Today I read two articles in our campus newspaper, The Preface. I took a chance by skimming through on finding any articles that shared my point of view or that would capture interest from me. I was actually very pleased to find an article that I believe to be outstanding. It appears members from the Preface staff visited Washington, D. C. to see the National Holoc...

Hitler And Social Darwinism
1,172 wordsThough there are still some out there that try to deny it, the fact still remains that the Holocaust of WWII really did happen. How can anyone truthfully deny it? All the evidence is there. The concentration camps, the gash chambers, the documents, and lets not forget the millions of dead Jews, Gypsies, Negroes, and anyone else who opposed the evil known as the Nazis.

World War Holocaust Times

Not only did this affect the people who lived through it; it also affected everyone who was connected to those fortunate individuals who survived. The survivors were lucky to have made it but there are times when their memories and flashbacks have made them wish they were the ones who died instead of living with the horrible aftermath.

Nazi Doctor Past Tense Amis
802 wordsThe Point of Reversal Martin Amiss seventh novel, Times Arrow, or the Nature of the Offense is filled with echoes from the work of the great Holocaust writer Primo Levi. However from critical point of view, jokers laughing in the dark, poised between parody and bathos, humming with thoughts too deep for tears as well as other literary symbols recall Nabokov and Pynchon. For such writers, technique is discovery, not vain display, and their subjects are profound. In attempting a Holocaust novel, M...

Ursula Heigi Stones From the River clearly belongs to this category. It is a story of physically challenged girl Trudi Montag, who grows into adulthood during the time of Nazi rule in ...

Concentration Camp Prejudice Death
450 wordsPrejudice was the main factor that led to the holocaust. For some, resisting these forms of oppression was survival. Considering the dehumanizing the Nazis had forced upon the Jews, people took whatever courage and strength they had to get through this period of time. I believe luck also had a part to play in survival. Even though now prejudice is mostly name calling, 60 years ago it could mean death. Whether one is resisting the Nazis or just resisting prejudice in general, one must never give ...
