Elie Wiesel
Elie Wiesel was a great man as well as a humanitarian. His works told of the many harsh realities of Jewish life. Due to the way he was brought up in a strict family, where he was taught the importance of family ties, all those lessons helped him live through the concentration camps. All the lessons and experiences throughout his life contributed to his amazing writings. Elie Wiesel was born in the town of Sighet in northern Transylvania on September 30, 1928. His real name was Eliezer Wiesel. His family spoke Yiddish at home; they read newspapers and conducted their grocery business in German. Elie had begun religious studies in classical Hebrew almost as soon as he could speak. Elie’s life centered entirely on his religious studies. He loved the mystical tradition and folk tales of the Hassidic sect of Judaism, to which he and his family belonged. His father encouraged Elie to study the modern Hebrew language and to concentrate on his secular studies. The first years of World War II left Sighet untouched. Although the village changed hands from different countries, the Wiesel family believed they were safe from the persecutions suffered by the Jews in Germany and Poland.
