The Analysis of Moral Ambiguity Seen in Long John Silver’s Characterization in Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. Yogyakarta: Department of English Letters, Faculty of Letters, Sanata Dharma University. Novel is one of many genres in literary work. Treasure Island is a novel that is written by Robert Louis Stevenson. Treasure Island is an adventure novel that narrates a tale of pirates and buried gold. This novel was published in 1883. In this study, the writer wants to analyze the moral ambiguity of the character named Long John Silver. This study has two objectives. First, the writer wants to find out the Long John Silver’s characteristics in the novel. Second, the writer wants to reveal the moral ambiguity seen in Long John Silver’s characterization. The method that is applied in this study is library research. The primary source is the novel itself entitled Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson. The secondary sources are from criticism, article and other related to the novel. In answering the problems, the writer applies some theories; those are theory of character, characterization, moral, ambiguity and moral ambiguity. The study applies moral-philosophical approach. In the analysis the writer finds that Long John Silver has several characteristics, which are dangerous, manipulative, treacherous, cruel and kind. Besides, the writer finds that Long John Silver deals with moral ambiguity. Long John Silver’s moral ambiguity can be seen through his action he does to the other characters in the novel. It is shown when he manipulates Jim Hawkins and his own men. At the time he manipulates Jim Hawkins, he does it to deceive Jim Hawkins. This action is as an act of evil. But when long John Silver uses his same skill as what he does to Jim Hawkins to save Jim Hawkins’s life from the threat of Long John Silver own men, it becomes a virtue. This is how Long John Silver’s moral ambiguity is revealed through his characterization. x ABSTRAK RONNY SANTOSO. The Analysis of Moral Ambiguity Seen in Long John Silver’s Characterization in Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. Yogyakarta: Jurusan Sastra Inggris, Fakultas Sastra, Universitas Sanata Dharma. Novel merupakan salah satu jenis dari karya sastra. Treasure Island adalah sebuah novel karya Rober Louis Stevenson. Treasure Island adalah sebuah novel petualangan yang menceritakan sebuah kisah bajak laut and harta karun. Novel ini pertama kali di publikasikan pada tahun 1883. Dalam studi ini, penulis ingin menganalisa tentang keambiguitasan moral pada tokoh yang bernama Long John Silver. Studi ini membahas dua permasalahan. Pertama, penulis ini memaparkan sifat-sifat Long John Silver dalam novel ini. Kedua, penulis ingin mengungkapkan keambiguitasan moral Long John Silver di tinjau dari penokohannya. Metode yang di pakai dalam studi ini adalah studi pustaka. Sumber utama dalam studi ini adalah novel itu sendiri yang berjudul Treasure Island karya Robert Louis Stevenson, dan data data pendukungnya dari kritik-kritik, artikel- artikel, dan sumber-sumber lain yang berkaitan dengan novel tersebut. Dalam menjawab masalah-masalah yang di ajukan, penulis menggunakan beberapa teori, yaitu teori karakter, penokohan, moral, keambiguitasan dan keambiguitasan moral. Studi ini menggunakan pendekatan moral-filosofis. Dalam analisa penulis menemukan bahwa Long John Silver memiliki beberapa sifat, yaitu berbahaya, memanipulasi, pengkhianat, kejam dan baik. Selain itu, penulis juga menemukan bahwa Long John Silver memiliki keambiguitasan moral. Keambiguitasan moral Long John Silver dapat dilihat melalui tindakannya kepada tokoh-tokoh lain. Ini di tunjukkan ketika Long John Silver memanipulasi Jim Hawkins dan anak buahnya sendiri. Pada saat Long John Silver memanipulasi Jim Hawkins, dia melakukannya untuk menipu Jim Hawkins. Tindakan ini adalah sebagai tindakan jahat. Tapi ketika Long John Silver menggunakan keahlian yang sama seperti yang dia lakukan kepada Jim Hawkins untuk menyelamatkan Jim Hawkins dari ancaman anak buah Long John Silver, ini menjadi sebuah tindakan kebaikan. Inilah bagaimana keambiguitasan moral Long John Silver di tunjukan dari penokohanya. xi CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Life

  • Treasure Island
    School Radio Treasure Island 3. Long John Silver and the Hispaniola Narrator: Three weeks after Jim Hawkins escapes the pirate gang with Billy Bones’ treasure map, he arrives in Bristol on a hot Sunday morning. What a city. The gateway to the Oceans of the World. Tea, sugar, cotton, coffee, slaves - aye, slaves - fill the streets and the docks. The great masts of a dozen fleets tower over the quays. Sailors, travellers, the rich and the poor throng the busy streets all of them hungry for money or food - or adventure. Jim has a note - he must find a Mr Silver who will show him to the Squire’s ship. Jim finds him all right down on the quayside - and there’s a shock, for as he comes up behind the man, he sees he has only one leg. Could this be the pirate, so feared by Billy Bones? Jim: Mister... Silver... sir? Long John Silver: Silver? Long John Silver you be intending to say, I’m sure, and who may you be? Narrator: Jim stares up. Tall and strong, with a face as big as a ham, intelligent and smiling, Long John Silver winks down at him. Jim relaxes - this man’s no pirate. Jim: Jim Hawkins, sir. Cabin boy to the new ship. Long John Silver: Is that so? Jim: Squire Trelawney’s ship. Sir. Long John Silver: Well, pleased I am to see you my boy. I’m ship’s cook - and now you’re come, we must go aboard. Hop in now. Narrator: With a graceful turn and a jump, Silver’s down into a little boat, untying the rope and preparing to row.

