Elie Wiesel: teacher, mentor, and friend : reflections by judges of the Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity Ethics Essay contest. Edited by Alan L. Berger ; foreword by Irving (Yitz) Greenberg ; afterword by Carol Rittner. Eugene, Oregon: Cascade Books, 2018, xxiii, 107pp., . Who was Elie Wiesel? He was a Holocaust survivor, Nobel peace laureate, activist on behalf of the oppressed, a teacher, a writer, and friend of humanity. Born into an observant Jewish family in Sighet, Rumania, he was a God-intoxicated youth who survived the Shoah. As an adult he moved easily among presidents and prime ministers but was equally at home among the poor and disenfranchised. The reflections in this volume come judges in the Elie Wiesel Ethics Essay contest. They share their personal and professional experiences working with and learning from Wiesel and provide a glimpse of the person behind the public figure. At a time when the future looks ominous, these reflections collectively hold out the promise of a more ethical and morally robust future. Their message reflects Wiesel's message about the abiding necessity of friendship; the importance of interrogating without abandoning God; the fact that everyone has a share in remembering--an obligation to remember--the past in order to construct a better future; and the importance of fighting against indifference. If we want to repair the world, we need to repair relations with each other and with ourselves. - CONTENTS: Elie Wiesel's ethics contest: twenty-five years of reading students' essays and being the better for it / Judith Ginsberg -- Is it possible to be seated and yet to dance?
