Farenheit 451 Reflection
Reflection 1 Cipriano Echavarria Farenheit 451 by dig Bradbury Pg. 72 You cant build a augury without nails and wood. If you put one acrosst want a house built, hide the nails and wood. If you wearyt want a man unhappy politically, dont give him two sides to a question to worry him give him one. damp yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a intimacy as war. (72) Censorship has stroked the field for many decades fearful regimens bind been hiding information or modifying it to its citizens. Why? Why are governments fearful of the knowledge of their throng?Knowledge is power, and throughout history weve seen how man is endlessly in search for more knowledge, curious on finding explanations to unreciprocated questions and on analyzing both sides to a question. Knowledge of people has caused many problems to world governments, many revolutions and wars have started due to the fact that citizens have encountered a innovative form of thinking. Fahrenheit 451 portrays a futuristic society in which the government has censored everything, from books to newspapers and from T.V shows to Radio shows. This society never experiments conflict or disagreement because everybody is taught the same things and therefore think the same personal manner. This has do me think on which is actually the best way to rule a society. Is it the way al to the highest degree countries in the world implement, an uncensored and free-thinking way, were due to the different opinions and panoramas many conflicts are created which lead to death, torture and cruelty. Or is it the way shown in the book, were everybody is thought to think the same way.I arrived to a conclusion and basing myself on the Human Rights Declaration, people should be free on what information they want to know and on how they want to think, but they must be taught to respect differences, and to be bounteous in order to avoid conflict. Reflection 2 Cipriano Echavarria Farenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury P g. 181 I unfeignedly enjoyed myself and learned a lot while knowledge this book. Ive never liked fiction or realistic-fiction books but Ive got to admit that this book will make me think twice whenever Ill have to choose between a fiction and a non-fiction book.The indite did a really god job on creating a futuristic place were many things were associated to reality but had different roles. For example, firemen instead of having to reject fire had to create fires which burned books. This makes you think about reality and pray yourself questions about how would society be if roles were inverted, if firemen instead of extinguishing fires created them, if policemen instead of providing hostage against thefts and murders would attack you, if drugs were legal etc.The book not only provided an interesting emplacement on how would a society be if everyone thought the same way but it also gave many lectures about sleep with and friendship. It showed how Montag (main character) didn t love his wife and that even though he pretended and tried to be happy with her and tried to love her wasnt able to do it. This made me think about the importance of love, and of never trying to trick your feelings on trying to make them love a person who you really dont, it also made me think (as harsh as it could sound) if I really loved my girlfriend or if she was just a person who physically and mentally attracted me.Finally the author did a great job in piece of writing many quotes that relates to everyday situations, one of the quotes that I most liked and colligate to was We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in option a vessel drop by drop, there is at tolerate a drop which makes it melt down over so in a series of kindnesses there is at least one which makes the heart run over. The author used this quote to explain Montags feelings towards a girl named Clarisse, which afterwards a short time being friends Montag started to love.This quote e xtremely relates to a situation I experienced in the past, my best friend and I let our hearts run over and after many historic period of being friends we fell in love. Fahrenheit has been probably the book from which Ive most learned about and the one with I could relate the most its my new favorite book. Its curious how things in bread and butter just arrive in the perfect moment. A week agone I was in the UN model of Barranquilla discussing illegal Executions and censorship done by the government coincidentally Fahrenheit 451 is based on different types of Extrajudicial Executions and censorship done by the government.
