Abstract

The practice of living together without marriage is common in some communities. Marriage serves to legalize the relationship between men and women, allowing them to share a home legally. The term "cohabitation" refers to couples who live together without being married. However, cohabitation can lead to various issues, including infidelity, conflicts, and even dangerous situations. This study employs a descriptive analysis method, utilizing library research techniques grounded in Sigmund Freud's developmental theory (psychoanalysis). In the novel The Silent Wife by A.S.A. Harrison, the consequences of cohabitation manifest as infidelity, disputes among characters, and the deterioration of friendships, ultimately leading to murder. Analyzing the novel through intrinsic and extrinsic approaches reveals that the events affecting the character Todd Gilbert directly result from cohabitation. This situation leads to the development of a new self-concept for Todd and significantly influences his attitude in addressing both internal and external conflicts.

Abstract

This research examines the depiction of key archetypal figures from Norse mythology in Neil Gaiman’s Norse Mythology, utilizing Carl Gustav Jung’s analytical psychology as the theoretical framework. The analysis focuses on three central characters: Odin, Thor, and Loki, interpreted as representations of the archetypes: The Wise Old Man, The Hero, and The Trickster. The study employs a qualitative descriptive method and interpretative content analysis. The findings indicate that the novel reconfigures their symbolic meanings within a narrative structure that reflects the psychological dynamics of contemporary individuals. Odin is presented as a contemplative spiritual leader, Thor as a hero who transforms failure through introspection, and Loki as the embodiment of creative chaos. Through this archetypal lens, the novel effectively conveys the structure of the human unconscious collective. This research concludes that Norse mythology serves as a bridge, linking the symbolic legacy of the past with modern narratives and contemporary existential exploration.
