Clarisse's Rethink In Fahrenheit 451

Throughout Fahrenheit 451, it is evident that many characters do not appreciate the importance of family however in our society family is very significant to many people. There are numerous examples of parents not appreciating their spouses or their children. For example, in Fahrenheit it states, “I plunk the children in school nine days out of ten. I put up with them when they come home three days a month,”(Bradbury 93). The characters in the dystopian society are so controlled by television that they would rather watch TV than enjoy time with their children.

As the book goes on, Mildred and Montag have struggles. Montag realizes that Mildred wasn’t the person he fell in love with, and how she’s depressed and doesn’t even know it. The society that Montag is living in, isn’t a very good one. Some people rarely even go outside, they just watch the parlors, and that isn’t a good thing. Some people don’t evne know what the moon loosk like.

One of the characters dragged into the disarray is Ophelia, the daughter of the King’s advisor and Hamlet’s love interest. Ophelia is pulled in many different directions, and is used at the whims of the men in her life. She suffers greatly throughout the tragedy by none of her own faults. She is dragged into this conflict, yet she stays. Ophelia is a dutiful daughter, representing the "fairer sex" perfectly.

In addition, she is also well-informed with how to behave when in the company of girls. These social skills allow her to become the leader of the group of friends, as well as the inciter of the bullying of Elaine (Lloyd 14). Elaine becomes a scapegoat for her friends who abuse her and Cordelia in particular. The trio of Carol, Grace and Cordelia constantly criticizes Elaine for her shortcomings and dominates her with the excuse of improving her manners and personality. Pavla Chudějová in “Exploring the women’s experience” states that since Cordelia cannot compare to her attractive and talented older sisters, she makes great effort to keep up appearances in fear of being considered “disappointing” (Cat’s Eye 73).

After their short stroll from the recreation center back to their homes, Montag couldn't quit pondering her; "Of course I’m happy. What does she think? I'm not? "(7) "What incredible power of identification the girl had; she was like the eager watcher of a marionette show, anticipating each flicker of an eyelid, each gesture of his hand, each flick of a finger, the moment before it began."(8). The motivation behind why she vanishes from the novel is on the grounds that that is the place he truly begins to do things more for himself since he begins thinking for himself.

Their youngsters, who feel adored; whatever is left of us, who are saved disagreeable expe- riences with adolescents raised without affection or warmth; and mothers most impor- tantly. For, in relinquishing, a mother feels strong and liberal; and in guild she finds the motivation to right wrong. Women throughout time have been compelled to cope with the remonstrances of motherhood along with society’s anticipations as to what a

The author, Ray Bradbury, writes in a way that Montage started to admire Clarisse because of how caring, melancholy and how much she thinks deeply into her thoughts. Clarisse was also the first person to feel inclined to ask Montage if “are you happy?” (Fahrenheit, 7) This was wake up call to montage because no one really talked about happiness. This is one of the moments when Clarisse 's was earnest with

After reading I am Malala by Malala Yousafzai, I have learned that Malala is a dynamic character. At the beginning of the book, the character is (A normal girl) eventually, the character becomes (unstoppable), and (brave). These character traits were observed through Malala’s actions, dialogue, relationships, choices, and problems. So this is like me because when I am scared I will think about how Malala faced her fears and how simple my fear is.So Malala really helped me know that there is more than candy in the world that makes me happy like my friends and my sisters kinda. But at least I have my parents I would be as worried as Malala when she didn't know where her father was and if he was killed!So there is much more than candy, my friends family Mrs.Gasser and more.

Mildred’s constant addiction to gadgets represents her denial towards her problems and the little desire she has towards a better life. Her ignorance is another of her great weaknesses since she lives in a world where her feelings don’t matter and is easily influenced by tv and propaganda which explains her obsess towards hair dye and a soap opera family, even when Guy tries to talk to her all she seems able to talk about is her “family”, he tries to talk to her into reading some of the books he has found but she’s just worried that Captain Beatty might show up and “burn the house and the ‘family’” and asks him “why should I read?” “what for?” (34, Bradbury). Mildred doesn’t understand what she’s feeling and therefore prefers little amounts of superficial happiness that only give her joy for a little while, instead of reading and exterminating her ignorance because she’s too afraid to understand what is really happening inside of

Faulkner shows many times in the story how much he thinks women don’t bring much importance to society. He describes how the women are always gossiping and curious, like how they only go to Miss Emily’s funeral because they wanted to see the inside of her house, but the men go to pay respects. The author also focuses on Miss Emily’s appearance very often making it seem like her appearance is one of the only things that makes her

The only different were the reading assignments were modified based on their academic level. Incorporating small reading allows all students participate and interact in reading out loud. The challenge of having different book assigned can have many benefits for students development, because they are able to move within reading levels as they advance their

He slowly learned what it is to live, grabbed his life with his own hands, and experienced many new things that help him grow his mind and heart. Mildred Montag was always wanting a new electronic and rarely strays from watching TV yet she was so unhappy on the inside. She never thought for herself and instead allowed others to make every decision for her without any question because she had never learned how to question things. Finally, Clarisse McClellan was a happy-go-lucky girl who was anywhere near as absorbed in the electronics as Mildred was. She preferred the sound of her thoughts or a conversation with another human to be the sound she heard, rather than scripted exchanges coming from a new television.

The killing of her father works, but they should exchange some witty banter. The flashback with Angelique regarding the women slaves is not needed, it hinders the pace, and her backstory is enough. Angelique can 't hurt Leigha and this shows her vulnerability and makes her complex. Leigha, as mentioned, is the sweet little girl that everyone loves. She claims her mother’s name was “Beth?” But it’s Megan (page 23).

He told me that people are going to make fun of me, but I have the option to care or not. He even helps me with many things, like problems at school or just protecting me when something is going on. Yet, his childhood wasn 't all that great, as he struggled. Back then, before I was born and dad was a child, he was an introvert, and that was the biggest mistake of his life, as he did not go outside. Like I said, he was like me.
