  • 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Literature
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Literature is a permanent expression in words of some thoughts or feeling or idea about life and the world. Literature is also the writing or the study of books, valued as works of art (drama, fiction, essay, poetry, biography, contrasted with technical books and journalism). The main generic of literature today is poetry, drama and the novel. There are some ways to express ideas, especially in a literary work. There is a literary work that brings us to the world of dreams and takes us away from reality. Most human in social life communicating with others are looking for relationship. When communication is going well between each other in a relationship, people will look for one basic need of human being that is affection. Affection is a disposition or rare state of mind or body that is often associated with a feeling or type of love. It has given rise to a number of branches of philosophy and psychology concerning emotion, disease, influence, and state of being. "Affection" is popularly used to denote a feeling or type of love, amounting to more than goodwill or friendship. “Affection is defined as feeling warmth and fondness toward someone, which can be manifested through affectionate communication, involving verbal and non-verbal massages that communicate feelings of fondness, support, and love." (Floyd, 2006: 47) 1 2 The expression of affection is anything that could be said to or about the other persons that cause them to feel encouraged, loved, or validated. This included, but is not limited to, the obvious statement “I love you”.

His father, Patrick Michael (Mike), was a graduate student for much of Nicholas’ early life, so the family lived in a num- ber of college towns before settling in Fair Oaks, California, when Nicholas was eight. Nicholas’ mother, Jill EmmaMarie (Jill), worked as both a homemaker and optometrist’s assistant. All three Sparks chil- dren, including Nicholas’ older brother, Micah, and younger sister, Danielle, were born within a three-year period, and the closeness in age created a strong bond between them. Education and Work Experience Nicholas excelled in high school, graduating valedictorian of his class and earning notice as a middle-distance runner. He accepted a full ath- letic scholarship to the University of Notre Dame and set a school record as part of a relay team, but he found himself hampered by an Achilles tendon injury the summer after his freshman year.

  • Throw Nicholas Sparks and 'The Notebook' Into the Trash
    Throw Nicholas Sparks And 'The Notebook' Into The Trash vice.com/en_us/article/a3xavz/nicholas-sparks-the-notebook-twilight-stephanie-meyers-canceled June 13, 2019 When it comes to romance films, The Notebook sits comfortably in the top tier. The movie, adapted in 2004 from Nicholas Sparks' 1996 novel, stars Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling, the quintessential pair of the early aughts. The film features an abundance of kissing in the rain, snail mail ("I wrote you every day for a year!"), and a love triangle with James Marsden —could you blame Allie? Fifteen years after the silver screen debut of the now cult classic movie, the love story is being adapted again for Broadway. This legacy has made it seem as though Allie and Noah's love was bulletproof, but a recent story in The Daily Beast reveals author Nicholas Sparks prohibited the creation of an LGBT club at the Christian school he co-founded in North Carolina. No amount of New York Times bestsellers or film adaptations can substitute for being a good person. In 2017, The Daily Beast reported on a lawsuit that alleges the author purposely discriminated against minority students at the Epiphany School. On Thursday, The Daily Beast published leaked emails between Sparks and former headmaster Saul Benjamin that show Sparks attempting to forbid LGBT clubs and protests on school grounds. "Sparks and members of the Board unapologetically marginalized, bullied, and harassed, members of the school community whose religious views and/or identities did not conform to their religiously driven, bigoted preconceptions," Benjamin's legal team claimed in a 47-page complaint filed in 2017.

  • 'The Notebook' Author Nicholas Sparks Hits Back at Claims He's
    ‘The Notebook’ Author Nicholas Sparks Hits Back At Claims He’s Homophobic And Racist uproxx.com/movies/the-notebook-nicholas-sparks-homophobic-racist-claims June 13, 2019 Good news: Nicholas Sparks is taking advantage of Broadway’s craze for movie adaptations by turning the popular romance The Notebook into a musical. Bad news: He’s also been accused of homophobia as well as racism. In a series of tweets, caught by Deadline, Sparks slammed these charges, claiming they’re untrue. On Thursday The Daily Beast dug up a long-going legal battle between the romance author — whose other works include A Walk to Remember, Message in a Bottle, and Dear John, all turned into movies — and the Epiphany School of Global Studies, a North Carolina prep school Sparks helped co-fund in 2006. In 2013 the institution received a new headmaster and CEO, Saul Benjamin, who tried to expand diversity and inclusivity. Sparks allegedly took umbrage with this approach. In a series of alleged emails, Sparks slammed Benjamin for adopting “an agenda that strives to make homosexuality open and accepted.” Sparks also allegedly made comments about the dearth of black students at the school, “too poor and can’t do the academic work.” Benjamin, who left the school after the tussle, sued Sparks and the fellow trustees for, among other things, defamation of character. A trial is set for August. Advertisement Following the article’s publication, Sparks took to social media to deny these claims. pic.twitter.com/y4nZX6TByD — Nicholas Sparks (@NicholasSparks) June 13, 2019 “Since 2014, I have vigorously been defending the lawsuit brought against me and the Epiphany School of Global Studies by its former headmaster, Saul Benjamin,” Sparks tweeted.

  • Discussion on the Narrative Aesthetics of the Piano Score of Films Gaoyang Liu Sichuan University of Arts and Science, Dazhou 635000, China
    International Journal of Science Vol.5 No.10 2018 ISSN: 1813-4890 Discussion on the Narrative Aesthetics of the Piano Score of Films Gaoyang Liu Sichuan University of Arts and Science, Dazhou 635000, China. Abstract Since the birth of the film, it is tightly bound to the piano score; the film may be called as audio- visual feast, lustrous and dazzling dream machine. The film piano score involves the following links: biography on the theme of music master, literary films which take pianists as objects, growth films based on piano learning, and classic piano music that is familiar to the audience in the ordinary film. The piano background is not only able to render the atmosphere, but also brew the keynote, more importantly; they make the plot dramatic effect and tension space, reflect the narrative aesthetics which the films tell story with pictures, the audience is deeply infected and purified. Keywords Film; piano score; narrative aesthetics. 1. Introduction Eighty-eight black and white keys, in the variegated light and shadow, tell story with one climax following another, no matter war scene and human brilliance in the "The Pianist", or indispensable, young and pure love in "The Notebook", the artistic conception arise spontaneously, and the memory is embedded. Shostakovich thought "when words and languages are difficult to express something, the language charm of music has just begun," film narrative, the piano score that emerges as the times require is embroider flowers on brocade. As the "seventh art", the film is originally a combination of sound and picture, audio-visual integration, light and shadow narrative; and the "king of musical instrument" piano has a wide range of sounds; tone color is clear, varied and expressive.
