Abstract

Having to interact with crime fiction which presumably is considered as ephemeral literature, cannot be an excuse to dissolve the theme of justice inside the plots. Agatha Christie as the Mistress of Complication and Mystery, has written series of murder and mystery fiction since the beginning of twentieth century. And Then There Were None or entitled Ten Little Niggers, one of her masterpieces depicts Christie’s unique disposition of turning perception from ‘detective as criminal solver’ into ‘murderer as justice protector’. This paper seeks to analyze how justice is portrayed and challenged by looking at the characters created by Christie as well as making a more thorough analysis of the symbols and dialogues. The result of this paper portrays that the idea of justice, just like human beings, can be flawed or misinterpreted even by the so- called a man in the court.

Abstract

This study aims to find out the analysis of the types of expressive speech acts and the most dominant expressive speech acts used by characters in literary works. Qualitative methods were used to fulfill two research objectives. The data was collected from the movie that was taken from the utterances used by the characters. It was observed, selected, and classified. The researcher took notes as a tool to classify the expressive acts of the characters in the movie. The results showed that nine kinds of expressive expressions were found in the movie, namely apologizing, blaming, congratulating, doubting, greeting, praising, regretting, thanking, and wishing. The most dominant type of expressive action used is the praising act because the character performs this action when he admires someone or an object for the listener. In addition, giving praise to others can make others more motivated; giving praise has a calming effect and makes others feel valued, and increases the listener's confidence. It is expected that the result of this study can be used as references for future research.
