This study aims to describe the symptoms and causes of Alicia Berenson, who experienced Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). In this study, the writer applies a theory of the psychology of literature by Wellek and Warren and the theory of PTSD by Carlson & Ruzek. This study uses a psychological approach. The method used is descriptive qualitative. There are several PTSD symptoms found in Alicia’s characters, i.e., reliving the trauma through flashbacks, negative self-view, aggressive behavior toward oneself or others, impulsive behavior, social isolation, emotional regulation, and relationship difficulty.

Abstract

This research delves into the anxiety experience of Cath, the central protagonist in Rainbow Rowell’s novel “Fangirl.” The study addresses to investigate three key issues: the symptoms of Cath’s anxiety, its underlying causes, and its effects. Drawing from Sigmund Freud’s literary psychology theory, this qualitative research aims to explore Cath’s anxiety journey. The primary source of information is the novel “Fangirl” itself. Employing techniques such as textual analysis, note-taking, keyword identification, and data collection. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of Cath’s psychological landscape. The research reveals that Cath encounters two prominent anxiety symptoms. Firstly, she experiences panic disorder upon her initial move to the hostel, where she encounters a male student in what should be an exclusively female dormitory. Secondly, stress disorder emerges as a result of her twin sister’s renewed connection with their mother, prompting Cath to confront her past. Cath’s anxiety roots itself in familial circumstances, encompassing her parents’ divorce, her father’s illness, and the strained relationship with her twin sister, Wren. This familial dynamic contributes to Cath’s dependency and introverted tendencies. The implications of Cath’s anxiety are far-reaching. The negative impact of her anxiety is manifested in her reliance on her twin sister, hindering her personal growth and self-reliance. By applying Sigmund Freud’s literary psychology theory, the research provides insights into the symptoms, causes, and effects of Cath’s anxiety. This analysis underscores the significance of understanding literary characters’ psychological experiences and their broader implications for personal growth and relationships.

Abstract

This study discusses the characteristics of parody in Prejudiced by Authorinfires as a fanfiction reinterpretation of classic novel Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. Using Linda Hutcheon's theory of parody, this research aims to identify how elements of parody are presented in the text along with critical differences. This study uses a qualitative method with an intrinsic approach, and analyzes the text based on Hutcheon's four main characteristics of parody, namely repetition with critical difference, intertextuality, two-level structure, and critical and interpretive functions. The results show that Prejudiced contains all four characteristics, especially through gender reversal, narrative transformation, and direct quotes from Pride and Prejudice that are reworked. Characters such as Ezra Bennet and Anne Darcy become parodies of the characters in Pride and Prejudice, but with new perspectives that reflect current social issues and power dynamics. Through its dual structure and deliberate ironic distance, Prejudiced functions not only as entertainment, but also as a contextualized and reflective social critique of the classic novel.
