    1 Unlikability and Female Villains in the Works of Gillian Flynn Cannon Elder Lane High Point, North Carolina Bachelor of Arts, English, University of Virginia, 2017 Bachelor of Arts, Spanish, University of Virginia, 2017 A Thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts Department of English University of Virginia May 2018 2 Introduction: In recent years, television and popular fiction have begun to feature a new type of female character termed the “unlikable” woman. From popular novels such as Gillian Flynn’s Gone Girl and Paula Hawkins’ The Girl on the Train to TV shows such as Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag and Lena Dunham’s Girls, popular cultural products in recent years have begun to center on a depiction of women distinct from any before—at least in terminology.1 In each of these works, female writers depict troubled women, from murderers and alcoholics to narcissists, each unwilling to conform to the standards and expectations of representations of women. In each of these works, the authors of these characters refuse to position them as role models, instead focusing on their extreme negative capacity, presenting their story arcs not as ones of redemption or correction, but as ones of continuous development and iteration of personal defect. Against the trend of hailing positive representations of women in fiction, these flawed and profoundly human characters slide the scale in the opposite direction. Instead of proving the equal intelligence, strength, and positive capacity of women, these characters work to accentuate the negative.

Dalam menganalisis Dark Places, penelitian ini menggunakan teori Marxis-feminis dan teori perjuangan yang disajikan oleh Marsam (2000). Jenis-jenis perjuangan perempuan yang coba ditekankan oleh Gillian Flynn adalah perjuangan dalam ekonomi seperti: kelas sosial, perjuangan kelas, dan akses ke kapasitas finansial. Dengan mengamati latar belakang kehidupan tokoh utama dan hubungan sosial yang memengaruhi tokoh utama dalam melakukan beberapa tindakan perjuangan, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penggambaran perjuangan perempuan dapat dilihat dalam bentuk diskriminasi yang terjadi pada tokoh utama. Dark Places memberikan gambaran yang jelas bahwa perjuangan wanita dalam novel adalah untuk memberi tahu pembaca, terutama pembaca wanita, untuk lebih sadar akan apa yang mungkin mereka alami sebagai istri dan ibu di masa depan. Kata Kunci: perjuangan, diskriminasi, feminisme, teori marxis-feminis, kinnakee Abstract This research aims to investigate the kinds of woman struggle that experienced by Patty Day in Dark Places by Gillian Flynn, its depiction in the novel, and the reason why the issue is depicted by the author in her novel.

  • Reading Group Discussion Questions – Gone Girl 1. Do You Like Nick Or
    Reading Group Discussion Questions – Gone Girl 1. Do you like Nick or Amy? Did you find yourself picking a side? Do you think the author intends for us to like them? Why or why not? 2. Does the author intend for us to think of Nick or Amy as the stronger writer? Do you perceive one or the other as a stronger writer, based on their narration/journal entries? Why? 3. Do you think Amy and Nick both believe in their marriage at the outset 4. Nick, ever conscious of the way he is being perceived, reflects on the images that people choose to portray in the world—constructed, sometimes plagiarized roles that we present as our personalities. Discuss the ways in which the characters—and their opinions of each other—are influenced by our culture’s avid consumption of TV shows, movies, and websites, and our need to fit each other into these roles. 5. Discuss Amy’s false diary, both as a narrative strategy by the author and as a device used by the character. How does the author use it to best effect? How does Amy use it? 6. What do you make of Nick’s seeming paranoia on the day of his fifth anniversary, when he wakes with a start and reports feeling, You have been seen 7. As experienced consumers of true crime and tragedy, modern “audiences” tend to expect each crime to fit a specific mold: a story, a villain, a heroine. How does this phenomenon influence the way we judge news stories? Does it have an impact on the criminal justice system? Consider the example of the North Carthage police, and also Tanner Bolt’s ongoing advice to Nick.

  • CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background of the Study in This Life
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background of the Study In this life, human beings have life needs that must be fulfilled, especially primary needs. Life needs here are divided into three needs. The first need is primary needs which include clothing, food, shelter. The second is secondary needs, the needs of which are fulfilled after primary needs are met which include education, tourism or recreation. The third is tertiary needs, which include cars, motorcycles, computers, gadgets that fulfill their needs after secondary needs are met. Nevertheless, sometimes not everyone lives in luck, and those who are unlucky may struggle very hard to fulfill their needs, especially for people who lives in poverty circle. People who live in poverty should work hard to feed their family, although they have to do it with the wrong way. In this research, the researcher is interested in the issue about struggle. Struggle is not primarily physical, it can also be intellectual or psychological according to Adams and Balfour (in Muel, 2015). People are able to struggle for a better future also better environment that is valuable to them. Public are able to struggle against something unwanted such as scarcity, since there is something else they rate, and in this case is prosperity (Kaptein, 2017). In other hand, the researcher examined the opposite of prosperity that is argued by Kaptein on the theory above, because the issue that is raised by the researcher was examining the struggle of women in facing poverty. The poverty that is depicted in this novel is a struggle of a mother to support for her family's life, and the form of the struggle is a physical struggle.

  • Libby Day's Pursuing Family Love: a Lacanian Psychoanalysis
    IR - PERPUSTAKAAN UNIVERSITAS AIRLANGGA CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background of the Study Traumatic events have a great impact on affecting and shaping in human behavior, characters and self-development towards everything in our life. In some cases, some people experience trauma and distressing events in their early childhood and teenager phase. When someone grows up in a traumatic and bad environment, sometimes one can only imagine and consider themselves to be victims from the tragedy that believes suffering should be eradicated. Also, when a traumatic event happens, the subject might experience losing a person, family or personal thing that makes them realize the emptiness and unhappiness because they separated from their loved ones after the tragic event happened. Loss is separation, Of the many aspects that need to be considered in all kinds of losses (loss of relatives, area where a language is spoken, familiar environment), the aspect of separation from the reference person is central. It is definitely no coincidence that a whole area of study has arisen in recent decades dealing with the issue of trauma and separation. It makes sense to see this widespread interest in the issues of separation, which also emerges in psychological literature, as an expression of a concrete, collective human experience of the 20th century, which witnessed million-fold persecution, war, expulsion and flight. Throughout social studies, psychological, and literature, the topics of separation focus very much on marriage and mother-child relationships and are often largely disconnected from the national 1 SKRIPSI LIBBY DAY'S PURSUING...
