C. Theoretical Framework
The writer takes some theories to answer the problems proposed in the problem formulation. There are some theories on character and characterization,
relation between literature and psychology, theory of personality, theory of motivation and theory of loneliness.
Since the writer takes a novel as the subject of thesis and the discussion is related to the main character’s psychology, relation between literature and
psychology is needed. The first analysis is Mizoguchi’s characteristics. He is the main character of this novel and plays an important contribution to the story, so this
study will remain on the main character. Therefore, the writer applied the theories of character and characterization. The theories are used to understand the characteristics
of Mizoguchi. This study learns the characterization and characteristics of the main character by examining his dialogues, actions, and other character’s opinion about the
main character. This study discusses the effect of failures to get the belongingness and love
needs. Therefore, the writer applies some theories on human psychology. The writer will use theory of motivation and loneliness as the guidance to examine Mizoguchi’s
needs. The last is looking for the effect of the failures toward Mizoguchi’s life. Here, the writer uses the theory of personality and also the same theories with the theories
in the second problem formulation. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
