Answer:

Before Montag meets Clarisse, his sixteen-year-old neighbor, he is little more than an automaton, a book-burning robot. He reports to work, copes with his suicidal wife, and walks through his television-obsessed world, but he hardly notices what he is doing. Clarisse shakes Montag out of his stupor, forces him to examine the world around him, and inspires him to take drastic and violent steps. She does all of this indirectly, however. Her key function in the novel—the function that sets all of these changes in motion—is to show Montag what it means to be a writer.

Like a nascent novelist, Clarisse is keenly aware of and interested in the world she lives in. In a series of conversation, she shows Montag the way she observes society, savors lovely things, and reflects on what she sees. She shares her insights into people, expressing wonderment at the way they blather to each other without talking about anything meaningful, race past beautiful sights without observing them, and fail to educate children. She points out small details, such as the dew on the grass and the man in the moon. She delights in old superstitions, such as the idea that dandelions show whether someone is in love. She shares metaphors, comparing the rain to wine and the fallen leaves to cinnamon. She displays curiosity about other people’s motivations and lives, asking Montag whether he is happy, and whether it’s true that firefighters like him once put fires out rather than starting them. By speaking openly to Montag and showing him the way her mind works, she allows him to see the world through her eyes—the eyes of someone who actually thinks about what’s going on around her and whose knack for observation makes her seem destined to become a writer.

Getting to know Clarisse inspires Montag to observe the world with the same writerly care she does. He turns from an automaton into a thinking, feeling, analyzing being. He looks at his deadened house and his emotionally stunted wife through new eyes. He starts wondering about the history of firefighting. He notices that most people care far more for their television families than they do for their real ones. He realizes that he is not in love with anyone, as Clarisse’s lighthearted dandelion game indicated. Instead of drifting through society in an unthinking daze, without analyzing it, he begins to contemplate the way his countrymen live and how he fits into the social fabric. He begins to interrogate the ways in which he is similar to and different than his coworkers. He notices, for example, that all the other fireman look exactly as he does: dark-haired and unshaven, “mirror images” of Montag. At the same time, he realizes that his physical resemblance to the other firemen belies the hesitance he feels about performing his job, a hesitance the other firemen don’t seem to share.

Once Montag understand what it means to think like a writer, he has a revelation about what it means to be a writer. He realizes that writers are people who think as Clarisse does (and as he is beginning to) and who then organize and shape their thoughts on paper. As he tells Mildred, it dawns on him that “‘a man was behind each one of those books. A man had to think them up. A man had to take a long time to put them down on paper.’” For most of his adult life, he has thought of books simply as physical objects. Thanks to Clarisse, he understands that the books he is burning are products of human endeavor. They represent an individual writer’s entire life, including his or her way of viewing the world. When he burns them, Montag realizes, he is symbolically burning writers like Clarisse. This revelation shows him how immoral his work is, and ultimately leads him to take brave and violent action.

Clarisse disappears fairly early on in the novel, but she is the key that unlocks Montag. She opens his eyes and inspires him to change. Although she is a bright, slightly naïve teenager, Clarisse is also the closest thing Bradbury has to a representative in the novel. With her eye for detail, her cutting social insight, and her passion for observation, she seems like the kind of girl who might go on to write a novel such as Fahrenheit 451.

what is your impression of Macbeth and Lady macbeth? Cite passages from act 1 to support your description
Makovka662 [10]

Macbeth, General of war of King Duncan from Scotland, was very much appreciated in the court by his skills in the combats:

"SCENE II. A camp near Forres.

Alarum within. Enter DUNCAN, MALCOLM, DONALBAIN, LENNOX, with Attendants, meeting a bleeding Sergeant

DUNCAN

What bloody man is that? He can report,

As seemeth by his plight, of the revolt

The newest state.

MALCOLM

This is the sergeant

Who like a good and hardy soldier fought

'Gainst my captivity. Hail, brave friend!

Say to the king the knowledge of the broil

As thou didst leave it."

One day, back from a victorious battle, accompanied by his friend Banquo, he is surprised by three witches with the next prophecies: Macbeth would be Thane of Cawdor and king of Scotland, and the descendants of Banquo would inherit the crown. The witches vanish on air, leaving the two characters thinking about the foresight of the supernatural power.

Surprisingly, a messenger of the king informs him about his nomination as Cawdor's Thane, making true so, one of the prophecies of the witches. In view of that, Macbeth glimpses the very position of reign, which dominates his soul and brings his perdition.

So, seized by a deep and furious sense of ambition and encouraged by Lady Macbeth, wife ruled by the same vile values, Macbeth kills the king Duncan, in search of the possession of the crown:


SCENE V. Inverness. Macbeth's castle.

Enter LADY MACBETH, reading a letter

(...)

MACBETH

My dearest love,

Duncan comes here to-night.

LADY MACBETH

And when goes hence?

MACBETH

To-morrow, as he purposes.LADY MACBETH

O, never

Shall sun that morrow see!

Your face, my thane, is as a book where men

May read strange matters. To beguile the time,

Look like the time; bear welcome in your eye,

Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower,

But be the serpent under't. He that's coming

Must be provided for: and you shall put

This night's great business into my dispatch;

Which shall to all our nights and days to come

Give solely sovereign sway and masterdom.
