INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background of Study
Literature is written expression that contains imaginative work. According to Eagleton, literature is an imaginative fiction or just a fact (Eagleton 2). It means, literature is an imaginative creation that is created from the imagination or from real life of author. Further, literature can be translated as works of proses narrative. Wellek states that literature can be interpreted as a narrative prose that is imaginative, but usually sensible and contains a truth that dramatizes the relationship between human relations (Wellek 2). It means literature can be defined as imaginative writing in the sense of fiction writing.
There are many kinds of literary works. One of literary works is a novel. According to Eagleton, novel is a piece of prose fiction of a reasonable length (1). It means, novel is a long narrative that is created from people’s imagination which describes the real life. In this research, the writer uses Harry potter and the Prisoner of Azkabannovel as an object to be studied.

CHAPTER II
LITERARY REVIEW
As the writer explains in the previous chapter that the writer analyzes
this thesis uses type plot and Moral Value. Therefore, the writer explains Plot and
Moral value before the writer analyzes the data.
2.1 Formalism
This thesis uses theory of Formalism. Formalism stresses the analysis of the
literary work as a self-sufficient verbal entity, constituted by internal relations and
independent of reference either to the state of mind of the author or to the actualities
of the “external” world (Abrams 128). It means that focus to our attention on the
literary work as the sole source of evidence for interpreting it.
Formalism concerns in structure, shape, and technique of literary work.
Structurally, literary work have fictional device that include in there. The fictional
device means theme, plot, point of view, setting, moral value, and character (Gillespie
190). It means that plot and moral value that the writer uses in this thesis includes in
fictional device of formalism. The explanation of plot and moral value will be
described below.
While this movement seemed to make aesthetic judgment and accepted part of
academic literary study for the first time, the practice that followed from the triumph
A p r i a n t o| 7
aesthetic judgment. It was, in fact, typically devoted to interpretation of texts that
were already regarded as having formal excellence, and such interpretation tended to
emphasize the moral value of the work being read. (Michael barble 109).
2.1.1 Plot
E.M. Forster in his book Aspect of The Novel (E.M Foster 93) quoted
Aristotle’s plot theory says that plot is confronted not only by “human beings more
or less cut to its requirements”, but, rather, “finds them enormous, shadowy, and
intractable, and three-quarters hidden like an iceberg. It attempts to persuade these
“unwieldy creatures” of the “advantages of the triples process of complication, crisis,
and solution. (E.M. Forster 93) says that plot from story by defining the former as a
narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. ‘The king died and then the
queen died,’ is a story. ‘The king died and then the queen died of grief’ is a plot. The
time-sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it. Another kind
of plot according to E.M. Forster (E.M Foster 94) ‘The queen died, no one knew why,
until it was discovered that it was through grief at the death of king.’ This is a plot
with a mystery in it, a form capable of high development. It suspends the
time-sequence, it moves as far away from the story as its limitations allow. In the case of
the story, we say ‘and then? While in the case of the plot, we ask ‘why? The
fundamental difference between “these two aspects of the novel” is that story “can
only supply curiosity”, whereas plot “demands intelligence and memory also”. In
A p r i a n t o| 8
between them. This allows the novelist to delay explanations and introduce human
mystery to the narrative.
(Gwynn 7) stated that in the Poetics, Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) gives first
importance to plot as an element of a play, and most readers would agree that it holds
a similar position in a work of fiction. Indeed, if we tell a friend about a short story
we have enjoyed, we will probably give a synopsis or brief summary of its incidents.
Plot may be defined as a story’s sequence of incidents, arranged in dramatic order.
One is tempted to insert the word “chronological,” but doing so would exclude many
stories that depart from this strict ordering of events. Plot develops a series of
complications or intensification of the conflict that leads to a moment of great
tension. Author uses techniques in writing plot to make the story interesting or to add
a twist and turn. There are four types regarding to plot:
1. Suspense - Frequently involves dilemma, for instance: Caught in a bad
situation with a choice in a boating accident, you can save either your mother
or your husband form drowning. It means that suspense is a feeling of
anxiety or anticipation. In literature, authors use that anxiety to make readers
concerned about characters with whom they have formed sympathetic
attachments.
2. Flashback - The author waits until the story is moving and then flashes back
to reveal biographical data or deep psychological reasons why a character
acts as s/he does. It focuses more on why things happen, rather than on what
A p r i a n t o| 9
background information in the present events of their story. They interrupt a
specific event within their story by using events that have already occurred or
that have not been presented.
3. Telescoping - It’s a matter of economy. The author cannot describe every
motion of the character or event during the time the story covers. S/he has to
choose the significant and merely suggest the others by saying they
happened, without much description.
4. Foreshadowing - The outcome of a conflict is often hinted at or
foreshadowed before the climax and dénouement. These clues are usually
very subtle which remain foreshadowed until the story ends.
