The "Roaring Twenties" was a period of great social and political change. During these years, the economy of the nation was extremely successful. This led to an increased number of rich people, and the rise of luxurious lifestyles. Moreover, many people moved to cities, and the increase in urban population gave rise to a new type of culture for the young, which included alcohol consumption, speakeasies and jazz. The age also saw the liberation of women, who were able to engage in behaviours that were previously restricted to them. All of these "glamorous" ideals, however, came to a halt in 1929, with the crash of the stock market and the beginning of the Great Depression.

Based on Clarisse's point of view, how are things in Bradbury's world similar AND different than today's world? You must use tex

lesya692 [45]

This question is about "Fahrenheit 451".

Answer and Explanation:

Clarisse's point of view shows that the current world as well as the world of Bradbury is full of people who allow themselves to be alienated by useless television programs, are blinded by the media and cannot see beyond what is shown to them. However, there are differences between these two worlds, since in the current world we are free to refuse this type of alienation and to improve ourselves in studies, readings, family interaction and our aggrandizement.

Based on this, I believe that Bradbury wants to show how important it is that we consume television media in a controlled manner, without letting it take away what is most important to us, our rationality.

On the roof of Bradbury, Clarisse was raised in a family that encourages reading and reasoning, socializing and conversation, rejecting alienation from TV. This gives Clarissa the perception and the power to search for her own concepts, values and beliefs.
