George Orwell, Aldous Huxley and Ray Bradbury are best known for their descriptions of prospective future societies. The novel “Fahrenheit 451”, written by Bradbury nearly sixty years ago, is one of the best examples and still remains relevant in our society today.
In this term paper the novel “Fahrenheit 451” will be examined in more detail with regard to aspects of “cultural decay”. Before discussing several text passages, the term will be specified in order to clarify why and when we talk about “cultural decay”.

The novel “Fahrenheit 451” by Ray Bradbury is the major source of this term paper. Several websites were used in addition to that.