Plot refers to the series of events that give a story its meaning and effect. In
most stories, these events arise out of conflict experienced by the main character. The
conflict may come from something external. As the character makes choices and tries
to resolve the problem, the story’s action is shaped and plot is generated. In some
stories, the author structures the entire plot chronologically, with the first event
followed by the second, third, and so on, like beads on string. However, many stories
are told with flashback techniques in which plot events from earlier times interrupt
the story’s current events.
To be a plot, the events must be processed and made creatively so that the
results of processing and making itself is something beautiful and interesting,
A p r i a n t o| 10
2.1.1.1 Element of Plot
When we talk about plot, it means that we talk about the actions or events
which usually resolved at the end of the story. According to Kenny. in Wiyatmi says
that the plot as the events are displayed in a not simple story, because the author sets
the events was based on a causal connection. (Wiyatmi 37)
The plot is basically sequences of events in logical and chronological relations
are interrelated and are caused or experienced by the characters. The plot outline is
divided into three parts, namely early, middle, and end. The first part contains the
exposition that contains instability and conflicts. The middle part contains the climax
which is the height of the conflict. The final section contains troubleshooting.
Plot is known for having a narrative structure and is divided into five parts.
The five parts are: exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and dénouement.
2.1.1.1.1 Exposition
Exposition is the beginning part of a story. It introduces the main characters in
the story. (Gwynn 8) says that exposition provides the reader with essential
information—who, what, when, where—he or she needs to know before continuing.
The exposition shows how the characters are related to each other, who the central
A p r i a n t o| 11
Exposition in a story usually describes a stable situation, even if it is not an
entirely happy one. It provides enough interest and information to encourage readers
to continue reading the book.
2.1.1.1.2 Complication
The next step of plot is complication. Complication introduces the conflict or
problem in the story. The protagonist starts to reveal some of their problems and
goals. This part also reveals the events where it becomes complicated and the conflict
raised. The complication includes the appearance of some circumstance or event that
shakes up the stable situation and begins the rising action of the story.
According to Gwynn complication in a story may be either external or
internal, or a combination of the two. However, the complication is also the body of a
story; it comprises a number of scenes containing action and dialogue. It builds some
crisis moments, but the dénouement of the complication seems at hand but quickly
disappears. (Gwynn 9)
A p r i a n t o| 12
Climax is the critical point at which the central character is about to win or
lose all. It features the most conflict and struggle which the most probable outcome of
the main conflict is finally revealed.
Gwynn says that the central moment of crisis in a plot is the climax, or
moment of great tension, which inaugurates the falling action of the story, in which
the built-up tension is finally released. Some stories, particularly those involving a
heavy use of suspense, have a step “dramatic curve” and the writer uses all of his or
her skills to impel the reader toward the final confrontation. (Gwynn 9)
2.1.1.1.4 Falling Action
The story finds the solution in falling action. Falling action is the second half
or resolution of a dramatic plot (Holman 180). It means that the author usually gives
the solution of the story to close the problem and the story almost ends.
2.1.1.1.5 Denouement
Dénouement (resolution) is a French word which literally means untying. This
part reveals the final outcome or result of conflicts in the story. Gwynn (Gwynn 10)
says that the dénouement returns the character to another stable situation. Just as fairy
tales traditionally end with “And they lived happily ever after,” many stories
conclude with an indication of what the future holds for the character. Thus, from
quote above the writer use plot in this thesis because in every part of element plot
A p r i a n t o| 13
2.1.2 Theory of Value
When we think of our values, we think of what is important to us in our lives
(e.g., security, independence, wisdom, success, kindness, pleasure). Each of us holds
numerous values with varying degrees of importance. A particular value may be very
important to one person, but unimportant to another. Consensus regarding the most
useful way to conceptualize basic values has emerged gradually since the 1950’s. We
can summarize the main features of the conception of basic values implicit in the
writings of many theorists and researchers2 as follows:
1. Values are beliefs. But they are beliefs tied inextricably to emotion, not
objective, cold ideas.
2. Values are a motivational construct. They refer to the desirable goals
people strive to att ain.
3. Values transcend specific actions and situations. They are abstract goals.
The abstract nature of values distinguishes them from concepts like norms
and attitudes, which usually refer to specific actions, objects, or situations.
4. Values guide the selection or evaluation of actions, policies, people, and
events. That is, values serve as standards or criteria.
5. Values are ordered by importance relative to one another. People’s values
form an ordered system of value priorities that characterize them as
individuals. This hierarchical fe at ur e of values also distinguishes them
A p r i a n t o| 14
The Values Theory defines values as desirable, trans-situational goals, varying in
importance, that serves as guiding principles in people’s lives. The five features
above are common to all values. The crucial content aspect that distinguishes among
values is the type of motivational
2.1.2 Moral Value
2.1.2.1 Moral
According to Stemberg (Stemberg 938), morality refers to concern with what
is good or right in people’s relationships each other. A key to understanding morality
is to be specific about definition of good (or bad) and right or wrong According to
Immanuel Kant (Magnis Suseno 1992)
Morality is the assurance and inner attitude and is not merely an adjustment to the rules of the outside, whether it's state law, religion or customs.
