Teabing. I need his help. My master is sleeping. As was I. What is your business with
him? It is a private matter. One of great interest to him.
Then Im sure he will be pleased to receive you in the morning.
Langdon shifted his weight. Its quite important. As is Sir Leighs sleep. If you are a friend, then you are aware
he is in poor health.
Brown, 2003: 220-221 It is in the morning of April, when Neveu and Langdon arrive in
Westminster Abbey. The weather is not good too. It is raining in the outside. No crowds are visiting alcove. All they can see only silent corridor. It can be seen
from quotation below: Today was a rainy April morning. Rather than crowds and
shimmering stained glass, all Langdon saw was acres of desolate floor and shadowy, empty alcoves.
Brown, 2003: 396 Evening has come when Neveu and Langdon arrive in Rosslyn Chapel.
The spires long shadow of Rosslyn Chapel greets them. It is stated by following quotation:
Rosslyns rugged spires were casting long evening shadows as Robert Langdon and Sophie Neveu pulled their rental car into
the grassy parking area at the foot of the bluff on which the chapel stood.

4.3.3. Setting of Social
Setting of social refers to the background of character in a fiction. It tells how the character raised up and which environment they live on. It can be divided
into three classes; they are low class, middle class, and upper class.
Neveu,s family consists of her father, mother, brother, grandfather, and grandmother. But one day, an accident took them all from Neveu when they were
travelling. It was a car accident that happened when Sophie Neveu was only four years old. There is only Neveu and her grandfather who survive from that
accident. It can be seen from the following quotation: Sophie suddenly could hear her own heart. My family? Sophies
parents had died when she was only four. Their car went off a bridge into fast-moving water. Her grandmother and younger
brother had also been in the car, and Sophies entire family had been erased in an instant. She had a box of newspaper
clippings to confirm it.
Brown, 2003: 76 Neveu’s grandparents are the curator of Louvre Museum and Rosslyn
Chapel. Jacques Sauniere is the curator of Louvre Museum, the most famous art museum in the world, for twenty years. He has completed Louvre Museum by a
mass collection of goddess art. It is because his passion in goddess. While her grandmother, Marie Chauvel, is the curator of Rosslyn Chapel and also as the
head of Rosslyn Trust. She lives in the chapel rectory near the Rosslyn Chapel. It can be seen from the following quotation:
Langdon sensed Fache did not see at all. Jacques Saunière was considered the premiere goddess iconographer on earth. Not
only did Saunière have a personal passion for relics relating to fertility, goddess cults, Wicca, and the sacred feminine, but
during his twenty-year tenure as curator, Saunière had helped the Louvre amass the largest collection of goddess art on
earth… Brown, 2003: 23
He nodded, also looking puzzled that Sophie was going down there. Thats the chapel rectory. The chapel curator lives there.
She also happens to be the head of the Rosslyn Trust. He paused. And my grandmother.
