- Abstract
The expressions of emotions and their experiential valuation depend on human explanations. Besides, locating emotions in the tales, the source of emotional flow and thetransformation of the one under observation, are equally important. For this purpose, the present study used the theoretical framework of becoming by Deleuze and Guattari to analyze becoming emotions among the selected characters from Colfer's fairy tale, The Land of Stories: The Enchantress Returns (2013). The thematic analysis propounded that emotions are not an abstract and intangible entity. Thus at non substantial thought or molecular level, the process of becoming connects emotions as a substantial entity with the individual. The affects of becoming is reflected in one's speech and actions. However, the affects of prolong deterritorialization can lead into disastrous effects. Therefore, after experiencing becoming emotions, one is always allowed to reterritorialize into molar substantial forms from molecularity.
