%T MYTH, FICTION AND DISPLACEMENT ON NORTHROP FRYE
%X The purpose of this study was to examine Northrop Frye‟s way of looking literature
through his four essays. His approach are designed in the spesific essays; First,
Theory of modes, Second, Ethical Criticism: Theory of Symbol, Third, Archetypal
Criticism: Theory of Myth, Fourth, Rhetorical Criticism: Theory of Genres. The finding
showed that every work of art can be categorized as fiction in Frye‟s literary criticism
theory. In other word, fiction is an artistic strategy to tell idea by deceiving a story.
Meanwhile, the relation between myth and literature is established by studying genres
and conventions of literature. In addition, the displacement meant as a technique to
make sure that reader of myth and fiction will get the true message of the story. In
other word the displacement will really occurs when the reader can find the complete
fiction rather than a partial ideology. We hope that the finding will provide valuable
insight to the reader to internalizes the literary traditions of comedy, romance, tragedy,
and satire so thoroughly that they can be brought to bear concurrently upon whatever
text he reads.
