He was trying to fix his legacy because the line of Benedict Arnold has not had a very good reputation throughout the years, but he only worsened his family reputation. His betrayal is known among most citizens of the US and his name is scarcely mentioned anywhere. He was not treated fairly by some Americans, but his response to being treated that way was unacceptable.

In these books the Devil stands stripped of all his brute disguises. Here are all your familiar spirits—your incubi and succubi; your witches that go by land, by air, and by sea; your wizards of the night and of the day.
This is similar to the government in Fahrenheit 451. On page thirty-one of the novel, Montag asks Captain Beatty what happened to a man whose library they had “fixed,” and the Captain says, “They took him screaming off to the asylum…Any man’s insane who thinks he can fool the government and us.” The government in Fahrenheit 451 is powerful and strict just like the government in “Harrison

For example,when the ghost of King Hamlet secretly reveals to Hamlet what happened to how he died,the ghost said,”that snake poured a vial of henbane poison into my ear”(Shakespeare 65). This behavior displayed pure evil and treachery. When the ghost boldly tells Hamlet about the poison Hamlet is in shock and surprised and tells him that the snake that killed him was his uncle who took his crown.

In addition, when Claudius killed Hamlet’s father while he was living in peace,the ghost said,”He cut me off in the middle of a sinful life”(Shakespeare 65).
