| dc.description.abstract | Literature is a written material, which has close relationship with human
experiences, thoughts, ideas, feelings, and imaginations. Literature is divided into
three forms: fiction, poetry and drama. Novel, as a kind of fiction, is an invented
story in prose, long enough to fill a complete book (Hornby, 1995:792).
Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince is J. K. Rowling’s sixth novel in her
Harry Potter series. Harry Potter is the main character of the novel. He experiences
various conflicts concerning his role as a student, a friend, as an adolescent boy and
so on.
Harry’s physical, social, and psychological conflicts are chosen as the topic of
discussion in this thesis because they can be found throughout the story. The
discussion will focus on Harry’s conflicts during his lifetime in Hogwarts School of
Witchcraft and Wizardry. The goal of writing this thesis is to give information about
Harry’s conflicts in the novel and how he faces and overcomes them. The method to
use in analyzing the topic is the inductive method. | en_US |
