Fahrenheit 451: An Analysis

(AGG) Could you imagine being consumed by technology 24/7? (BS-1) The society's average people have been consumed by technology and have started to shown inhuman traits. (BS-2) The effects of the technology can cause the average person to lose the ability to think. (BS-3) The non average person who is not consumed by technology has the ability to think and take life slow.(BS-4) People who are not consumed by technology see the effects that media has on their society. (TS) In the book Fahrenheit 451, technology has affected many people's ability to think and they have become robots of technology in the society.
(MIP-1) Many people have been consumed by technology and have started to shown inhuman traits. (SIP-A) Mildred has become consumed
by her televisions walls and even refers to them as her family. (STEWE-1) Because Mildred spends all of her time watching television she has begun to refer to them to family. “Will you turn the parlor off? That's my family” (46). Mildred has become so consumed by her televisions walls. She always is watching television and keeping herself occupied. She never takes the time to live with Montag. She is more concerned about the media surrounding her then her relationship with Montag. (STEWE-2) “The parlor “aunts” began to laugh at the parlor “uncles” (54). The parlor aunts and uncles are people that Mildred hears every day. They are the people she goes to talk to. They are the people she goes to for help. She goes to the television walls for everything because this is all the society's ever let her know (SIP-B) Noise is constantly a part of everyone's life. (STEWE-1) Noise is consistently around “A radio hummed somewhere” (30). Noise is everywhere. No matter where you go there is no quiet space. There is always background noise. This is how the people have to think. They have to think in a noisy place. So they are not able to think. (STEWE-2) (CS) Technology has affected people in more negative ways than positive.
(MIP-2) The effects of the technology can cause people to lose the ability to think. (SIP-A) People who use technology have a harder time thinking about real life decisions.(STEWE-1) “An hour of TV class”(27).These children are being setup for failure. There is little to no learning. It's all fast paced things that they will be able to use in their society. They are learning about TV. Most people have the television walls for a distraction but for the kids that will become what they do 24/7. (STEWE-2) Many people who become so enveloped in technology have become very forgetful and forget important moments in their lives. “The first time we ever met, where was it and when?” (40). (SIP-B) Kids take the time to race cars and speed which can cause serious injury. (STEWE-1) Children spend their free time involved in different kinds of technology. “A carful of children, all ages” (122). This is what the children do in their spare time. They race cars, speeding for fun. They even try to hit or kill people just for the heck of it. They put no real thoughts into their actions. They just do it. This completely robs the children of their childhood. (STEWE-2) “McClellan. Run over by a car”(44). Because of these kids and their bad habits they killed someone. This person could have had a chance to do do so much more with their life but they robbed them of it. This specific person was not your average citizen in this society. She took the time to think. She was not into the school's ways. She was not into the hour of television class. She was not into speed racing cars that was not what she wanted to do but that's what killed her. (CS) The effects of media are outrageous and sadly this is all some children have ever known.
(MIP-3) People who are not consumed by technology have the ability to think and take life slow.
(SIP-A) People who take the time to take life slow see the real effects that the TV’s have on people. (STEWE-1) The parlor where the great idiot monsters lay asleep”(110). Monatg even noticed the fact that all they do to people is make their lives worse and people become consumed by them. (STEWE-2) ‘You can stop counting”(36). This woman was able to think that a life without books was a life that was not meant for her. (SIP-B) Many notice the affects that the TV’s have on people. (STEWE-1) “But who has even torn himself from the claw that encloses you when you drop a seed in a TV parlor”(80). If something were to ever happen while your average citizen was watching television or listening to the radio they would have to be motioned to help someone in need . But if a normal citizen saw that was happening they would spring into action to help. (STEWE-2) “The beetle jabbed at his ear”(95). This is a way mOntag uses media. Faber is able to hear everything MOntag hears and says and (CS) People who don't use technology use their time
wisely.
(MIP-4) People who are not consumed by technology gain the ability to think and have their own piece of mind.
(SIP-A) During Montag’s escape from the police he was able to think on his feet and that saved him.(STEWE-1) “With any luck at all,we can kill the trail in here, anyway” (128). This quote shows that Montag was able to think quickly about how he would be able to throw the dog off of his sent this way he could go find a new way of life instead of . (STEWE-2) “Lifted a picture frame aside revealing a television screen the size of a postal card”(126). (SIP-B) If Montag never thought of running away from the society he would have never found granger and his group. (STEWE-1) “Where am I running?”(118). Montag doesn't even know where he is running to he just knows that he has to run. He has to run away from the police (STEWE-2) “The men were silent it was because there was everything to think about and much to remember” (157). (CS) People who are not consumed by technology have the ability to show human
traits.

(BS-1)The society's average people have been consumed by technology and have started to shown inhuman traits. Would you ever want to live in a society like Fahrenheit 451?
