depictions of the author's thoughts are tools that authors of memoirs use to include opinions. This excerpt reflects the theme because it presents the senses of everyone in the camp as being "numbed," a way to help the mind deal with extreme circumstances.

I MET a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"

Read this excerpt from Rudolfo Anaya's essay "Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry."
Tortillas and poetry. They go hand in hand. Books nourish the spirit, bread nourishes our bodies. Our distinct
cultures nourish each one of us, and as we know more and more about the art and literature of the different cultures,
we become freer and freer....
I don't know anyone who doesn't like to sample different ethnic foods, the breads of many many groups; just as
many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world. I travel to foreign countries, and I know more
about myself as I learn more about my fellow human beings. Censorship imposes itself in my path of knowledge, and
that activity can be justified by no one.

Read this adapted excerpt from "The Third Philippic," written by Demosthenes in 342 B.C.:

It is this fate, I solemnly assure you, that I dread for you, when the time comes that you make your reckoning, and realize that there is no longer anything that can be done. May you never find yourselves, men of Athens, in such a position! Yet in any case, it were better to suffer greatly, than to do anything out of servility towards Philip [or to sacrifice any of those who speak for your good]. A noble recompense did the people in Oreus receive, for entrusting themselves to Philip’s friends, and thrusting Euphraeus aside! And a noble recompense the democracy of Eretria, for driving away your envoys, and surrendering to Cleitarchus! A noble clemency did he show to the Olynthians, who elected Lasthenes to command the cavalry, and banished Apollonides! It is folly, and it is cowardice, to cherish hopes like these, to give way to evil counsels, to refuse to do anything that you should do, to listen to the advocates of the enemy’s cause, and to fancy that you dwell in so great a city that, whatever happens, you will not suffer any harm.

Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust, sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee.

worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third Dawn came with ringlets shining
