The theme of Conformity vs. Individuality in Fahrenheit 451 from LitCharts | The creators of SparkNotes

Seeking for happiness and distraction is a characteristic of Montague's life culture. These seem like a very selfish set of values, but culture is not even a culture that celebrates extensive self-expression and does not allow it. Hedonism and unconscious entertainment are commonly separated by society, requiring little personal thought as long as 451 F society people insist on movies, sports, races.

But whenever individuals start to question the purpose of this life and start looking for answers and begin to express doubts in books and nature, they become a threat. Their problems and actions may expose others to the task their culture aims to divert their attention. Therefore, in Fahrenheit society, 451 people who express personality maximize social abandonment, in the worst case it is a real danger.

Clarisse McClellan represents free thought and personality. Montague knows that she is different from anyone else. She has little interest in seeking stimulation from her colleagues. She talks rather, I personally wish to observe the natural world and ask questions. She soon disappeared (probably dead). Fahrenheit 451 society aims to eliminate persons who violate general social integration - roles (Clarisse, Faber, Granger, Montag) are very dangerous

Bradbury warned us that the final big thing of Fahrenheit 451 is obedience. People in society of 451 Fahrenheit have no identity at all. I believe this book shows two different integration: intelligence and problems. Intelligent integration of 451 Fahrenheit is best reflected in the school education system of Montague society. Captain Beatty remembered Montag. "Of course, you remember a very" smart boy "in my school class. Most of them recite and answer.

In several ways, Ray Bradbury has created a huge fantasy behind a massive traditionalism and obedience. To some extent, due to social consistency, non-traditional figures such as Montag, Faber, and small Beatty in the city can stand out due to differences. But the biggest change through the book is the leader of Montag. All personality besides Montag is consistent with society or contravenes their rules, but they are constant throughout the book, Montag is quite variable. Ray Bradbury has formed such a strong contrast between obedience and personality and has focused on the spotlight for readers. The memory of adapting characters gradually disappears. Therefore, the role of Montag as the sole role of changing the entire story is obviously the hero and is the sole focus of the readers' attention.
