World War One (WWI) was a crucial turning point for the United States. The U.S. was involved in WWI partly because of Germany’s submarine warfare on other European nations. President Woodrow Wilson, the president during this time period, wanted to hold off on joining the war for as long as possible.

The war had just ended when Wilson delivered The Fourteen Points speech, which was intended to propose…

because when Montag is in the river, he quickly associates it with “an apple, a pear, a glass of milk (136)”, simple images that bring to mind peace and leisure. The coolness of “milk” seems to free you from the hotness and passion of society. The fruit makes you think of sweetness. It just seems to really easily conjure up ideas of comfortable isolation, and peace, so this is what the river symbolizes, at least to our protagonist. He then goes on to say he “just wants some time to think…(136)”,…

A leader is one of the first things the boys decide they need at…

reinstituted as an absolute authority; it would be the guiding head, or “artificial soul”, of the “artificial man” composed of the commonwealth that is “of greater stature and strength than the natural [man]”. This Leviathan is crucial for the maintenance of peace. Man’s “natural condition” is equal “in the faculties of the body and mind” as what someone lacks in strength they may make up in wits, and they are naturally in competition for gain, safety, and reputation in a state of nature that is…

of World War I. Prior to this treaty’s creation, Woodrow Wilson unveiled an alternative plan, a plan intended to reunite that nations of the world and to heal the countries affected by World War I.

Woodrow Wilson, who had once seen the Confederacy’s President Jefferson Davis carried off in chains, lived with America’s collective memory of the devastating Civil War it had just experienced, while anticipating the nation’s growing influence throughout the world.
