Effects Of Technology In Fahrenheit 451

Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 was written as a projection into the future. He wrote his novel in 1953, and as the reader's progress through his novel there are more similarities between the book, and life today. Education, technology, and society are three of many similarities in the novel Fahrenheit 451.

Every day, everywhere people are using technology to check email, calculate tax, and talk with each other. Technology has greatly affected the social structure today and in Fahrenheit 451. Technology has effected how the TV controls our lives, how we communicate with one another, and how strong the social structure is In both the real world and Fahrenheit 451.

With firemen burning down houses instead of saving them, and people resigning to mindlessness, the world is a dreary mess in Fahrenheit 451. Ray Bradbury fills this book with dismal descriptions of the society and the community. Fahrenheit 451 shows that technology does not always enhance and often eats away at how people live their daily lives and interact with each other. The people who participate in this era ban books, opting to instead stare mindlessly at “parlor walls,” drowning out their worries with earbuds and entertainment. Though books can be an interesting perspective on life and other topics, the majority of people mindlessly waste their days away staring at televisions and drowning their thoughts out with earbuds.

Michael J. Fox once said, “Family is not an important thing. It’s everything.” (Michael J Fox) However, in Fahrenheit 451 and “The Veldt” by Ray Bradbury this idea is aggressively rejected. The characters in Bradbury’s novel Fahrenheit 451, live in a society where technology negatively impacts their family and relationships with each other. Similarly, the characters in Bradbury’s short story, “The Veldt” are captivated by technology which has a huge toll on their family and relationships. Fahrenheit 451 and “The Veldt” by Ray Bradbury discusses the negative impact technology has on family and relationships through the use of symbolism, imagery and character development in both stories.

Every year in America, more than 2 billion books, 350 million magazines, and 24 billion newspapers are published each year. In the book Fahrenheit 451 that number is 0.The book Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury presents the idea that a better quality of life can not be brought on by technology or the destruction of books. This theme is represented throughout the entire book.

Do you think that living in a technical world would destroy society? Well, in Bradbury's novel, Fahrenheit 451, technology is very advanced and seems to get people's attention. "You're not important. You're not anything" (Bradbury 163). Fahrenheit 451 is explained as a dystopian literature. Such literature portrays an imaginary world where misguided attempts to create a utopia, or a socially and politically perfect place, results in “large scale human misery." (Critique by Michael M. Levy) This quote makes you realize that technology is taking over humans and the world has to do something about it. By creating an “utopia”, Fahrenheit 451 requires the government to take away citizen’s rights and freedoms to create the perfect society.

Have you ever wondered how how much our life have changed since technology modernized? Technology has advanced so much that it is present everywhere in our lives and there is almost no place on the globe where this important trend of the last two centuries has not entered. Technology has taken control of the world. This situation leads to the decline of the society, including human’s ability to think. The book “Fahrenheit 451” by Ray Bradbury provides the interaction of the protagonist, Guy Montag, in a particular way with the technology. Guy Montag is a fireman whose job is to to burn books. Fahrenheit 451 presents a world where, under the motto, “...the books says nothing” (Bradbury 51-63), people start burning them and bookless happiness is illustrated by the empty streets of the city, people could not detach for a moment from the screens that give the images of a perfect world. The science fiction film “Wall-E” (2008) is the story of the last robot on Earth, whose job is to clean up the trash left by hymans. Meanwhile, the planet had to leave the planet. As a consequence, the robots take the control of it. So, technology changes the ways in which people interact with each other that does not move humanity forward.

Is the modern world becoming more like the thoughtless society of Fahrenheit 451? In 1953, Fahrenheit 451, a classic novel written by Ray Bradbury, was published. This novel contains two main themes: censorship and technology. Their society is so engrossed in new technology that they neglect connecting to the world and the people around them. As technology continues to advance in the modern world, these aspects become more apparent. While some people believe that the world of Fahrenheit 451 is different from the modern world, society’s reliance on technology and actions regarding censorship show otherwise.

Imagine receiving a text from one of your friends; a hilarious joke they had thought of on a whim. You could send a laughing-face emoji or the more common "lol" text back, but it could never take the place of both of your side-splitting laughs filling the room if you were together. A group text couldn't even come close to what a night out with friends would be. Technology is creating a deadening power on society by disconnecting people from the world around them, replacing the meaningfulness of human interaction, and simplifying thoughts and pleasures to only the most immediate.

Technology has secretly taken over society but no one will realize until it is too late. Fahrenheit 451 is a science fiction novel written by author, Ray Bradbury in 1953. The novel takes place in a futuristic, utopian society in which technology is exceptionally advanced and it completes almost all everyday actions for people. Fahrenheit 451 tells the story of the main protagonist, Montag who is a fireman in a society where books are illegal and the main job of firemen is to burn all books. Most people in society are slaves to technology and have become completely disconnected from society especially Montag’s wife, Mildred. In his novel, Bradbury proves through Mildred’s shallow actions that technology, although innovative, holds society

In our society now, our way of life is changing and it is not what it use to be back then. Our society is becoming more attracted to all of these new technologies in our lives, people are beginning to talk more on the phones and not in person. Music is becoming a problem, where people uses it to block out the world around them by using earbuds. The internet is causing people to be less responsible in their daily lives and make stupid decisions. As well people use the internet to blame other people for their own troubles or the nation’s troubles, which is ruining our society. Almost everything is changing in our society, and Ray Bradbury predicted all of this in his book, Fahrenheit 451. His predictions on how people act in our society now are mostly correct, but the most notable are about technology affecting interaction, responsibility, and marriage.

Technology affects the communication of people and their personal interaction. In the story Fahrenheit 451, Technology is a distraction for Mildred from talking to her husband Montag. Mildred is always distracted with the parlors and says that is her family than the real family. Montag tries to change with Mildred and shows her what he wanted to understand from the books that he was burning when he remembers of the lady that sacrifice herself for her books. In the Science fiction novel of Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, it says that Technology is negatively affecting the personal interaction by causing losing thinking time, isolation, and distraction.

They do not have equality or freedom, they are all so soaked up in technology that it is illegal for them to do simple stuff, such as, reading books. The book, Fahrenheit 451 explains how firefighters start fires rather than stopping them. A firefighter’s job is do burn books, since books are illegal to have because they go against the power of technology and modernization. In a dystopian society, people should be unhappy, unequal, violent, and brutalized and that is what is exactly being seen throughout this book. As Ray Bradbury captures the attention of many readers, he captures our attention on how the future could be if technology would become so extreme. Bradbury’s novel, Fahrenheit 451 is not about control, but it is a novel about how television destroys curiosity in reading literature.
