The main character’s superego is keeping a good people alive. It is a moral principle that reflects to an idealistic standard through the rules of parents and society.

To understand and appreciate a movie, we have to enter the characters’ psychology. But how can we attribute emotions and motivations to characters? How can we realize the causes that lead them to certain behaviours? There is every reason to believe that the same processes that we use to understand real people are used with respect to film characters too. And the movie helps us to make hypotheses and deductions by providing us with clues (dialogues, but also eyeline matches, gestures, face expressions …), which are part of film language itself. Part 2 is also available as a pdf document.

Narcissism is a complicated phenomenon that can be reflected in the narcissist’s language. Investigating narcissism in terms of linguistics, and pragmatics in particular, does not seem to have been given its due attention, as this study reveals. Thus, this study is an endeavor to discover how narcissism is reflected in the American movie Big Eyes (2014). It is known for introducing narcissistic behaviors. This paper aims to identify the types, motivations, and pragmatic manifestations of narcissism in the selected movie. Three pragmatic theories are chosen to scrutinize narcissism in the data: Searle’s speech acts (1969), Grice’s maxims breaching (1975), and Culppeper’s impoliteness (1996).

Pada dasarnya filsafat atau berfilsafat bukanlah sesuatu yang asing dan terlepas dari kehidupan sehari-hari, karena segala sesuatu yang ada dan yang mungkin serta dapat difikirkan bisa menjadi objek filsafat apabila selalu dipertanyakan, difikirkan secara radikal guna mencapai kebenaran. Louis Kattsoff menyebutkan bahwa lapangan kerja filsafat itu bukan main luasnya yaitu meliputi segala pengetahuan manusia serta segala sesuatu yang ingin diketahui manusia. Lebih jauh E.C. Ewing dalam bukunya Fundamental Questions of Philosophy (1962) menyatakan bahwa pertanyaan-pertanyaan pokok filsafat (secara tersirat menunjukan objek filsafat) ialah : Truth (kebenaran), Matter (materi), Mind (pikiran), The Relation of matter and mind (hubungan antara materi dan pikiran), Space and Time (ruang dan waktu), Cause (sebab-sebab), Freedom (kebebasan), Monism versus Pluralism (serba tunggal lawan serba jamak), dan God (Tuhan). Pendapat-pendapat tersebut di atas menggambarkan betapa luas dan mencakupnya objek filsafat baik dilihat dari substansi masalah maupun sudut pandang nya terhadap masalah, sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa objek filsafat adalah segala sesuatu yang maujud dalam sudut pandang dan kajian yang mendalam (radikal). Secara lebih sistematis para akhli membagi objek filsafat ke dalam objek material dan obyek formal. Obyek material adalah objek yang secara wujudnya dapat dijadikan bahan telaahan dalam berfikir. Sedangkan objek yang menyangkut sudut pandang dalam melihat obyek material tertentu adalah obyek formal. Dengan demikian objek material filsafat mengacu pada substansi yang ada dan mungkin ada yang dapat difikirkan oleh manusia, sedangkan objek formal filsafat menggambarkan tentang cara dan sifat berfikir terhadap objek material tersebut, dengan kata lain objek formal filsafat mengacu pada sudut pandang yang digunakan dalam memikirkan objek material filsafat. PENGETAHUAN DAN UKURAN KEBENARAN Defenisi dan Jenis Pengetahuan Burhanudin salam mengemukakan bahwa pengetahuan yang dimiliki manusia ada 4 yaitu : 1 Pengetahuan biasa, yaitu pengetahuan yang dalam filsafat dikatakan dengan istilah common sense, dan sering diartikan sebagai good sense. 2 Pengetahuan ilmu, yaitu ilmu sebagai terjemahan dari science yang diartikan sebagai pengetahuan yang kuantitatif dan objektif. 3 Pengetahuan filsafat, yaitu pengetahuan yang diperoleh dari pemikiran yang bersifat kontemplatif dan spekulatif, pengetahuan filsafat lebih menekankan pada universalitas dan kedalaman kajian tentang sesuatu. 4 Pengetahuan agama, yaitu pengetahuan yang hanya diperoleh dari Tuhan lewat utusannya, pengetahuan agama bersifat mutlak dn wajib diyakini oleh parapemeluk agama. Hakikat Dan Sumber Pengetahuan Ada 2 teori untuk mengetahui hakikat pengetahuan itu yaitu :