Immanuel Kant, saying that morality concerning good and bad things, it means that
what is good in yourself, good on any restrictions at all. It is further said that, the
quality of one's moral criterion is loyalty itself. Morality is the implementation of the
obligations of respect for the law, while the law itself is written in the human heart. In
other words, morality is determined to follow what the heart is recognized as an
absolute obligation. Moral goodness is good in all respects, without restrictions, so it
A p r i a n t o| 15
A morality contains (1) beliefs about the nature of the man, (2) belief about
ideals, about what is good or desirable or worthy or pursuit for its own sake, (3) rules
laying down what ought to be done and (4) motives that incline us to choose the right
or the wrong course. We learn as children that we should be unselfish, that we should
not tell lies. (Paul Edwards 150).
I choose Immanuel definition because it is definition is the most complex than
the other.
2.1.2.2 Value
The term “values” may suggest that judgments of right and wrong, lofty and
base, just and unjust, and more personal preferences, that thing are useful as
individuals happen to value them. (Benninga 131).
Value is something that interesting for us, something that we look for,
something that pleases, something that loved, and in short value is something good.
Value has good connotation. (Bertens139).
2.1.2.3 Moral Value
Moral value is a reality that is hidden behind other realities. Judging means to
A p r i a n t o| 16
(motivator) attitudes and human behavior. Value as a system is one manifestation of
culture in addition to the social system and work. According to Lolita (2014:18).
There are four characteristic of moral value. There are as follows:
a. Moral value is related with responsibility
Moral value is related with human personality, but beside moral value we
also automatically can say other values. Moral value makes people wrong or
not, because he/she has responsibility. Especially moral value is related with
human personality of responsibility. Moral value just can be real in action
wholly if it became responsibility of the involved person.
b. Moral value is related with pure heart
All values need to make it real. Because it has persuasive power, it should be
practice. For example, aesthetic value, it should be practiced, play music
composition or the others. To make moral value to be real, it can be appealed
from pure heart. One of special characteristics of moral values is this value
will effect voice of pure heart to accuse us if oppose moral value and praise
us if make moral value.
c. Obligation
Moral value obligates us absolutely and it can not be compromised. Other
values need to be real and admitted, for example, aesthetic value. Educative
and cultural person will admit and enjoying aesthetic value. But in different
people can not we blame. Moral value obligates us as such, without
A p r i a n t o| 17
like or not, because moral value contains an imperative category. In other
value for example, if badminton player want to be champion, he/she must try
hard. It is a must to be champion, but there is a limitation.
d. Formality
Moral value is not stand-alone without other value. Although moral value is
top value that we must appreciate, but it is not in top without other value.
Moral values did not separate with other values. For example, a seller applies
moral values all at once with apply economic values. Moral values are
nothing without other values. It is form of formality. (Bertens 143-147).
Many spiritual values or we can mention with moral values that can be
learned by all people.
2.1.2.3.1 Direct Extend of Moral Value
In direct extend of moral value, the author usually describes characterization
of character directly of extend moral value of the literary work directly (Nurgiyantoro
335). It means that the reader know characterization of character and moral value of
literary work directly from the author’s explanation.
A p r i a n t o| 18
Moral value can describe indirectly in literary work. The author extends the
moral value in plot of the story. It shows in event of conflict of the story
(Nurgiyantoro 339). The reader gets moral value from every scene that the character
do or event in the story.
Indirect extend also have shortage. Sometime, the reader has different point of
view with the author. Because the author does not explain moral value directly but
explain in every event in story.
From the quote above means that the writer use indirect extend of moral value
because in this thesis discuss about moral value that connected to indirect extend of
moral value.
2.2 Review of Related Studies
1. An Analysis of Moral Values through Main Character in Vladimir Nabokov’s
Lolita by Yaumil Rizki Adinda
The first review of related studies is from An Analysis of Moral Values
through Main Character in Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita. Her thesis take novel of

A p r i a n t o| 19
the form of norms or rules. And is focused on the analysis of human behavior as
described in this Lolita novel for dose or normative measure the size refers to is
one of the merits of human behavior as a member of society. Moral is a reflection
of human behavior in public life.
2. An Analysis of plot used in the hobbit by Anisa fatiah
The second review studies are from an analysis of plot used in the hobbit
by Anisa fatiah. Her thesis take novel of plot is a literary term defined as the
events that make up a story, particularly as they relate to one another in a pattern,
in a sequence. Readers see the story through causes and effect or they just see by
chance. Things that will be discussed is the plot used in the novel the Hobbit by
J.J.R Tolkien. In the novel even may be found in the beginning, in the middle or
at the end of story.
