Opal’s Unhappy-Childhood Stemmed from Asperger’s Syndrome As Seen through the Personifications in Jane Boulton’s The Journal of An Understanding Heart. Yogyakarta: Department of English Letters, Faculty of Letters, Sanata Dharma University, 2011. Opal Whiteley, a lonely girl who is adopted by Whiteley family after losing her true parents in the age of four, has amazed many people after her childhood diary is published in her age of twenty. The diary records Opal’s daily life including her interaction with animals, plants, and the nature surrounding her. The interaction between Opal and those objects is interesting because she treats them as human being. In the scope of poetry, however, the endowment of human attributes addressed to those objects is stated as personification. The personifications written in some stanzas in The Journal of An Understanding Heart show Opal’s Unhappy-childhood. There are two objectives to be attained in this study. The first objective is to show the personifications in The Journal of An Understanding Heart. The second objective is to see Opal’s unhappy-childhood through the personifications. The writer used library research in this study to get most necessary references, while the approach applied here is psychological approach. The analyses are sequenced into, first, examining the personifications and, second, examining the interaction between Opal and the personified objects to see Opal’s unhappy- childhood. This study finds that there are personifications in some stanzas in The Journal of An Understanding Heart. The interaction between Opal and the personified objects shows that Opal has behavior disorder. That disorder is stated as Asperger’s syndrome. Asperger’s syndrome in girls are difficult to diagnose because their behavior seem like normal girls. Thus, Opal’s behavior disorder is not known by her parents, therefore she does not get any special treatment for her condition. The result is that she feels alone along of her childhood as her syndrome disables her to make relationship with other people, especially children around her age. Escaping her loneliness, Opal has more intense interacted with the objects that are considered as humans. Her intense interaction with the personified objects makes her more and more has difficulty to communicate with other. This condition makes Opal often feels alone along and being unhappy during her childhood. x ABSTRAK DONI AGUNG SETIAWAN. Opal’s Unhappy-Childhood Stemmed from Asperger’s Syndrome As Seen through the Personifications in Jane Boulton’s The Journal of An Understanding Heart. Yogyakarta: Department of English Letters, Faculty of Letters, Sanata Dharma University, 2011. Opal Whiteley, gadis kecil kesepian yang telah diadopsi oleh keluarga Whiteley setelah ia kehilangan kedua orang tua aslinya ketika ia berumur empat tahun, telah membuat banyak orang terkesan setelah buku harian masa kecilnya diterbitkan di usianya yang ke dua puluh. Buku harian tersebut merekam kehidupan Opal sehari-hari, yang meliputi interaksinya dengan banyak binatang, tumbuhan, dan alam di sekelilingnya. Interaksi antara Opal dengan obyek-obyek tersebut menjadi hal yang menarik karena dia memperlakukan obyek-obyek tersebut seperti halnya manusia. Dalam ruang lingkup puisi, penambahan atribut ke-manusia-an kepada obyek-obyek tersebut merupakan personifikasi. Personifikasi-personifikasi yang tertulis dalam bait-bait di buku The Journal of An Understanding Heart menunjukkan masa kecil Opal yang tidak bahagia. Ada dua tujuan yang akan dicapai dalam penelitian ini. Tujuan pertama adalah untuk menunjukan personifikasi-personifikasi yang ada dalam The Journal of An Understanding Heart. Tujuan kedua adalah untuk melihat masa kecil Opal yang tidak bahagia melalui personifikasi-personifikasi tersebut. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pustaka yang mengambil beberapa sumber dari buku dan dokument-dokumen dari jaringan internet, sedangkan pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan psikologis. Urutan pembahasan dalam penelitian ini adalah, pertama, meneliti personifikasi- personifikasi dan, kedua, menunjukkan masa kecil Opal yang tidak bahagia melalui interaksi antara Opal dengan obyek-obyek yang terpersonifikasi. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa ada beberapa personifikasi pada bait-bait di The Journal of An Understanding Heart. Interaksi antara Opal dengan obyek-oyek yang terpersonifikasi menunjukkan bahwa Opal memiliki perilaku yang menyimpang. Penyakit tersebut dinyatakan sebagai sindrom Asperger. Sindrom Asperger pada anak perempuan sulit untuk diketahui karena perilaku mereka seakan-akan normal. Demikian, perilaku Opal yang menyimpang tersebut tidak terkenali oleh kedua orang tuanya, oleh karena itu ia tidak mendapatkan perlakuan khusus atas kondisinya. Akibatnya, ia meresa kesepian di sepanjang masa kecilnya sebagaimana sindrom tersebut membuatnya sulit untuk menjalin relasi dengan orang lain, terutama dengan anak seusianya. Sebagai pelarian atas kesepiannya, Opal semakin intens berinteraksi dengan obyek-obyek terpersonifikasi yang telah ia anggap seperti manusia. Interaksi yang semakin intens tersebut membuat ia semakin kesulitan untuk berkomunikasi dengan orang lain. Kondisi tersebut membuat Opal sering merasa kesepian dan tidak bahagia di sepanjang masa kanak-kanaknya. xi CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background Rene Wellek and Austin Warren say in his book that the natural and sensible starting point for work in literary scholarship is the interpretation and analysis of the work it self. After all, only the work itself justifies the interest in seeing the life of an author (Wellek and Warren, 1956: 139). It is, indeed, also happened in the study of poetry. True poetry, Guerin quotes Crane’s statement, is always a direct outpouring of personal feeling; that its values are determined by the nature of the emotion

My dissertation exposes the fundamental flaw in extending this injunction to the literary production of real children. By recovering the wildly popular, critically acclaimed and bestselling juvenilia of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, I contend that child- authored texts make manifest individual children’s absorption and manipulation of culture. Although critics such as Beverly Lyon Clark aptly note a growing bifurcation of children’s and adult’s literature at the turn of the century, I argue that adult and child authors alike participated in the construction of the “real child” as a trope of literary representation.

