JOURNAL TOPIC:
Much of Montag's frustration seems to stem from the fact that he is so
focused on his past and his future that he can't get a grip on his
present. Does this apply in your life? When you think about your
future, does it motivate/inspire you and make you happy that you're
doing what you're doing, or does it worry you?
AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. TEST (short? or long? don't know yet. did you read & answer questions?)
3. Part III
So I was trying to remember Captain Beatty's name a while ago, so when I googled F451 Captain and beatty came up, I searched it. Look what came up from Shmoop:
ReplyDelete"Captain Beatty is a bit of paradox. He's the head honcho fireman, but he knows more about books than anyone else. He burns these texts with a fiery vengeance (wink wink), but he spends half his time quoting from them. ... He used to be curious about books, just like Montag is."
I thought you might find that interesting.