The differences between both of the thesis about is the first analysis. The
first analysis that discusses the moral values that tell the involve human behavior
as described in the novel Lolita and dosing or normative measure. The size refers
to the good-bad is wrong with human behavior as a member of society. and moral
is a reflection of human behavior in society. The second analysis discusses the
plot in the novel and the plot here is a literary term that is defined as events that
make up the story, especially as they relate to one another in a sequential pattern.
And my analysis focus on Harry Potter’s Accusation to Sirius Black that
Sirius Black is a keeper of the Potter family and friends of James and Lily Potter

CHAPTER III
ANALYSIS
As the writer explains in the background of study in chapter one that the writer
analyzes this thesis uses formalism. Therefore, the writer analyzes plot and moral
value as in the novel.

"This is our driver, Ernie Prang. This, is Neville Longbottom, Ern. "Stan had unfurled a copy of the Daily Prophet and was now reading with his tongue between his teeth. A large photograph of a sunken-faced man with long, matted hair blinked slowly at Harry potter from the front page. He looked strangely familiar. "That man!" Harry said, forgetting his troubles for a moment. "He was on the Muggle news!" Stanley turned to the front page and chuckled. "Sirius Black," he said, nodding. "'Course 'e was on the Muggle news, Neville, where you been?" He gave a superior sort of chuckle at the blank look on Harry potter face, removed the front page, and handed it to Harry. "You oughta read the papers more, Neville." Harry held the paper up to the candlelight and read BLACK STILL AT LARGE Sirius Black, possibly the most infamous prisoner ever to be held in Azkaban fortress, is still eluding capture, the Ministry of Magic
confirmed today.

"If I hand it in, I'll have to say where I got it! Filch would know Fred and George had nicked it!" "But what about Sirius Black?" Hermione hissed. "He could be using one of the passages on that map to get into the castle! The teachers have got to know!" "He can't be getting in through a
A p r i a n t o | 24
From the quotation in this above means there is a secret tunnel heading on the
map but Fred and George already knew about four of them he said by Hermione
telling one verses in the map. HarryPotter then follow Fred and George turned to shut
the door. Afterthat Fred pull something out of Harry Potter robe. Then HarryPotter

After Harry Potter arriving in Hogsmeade Harry Potter theme meet with friends

Potter know that Sirius Black already in Hogsmade. The statement above refers to the
quotation bellow.
In an instant, Ron and Hermione had both placed hands on the top of Harry potter head and forced him off his stool and under the table. Dripping with butter beer and crouching out of sight, Harry clutched his empty tankard and watched the teachers' and Fudge's feet move toward the bar, pause, then turn and walk right toward him. Somewhere above him, Hermione whispered, Mobiliarbus!"
The Christmas tree beside their table rose a few inches off the ground, drifted sideways, and landed with a soft thump right in front of their table, hiding them from view. Staring through the dense lower branches, Harry saw four sets of chair legs move back from the table right beside theirs, then heard the grunts and sighs If the teachers and minister as they sat down.
From quotation above Ron and Hermione hold Harry Potter’s hand to force
hiding under the table to oversee fudge that will be heading to the bar, then Harry

Professor said that Mc Gonagall Harry Potter and Sirius Black are very clever.
Harry Potter assumes that Sirius Black is more than a friend and professor flitwich
thought Sirius Black and Harry Potter were brothers. And then Jones was married
Lily, he became Harry Potter is guardian. So Sirius Black became keeper of the
family of Harry Potter. And but Rosmerta suspect Sirius Black is not providing
information or who holds the secretto the family of Harry Potter. The statment above
refers to the quotation bellow.
"So Black was the Potters' Secret-Keeper?" whispered Madam Rosmerta. "Naturally," said Professor McGonagall. "James Potter told Dumbledore that Black would die rather than tell where they were, that Black was planning to go into hiding himself... and yet, Dumbledore remained worried. I remember him offering to be the Potters' Secret-Keeper himself." "He suspected Black?" gasped Madam Rosmerta. "He was sure that somebody close to the Potters had been keeping You-Know-Who informed of their movements," said Professor McGonagall darkly. "Indeed, he had suspected for some time that someone on our side had turned traitor and was passing a lot of information to You-Know-Who." A long silence followed Hagrid's story.
"Of course they were," said Fudge. "Potter trusted Black beyond all his other friends. Nothing changed when they left school. Black was best man when James married Lily. Then they named him godfather to Harry. Harry has no idea, of course. You can imagine how the idea would torment him."Because Black turned out to be in league with You-Know-Who?" whispered Madam Rosmerta.
