  • Only Guiding Force In Levi's Survival
    1,663 words
    Reading the novel Survival in Auschwitz by author Primo Levi leads one to wonder whether his survival is attributed to his indefinite will to survive or a very subservient streak of luck. Throughout the novel, he is time and again spared from the fate that supposedly lies ahead of all inhabitants of the death camp at Auschwitz. Whether it was falling ill at the most convenient times or coming in contact with prisoners who had a compassionate, albeit uncommon, disposition, it would seem as though...

  • Structure Of Levi's Poetry
    2,250 words
    'Pain retold, is pain redoubled " What prompts someone to write about their suffering, and how do they convey a sense of their emotions to the reader? Primo Levi is a Holocaust war victim, a survivor from Auschwitz, who for years was plagued by guilt because he survived - a feeling that is passed on in Jewish tradition, which I understand being a fellow Jew. Jewish heritage is very important to all Jews; myself included, which is one reason why I can connect with the poet / author, his poems and...
  • Levi's Theories Of Memory Being
    1,915 words
    The Wonderful State of Memory Primo Levi, in The Drowned and the Saved, expresses theories of memory. My objective is to prove that Primo Levi's theories of memory being transitive and selective are correct. I will do this by examining and critiquing not only Levi's perspective on memory, but also those of other philosophers and psychoanalysts whose work explored the subject. Writer and chemist, survivor and witness, Primo Levi was born in Turin, Italy, in 1919. Like most Italian Jews of his gen...
