Fahrenheit 451-How does it relate to what I have learned in class?

Two ideas from the book that stood out were a one-way society, rebellion, and breaking away from a cause that was disliked. A one-way society reminds me of the Puritans and their society. The rebellion and breaking away of a person from the society reminds me of the rationalism era and the Revolutionary War.
The Puritans were very religious, and religion was their only practice and belief. The whole of the group of people believed one specific idea, that if they were good, God could look down on them and they may go to Heaven. This one belief society was not very original and specific. The society in Fahrenheit 451 believed that books were bad and poisonous, if you will, to the society. Books are bad and should not be read or there will be punishment. These two societies are parallel in that they have one way of thinking and if there was another idea that could change the status quo, it must be destroyed. But, there were rebellions.
The rationalism era is when people could think and rationalize. Montag, after reading, truly reading, his first book, began to think. Once he had begun to think, he started to have the idea that the society and way things are need to change. So, he started to rebel against the society's ways. The colonists began to think as well, during the rationalism era, and they started to rebel against some of the ideas of England. They didn't like that they weren't being represented and taxed. So, they had mini rebellions against their monster mother country which eventually led to the Revolutionary War.
The cause of the Revolutionary War, like mentioned above, was to break away from an idea of England that the colonists didn't like. Montag wanted to break away from the idea of no books in his society. So, he did. He rebelled and ran away. Then, he was successful. In the end, the society/city was destroyed and he, with others, were going to start over and bring back books. The Revolutionary War created liberty and freedom from the evil country of England, and Montag giving his city a piece of his mind created the start and end of a rebellion against the terrible, strict society.