Said Professor McGonagall. "Keep your voice down! "How do I know he did not pitch 'angry abou' Lily an 'James? That You-Know-Who is he cares abou '! An 'then he said,' Give me Harry ter, Hagrid, I'm her guardian, I'll take care of him - 'Ha! But I had my orders from Dumbledore, and I said Black did not, Dumbledore told Harry terter go aunt an 'uncle. Black argued, but in the end he gave in. Told me ter take ter his motorcycle ride Harry there. "I will not need it again, "he said.
From explanation above means James Potter said to Dumbledore's that Sirius

Potters had been keeping you. then Sirius Black is believed that Harry Potter more
ability to surpass all his other friends. When they have left school Sirius Black was
best man when James and Lily were married because they named the godfather of
Harry Potter.
From all complication above is Harry Potter to a Secret-Keeper leading to the
map but Fred and George already knew about four of them he said to Hermione says
one verse in the map. Then in the second row complication tell Ron and Hermione
put her hand to the head of Harry Potter to force hiding under the table to keep an eye
on fudge and the last in the complication is the accusation Sirius Black were
presumed dead when he was just hiding, then Sirius Black are be the best man when
James and Lily married and James and Lily when it named Sirius Black is the
godfather of Herry Potter.
3.1.3 Climax
After Harry Potter knows is Sirius black from his teacher’s conversation in
Hogsmade, Harry Potter more know who is Sirius Black when Harry Potter meets
with Sirius Black under the Whomping Willow tree.
The accident under the whomping willow tree happen when Ron chase his Rat
scabbers. Enter in under Whomping Willow tree. After Ron and his Rat enter in
whomping willow tree, Harry Potter and Hermione come to help Ron. But after Harry
A p r i a n t o | 27
entered in one room. They meet Ron. Ron’s hand bound, mouth gagged guarded by a
black dog that he ever see in leacky cauldron. But when Harry potter and Hermione
they to liberate Ron, the black dog change as Sirius Black.The statment above refers
to the quotation bellow.
"Harry -- we're never going to get through without help --"
Another branch whipped down at them, twigs clenched like knuckles. "If that dog can get in, we can," Harry panted, darting here and there, trying to find a way through the vicious, swishing branches, but he couldn't get an inch nearer to the tree roots without being in range of the tree's blows.
"Oh, help, help," Hermione whispered frantically, dancing U._ certainly on the spot, "Please..."
Crookshanks darted forward. He slithered between the battering branches like a snake and placed his front paws upon a knot on the trunk.
Abruptly, as though the tree had been turned to marble, it stopped moving. Not a leaf twitched or shook.
"Crookshanks!" Hermione whispered uncertainly. She now grasped Harry's arm painfully hard. "How did he know --?"
"He's friends with that dog," said Harry grimly. "I've seen them together. Come on -- and keep your wand out --"
They covered the distance to the trunk in seconds, but before they had reached the gap in the roots, Crookshanks had slid into it with a flick of his bottlebrush tail. Harry went next; he crawled forward, headfirst, and slid down an earthy slope to the bottom of a very low tunnel. Crookshanks was a little way along, his eyes flashing in the light from
Harry's wand. Seconds later, Hermione slithered down beside him
"Where's Ron?" she whispered in a terrified voice.
"This way," said Harry, setting off, bent-backed, after Crookshanks. "Where does this tunnel come out?" Hermione asked breathlessly from behind him.
"I don't know... It's marked on the Marauder's Map but Fred and George said no one's ever gotten into it.... It goes off the edge of the map, but it looked like it was heading for Hogsmeade..."
A p r i a n t o | 28
crouch....
And then the tunnel began to rise; moments later it twisted, and Crookshanks had gone. instead, Harry could see a patch of dim light
through a small opening. He and Hermione paused, gasping for breath, edging forward. Both raised
The quotation above means that Harry Potter had been knows who the Black
dog that always follows him is. The black dog is Sirius Black. Harry Potter involved
in an argument or conversation under whomping willow tree.
Harry Potter also knows that professor Lupin has relation with Sirius Black.
Because Harry Potter think that Sirius Black is the wicked, and professor Lupin
always help Harry Potter to avoid the crime. Suddenly, professor Lupin comes in that
room. In their Harry Potter feels confuse with Sirius Black and professor Lupin.
Then, professor Lupin explains to Harry Potter, Ron and Hermione about friendship.
Sirius black is the old friends Harry Potters parent. The statment above refers to the
quotation bellow.
Harry couldn't see where this story was going, but he was listening raptly all the same. The only sound apart from Lupin's voice was Scabbers's frightened squeaking.
"My transformations in those days were -- were terrible. It is very painful to turn into a werewolf. I was separated from humans to bite, so I bit and scratched myself instead. The villagers heard the noise and the screaming and thought they were hearing particularly violent
spirits. Dumbledore encouraged the rumor.... Even now, when the house has been silent for years, the villagers don't dare approach it...."
