Analysis Of Fifty Shades Of Grey

“There must be something in books, something we can imagine, to make a woman stay in a burning house; there must be something there. You don’t stay for nothing.”(Pg. 51) Main character Guy Montag is a servant to a society that is controlled by censorship and the fear of knowledge; Montag has spent his life burning books, to prevent the spread knowledge. But a series of events cause Montag's mind to change, and result in him breaking free from his society. The internal struggle of dynamic character Guy Montag, as to whether he should go on believing the lies his society has told him, or risk his life for something as simple as words on a page, brings readers into the corrupt society of Fahrenheit 451. In the novel Fahrenheit 451 author Ray

Book-burning is the first thing that is explained about this future based society of Fahrenheit 451. Burning books is the obliteration of the single thought on paper or in one word- censorship. Books are considered evil because they make people question and think. All intellectual curiosity and thirst for knowledge must be quelled for the good of the state — for the good of conformity. Without ideas, everyone conforms, and as a result, everyone should be happy. When books and new ideas are available to people, conflict and unhappiness occur. Some of the many different motifs in the novel Fahrenheit 451 are conveyed through the use of various sardonic lines and connotations planted throughout the book. On the matter of technology and modernization it explains how TV reigns supreme in the future because of the "happiness" it offers. People are content when they don’t have to think, or so the story goes. TV aside, technology is the government’s means of oppression, but also provides the renegade’s opportunity to subvert. Rules and order is another popular topic written into the book. It is stated that “All books can be beaten down with reason.” This was said by Captain Betty, a quote ironically coming from a book itself. Much of the restrictions on the general populous are self-enforced. The government has taken away the citizens’ ability to dissent and marred all dissatisfaction with a cheap version of "happiness," a.k.a. TV. This means

Sandy Hook Elementary School. San Bernardino. Paris. What do all of these places have in common? They fell victim to unpredictability. Mass shootings are not new to our society, but they are still a devastating problem that should not exist any longer. Mass shootings connect to the novel, Fahrenheit 451, through both the unnecessary violence and the absence of humanity that are evident in the novel. Mass shootings are a devastating problem in our society, and now their numbers have escalated to a new level. This change reflects how both our society and our humanity is beginning to crumble, solutions like banning unnecessary and excessive fire arms are currently being enacted.

In Fahrenheit 451, The Giver, and “There Will Come Soft Rains,” the authors, Ray Bradbury and Lois Lowry, portray a dysfunctional world that has dehumanized its people. All three literary works display a world where the minds of people are twisted. They support the theory that technology takes away everything that makes humans unique. In these stories, the society that the main characters live in is too dependent on technology, resulting in people with empty, meaningless lives.

In Ray Bradbury’s novel Fahrenheit 451, Guy Montag is one man attempting to turn his society upside down. After discovering for himself the injustice of his society as it shuns all literature, Montag relentlessly fights to fix this corruption and endures large amounts of persecution in the process (Bradbury). Meanwhile, in his autobiography, Narrative in the Life of Frederick Douglass, Douglass recounts his past as a single slave doing his best to right the evils of southern slaveholders. Although one takes place in a fantasy and one during 19th century America, both works portray individuals going against the unjust grain of their societies, and persevering through extreme opposition in the process. After escaping the grip of slavery, Douglass recounts his life story to a curious, yet most-likely privileged audience in an intelligent and revealing manner. Throughout his narrative, Douglass praises the surprising resilience of the human spirit even in the midst of constant hardship.

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury is a novel that illustrates what could happen to our society in the future. The novel portrays a society in which books, excluding comic books and other simple technical books, are banned and burned for the good of the society as the people believed. The books are seen as a source of unhappiness and, therefore, the society has decided to Ban them and put the fireman in charge of maintaining the censorships. I believe that books are not only banned because they make people unhappy but because they make people unequal. I believe that censorship of books is indented to make everyone in the society equal.

