2.2.1. Elements of Novel

Novel has two elements; there are intrinsic and extrinsic elements. The writer will explain about those elements.

1. Intrinsic elements

An Intrinsic element is a builder element of literature that can be found in the literary text itself. There are intrinsic elements in novel. There are: 1. Theme Idea, an idea, or main idea underlying a literary work is called theme. Or, the theme is something on which to base a story, something that animates the story, or something that is the main problem in the story. Theme is the soul of the whole story. Therefore, the theme became the basis of the development of the 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 12 whole story. Theme in many ways is binding the presence or absence of events, conflicts and circumstances, including the various other intrinsic elements. 2. Plot Plot is a series of events in the novel. Plot is divided into 2 parts; the plot forward progressive is if the event is gradually moving towards the chronological order of the story line. While the backward flow flash back progressive is going to do with the ongoing events Paul Tukan, S.Pd. 3. Character Character is an actor who takes on events so that the event can be a story; Character is the figure contained in the literature that has personality, values, moral and mental. Character in a story should be described clearly. So what is people says, what is people do, what people thinks, and what is perceived must be truly describing the nature of the characters. The main characters in the novel Lolita are as follows:  Humbert Humbert: He is white, handsome, educated man but Humbert has a pedophile character, nomad, and tend to schizophrenia and paranoia too.  Lolita: she is a young girl, beautiful, childishness and innocent. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 13 4. Point of View Point of View is the narrative point of view, how the story is told more specifically, who tells it. There are two distinctly different types of point of view and each of those two types has two variations. o In the First Person point of view, the story is told by a character within the story, a character using the first person pronoun, I . If the narrator is the main character, the point of view is first person protagonist. If the narrator is a secondary character, the point of view is first person observer. o In the Third Person point of view, the story is not told by a character but by an invisible author, using the third person pronoun he, she, or it to tell the story. If the third person narrator gives us the thoughts of characters then he is a third person omniscient all knowing narrator. If the third person narrator only gives us information which could be recorded by a camera and microphone no thoughts, then he is a third person dramatic narrator. 5. Setting Setting is the natural, manufactured, political, cultural and temporal environment, including everything that characters know and own. The depiction in the background there is a detailed story, some are not. Settings are the same as described in fact, some are a combination of reality with fantasy. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 14 o Setting of Place Setting of place directs to the location where the events happened in a fiction. The use of this setting with certain name should reflect geographical. The setting of place in a novel usually consists of several locations, and it will move from one place to another because there is a development of plot and character. o Setting of Time Setting of time related to the matter of when the events happened in a fiction. The matter of when is usually connected with historical events. The setting cannot be separated from the place because it is to relate each other. o Setting of Society Social setting directs to the matters that are related to the behavior of social life in certain time of a novel. It can be habits, tradition, religion, ideology, the way of thinking, etc. this setting is part of the whole setting because there is a unity with another setting, such place and time. As for the setting in this novel the narrator, Humbert, moves from Paris to New York shortly after World War 2 1947. They travel around from state to state staying in various motels. This thesis focuses on three intrinsic elements; there are character, setting and plot. Plot is a reflection of behavior or way the characters act, think, and behaves in dealing with the problems of life Nurgyantoro, 2009: 114. Background is a concrete 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 15 footing on the place and time of occurrence of the events experienced by the characters. And from Characters will know a character may be defined as a verbal representation of human being which builds a novel. Through an analysis of the plot, setting, character, and point of view will reveal the underlying theme of a story.