A p r i a n t o | 29
The quotation above means that Sirius Black comeback in Hogsmade is not
to kill Harry Potter, and Sirius Black does not murder Harry Potter parents and some
Muggle in that era. Sirius Black is guardian of Harry Potter’s family. but one day,
Sirius Black designate Peter Pattigrew to replace Sirius Black as guard family Harry
Potter. Beside of that Peter Pattigrew is member of Lord Voldemort, enemies of
Harry Potter family.
After proffessor Lupin come under whomping willow tree, proffessor Lupin
and Sirius Black try to cath scabbers,Ron’s Rat. They think that the Ron’s Rat is
Peter Pattigrew. They force Peter Pettigrew to changes be came a human.The
statment above refers to the quotation bellow.
A flash of blue-white light erupted from both wands; for a moment, Scabbers was frozen in midair, his small gray form twisting madly -- Ron yelled -- the rat fell and hit the floor. There was another blinding
flash of light and then --
It was like watching a speeded-up film of a growing tree. A head was shooting upward from the ground; limbs were sprouting; a moment later, a man was standing where Scabbers had been, cringing and wringing his hands. Crookshanks was spitting and snarling on the bed; the hair on his back was standing up.
He was a very short man, hardly taller than Harry and Hermione. His thin, colorless hair was unkempt and there was a large bald patch on top. He had the shrunken appearance of a plump man who has lost a lot of weight in a short time. His skin looked grubby, almost like Scabbers's fur, and something of the rat lingered around his pointed nose and his very small, watery eyes. He looked around at them all, his breathing fast and shallow. Harry saw his eyes dart to the door and back again. "Well, hello, Peter," said Lupin pleasantly, as though rats frequently erupted into old school friends around him. "Long time, no see.
A p r i a n t o | 30
Both Black and Lupin strode forward, seized Pettigrew's shoulders, and threw him backward onto the floor. He sat there, twitching with terror, staring up at them.
The data above means that all this time Peter Pattigrew hide and changes
himself as a Rat. He hides because Peter Pattigrew already provide information about
Lily and James Potter, or Harry Potter’s parents to lord Voldemort.
So the climax of the story tells about the accident under whomping willow
tree where grim, Sirius Black or black dog that always looking at Harry Potter. Harry
potter also know who is Sirius Black. In there Harry Potter know a person that will
Harry Potter’s parent. He is peter Pattigrew spy Lord Voldemort.
3.1.4 Falling Action
Professor Dumbledore proposes to use hours of time to repeat all the events
that have experiencedby Harry Potter, Hermione, and Ron. This step aims to know
the events that have been experienced Harry Potter, and save some lives in the
incident.
After Harry Potter, Ron, and Hermione was saved from the terrible events in
the willow and the edge of the lake, Harry Potter and his friends back to Hogwarts.
Professor Dumbledore calls Harry Potter and Hermione. Professor Dumbledore
proposes Hermione to use clock time to repeat all the recent events; Hermione and
Harry Potter's natural.The statment above refers to the quotation bellow.
A p r i a n t o | 31
well, you will be able to save more than one innocent life tonight. But remember this, both of you: you must not be seen. Miss Granger, you know
the law -- you know what is at stake.... You -- must -- not -- be -- seen."
Harry didn't have a clue what was going on. Dumbledore had turned on his
heel and looked back as he reached the door.
"I am going to lock you in. It is --" he consulted his watch, "five minutes to midnight. Miss Granger, three turns should do it. Good luck."
It means that Professor Dumbledore wants Harry Potter Hermione and help
them in the past and save some lives in this accident. Although Harry Potter does not
know what the purpose by Professor Dumbledore and Hermione. To use the time
machine, Harry Potter also knows all of the accident in the past. For use clock time,
Harry Potter knows that a person who save Buckbeak for executor that will execute it
is Harry Potter. Harry Potter also save himself and Sirius Black from a hundred
Dementors that surround the lake. And also Harry Potter success to use Petronous
spell to expel hundreds of Dementors. Harry Potter also freed Sirius Black from the
pursuit of the Dementors that will return to the Azkaban.
3.1.5 Denouement
In denouement, the story closes with Harry Potter to his backs to activity in
Hogwarts. Harry Potter gets a letter from Sirius Black.
After Hermione and Harry Potter has had a big accident under a giant willow
A p r i a n t o | 32
restore Sirius Black to the Azkaban. Sirius Black also sends a letter to Harry Potter
after free from Dementors.The statment above refers to quotation bellow.
Dear Harry,
I hope this finds you before you reach your aunt and uncle. I don't know whether they're used to owl post.
Buckbeak and I are in hiding. I won't tell you where, in case this owl falls into the wrong hands. I have some doubt about his reliability, but he is the best I could find, and he did seem eager for the job.
I believe the dementors are still searching for me, but they haven't a hope of finding me here. I am planning to allow some Muggles to glimpse me soon, a long way from Hogwarts, so that the security on the castle will be lifted.
...
