The Meaning of Joe’s Dual Personality as Seen in Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club. Yogyakarta: English Language Education Study Program, Department of Language and Arts Education, Faculty of Teachers Training and Education, Sanata Dharma University. Novels are works of fiction written in prose. The novelist tells an invented story, offering not merely a representation of reality but also a response to it. Fight Club which was written by Chuck Palahniuk is one of the responses to reality that is currently happening. Basically, the story mainly tells the life of the main character named Joe who has split personality. The objective of the study is to find out the true meaning of Joe’s dual personality. There are two formulated problem questions in this study. They are “How is Joe and his split personality, Tyler Durden described in the novel?” and “What is the meaning of Joe’s dual personality?” This study uses the psychological approach to answer the formulated problems. Besides, the researcher also uses biography of the author and theories which are relevant to the study. There are three conclusions of the study. The first is about the characterization of Joe and Tyler. Joe is drawn as a subservient and fainthearted person, whereas, Tyler is drawn as an independent and fearless person. The second is the surface meaning of the novel which tells that the meaning of Joe’s dual personality is to experience freedom. Meanwhile, the deeper meaning of the novel shows that the meaning of Joe’s dual personality is to have a meaningful life.

The Meaning of Joe’s Dual Personality as Seen in Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club. Yogyakarta: Program Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris, Jurusan Pendidikan Bahasa dan Seni, Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan, Universitas Sanata Dharma. Novel merupakan sebuah karya fiksi yang ditulis dalam bentuk prosa. Seorang novelis menceritakan kisah yang dijumpai, tidak hanya memaparkan suatu realita tetapi juga respon terhadapnya. Fight Club yang ditulis oleh Chuck Palahniuk merupakan salah satu respon terhadap realitas yang sedang terjadi. Cerita pada Fight Club umumnya menceritakan seorang tokoh utama bernama Joe yang memiliki dua kepribadian. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui makna sebenarnya dari kepribadian ganda yang dimiliki oleh Joe. Terdapat dua masalah yang dirumuskan dalam penelitian ini. Masalah tersebut yaitu “Bagaimana Joe dan kepribadian lainnya, Tyler Durden dideskripsikan dalam novel?” dan “Apa makna dari kepribadian ganda Joe?” Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan psikologis untuk menjawab masalah yang dirumuskan. Selain itu, peneliti juga menggunakan biografi penulis dan teori-teori yang relevan terhadap penelitian. Ada tiga kesimpulan dari penelitian ini. Yang pertama adalah penokohan Joe dan Tyler. Joe digambarkan sebagai seorang yang tunduk dan penakut, sedangkan Tyler digambarkan sebagai seorang yang mandiri dan tak kenal takut. Yang kedua adalah makna tertulis dari novel yang menceritakan bahwa makna kepribadian ganda Joe adalah untuk memperoleh kebebasan. Sedangkan, makna tersirat dalam novel ini menunjukkan bahwa Joe ingin memiliki suatu kehidupan yang berarti.
