BOOK REVIEW OF MATILDA WRITTEN BY ROALD DAHL
No full textNovel adalah refleksi dari kebudayaan manusia. Novel identik dengan sebuah karya sastra yang berbentuk prosa yang cukup panjang, dan cenderung fiktif. Sebuah novel tersusun berdasarkan unsur-unsur pembangun seperti unsur intrinsik dan ekstrinsik. Novel yang penulis ulas pada final project ini berjudul Matilda karangan penulis cerita anak-anak terkenal dari Inggris, Roald Dahl. Dahl terkenal karena karyanya yang imajinatif dan alur yang, menurut pendapat penulis, sulit ditebak. Matilda, menurut penulis, adalah novel imajiner dengan tema yang ringan. Cocok dibaca untuk semua golongan usia. Namun, pada novel ini Dahl banyak menggunakan hiperbola dalam melukiskan jalan ceritanya. Alasan inilah yang mendasari penulis untuk mengulas salah satu novel dari Roald Dahl, yaitu Matilda.
Matilda tergolong novel populer karena ceritanya mudah dipahami dan pengarang tidak berbelit-belit dalam menyampaikan cerita. Karena novel ini diperuntukkan bagi anak-anak, cerita yang dihadirkan mengikuti selera serta imajinasi pengarang, tidak rumit dan berkembang dengan sederhana sesuai dengan logika anak-anak.

Matilda of Canossa
No full textMatilda of Canossa, Countess of Tuscany, was born in 1046 to a noble family in northern Italy. She could have ended like so many other noble women during her time, as a simple tool with which to form marriage alliances between leading houses. However, with the support and mentorship of her mother, Matilda became a ruler in her own right.
Matilda was not only in full control of her own estate, she also commanded her own army and kept additional territory in Italy. In addition, she had close ties to the pope himself, Gregory VII. Matilda managed her monetary, military, and political assets in such a cunning way that she rose to be one of the most influential women of her time. The two most important rulers of the time, the Holy Roman Emperor and the pope, fully recognised Matilda’s value as an asset, and found themselves with either a powerful ally or a powerful enemy in her.Peer reviewedstudent peer-reviewed journal articlefinal article publishe