Crookshanks took the order to the Owl Office for me. I used your name but told them to take the gold from my own Gringotts vault. Please consider it as thirteen birthdays' worth of presents from your godfather.
I would also like to apologize for the fright I think I gave you that night last year when you left your uncle's house. I had only hoped to get a glimpse of you before starting my journey north, but I think the sight of me alarmed you.
I am enclosing something else for you, which I think will make your next year at Hogwarts more enjoyable.
If ever you need me, send word. Your owl will find me. I'll write again soon.
Sirius
...
I, Sirius Black, Harry Potter's godfather, hereby give him permission to visit Hogsmeade on weekends.
...
A p r i a n t o | 33
King's Cross station. It was still clutched tightly in his hand as he,
Ron, and Hermione stepped back through the barrier of platform nine an(' three-quarters. Harry spotted Uncle Vernon at once. He was standing a good distance from Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, eyeing them suspiciously, and when Mrs. Weasley hugged Harry in greeting, his worst suspicions about them seemed confirmed.
"I'll call about the World Cup!" Ron yelled after Harry as Harry bid himand Hermione good-bye, then wheeled the trolley bearing his trunk and
Hedwig's cage toward Uncle Vernon, who greeted him in his usual fashion. "What's that?" he snarled, staring at the envelope Harry was still
clutching in his hand. "If it's another form for me to sign, you've got another ---"
"It's not," said Harry cheerfully. "It's a letter from my godfather."
The data above means Sirius Black gives news about his condition and
Buckbeak. Sirius Black as Harry Potter’s Godfather also gives a permission to Harry
Potter go to Hogsmade. Harry Poter feels happy when Sirius Black sends a letter and
he claim that Harry Potter as his son. It shows when Harry Potter brings and reads
Sirius Black’s letter for journey to King’s road station when Harry Potter will back to
Uncle Vernon’s house.
The denounment focus on Sirius Black sends a letter to Harry Potter. Sirius
Black also became Godfather of Harry Potter and gives permission to Harry Potter to
go to Hogsmade.

accusations as a person who murder Harry Potter parent and thirteen muggle around
of Harry Potter’s house. But in reality Sirius Black does not do the people’s say.
"Well, really, I had to, don't you know," said irritable Fudge. "Black is mad. He's a danger to anyone who crosses him, magic or Muggle. I have the Prime Minister's assurance that he will not breathe a word of Black's true identity to anyone. And let's face it-who'd believe him if he did?"
Harry looked into the shadowed eyes of Sirius Black, the only part of the sunken face that seemed alive. Harry had never met a vampire, but he had seen pictures of them in his Defense Against the Dark Arts classes, and Black, with his waxy white skin, looked just like one. "Scary-lookin' fing, inee?" said Stan, who had been watching Harry read. "He murdered thirteen people?" said Harry, handing the page back to
Stan, "with one curse?" "Yep," said Stan, "in front of witnesses an' all. Broad daylight. Big trouble it caused, dinnit, Ern?"
"Ar," said Ern darkly.
According quote above Harry Potter judge Sirius black from his cover, that realize
from Harry potter says even though Harry Potter never meet with Sirius Black before.
Overall, no doubt that physical appearance of Sirius Black look like a criminal, it is normally
some people judge person by the cover.
"Potter trusted Black beyond all his other friends. Nothing changed when they left school. Black was best man when James married Lily. Then they named him godfather to Harry. Harry has no idea, of course. You can imagine how the idea would torment him."
"Involving the magical concealment of a secret inside a single, living soul. The information is hidden inside the chosen person, or Secret-Keeper, and is henceforth
impossible to find -- unless, of course, the Secret-Keeper chooses to divulge it. As long as the Secret-Keeper refused to speak, You-Know-Who could search the village where Lily and James were staying for years and never find them, not even if he had his nose pressed against their
sitting room window!" "So Black was the Potters' Secret-Keeper?" whispered Madam Rosmerta. "Naturally," said Professor McGonagall. "James Potter told Dumbledore
A p r i a n t o | 35
worried. I remember him offering to be the Potters' Secret-Keeper himself."
The data above means the after all secret is revealed Harry potter realize that Sirius
Black is not bad person. More over Harry Potter trust to Sirius Black more than his
trust to the other friends. It is not like Harry potter judgments in the first quote that
judge Sirius Black from his cover. Actually in fact, Sirius Black is the best friends of
Harry Potter’s father and his godfather.
"Harry," said Lupin hurriedly, "don't you see? All this time we've thought Sirius betrayed your parents, and Peter tracked him down -- but it was the other way around, don't you see? Peter betrayed your mother and father -- Sirius tracked Peter down --"
"THAT'S NOT TRUE!" Harry yelled. "HE WAS THEIR SECRET-KEEPER! HE SAID SO
BEFORE YOU TURNED UP. HE SAID HE KILLED THEM!" He was pointing at Black, who shook his head slowly; the sunken eyes were suddenly over bright.