"For Heaven's sake heave out the ballast!" "There! the last sack is empty!" "Does the balloon rise?" "No!" "I hear a noise like the dashing of waves. The sea is below the car! It cannot be more than 500 feet from us!" "Overboard with every weight! . everything!" Such were the loud and startling words which resounded through the air, above the vast watery desert of the Pacific, about four o'clock in the evening of the 23rd of March, 1865. Few can possibly have forgotten the terrible storm from the northeast, in the middle of the equinox of that year. The tempest raged without intermission from the 18th to the 26th of March. Its ravages were terrible in America, Europe, and Asia, covering a distance of eighteen hundred miles, and extending obliquely to the equator from the thirty-fifth north parallel to the fortieth south parallel. Towns were overthrown, forests uprooted, coasts devastated by the mountains of water which were precipitated on them, vessels cast on the shore, which the published accounts numbered by hundreds, whole districts leveled by waterspouts which destroyed everything they passed over, several thousand people crushed on land or drowned at sea; such were the traces of its fury, left by this devastating tempest. It surpassed in disasters those which so frightfully ravaged Havana and Guadalupe, one on the 25th of October, 1810, the other on the 26th of July, 1825.

With the musical climax, the lid of the chest opens with a horrifying groan. Light starts to emanate from the chest, and the spotlight dims.

Grey the cloudland drifted o'er us, When these ears first heard you talking, When these eyes first saw you smiling. Years of famine, years of plenty, Years of beckoning and beguiling. Years of yielding, shifting, baulking, ' When the good ship Clansman ' bore us Round the spits of Tobermory, Glens of Voulin like a vision. Crags of Knoidart, huge and hoary, We had laughed in light derision. Had they told us, told the daring Tusitala, What the years' pale hands were bearing, Years in stately dim division. II Now the skies are pure above you, Tusitala; Feather'd trees bow down to love you 1 This poem, addressed to Robert Louis Stevenson, reached him at Vailima three days before his death. It was the last piece of verse read by Stevenson, and it is the subject of the last letter he wrote on the last day of his life. The poem was read by Mr. Lloyd Osbourne at the funeral. It is here printed, by kind permission of the author, from Mr. Edmund Gosse's ' In Russet and Silver,' 1894, of which it was the dedication. After the Photo by] [./.

  • Outlyers: Maroons and Marronage in Eighteenth and Nineteenth-Century Literature
    Outlyers: Maroons and Marronage in Eighteenth and Nineteenth-Century Literature By Sarah Jessica Johnson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Stephen Best, Chair Professor Kathleen Donegan Professor Nadia Ellis Professor Karl Britto Spring 2018 1 Abstract Outlyers: Maroons and Marronage in Eighteenth and Nineteenth-Century Literature By Sarah Jessica Johnson Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Berkeley Professor Stephen Best, Chair My dissertation, “Outlyers: Maroons and Marronage in Eighteenth and Nineteenth-Century Literature,” foregrounds an archival pursuit in which recovery is deprioritized. Crucial to this study is an archival paradox: Maroons absented themselves from the printed record, eschewed the position of author, only to be figured and represented by others who, expectedly, struggled with the depiction of a practice they could not know firsthand. The intentional erasure of “traces” by maroons was necessary to the successful practice of marronage. The project is organized around four “maroon objects”—the portrait, the fetish, the epaulette, and the hatchet—that recur in historical representations concerning maroons. These maroon objects mediate maroon subject and text. My first chapter, “Maroon Portraits,” examines the circulating narratives of La Mulâtresse Solitude of Guadeloupe. Solitude sits for a portrait that is continuously painted, as artists insist on producing visual images in tension with the long textual record that precedes them. Chapter Two, “Maroon Fetishes,” reads the proliferation of fetishes in Le Macandal by Marie Augustin and other iterations of the story of Haitian Maroon leader François Macandal.

Loechle ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii Acknowledgments I am indebted to many people for the help and encouragement they have given me during the long duration of this project. From academic and financial to editorial and emotional, I was never lacking in support. I am truly thankful, not to mention lucky. Sarah Burns, my advisor and mentor, supported my ideas, cheered my successes, and patiently edited and helped me to revise my failures. I also owe her thanks for encouraging me to pursue an unorthodox topic. From the moment pirates came up during one of our meetings in the spring of 2005, I was hooked. She knew it, and she continuously suggested ways to expand the idea first into an independent study, and then into this dissertation. My dissertation committee – Janet Kennedy, Patrick McNaughton, and Beverly Stoeltje – likewise deserves my thanks for their mentoring and enthusiasm. Other scholars have graciously shared with me their knowledge and input along the way. David M. Lubin read a version of my third chapter and gave me helpful advice, opening up to me new ways of thinking about Howard Pyle in particular.
