describing emotion
According to Fell's opinion in Strongman (2003: 28), human emotion is a
meaningful relationship between a person and their invirontment. In
addition, emotions can be seen in the characters in the novel.

Based on Krech's (1969: 521) statement in the book Elements of


Psychology, there are four classifications of emotion:
1. basic emotions (joy, anger, fear, sadness),
2. sensor stimulation (pain, disgust, pleasure),
3. self-assessment (success and failure, pride and shame, guilt and
regret),
4. emotions related to other people (love and hate).
emotion example
Emotions of sadness
“I have a few weeks... I asked for some
time to say good-bye to you all, to help
Padma adjust, and to prepare.” I blinked
back my tears. “I can’t believe you’ll be
gone so soon.” The joy I had at gaining a
new sister was on par with the pain of
losing another. (Cass, 2016: 107)
