 One of the interesting in learning Critical Literacy is we get to apply all the things we learn in the class.. to solve cases which is also very interesting subject..One our task is to apply discourse analysis into Jack the Ripper case.. Let me explain what is Jack The Ripper.
Jack the Ripper is a murders which occurred in the East of London during 1888. during that time it is more commonly known as The Whitechapel Murderer. it is an unsolved mystery which until now we did not know who is Jack The Ripper. This murders had a huge impact on the society in London as a whole.

Info about JTR.

Generaly, Jack the Ripper had only five victims. First Mary Nichols, murdered on 31st August 1888. Second, Annie Chapman, murdered on 8th September 1888. Elizabeth Stride, murdered on 30th September 1888. Catherine Eddowes, which is also murdered on 30th September 1888. Lastly, Mary Kelly, murdered on 9th November 1888.

During this time, there are many people with so many speculations and theory who the Jack the Ripper would be. This is also the reason why this case is very famous until today. Every reporter in London were covering this story.

However, the police during that time is not the same with our police right now. they does not use the method our police currently use. One of the problem are the layout of the area where the murder happen. it is full with tiny passageways, and back alleys and it is very dark during that time.

Over the years, the number of suspect for Jack the Ripper case is about a hunderd suspects. some are interesting suspect with motive and ability to kill and some are ridiculous.
