  • Chapter I Introduction
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study One of interesting literary theories is Psychology. Psychoanalysis is a branch of psychology that methodology of studying mental process and mental behavior. Psychoanalysis related to structural, process and developmental change. Basically, Psychology has the relation between people behavior and the other human. It comprises everything related to the feeling, thought, behavior, ideas, etc. related to the psychology, every person are created with different personalities. The quality of personality is being a person. Personality is deeper than character. It does not confine itself to an organized expression as character does. In a movie, the personality of the main character is interesting object for the researcher to analyze. Personality in a movie is closely related to personal psychological behavior, because it is shown many ways, like actions, dialogues, attitudes, and characteristics that influence the personality. It means that character can influence personality, but personality is unchanging. Wellek and Werren (1956: 31) in theory of literature state that literature has function as the duce and the utile. They said that the work of literature is successful, the two “notes” of pleasure and utility should not coexist but coalesce. The pleasure of literature need to maintain is not one of 1 2 preferences among along list of possible pleasure but also a “higher-pleasure” because pleasure is higher kind of activity, i.e. non-acquisitive contemplation.

According to Pervin (1984: 2) the field of personality is concerned with the total individual and with individual differences.

Finally our Hunting Zone talks guns and hunting predators, for those of you who have already tagged out on turkey.

We need to keep our fishery stable and thriving. Share the video all you can and get the word out about how we should not treat our catches. March was one big month for www.odumagazine.com!