"Harry... I as good as killed them," he croaked. "I persuaded Lily and James to change to Peter at the last moment, persuaded them to use him as Secret-Keeper instead of me.... I'm to blame, I know it.... The night they died, I'd arranged to check on Peter, make sure he was still safe, but when I arrived at his hiding place, he'd gone. Yet there was no sign of a struggle. It didn't feel right. I was scared. I set out for your
parents' house straight away. And when I saw their house, destroyed, and their bodies... I realized what Peter must've done... what I'd done...."
From the quotation above, we can see that Sirius Black was judging by the
people as the suspect on the incident when Harry Potter’s parent was killed, beside
Sirius Black want to visit Harry Potter’s parent. it happens because when Sirius

So from all of the data above, Sirius Black does not do what the people’s say
about him, actually he try to help Harry Potter, firstly Harry Potter does not about the
fact so that he judge Sirius Black is bad person. After he knows about the reality that
happens to his parent finally Harry Potter is conscious that Sirius Black is kind

BIOGRPHY OF J.K ROWLING
Joanne Kathleen Rowling was born on 31 July 1965, in the quaint village
of Chipping Sod bury, in Gloucestershire, England. Her father was Peter James
Rowling, and her mother, Anne. Two years after Rowling was born, her mother
gave birth to a sister, called Diana. Rowling (who likes to be called by her
nickname, Jo) has said that one of the reasons she first began making up stories
was in order to keep her younger sibling entertained.
Rowling attended school at nearby St. Michael's village school, and has
often claimed that her first headmaster, an elderly teacher called Alfred Dunn, was
the inspiration for the character of Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter's head teacher
at Hogwarts. Rowling was composing her first fantasy stories in her spare time,
including one of her earliest tales, about a rabbit called Rabbit. Rowling's sister
recalls that he was unlucky enough to catch the measles, and was visited by his
friends, including a giant bee called Miss Bee. When she was nine-years-old, the
family moved to the village of Tutshill, near Chepstow, where she went on to
attend secondary school at Wyedean College.
In interviews, Rowling has described herself as being "shy and freckly,
with no sports ability, but a great love of literature." When asked about her
teenage years, she said, "The character of Hermione is loosely based on me,
which I'm not particularly proud of." During the same period, an elderly aunt gave
A p r i a n t o | 42
subsequently became one of her favourite authors. Quiet and studious, she did
well at school, and went on to graduate with a Bachelor's degree in French and
Classics at the University of Exeter. Her student days were happy ones by all
accounts, for she recalls her delight at meeting "like-minded people", and she was
also lucky enough to spend a year studying in Paris.
After graduating, Rowling moved to London, where she initially began
training to become a bilingual secretary. However, she abandoned this idea after a
while, since she soon discovered that she was "the worst secretary ever, very
disorganised!". In addition, her attention would wander during meetings, as ideas
for stories would come to her while she was meant to be taking dictation. But her
daydreaming was to prove far more rewarding in the long run, for in early 1990,
during the course of a long train journey from Manchester to London, she first had
the idea for a story about a young boy who goes to study at a school for wizards.
Shortly afterwards, she decided to retrain as an English teacher, and
moved to Portugal, where she met and married a native journalist, called Jorge
Arantes, in 1992. She gave birth to their daughter, Jessica Isabel, on 27 July the
following year. Sadly, the marriage was short-lived, and the couple separated only
four short months later. A year later, Rowling moved back to Britain, and went to
live in Edinburgh, Scotland, so that she could be near her sister. Life as a single
mother living on social security in the bleak Scottish winter was dismal, and she
was subsequently diagnosed with clinical depression; she is on record as saying
that at one point during this ultra-low period of her life, she even contemplated
A p r i a n t o | 43
However, like all true writers, she channeled her worst experiences to
creative ends, and used her experience of depression as the basis for the
happiness-sucking wraiths in the Harry Potter books, the Dementors. Her daily
routine included lots of long walks in order to get her baby daughter to fall asleep,
and she would often end up in Nicholson's Café. It was here in this Edinburgh
café that she first began to set down on paper her ideas - and the rest, as they say,
is history…
Creating the character of Harry Potter did not bring overnight fame and
fortune for the struggling single mum; and there were to be many twists and turns
along the way before Rowling's quality as an author were fully recognized. In
1995, she finished typing out 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone' on an old
manual typewriter, and sent it out to various literary agents. A reader called
Bryony Evans, at Christopher Little literary agents, was quick to recognize the
potential of her work, and the firm promptly agreed to represent her, sending the
book out to no less than twelve publishers.
It was to be a full year before she received the exciting news that her book
had found a publisher: the lucky firm was the small publishing house of
Bloomsbury. Publishing legend has it that the decision to publish the book owes
much to Alice Newton, the eight-year-old daughter of Bloomsbury's chairman.
Rowling was paid an advance of £1,500 for her first novel, which was published
