Abstract

Psychological problems in a person can be formed by many factors, including childhood and environmental experiences. Two of the many forms of psychological problems are anxiety and obsessive disorder. This research focuses to analyze the symptoms and effects of anxiety and obsessive disorders suffered by two main characters in Into the Water by Paula Hawkins using the theory of psychoanalysis. This research applies observation techniques in collecting the data from Into the Water novel. The result shows that both main characters experienced different symptoms that affected the way they live their lives. The anxiety in the first main character made it hard for him to differentiate the reality and myth. The obsession in the second main character made her became an intrusive person that interfered with other people’s private problems. This novel contains an ideology that a person may not seem as what he/she really is, as he/she might keep a secret that not everyone knows about.

Abstract

This study examines how the film The Woman King constructs gynocentric discourse through cinematic narrative strategies. While contemporary cinema increasingly features strong female protagonists, the research gap lies in understanding how historical narratives are selectively reconstructed to naturalize contemporary ideologies of female supremacy. Using John Fiske's three-level semiotic framework (reality, representation, and ideology), this qualitative analysis examines character construction, narrative patterns, and visual representations in the film. Findings reveal that the film employs ideological techniques including historical transfer, selective framing, and testimonial to establish female dominance across physical, intellectual, and moral domains. Critically, the study identifies significant ideological ambivalence: despite systematically constructing narratives of female superiority, the film paradoxically requires patriarchal validation for female achievements, exemplified in the kpojito title conferment scene. This reveals that contemporary gender representation involves complex negotiations between progressive aspirations and persistent androcentric frameworks. The research contributes theoretical insights into how semiotic analysis can expose ideological contradictions within ostensibly progressive media content.
