Fahrenheit 451: Predictions

Another difference that is rather large is the emphasis that Bradbury puts on the wall screen, three wall television type devices. Probably the biggest difference and the strangest is how Guy’s wife Mildred and the rest o f the country related to them as their “family.” Also how all the characters in the books could interact with the televisions by being in plays or shows. The TV could quite possibly be a way for Mildred to try to .....

The Celestine Prophecy
Words: 436 / Pages: 2 .... of all, Redfield's characters are more two-dimentional and
unbelieveable than Barbie paper dolls. "The characters...are featureless
mouthpiecesfor the monotone authorial voice," says Moyle. A major problem I had
with reading The Celestine Prophecy was keeping track of who was who; the
characters have little or no distinction between them, and it was a bit
confusing because he keeps encountering the same people in different situations.
Another thig is Redfield repeats himself and the insights, and I'm assuming
he does it on purpose but it gets monotonous. Moyle calls it "considerate," but
I think it's just plain repetative. The only way I g .....

Was Sir Tomas More's Decision Correct?
Words: 671 / Pages: 3 .... the eyes of the church More's actions, or lack of action as the
case may be, was looked upon very favourably. Catholics believe that the
pope has the power to make rulings on points of religion and morality. The
pope believed that the state had no business meddling in the affairs and
powers of the church. Thus when the Pope declared that the marriage between
Catherine and Henry would stand, he was enforcing a law within the church
that his followers would have to live by. Therefore from the point of view
of the catholic church, which was represented in the play by Chapuys,
More's decision was correct. For if one believes, as More did, in an

That is an example of Gregor’s father’s control over his life and Kafka’s situation was similar. He eventually was forced to become a lawyer, whereas what Kafka wanted was a literary degree.
Franz Kafka made his character, Gregor, transform into an insect in the story. Nobody wants to associate themselves with an insect, which is a lowly creature, a pest, or nuisance. This symbolizes Kafka’s depression and his poor self image. Since his family treats the insect like an outcast, that must be how Franz felt about the .....
