After that, he analyses the characterisation, or “the way the characters are presented ” using Murphy’s theory. He finds that Calixta is described as an active married woman who is pretty, attractive and diligent. Another major character, Alcee, is described as “a man who understands what women need and what women want” Widiantono, 2009:36. Furthermore, Bobinot as the minor character is described as “a responsible husband and full of attention to his child and wife” Widiantono, 2009:39, while Bibi is described as “a little child who looked very wise and cared about his mother” Widiantono, 2009:41. The next theory that Widiantono uses is the theory of setting. Widiantono uses the theory from Kenny as the main theory that to analyse the setting of The Storm. Widiantono analyses the setting of The Storm by dividing the setting into three different types, which are neutral setting; spiritual setting; and setting as dynamic. Another theory that he uses to answer question number two is the theory of plot by Kennedy, Pickering and Hoeper. Using this theory, Widiantono divides the plot of The Storm into five major components, which are exposition; complication; crisis; climax; falling action; and resolution or denouement. These two major theories intend to answer question number two. The last theory that he uses to answer the third question is the Freudian theory about id, ego, and super-ego. He uses the theory to show the change of Calixta’s and Alcee’s attitudes. At first, Calixta is described as a good wife who worries about the condition of her husband and her son, while Alcee is described as a good man who wants to protect Calixta from the storm. However, the storm finally changes their attitudes from the previous good man and woman into an illegal couple by committing adultery. The reason behind their change can be explained by of Freudian theory of id, ego, and superego. The fact that Calixta and Alcee still have passion toward each other as the result of an unfinished love story between them in the past within their unconscious part of mind is the main reason of the adultery. The study conducted by Widiantono uses the same approach as this thesis, which is the psychoanalytic approach. Another similarity is about the way the two researches are conducted. This thesis is conducted by analysing the intrinsic elements of the story, and then moves on to the extrinsic elements. Both Widiantono’s research and this thesis are analyzing the intrinsic elements on the characterization of the characters in the novels. The difference between the study conducted by Widiantono and this thesis lies on the way Widiantono tries to find the significance of story’s setting in helping the characters’ unconscious wills come up. This thesis does not use the significance of setting in its analysis. However, Widiantono prefers to jump to the conclusion than finding the symbol of “the storm” itself in awakening the unconscious part of Alcee a nd Calixta’s minds. Another difference lies on the theory that is being used. Widiantono uses the theory of Freudian about id, ego, and superego. This thesis, however, uses the Freudian theory of feminine Oedipus complex in revealing character development. This thesis avoids using the same theory about id, ego, and