2. Extrinsic Element

Extrinsic elements in the novel are the elements that are beyond the novel. But it does not directly affect the system organisms literature. More specifically, the extrinsic elements in a novel can be regarded as an element build a novel. According to Wellek and Warren 1977, extrinsic element is also known as extrinsic factors influencing literary works. It usually becomes a causal explanation for some descriptions, analysis, and evaluation of a literary work. Therefore, extrinsic elements novel remains to be seen as something that important. Extrinsic factors are the literary elementsfactors which are found outside the literary works but it indirectly influences the structure of the literary works. Extrinsic approach is used by critics to emphasize the importance of the context to the text. It is focused on the background, history, social conditions and biography of the author and the values in the story. Sometimes, it connects literature to the social context and psychology as well. The values in the story in a literary work embodied the values inserted by author. The values include: o Moral values are the values in the story that relates to the character temperament or ethics. Moral values in the story could be good moral values; moral values can also be bad ugly. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 16 o Cultural values, namely the concept of basic problem is very important and the value of human life Eg, customs, arts, beliefs, ceremonies o Social values, the things that related to norms in public life Eg, mutual giving, helping, and tolerance o Aesthetic values, values related to art, beauty in the literature about language, plot, theme This extrinsic element focuses on the values of the story uses philosophy moral teory. A study on the value of a study is important given its position as the initial problem in moral philosophy. In addition, a study of the value study touched substantial issues in moral philosophy. The question always comes in this study, whether the so- called good and bad. Ideal moral behavior in the eyes of Immanuel Kant was born and moral behavior will emerge from the insistence that human beings as rational beings and understanding, so that every moral behavior does actually born of itself is not from outside himself. Moral or immoral behavior has actually been present and can be controlled at the stage idea. The influence of the strong sense of lust or influence in causing real action. When lust is more powerful effect it would appear otherwise immoral behavior moral behavior would appear reasonable if the effect is stronger than lust. Based on the opinion of Immanuel Kant can be said that a persons moral behavior is born and will appear on the insistence of a man as intelligent and virtuous beings to achieve happiness. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 17 2.3. Moral,Value, and Moral Value 2.3.1. Moral Generally speaking, morality is what drives our decision about what is good and what is bad. In Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia it is said moral is deciding good or bad considered behavior. Morality according to Bentham is art to maximize happiness; it can be seen by achieving the existence of happy and joyful life of all people. A morality is sacrifice from little goodness to big goodness. Hazlitt, 2003: 111. According to Stemberg 1994:938, morality refers to concern with what is good or right in people s relationships each other. A key to understanding morality is to be specific about definition of good or bad and right or wrong According to Immanuel Kant Magnis Suseno:1992 Morality is the assurance and inner attitude and is not merely an adjustment to the rules of the outside, whether its state law, religion or customs. Immanuel Kant, saying that morality concerning good and bad things, it means that what is good in yourself, good on any restrictions at all. It is further said that, the quality of ones moral criterion is loyalty itself. Morality is the implementation of the obligations of respect for the law, while the law itself is written in the human heart. In other words, morality is determined to follow what the heart is recognized as an absolute obligation. Moral goodness is good in all respects, without restrictions, so it is good not only from some aspects, but either or both just absolute. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 18 A morality contains 1 beliefs about the nature of the man, 2 belief about ideals, about what is good or desirable or worthy or pursuit for its own sake, 3 rules laying down what ought to be done and 4 motives that incline us to choose the right or the wrong course. We learn as children that we should be unselfish, that we should not tell lies. Paul Edwards: 1967: 150.

2.3.2. Value

The term values may suggest that judgments of right and wrong, lofty and base, just and unjust, and more personal preferences, that thing are useful as individuals happen to value them. Benninga: 1991: 131. Value is something that interest for us, something that we look for, something that pleases, something that loved, and in short value is something good. Value have good connotation. Bertens: 2000: 139.

2.3.3. Moral Value

Moral value is a reality that is hidden behind other realities. Judging means to judge a human activity to connect something with something else then for the next decision is made. Rooted in moral values that serve to encourage and direct motivator attitudes and human behavior. Value as a system is one manifestation of culture in addition to the social system and work. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 19 Then, there are four characteristic of moral value. There are as following: a. Moral value is related with responsibility Moral value is related with human personality, but beside moral value we also automatically can say other values. Moral value makes people wrong or not, because heshe has responsibility. Especially moral value is related with human personality of responsibility. Moral value just can be real in action wholly if it became responsibility of the involved person. b. Moral value is related with pure heart All values need to make it real. Because it has persuasive power, it should be practice. For example, aesthetic value, it should be practiced, play music composition or others. To make moral value to be real, it can be appealed from pure heart. One of special characteristics of moral values is this value will effect voice of pure heart to accuse us if oppose moral value and praise us if make moral value. c. Obligation Moral value obligates us absolutely and it can t be compromised. Other values need to be real and admitted, for example, aesthetic value. Educative and cultural person will admit and enjoying aesthetic value. But in different people can t we blame. Moral value obligates us as such, without requirement. For example, honesty orders us to return thing that borrowed, like or not, because moral value contains an imperative category. In other value for example, if badminton player want to be champion, heshe must try hard. It s a must to be champion, but there is a limitation. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 20 d. Formality Moral value is not stand-alone without other value. Although moral value is top value that we must appreciate, but it is not in top without other value. Moral values did not separate with other values. For example, a seller applies moral values all at once with apply economic values. Moral values are nothing without other values. It is form of formality. Bertens, 2000:143-147. Many spiritual values or we can mention with moral values that can be learned by all people. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 21 CHAPTER 3 METHOD OF RESEARCH

3.1 Research Design

In analyzing the data, the writer uses a qualitative descriptive method. Qualitative research methods were developed in the social sciences to enabled research to study social and cultural phenomena Myers, 1977. Qualitative research is an inductive approach, and its goal is to gain a deeper understanding of a person s or group experiences, This methodology as a qualitative research procedure that produces descriptive data in the form of written words or spoken of the people and the observed behavior. This thesis focuses its analysis of moral values through the main character that has relation to the society life, so in analyzing this thesis the writer uses intrinsic and extrinsic approach. Intrinsic approach is the study of the novel within the range of the intrinsic elements of the novel itself. In this case focuses in one of intrinsic element that is main character in this novel, this thesis also discuss other intrinsic elements like plot and setting which is build the story. This thesis not discuss about character but it focuses about moral values through the main character and moral values is not belongs to intrinsic element of the novel, so it uses other approach there is extrinsic approach in order to analyze moral values. The moral values are based on the condition of the society. 8QLYHUVLWDV6 XPDWHUD8WDUD 22
