Strategies of Mind Control / Status of Text and Image in Fahrenheit 451, the Novel and the Film

The paper discusses strategies of mind control employed by the oppressive society presented in Ray Bradbury's dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451, as well as in François Truffaut's film of the same title, based on that novel. In the genre of dystopia, language has been particularly often seen as potential means of both the oppressive thought control and the resistance to such control. The paper gives a short account of typical motifs of the censorship of arts and books and the language as means of dominance in some of the most important dystopias of the 20th century. Special attention is given to Fahrenheit 451 because it presents a society where mind control takes the form of a dichotomy of text and image, i.e. it presents a society where the books are banned and burned, while the images, especially those mediated by television, are preferred and approved. By comparing the novel and the film, the paper notes how the same story of the persecution of books/text and the prevalence of television/images resonates differently according to the medium in which it is narrated.
