Presentation transcript:

Language of Deception Arbeit Macht Frei: Which words do you think were coined by the Nazis as a language of deception, to mask what was really going on? Which words do you think may have been coined by the prisoners themselves? Which of the words describe some general aspect of the Holocaust? Which of the words refer to the concentration camps in particular? (list of words)

Why do you think Spiegelman kept these specialized words in maus rather than replace them with ones more easily understood? How does understanding these words contribute to your appreciation of the work?

On the gates to Dachau and Auschwitz were the words Arbeit Macht Frei, German for "work will make you free." What do you think the intent of this motto was? How does it relate to the language of deception? Do you think this language evolved or was created, and why.
