Love is a powerful thing in this world which can influence someone’s life, so it will always be interesting to be told in a literary work. This thesis deals with Wilkie Collins’ work entitled The Moonstone. This novel tells about a mystery of the theft of an Indian idols’ diamond, named the Moonstone. In this story, there are four characters who play an important role. Those four characters experience and express two different ways of loving, there are selfish and unselfish ways of loving. The unselfish way of loving is ruled by honesty and patience, while the selfish way of loving is ruled by passion and wrong motivation. To gain the points of the study, the writer formulated two main problems. The first is to reveal the characteristics of the four characters in the novel and the second is to reveal selfish and unselfish ways of loving which are expressed by the four characters in the story. The study uses library research in completing this thesis since the writer collected data from several books. To answer the problems, this study uses psychological approach. This approach is used to deal with human life together with his mind and behavior. This study focuses on the four main characters’ ways of loving their beloved ones. From the analysis, the writer concluded that the four characters in the story express two different ways of loving their beloved ones. Rosanna and Godfrey’s way of loving can be considered as selfish because their love is ruled by passion and wrong motivation. Rosanna becomes blinded and unwise after realizing that Franklin does not love her and Godfrey expresses selfish way of loving since he actually does not love Rachel truly but he proposes her for only his mercenary motive. On the other hand, Franklin and Rachel’s way of loving someone is considered to be unselfish since their love is ruled by patience and honesty. Franklin and Rachel’s love is proved to be strong and honest. Franklin takes the responsibility after knowing that he is actually the person who took the diamond. However, his vindication is not only intended for his own goodness. While Rachel is able to love Franklin unselfishly even after seeing Franklin stole her diamond. She gives the opportunity for the man she loves. Franklin and Rachel own the essential attitude of love like loyalty, patience, modesty, forgiveness, sensitivity and strength. With such attitudes, their love to each other is completed in the right way.

Cara mencinta yang tidak egois didasari oleh kesabaran dan kejujuran, sedangkan cara mencinta yang tidak egois didasari oleh nafsu dan motivasi yang tidak baik. Untuk mendapatkan poin penting dalam pembahasan topik, penulis telah menyusun dua permasalahan: Yang pertama adalah karakter-karakter apa yang digambarkan oleh keempat tokoh dalam cerita, dan yang kedua adalah bagaimana cara mencinta yang egois dan cara mencinta yang tidak egois ditunjukkan oleh keempat tokoh dalam cerita.

  • Covert Female Power Mediating Identity in Wilkie Collins' The
    Covert Female Power Mediating Identity in Wilkie Collins’ The Moonstone Sydney Wildman Wilkie Collins’ text The Moonstone is a quintessential detective story which involves the theft of a precious diamond within a dynamic and complex family. The tale is recounted through shifting the narration between numerous characters. On the surface, the story is simple: the infamous Moonstone diamond has been stolen from Rachel Verinder, the heroine of the story. Her love interest, Franklin Blake serves as the hero, acting as the catalyst for the mystery’s narration as he asks the characters to recount “the story of the Moonstone… as far as our personal experience extends, and no farther”.1 He is responsible for piecing the narrative together, while also providing a substantial portion of the novel from his perspective. Indeed, Blake seems determined to solve the mystery. However, the detection work within the novel becomes more complex than a singular search for the diamond. Anne-Marie Beller argues that while “detection is a necessary quest to find the truth, meaning, and stability”2, the detection is not “merely concerned with finding out the truth about others, but more crucially about oneself”.3 Therefore, with Blake at the forefront of the detection, the process develops into a trajectory of self-discovery. Considering Blake’s contradictory sense of self, the mystery instead becomes a narrative about Blake’s identity shift from hero to thief. However, he is unable to uncover his identity alone. Instead, it is the covert forms of power that lower- and upper-class women hold – Rosanna Spearman and Rachel Verinder, respectively – that mediate Blake’s identity shift.

The plot of a detective story is based on the assumption that once the facts are discovered, the truth will come out and justice will be served. This thesis explores the interaction between truth and justice in Wilkie Collins’s The Moonstone and Charles Dickens’s Bleak House. While investigations may reveal the truth, this does not always lead to justice. Authors can uphold or deviate from traditional norms to reinforce or undermine the expectation that justice will be served. Keffeler 1 Truth and Justice in The Moonstone and Bleak House Introduction Victorians placed a high value on honesty. The cultural norm of the period was that people were expected to tell the truth (Kucich 6). There are many references by people such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and W. E. H. Lecky about how Victorians took pride in being candid and sincere. This emphasis on honesty led to moral values that placed great importance on the truth (Kucich 8).

  • Imperial Neuropsychology and an Indian Diamond: the Quantum Ground of Dreaming in the Moonstone Arup K
    Imperial neuropsychology and an Indian diamond I J o D R Imperial neuropsychology and an Indian diamond: The quantum ground of dreaming in The Moonstone Arup K. Chatterjee Jindal Global Law School, O.P. Jindal Global University, Sonipat, India. Summary. In Wilkie Collins’ novel The Moonstone (1868), Franklin Blake’s censored dream—and his somnambulant theft of the eponymous diamond—was a pioneering thought experiment in Victorian literature, which is also believed to have invented the English detective novel. The question, whether Blake’s supposed dream and somnambulism were constituted by his conscious waking experience or emerged from an unconscious source, remains unanswered as the contents of the dream are not known. Taking The Moonstone beyond the ambit of postcolonial criticism and Anglo-Indian imperial history, I present evidence for the novel’s theme of dreaming being encrypted with principles of Vedanta and ancient Indian dream theories from the Mandukya Upanishad. The novel compels us into a reassessment of the dream continuity hypothesis that its critics have hitherto presumed in one way or another. Taking a few concepts of quantum physics as insightful metaphors—though not as generalizable theories—I argue that, The Moonstone is a remarkable statement on Victorian science, which paves the way for what I define in ‘the quantum ground of dreaming’—a mental state superimposed in experiences of more than one geography and entangled with the desires and anxieties of more than one brain, at once. Keywords: Wilkie Collins; The Moonstone; Sigmund Freud; Carl Jung; psychoanalysis; neuroscience; Vedanta; Man- dukya Upanishad; Turiya; dream quanta 1. Introduction uel Taylor Coleridge’s poem ‘Kubla Khan; or a Vision in a Dream’ (1816) made dreaming appear as a surreal Oriental Victorian England’s interest in dreaming can be judged from experience.