Imagine traveling to the future to discover the disappearance of the principles and ways of life that once were. In this futuristic world, firemen start fires to burn books instead of extinguishing them. Likewise, today’s common notion that people should read books and educate themselves reverses to the opposite where books have become illegal. The government tries to make the people believe that books only cause pain and suffering but, on the contrary, they enlighten the ignorance of the unknowing. The idea of happiness shrouds the people of this time when their euphoria is just blindness towards reality.

Lastly, in the final two verses of “Intellect”, Emerson encourages the act of spreading thoughts and wisdom. Using symbolism, Emerson asserts that when one “scatters broad his seed” of thought, it can impact others’ “souls” (3) (4). By comparing communication to agriculture and using the symbol of “souls”, Emerson correctly alludes to its fruitfulness and appropriately declares its significance in society and human relations. Such idea is manifested in Fahrenheit 451 by Mildred’s depression and the effect of books and Faber on Montag. For starters, Bradbury presents a potential result of lacking communication through Guys Montag’s wife, Mildred, who is presented as a character suffering from depression from her initial introduction. Her condition can be accounted to many factors but the most prominent of all is certainly her addiction to the parlor walls. When asked by Montag to turn “the parlour off”, she responds by stating that "That's my family" (Bradbury 23). Mildred is fixated on her relationships with fake

At the beginning of the book, we were asked to define speculative fiction. I defined speculative fiction as, "The genre of science fiction fantasy and horror. " Even after researching what speculative fiction was, I still did not have a clear understanding. After many class discussions, I was able to grasp a better understanding. I would define this genre in which it contains basic elements of science fiction mainly because of the setting that the book takes place in.

Fahrenheit 451 was taken place in a futuristic dystopian society where books were not allowed. Media then replaced books as a form of censorship in order to avoid self-thought throughout the masses. Mildrid, Montag's companion embodies both the shallowness and mediocrity of the society. She has immersed herself absolutely in an electronic world, detaching herself from Montag who commences perceiving the world they live in in a new light. Clarisse is considered an odd individual by her society's standards.

There are places where the government has supreme authority over citizens, but not much like the society in Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451. Fahrenheit 451 tells the story of a society with a totalitarian government set in the future where people are not allowed to have books. Making citizens think that they are happy with the best lifestyle is how the government obtains power over the populous. Books are illegal to keep and read in the society, so no one knows the useful knowledge they contain. The government conditions citizen’s lifestyles as well, making them feel like they are living the best they can. The government maintains power over the populous by threatening any citizen who tries to break the law. A dog-like machine known as the Mechanical

In Ray Bradbury “Fahrenheit 451” people in the society seem to be clueless about everything.On page twelve chapter one Clarisse McClellan ask another character named Montag “Is it true that

Information and knowledge, invaluable in society, are concealed and destroyed due to the government’s greed for power. The novel Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury follows the life of Guy Montag, a fireman, as he attempts to understand the dystopian society around him and his life. Montag rebels against the government and society itself in an attempt to understand his purpose. In the futuristic novel, books are illegal and burned in fires when found in homes. When Montag reveals his own collection of books, his world begins to change. In the novel and in life, people have restricted access to knowledge and information. This dystopian quality can be a result of the government’s desire to protect the people, or due to the government’s want to

If you are a young adult women and have read the book 50 Shades of Grey, then you are likely to have an eating disorder and have a partner who is verbally abusive. Also, if you have read the series of the same book, then you will also engage in binge drinking and have multiple sex partners. This is what the article "Reading 'Fifty Shades ' linked to unhealthy behaviors" has claimed. The researchers pulled together a group of women and did an investigative study among them to determine if their claim was true. In the book, it describes the methods and strategies to get to such conclusions such as; the scientific method, ethics of psychological research, correlational studies and experimental studies. The article has unreliable evidence creating itself to be a pseudoscience. I strongly disagree with the accusation that reading this book will likely cause such problems for young adult women.
