Elie Wiesel and the Art of Storytelling

Elie Wiesel and the Art of Storytelling
- Used Book in Good Condition
Elie Wiesel is a master storyteller with the ability to use storytelling as a form of activism. From his landmark memoir Night to his novels and numerous retellings of Hasidic legends, Wieselâ€™s literature emphasizes storytelling, and he frequently refers to himself as a storyteller rather than an author or historian. In this work, essays examine Wieselâ€™s roots in Jewish storytelling traditions; influences from religious, folk, and secular sources; education; Yiddish background; Holocaust experience; and writing style. Emphasized throughout is Wieselâ€™s use of multiple sources in an effort to reach diverse audiences.
