Abstract

This research was conducted to analyze the Oedipus complex of Eben’s in Eugene O’Neil’s play entitled Desire Under the Elms. To analyze it, the writers use the psychological approach, especially Freud’s psychoanalysis theory. The writers got the main source of the data from the play, while the supporting data, the writers got from literary books, journals of English Literature, and the internet. Data were gathered then they were examined using the descriptive-analytic techniques. The focus of the study was divided into three discussions, namely the factors behind the reasons why Eben had the Oedipus complex, what made him have a rivalry with his own father, and had a forbidden relationship with his stepmother, Abbie. The forbidden relationship between Eben and Abbie is the manifestation of Eben’s Oedipus complex and his way to break his father’s deep heart as his revenge for his mother’s death. The study found out that Eben’s Oedipus complex was influenced more by Eben’s id than his ego and superego.

Abstract

This study focused to analyze the effects of the Great Depression on the main character in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman, especially on how he tried to survive, whether he succeeded or not, and the effects on his life and family. In analyzing the study, the writers used sociological and historical points of view. The writers also used the qualitative method in analyzing this study. Data were collected by doing library research. The main data were derived from the work, while the supporting data were derived from sources such as English literature journals, e-books, and other sources. The collected data were classified and analyzed before they were presented in an article. The writers used sociological and historical approaches to see the social and historical background of the play. From this study, the writers found out that Willy Loman was affected badly by the Great Depression in which he experienced difficulties both in his career as a salesman and in his life. The Great Depression had been his obstacle in gaining his dream of being a successful salesman; and having a happier, fuller, and richer family. His failure brought a serious effect that he liked to withdraw himself from the real world and lived in his illusion. The worst effect was that he could not face reality and committed suicide.
