Abstract

This study aims to analyze the forms and causes of the protagonists’ internal conflicts in the novels The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini and Seporsi Mie Ayam Sebelum Mati by Brian Khrisna, utilizing Kurt Lewin’s approach-avoidance conflict theory. These two novels were selected because they both explore themes of trauma, guilt, and despair experienced by their protagonists despite originating from different socio-cultural contexts thereby enabling a cross-cultural comparison of psychological conflict patterns. The study employs a literary psychology approach, utilizing a qualitative descriptive method and a literature review (textual analysis) for data collection. The data consist of narrative excerpts and dialogue from both novels that indicate the protagonists’ psychological conflicts; these data were subsequently analyzed using content analysis techniques. The findings reveal that the character Amir in The Kite Runner experiences an approach-avoidance conflict, characterized by a struggle between the desire to atone for past mistakes and the fear of confronting trauma and guilt. Meanwhile, Ale in Seporsi Mie Ayam Sebelum Mati experiences an avoidance-avoidance conflict, characterized by a choice between enduring life’s suffering and putting an end to his despair. These differing forms of conflict demonstrate that the characters’ psychological pressures are influenced by the specific socio-cultural contexts of each story. This research is expected to enrich the study of cross-cultural literary psychology, particularly regarding the understanding of the variations in internal conflicts experienced by fictional characters.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the representation of the lives of marginalized groups depicted in the drama script Mega-Mega by Arifin C. Noer, by applying the theoretical framework of the sociology of literature developed by Alan Swingewood. Specifically, this study attempts to describe the portrait of the lives of marginalized groups while examining the socio-economic conditions reflected in the literary work. The study uses a qualitative descriptive approach supported by content analysis techniques, with data sources in the form of fragments of words, sentences, and dialogues in the script that are relevant to the theme of marginality. The research findings reveal that the Mega-Mega script represents the bitter reality of marginalized groups who are shackled by structural poverty, minimal access to welfare, and the erosion of their self-esteem in an unequal social structure. Within the framework of Swingewood’s sociology of literature, this work is positioned as an authentic record of social reality that also functions as a vehicle for criticism of systems that do not side with small communities. This research is expected to enrich the treasury of sociological studies of literature, especially in the realm of analyzing works that carry the themes of poverty and social marginalization.
