Fahrenheit 451: Journal #3 Quote Analysis Essay
In the cite above, Faber describes books and their content to Montag, who as started to rear against beau monde through with(predicate) books. Faber was a very(prenominal) special and memor sufficient soul Montag met in a park a hardly a(prenominal) years back. They had a conversation in which Faber recited some poems to him and because of that, Montag knew he was a stand up a reader. He was the only person Montag could think of that would benefactor him in his situation. Faber is the genius that uttered this excerpt and is, by far, my preferent character in the book. The way he describes books is so unique.He uses many figures of obstetrical delivery to explain books and even society. Because of this, what he says usually has indirect meanings. Take this citation for example. This quote contains similes and personifications that describe Montags society and why books ar burned. Pores in the face of bearing is a personification that represents the problems in life. Pores on our faces be unwanted, ugly, problematic.Same with the issues in our lives. It makes pot unhappy, and brings torture in their lives. People are afraid of this therefore, they are removed, avoided. Books reveal these pores in the face of life, so they are removed as well. Thats how Montags organisation controls Montags society. Through fake, hollow happiness.The brass digs a hole and buries the locked lever box filled with all matchlesss emotions (excluding happiness) and issues dense inside the hole. Heck, they even t apiece society to do that themselves For the next sentence, flowers is a metaphor for ideas. Good rain and caustic loam represents creative thinking and imagination. Flowers need Good rain and black loam to blossom into something grand, special, unique.But, because the flowers are growing on other flowers, they become same to it. to each one and every flower grows on each other until the world is covered in identical flowers. A few are different, ye s, but they slowly dwindle through the influence of the identical flowers and the disturbance of nature those flowers created. Those special flowers may transform into an identical flower, or, they die.Journal 4May 5, 2013They were gone. The wiener was gone. Now there was only the river and Montag directionless in a sudden peacefulness, past from the city and the lights and the chase, out from everything. (Pg. 140, Fahrenheit 451)This quote occurs later Montag kills Beatty and two other firemen, as well as burn the Salamander, after his house was burnt by them. Because of that, he is now being chased by firemen in helicopters and Salamanders, and a more good and high tech Mechanical Hound. Montag visits Faber one last time, receiving money, new clothes, and directions from him, and then runs into the river, which carries him away to safety. The Hound and firemen then loses track of him. This quote is where, in my opinion, the climax ends and the resolution starts.Its when Mon tag completes his transition from mindless follower to self-reliant thinker. All with natures aid. Nature, at this moment, is shown as something that overrules technology. still when its go about with the highest, most efficient technology that the adult male can create, nature wins. Nature was able to bring Montag to safety from the Hound and the bag of society and technology, to help him escape from everything that was safekeeping him back.The peace and relaxation nature provides help Montag complete his thinking process, which was incomplete because he couldnt really think when he was surrounded by the fast-moving, overly brilliant things, people that didnt give a damn about anything except for themselves and their happiness, and a government thats watching your every move. Not until he was completely stranded from all that was he able to learn his new self and to move on to make peace with his inner conflicts. Even he wasnt able to repeat and make peace when he was wit h Faber, mortal he trusted and cared for. He was hurt by technology and healed by nature.