  • Fairyland Diaries
    Opal Whiteley’s Fairyland Diaries Over 180 Diary Entries With 300 Research Notes Compiled by Stephen Williamson © 2018 People have long wanted me to write down what I know about Opal Whiteley. “The Fairyland Diaries” contains much of what I have collected. The number one thing people have asked me is if there were more of her diary entries in existence. Until recently the answer was no. But, now I am very glad to present some of what may be from her lost diaries. These “Fairyland Diaries” cover Opal’s years from about age nine to age nineteen. Several entries may be from younger years - the time of her childhood diary. These diary entries give us new insights into Opal and her life. Here are over 300 research notes for almost 190 diary entries! This document is dedicated to everyone who has helped (or criticized) my work over the years. I have learned from each of you. I hope you enjoy these “Fairyland Diaries”. Most of these 180+ diary entries are in her first book, The Fairyland Around Us (1918) - a science textbook for teaching young people both nature and spirituality. The entries are scattered throughout the book and not in chronological order -but they total almost 30,000 words. I have organized these diary entries by month from January through December. While biographers have mentioned a few of these, this is the first time they have all been collected. I have added paragraphs for easier reading on screen. You can also read them without my research notes in PDF format.

  • World Anthology for the Protocol for World Peace
    WORLD BIBLIOGRAPHIC INDEX: ALPHABETICAL (I) AND IN ORDER OF ACCESS (II) The collection of texts, from which the materials for the data base of The Protocol for World Peace were abstracted, was begun on January 1, 2000, and the finishing work on the final portion of this effort—the Four Governing Indices (World Table of Contents, World Authors A- Z, World Bibliography, World Archives)—was completed on Christmas Day, 2017. * In this bibliography, every effort has been made to discover for each source its card catalogue identification in the constituent libraries of Cornell University, which appears in each entry as a single-word English short-form of their names—OLIN, ASIA, URIS, AFRICANA, COX, ILR (International Labor Relations) etc.—printed prior to each catalogue number. Very occasionally the source is designated in the RARE collection, referring to the library housed in the Rare Book depository; even more occasionally the source is designated as an “Electronic Resource” (If the source edition actually used is not listed, the nearest English-language edition is listted; if there is no English edition, the closest non-English; if the work is entirely absent, but there is present something else by the author that has been collected, the citation “other stuff” will be seen.) In many cases, these catalogue entries are twinned, and the Cornell reference invariably follows the catalogue entry of the library where the source was originally discovered, thus: [ original citation | Cornell citation ]. * The collection was begun through the auspices of the Interlibrary Loan Department of the Southeast Steuben County Public Library in Corning, New York, and for the first year or so liberal use was made of the various public libraries affiliated in this public library system.

One of the largest regional publishers west of the Mississippi was the Binfords & Mort publishing company of Portland, Oregon. In 1930, Binfords & Mort began publishing works of fiction, history, poetry, children’s literature, and natural history by Pacific Northwest authors with content focused on the Pacific Northwest. Between 1930 and 1984, when the Binford family sold the publishing company, Binfords & Mort published around one thousand titles, and became a one of the leading influences on the Oregon literary scene.

  • Les Identités Simulées Et Dissimulées D'opal Whiteley. Les Tropes Français
    LES IDENTITÉS SIMULÉES ET DISSIMULÉES D ’O PAL WHITELEY . LES TROPES FRANÇAIS DANS LA RIVIÈRE AU BORD DE L ’EAU . JOURNAL D ’UNE ENFANT D’AILLEURS Damian MASŁOWSKI Université Nicolas Copernic, Toru ń Abstract (En): In 2006, by dint of the release of the French translation of The Story Of Opal: The Journal Of An Understanding Heart (La Rivière au bord de l ’eau. Journal d ’une enfant d’ailleurs ), Opal Whiteley was introduced to French readers. Born in 1897 in Colton, in Washington, Oregon, she chose a particular avenue of escapism, the invention of a new personality: the lost daughter of Prince Henri of Orléans (1867-1901). This kind of dissimulation of identity means the rejection of her family of lumberjacks together with their unremarkable entourage. Such an attitude stems from her childish imagination as well as from various dissociative disorders. In the present paper we submit The Story Of Opal and the biography of the famous Oregonian to analysis. Therein, we will try to find the fountainhead of her fascination towards the historical and cultural heritage of France that affected her life, her discourse and her works. As a result, it is extremely interesting to see and understand Opal Whiteley’s tendency to the French pen- names and aliases. She was, inter alia : Françoise d'Orlá, Marie de Bourbon, Francesca Henriette Marguerite d'Orléans or Françoise Marie de Bourbon-Orléans. Nevertheless, the simulated origin of the author has never been definitely established by critics. The age at which Whiteley wrote her “journal” is also disputable. She claimed that she was six years old at the moment of finishing her manuscript (published in 1920).
