Fahrenheit 451

Fahrenheit 451

By Ray Bradbury

Part I: The Hearth and the Salamander

Due: Monday, 3 October

When we first meet Guy Montag he appears to be enjoying his work . . . burning the books and other possessions of a fellow human being. As the chapter closes he is no longer enjoying his work. Why? Explain what you think has caused this change in him to come about?

Develop three contentions and support them with statements from the novel. (Hint: Restate this change in Montag as a question in your introduction and use your three contentions to bolster your thesis.) Limit your explanation to ~150 words. Use your best English please. Prepare your responses in MS Word. You may submit your responses as hard copy or as an attachment to an email to ChrisM.Flanagan@gmail.com.
