The antagonist in the story is:

  • Captain Beatty
  • He opposed Montag by making him believe that reading was not important. Beatty discouraged Montag in his quest to begin reading because he narrated a distorted history that explained why book burning was necessary.
<h3 /><h3>Who is an antagonist?</h3>

An antagonist is a villain in a story. In the book Fahrenheit 451, we learn of Montag who was convinced of the importance of reading by a young 13-year-old girl.

When he was confused about the idea of reading, Captain Beatty came to corrupt his mind by telling him that reading was not vital. The irony here is that Captain Beatty read books.

What does "Civil Disobedience" suggest about the public opinion of tax evasion in Thoreau’s time? Tax evasion was only a moderat
ExtremeBDS [4]
<span>The correct answer is the third option: if allowed to continue, tax evasion was a serious offense. Tax evasion means not paying your taxes, which, during Thoreau's time, resulted in going to jail. This punishment reflects the idea that tax evasion is a serious offense and that offenders should be treated as criminals. Despite these consequences, Thoreau used tax evasion as a form of civil disobedience. For example, he refused to pay his poll tax during the Mexican War as a way to protest the slavery that was still occurring in the United States. Due to his tax evasion, he went to jail until the poll tax was paid.</span>

Is Romeo and Juliet's love true or infatuation?
natulia [17]
We know that Romeo's feelings are more akin to infatuation due to the intensity of his feelings plus the suddenness with which he switched from loving Rosaline to Juliet. His feelings for Rosaline and his hurt over her rejection were so intense and all-consuming that he worried his father due to the fact that he had been seen staying out all night, night after night, and been seen crying each morning at dawn. This all-consuming intensity alone and any rejection of reasonable advice is evidence alone that Romeo feels infatuation rather than real love. In addition, Romeo confesses to confusing real love with mere physical attraction, another symptom of infatuation, when he first sees Juliet in his lines, "Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight! / For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night" (I.v.54-55). Even Friar Laurence believes Romeo has confused real love with infatuation, as shown when he declares that "young men's love then lies / Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes" (II.iii.68-69). Even just before he marries them, Friar Laurence expresses the belief that all they feel for each other is mere infatuation by warning their love is likely to die just as soon as it has begun, "like fire and powder" (II.vi.10).
While Juliet's love at first is also all about physical attraction, the moment Romeo kills her cousin Tybalt gives her a chance to make choices and for her love to mature. At first, she feels she has been deceived by Romeo and that his beautiful exterior really houses a devilish soul. But then she decides that she should not speak dishonorably of her husband, simply because he is her husband. She then makes the reasoned conclusion that Romeo must have killed Tybalt out of self-defense and further decides to continue loving and trusting Romeo. This one moment of choice is real love, but Romeo never has a moment to make a similar choice. Therefore, only Juliet's love for Romeo is mature enough to be considered real love rather than infatuation.
