This research tries to find the motives beyond the adaptation of Harry Potter
and the Half Blood Prince novel. The first step is to compare the differences between
the novel and its film adaptation. Thus, it is necessary to use comparative method.
The application of the method in this thesis starts by comparing the novel and its film
adaptation in order to find the different representation from both of them. The prime
data come from the information about the meaning of life that is represented in the
novel and its film adaptation, the information about Harry Potter and the Half Blood
Prince novel and film, and the changes that has been made during the process of
adaptation. The secondary data come from the data that support the information about
the meaning of life in the novel and its film adaptation, adaptation journals, essays,
articles, or any other texts that support the analysis. The data are analyzed by the
theory of adaptation and supported by myth analysis in order to help in finding the
ideology that lead us to find the motive beyond the adapted film.
The results of the research show that, there are some differences during the
process of transformation. Film production team make some changes on the setting
when the bridge collapsed, added some character on the muggle world, the plot of
Voldemort’s past time has been condensed and extracted, and the way of presenting
love has been changed. These changes as the consequences of the different media
from both of them. According to myth analysis, this research also find the different
ideologies between the novel and its film adaptation. In a form of novel the ideology
mostly about feudalism, while the ideology of film mostly about capitalism. Thus, it
is related to the economic lures and cultural capital motive | en_US |
