What external factors in Fahrenheit 451 influence Guy Montag?

Answer 1

The external factors which influence Guy Montag are the very ones he and the society of which he is a part are forbidden to utilize--literature, art, really anything which can bring about diversity and culture within the confines of the country's overarching tyrannical Dictatorship. Early in the novel, he is introduced to a variety of books which he is instructed to burn. He hesitates, however, and later begins reading texts he has never before encountered, one of which is The Bible. As he reads, he self-actualizes, and the truth of society's superficiality and controlled ignorance forces him to take matters into his own hands--a decision which ultimately results in both his being ostracized and, as revealed in the end, his salvation.
