RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

3.2 Approach
In this research, it is important to know what approach the researcher used. It
represents the researchs view towards the literary works. According to Eliot (in
Kennedy: 1983), there are four approaches which are usually used in analyzing
literary work: mimetic, pragmatic, expressive and objective.
1. Mimetic Approach views literary works as imitation, or reflection, or
representation of the world or human life, and criterion applied to a work is
the truth of its representation to the object matter that it represents or should
be represented.
2. Pragmatic Approach views the literary works as something which is
constructed in order to achieve certain effect of the audience such as
instruction, aesthetic, pleasure, emotion and it tends to judge the value of the
work according to its success in achieving that aim.
3. Expressive Approach views a work of literature that expresses the feelings of
the person who wrote it. Therefore, to study it, the researcher has to learn
more about the authors life.
4. Objective Approach views a story, a poem, a play or novel to be an individual
entity, existing on the page that can be read and understood in its own right,
without a necessary studying the authors life or the age in which it is written
or its possible effects on the reader.
The approach used by the researcher is objective approach, because the
researcher does not study anything related to the authors life. The researcher only
focuses on analyzing Ranchos, Farhans and Rajus motivation to reach the goals in
Rajkumar Hirani film 3 Idiots.
