INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Language is the most important thing in all parts of the world in having interactions with others people. People can communicate with the others include spoken or written language by making statements, explaining report, and expressing ideas. Without the existence of the language, people will have never been able to have a relation with others. Siahaan (2008:43) says that language is a unique human inheritance that plays very important role in human’s life, such as thinking, communicating ideas, and negotiating with the other. Language is the way. The languages show the similarities in their principle. All languages have this complex, many-layered structure. Owen (2006:1) says that language can be defined as a socially shared combination of those symbols and rule governed combinations of those symbols. Language which is governed by the provisions in questions as above is a cultural and also grammar, language has a very close relationship with grammar where language is a series of rules to learn grammar, rules governing use of language for forming a sentence. Moreover, we have seen to what extent situations conditions the way in which people speak or write. It will be helpful at this point to outline grammar model which relates to a sentence structure in language. When to describe the sentence in the novel, grammar is needed to help us understand about how to make sentences in paragraph and interesting. Grammar teaches us how to read, speak, and write English clear and right. 1 UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA Woods (2010:9-10) says, “Grammar also means a set of standard that you have to follow in order to speak and write better.

  • Chapter I Introduction
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Adaptation is often recognized in purely furtuitous effects, and natural selection is invoked to resolve problems that do not exist (Williams, 1966:4). The adaptation process takes place under natural selection, where an organism becomes better suited to its habitat. Also, the term may refer to some characteristics which stand out as being especially significant in the organism's survival. Adaptations develop as the result of natural selection operating on random genetic variations that are capable of being passed from one generation to the next. Variations that prove advantageous will tend to spread throughout the population. Human beings are biologically adapted for culture in ways that other primates are not, as evidenced most clearly by the fact that only human cultural traditions accumulate modifications over historical time. The key adaptation is one that enables individuals to understand other individuals as intentional agents like the self. This species-unique form of social cognition emerges in human ontogeny at approximately 1 year of age, as infants begin to engage with other persons in various kinds of joint attention activities involving gaze following, social referencing, and gestural communication. Young children’s joint attention skills then engender some uniquely powerful forms of cultural 1 2 learning, enabling the acquisition of language, discourse skills, tool-use practices, and other conventional activities. These forms of cultural learning allow human beings to, in effect, pool their cognitive resources both contemporaneously and over historical time in ways that are unique in the animal kingdom. Adaptation in this movie is appeared by the director Ryan Murphy, the reasons why he appeared little about adaptation maybe the story of this movie was real story in Ryan Murphy’s life.

She attended New York University, where she studied political science by day and worked on her short stories by night.

During these early years in New York, she also worked as a journalist for such publications as Spin, GQ and The New York Times Magazine. She was a three-time finalist for The National Magazine Award, and an article she wrote in GQ about her experiences bartending on the Lower East Side eventually became the basis for the movie COYOTE UGLY. In 2000, Elizabeth published her first novel, STERN MEN (a story of brutal territory wars between two remote fishing islands off the coast of Maine) which was a New York Times Notable Book. In 2002, Elizabeth published THE LAST AMERICAN MAN – the true story of the modern day woodsman Eustace Conway. This book, her first work of non- fiction, was a finalist for both the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award. Elizabeth is best known, however for her 2006 memoir EAT PRAY LOVE, which chronicled her journey alone around the world, looking for solace after a difficult divorce.

  • Global Citizen, Global Consumer: Study Abroad, Neoliberal Convergence, and the Eat, Pray, Love Phenomenon
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Nancy Barbour for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Women Studies, English, and College Student Services Administration presented on June 8, 2012. Title: Global Citizen, Global Consumer: Study Abroad, Neoliberal Convergence, and the Eat, Pray, Love Phenomenon Abstract approved: Patti L. Duncan This thesis examines the convergence of neoliberal rhetoric across popular media, academic, and institutional discourses, and draws connections between contemporary women’s travel literature and common scripts in study abroad promotion. Finding such narratives to be freighted with ethnocentric constructs and tacit endorsements of market-based globalization, I critique the mainstreaming of neoliberal attitudes that depict travel as a commodity primarily valuable for its role in increasing the worth of U.S. American personhood. I question both the prevailing definitions of “global citizenship” and the ubiquitous claims that study abroad prepares students for “success in the global economy” as ideological signifiers of a higher education system that is increasingly corporatized. Utilizing a postcolonial and transnational feminist theoretical framework, the thesis offers a literary analysis of contemporary women's travel memoirs, examining patterns of narcissism and “othering” in their depictions of cross-cultural encounter, and connects these neoliberal trends to consumerism in higher education, study abroad, and post-second wave feminism. Shared themes in the representation of privileged U.S./Western women abroad and the student-consumer model in higher education bespeak a movement toward individual international engagements that reinforce corporate motives for travel and endorse the commodification of global environments, cultures, and people. In hopes of contesting this paradigm, I argue for the reassertion of a social justice-oriented definition of global citizenship and for educational models that foster self-criticism and the decolonization of knowledge.
