In an academic essay, choose a modern society (either here in the U.S., your native country, or another country) and write an essay in which your compare the similarities between the fictional, future world of Fahrenheit 451 and the current real world of your country of choice. In your comparison, consider the following:<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 In what different aspects are these two societies similar? Think about specific areas, such as war, technology, social\/people interaction, censorship, communication, family lifestyles, work lifestyles, authority, power, government propaganda, freedom, education, concept of happiness, and others.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 What specific details used in the book can represent current technology, ideas, philosophy, government, etc in your current society?<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 What passages (quotes) from the novel ring true (have current meaning in today\u2019s society) or perhaps are still somewhat true today?<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 You are writing a comparison essay, not a comparison and contrast essay. Therefore, you should be only analyzing similarities (comparisons), not differences (contrasts).<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 This is not a summary of Fahrenheit 451, so don\u2019t focus too much on plot. Focus on the distinct specific areas that are similar to each society. These areas may not be at first obvious to the reader; it is your job to make the connections for him\/her.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 The more specific your analysis is, the more powerful your comparison will be.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 For your conclusion, consider why writing such a comparison is important.
