Group Reader Response LC #2:  Dialectical Journal Practice

This is an individual assignment, but you may discuss the questions with others in your team.  Be sure that whatever answers you come up with are written in your own words.

1. Critical Stance:  Wiesel chronicles the gradual dehumanization of the prisoners.
1. First, define “dehumanization”
2. Then, describe the behavior of the various prisoners that shows their gradual transformation from their normal behavior as human beings.
3. Last, describe the behavior of Eliezer, the changes that he notices and his response to them.
2. Dialectical Journal Entries

1. Find quotations for each of the comments you have made in question #1
2. Share these amongst group members so that you each have a complete DJ upon which you can rely for the following weeks’ discussions.
