ABSTRAK
Sastra merupakan suatu bentuk karya seni yang menggambarkan kehidupan
manusia. Novel adalah salah satu dari karya seni tersebut. Di dalam novel penulis
dapat menceritakan sesuatu yang berbeda dan lain. Pada kali ini penulis akan
membahas hal yang berkaitan dengan karakter. Karakter merupakan unsur yang
paling menarik perhatian dalam sebuah novel. Keunikan karakter dalam sebuah
novel selalu membuat masyarakat berhasrat ingin mengetahui seperti apa
sosoknya yang sebenarnya. Karakter dalam novel memberikan sudut pandang
yang lain terhadap sesuatu yang berkaitan dengan kehidupan manusia, yaitu sudut
pandang sastra terhadap sesuatu. Oleh karena itu, penulis memutuskan untuk
memilih judul “The Description of Main Characters in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s
Novel “The Hound of The Baskervilles”.” Penulis akan mendeskripsikan
perwatakan dari para karakter utama dalam karya sastra tersebut. Maka dari itu
penulis menerima kritikan dan masukan terhadap karya tulis ini agar lebih
