Group Reader Response #2




1) Critical Stance:
            a) Dehumanization means to deprive human qualities, personality, or spirit.
b) In the beginning of the book they were normal human beings but going through the concentration camps they slowly changed. They changed from seeing the concentration camps being treated so harshly and almost facing death so many times that they start to become former shells of themselves and become dehumanized.
c) When Elizer goes to the first concentration camp he still has hope but when they start to see that there is no escape he loses hope and also stops believing in god

2) Dialectical Journal Entries:
a) You can tell that in both of the questions I answered in number one it is all about the Jewish people loosing hope and starting to give up.  One quote is “I started to not believe in god” this is an important quote because it shows they are losing hope and also the are no longer human because they don’t try to be hopeful.
