Abstract
Loss is something that everyone has felt. After someone experiences a loss, they will enter the grieving phase. This grieving process brings a person into a state of depression. This research aims to find out the loss and the grieving or mourning phase experienced by Jack, Abigail, and Lindsey, and also to find out the depression or melancholia experienced by two characters in the novel The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold, namely Jack Salmon and Lindsey Salmon. This study concentrates on one main research question which is how loss, grief, and depression are depicted in Alice Sebold's The Lovely Bones; A Psychological Study.
This research uses the literature research method. Alice Sebold's novel The Lovely Bones is the primary data source in this research, and the secondary sources are previous studies. The researcher uses a psychological approach with Sigmund Freud's Mourning and Melancholia theory to answer this research question. Sigmund Freud's Mourning and Melancholia theory explains that Mourning is a normal response to the loss of a loved one and Melancholia is also a specific type of feeling or can be said to be an emotion. When in a state of Melancholia, the person is in a state of depression.
The results of this study can be concluded that the researcher found loss and sadness experienced by the three characters in the novel The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold, namely Jack, Abigail, and Lindsey, followed by depression experienced by two characters, Jack and Lindsey. This research uses Sigmund Freud's theory of Mourning and Melancholia.
