Character Analysis
Over the course of Fahrenheit 451, you have observed how Montag is transformed from a willing participant in a fascist agenda into a revolutionary political agitator. Now you have the opportunity to write a character analysis which illustrates this transformation. You will write a character analysis to share your analysis of Montag’s development. All support taken from Fahrenheit 451 should be cited within the text using MLA formatting. See the attached MLA-Quick and Easy Guide for assistance. Your character analysis essay should include:
- an introduction that
- presents a reasonable claim, expressed in a clear thesis statement
- names the author and genre of each text you have selected to support your claim
- body paragraphs that
- present a thorough analysis of your claim
- contain textual evidence and details to support your claim
- demonstrate a logical organization of ideas
- a conclusion paragraph that
