INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the study Moral Value is something high, valuable, important and useful for human. Moral Value is a belief or feeling that is believed to be an identity which gives a special pattern to a way of thinking, feeling, attachment and behavior. The Moral Value is closely related to the way people assess. Values and literature are complementary and are inseparable. Literary works were born and sourced from human life and have a high value. Literature will be a contribution to the formation of values so that lovers of literature will be civilized, well-mannered, and virtuous men, and agreeing with the applicable rules. The values in the literature usually reflect the views of the author‘s life or values that are attractive to the author and are necessary to convey to the readers. Moral value does not stand-alone without other value. Moral values did not separate with other values. Moral values are nothing without other values. It is form of formality. Max Scheler mentioned in Bertens that moral values “get a lift” to other values. Moral is something to be conveyed by the author to the reader, where the meaning contained in a literature work and the suggested meaning is conveyed through stories. That means the authors express a moral message to the readers through literary works, either directly or indirectly. Moral in literature usually 1 1 Universitas Sumatera Utara reflects the views of the authors‘ life, the views on the values of truth, and what the authors wants to deliver to the readers. According to (PaulEdwards: 1967: 150) a morality contains: (1) beliefs about the nature of the man, (2) belief aboutideals, about what is goodor desirable category. In other value for example, if badminton player want to bechampion, he/she must try hard. It’s a must to be champion, but there is a limitation. Generally, every writer has plenty of imagination stated

Proposing a third term that operates beyond the dichotomy of high culture and mass culture and yet offers a fresh approach to both, these essays address a multitude of different topics that can all be classified as unpopular culture. From David Foster Wallace and Ernest Hemingway to Zane Grey, from Christian rock and country to clack cetal, from Steven Seagal to Genesis (Breyer) P-Orridge, from K-pop to The Real Housewives, from natural disasters to 9/11, from thesis hatements to professional sports, these essays find the unpopular across media and genres, and they analyze the politics and the aesthetics of an unpopular culture (and the unpopular in culture) that has not been duly recognized as such by the theories and methods of cultural studies.
