Abstract

This study aims to analyze Jim’s pursuit of happiness in Into the Magic Shop. The study focuses on how Jim seeks happiness through emotional healing, personal growth, and self-awareness after experiencing a painful childhood filled with poor conditions, family conflict, emotional neglect, and insecurity. These difficult experiences shape Jim’s personality and motivate him to seek happiness, emotional fulfillment, and inner peace. A psychological approach based on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs is used in this study to examine how Jim fulfills his physiological needs, safety needs, love and belonging needs, and esteem needs throughout his life journey. This study employs a qualitative-descriptive method by analyzing dialogues, narrative descriptions, and significant events in the novel through close reading. The discussion shows that Jim's motivation to seek happiness comes from his difficult childhood experiences. Growing up in a poor family, facing emotional neglect, family conflict, and insecurity, many of his basic needs went unmet. These conditions drive him to search for safety, acceptance, self-worth, and a better future. The analysis also reveals that Jim pursues happiness through several stages of personal growth. His emotional change starts when he meets Ruth, who teaches him meditation, breathing techniques, and emotional self-control. These practices help him find inner peace and emotional stability. Furthermore, Jim grows personally by learning self-compassion, empathy, and positive ways to respond to life’s challenges. His self-awareness grows as he recognizes his potential, pursues his dream of becoming a doctor, and reflects on the meaning of success. The findings indicate that Jim finally realizes that happiness is not achieved through wealth, status, or material success alone, but through inner peace, meaningful relationships, empathy, generosity, and contributing to the well-being of others.

Abstract

This study is entitled “Gaspery-Jacques Roberts’ Anxiety in Emily St. John Mandel’s Sea of Tranquility”. The objective of this research is to examine the anxiety experienced by Gaspery-Jacques Roberts, the main character of the novel. It uses a qualitative descriptive method and a psychological approach to literature, applying Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic theory as the framework. This study aims to identify the causes of Gaspery’s anxiety, examine its effects on his character development, and portray how he copes with it throughout the story. The results show that Gaspery’s anxiety is caused by helplessness over the loss of his mother and his failed marriage, the danger-situation of investigating a reality-threatening anomaly, the loss of important people such as Talia, and the ego’s fear of the super-ego produced by breaking the protocol of the Time Institute. These causes affect his feeling, thinking, and acting, moving him from emotional numbness toward calmness and longing for connection, from panic toward moral clarity and philosophical acceptance, and from passive withdrawal toward decisive action. There are several ways Gaspery copes with his anxiety, namely avoidance, reasoning, action, and acceptance. From the results of this study, the findings indicate that Gaspery successfully transforms the anxiety that has shaped his life into a force that leads him toward moral growth, culminating in his quiet acceptance of both his choices and the uncertain nature of his reality.
