Abstract

The main aim of this research is to elaborate the narrative structure of digital prose across various online platforms and examine how digital media characteristics influence storytelling forms. A qualitative approach and the integration of Gérard Genette’s structural narratology with Marie-Laure Ryan’s transmedial narratology are applied. The object of this research is the selected texts from Wattpad, Webtoon, Fizzo, and Karyakarsa. The findings of this research show that digital prose tends to apply linear yet accelerated and fragmented narrative structures, characterized by dominant internal focalization and homodiegetic narration to enhance reader engagement. Furthermore, each platform shapes narrative configuration differently. For example, Webtoon emphasizes multimodal and spatialized storytelling, Wattpad facilitates participatory, community-driven narrative; third, Fizzo promotes compressed, fast-paced storytelling; and fourth, Karyakarsa integrates a narrative production with social and economic interaction. These results reveal that digital prose is not simply an extension of printed literature, but it is a platform-dependent narrative form which is shaped by the interaction between textual strategies (narratology structure) and technological affordances (transmedial narratology). This study contributes to digital narratology by highlighting how platform features actively reconfigure narrative structures and reader–text relationships in contemporary storytelling.

Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze the forms and functions of phonological and morphological deviations in Iwan Simatupang’s Ziarah Malam poetry collection. The study employs a qualitative descriptive method with a stylistic approach. The data consist of linguistic forms, particularly words and other textual units, that deviate from conventional Indonesian linguistic forms. Data were collected through intensive reading and note-taking and were analyzed through identification, classification, contextual interpretation, and description. The findings reveal 9 instances of phonological deviation, consisting of 7 cases of phoneme omission and 2 cases of phoneme substitution. Phonological deviations contribute to rhythm, rhyme, sound harmony, and colloquial effects. Meanwhile, 26 instances of morphological deviation were identified, consisting of 14 neologisms, 5 suffix omissions, 4 prefix omissions, and 3 reduplication omissions. Morphological deviations demonstrate the poet’s creative manipulation of conventional word-formation processes and contribute to linguistic compression, rhythmic effects, semantic nuance, and stylistic originality. The findings indicate that phonological and morphological deviations in Ziarah Malam function not merely as departures from standard Indonesian but as deliberate stylistic strategies that enhance the aesthetic and expressive qualities of the poems. Thus, the creative manipulation of sound patterns and morphological structures constitutes an important feature of Iwan Simatupang’s poetic language.
