The symbol that best represent the main charecter Montag is a book, the main reason being that the whole story arch of his charecter so far is his job is to burn books and also he hides books becuase he wants to learn from them, and think differently then the other people he knows. The symbol that best represents his wife Mildred is an insane asylum because she is off her rocker when it comes to just accepting things as the norm and trying to commit suicide and not even remembering it, and that she thiinks a virtual family can replace a realone and that all the things she lives with are considered normal. The symbol that represents Captain Beatty is a firefighters hat because he himself is the captain of the firemen and he also enjoys starting the fires very much and takes his job very serious and thinks that this is the way things should be with burning books. The symbol that represents Claurice would be a peace sign because she is free spirited and almost hippy like with the way she acts compared to society. She also is different on the level that she doesn't like what normal is in the society they live in so she is quite rebellious in the eyes of most people in the society. A symbol that can represent most of the other charecters is a brainless zombie because everyoone in this society act as if the stuff they do is normal when really they act more like people getting from point A to point B without ever saying a word or even really having their own opinion on any thing. Because they don't question anything, and then Montag meets Claurice and he starts to question why he burns the books and why society is the way it is.

I have to say that I can definitely agree with your symbols. They really represent the characters.
ReplyDeleteYou have great media and also you are great at describing the whole story i can really tell you understand what you read!
ReplyDeleteComing up with symbols to represent each character is a really good idea and your reasoning for each symbol was very well thought out.
