Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impacts experienced by a family caused by the absence of a father, as shown in Louisa May Alcott's novel, Little Women. The writer chose this title because the father's role in realizing the family's stability and quality is very important. This study also aims to find out how important the role of a father in the family environment is and what impact will occur if there is no father figure in a family. This study is a literature review research. This means that the data collected comes from books, the novel Little Women by Louisa May Alcott as primary data and scientific articles related to research as secondary data. This research is qualitative. In her study, the writer gets help from two theories. These are objective theories by M.H. Abram and psychosocial theories by Erik Erikson. The data collection technique used is to read the novel carefully to find data related to the father's absence's social and psychological impact, then identify, classify, and draw conclusions with the help of the theory used. This study found that the March family member in the novel, Mrs March, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, received social impacts in the form of 1) Economic Crisis, 2) Envy, 3) Social relations, and 4) Empathy. Meanwhile, psychological impacts are in the form of 1) Unfeminine, 2) Brave, 3) Maturity, 4) Emotional Instability, 5) Ambition, and 6) Selfishness
