Abstract

This study, entitled Protagonist’s Optimism Values in Rachael Lippincott’s Five Feet Apart, aims to analyze the optimism values reflected through the main character, Stella Grant, using a qualitative descriptive method. The analysis focuses on how Stella’s behavior demonstrates optimism as she faces the challenges of living with cystic fibrosis. Despite her illness, Stella remains positive, adheres to her medical treatments, and strives not to burden her parents with grief. Her encounter with Will Newman—a more pessimistic patient—further shapes her understanding of life, resilience, and self-compassion. The study applies Snyder’s framework of optimism as cited in Goleman’s Emotional Intelligence, identifying five core optimism values: having expectations for recovery, persistence, self-motivation, self-confidence, and resilience. The findings reveal that Stella most strongly embodies the values of maintaining high expectations for recovery and demonstrating high self-confidence. These aspects underline the novel’s central message of hope, perseverance, and emotional strength in the face of suffering.

Abstract

This study explores local wisdom in Andrea Hirata’s novel Guru Aini using a qualitative descriptive method supported by the Sociology of Literature approach and Indigenous Knowledge Theory. The research focuses on identifying and analyzing five core values of Indonesian local wisdom portrayed in the novel: mutual cooperation (gotong royong), respect for elders, simple lifestyle, love for family, and preservation of cultural traditions. These values are explored through the characters, setting, plot, and dialogue, all of which reflect the socio-cultural life of the Belitung community. The primary data source is the 2020 edition of Guru Aini, complemented by scholarly references from previous studies. The findings clearly show that all five values of local wisdom are consistently and meaningfully present throughout the novel. Each value is embedded not only in the actions and attitudes of the characters but also in the social interactions and traditions depicted in the narrative. Thus, the novel serves both as a literary text and a cultural repository, offering insight into Indonesia’s traditional knowledge systems. This research concludes that literature, particularly novels like Guru Aini, can be a powerful medium for preserving cultural identity and transmitting ethical values. The findings demonstrate that Guru Aini portrays five values of Indonesian local wisdom through narrative structure and characterization, reinforcing literature’s role as a cultural repository and educational tool for character development.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of feminism in Linda Howard’s novel Cry No More using Sara Mills’ Feminist Stylistics model. Situated within the romance thriller genre, the novel offers a productive site to explore how female agency is negotiated between empowerment and vulnerability. The data consist of selected narrative units featuring the protagonist, Milla Edge, which are analyzed through lexical and syntactic categorization focusing on Subject–Object positioning and reader positioning. The analysis reveals three dominant patterns: Milla is constructed as an active Subject through high-transitivity verbs and agentic nominalizations in her role as leader of the “Finders” organization; she is simultaneously rendered an Object via passive structures and a lexicon of suffering; and key resolutions of the plot often depend on male protectors. These findings demonstrate that Milla’s agency functions as “negotiated empowerment,” thereby contributing to feminist Critical Discourse Analysis of popular fiction by showing how patriarchal norms are both challenged and reproduced at the level of linguistic choice.

Abstract

This study examines the linguistic construction of melancholy and memory in Lang Leav’s poem “Revelation” from Memories (2015) through an integrated framework of feminist stylistics and affect theory. While contemporary feminist scholarship has increasingly engaged with affect, limited attention has been given to how linguistic form in minimalist poetry structures emotional knowledge. Addressing this gap, the study adopts a qualitative interpretive-analytical approach, combining close stylistic analysis with affective interpretation. Drawing on feminist stylistics (Mills, 1995; Montoro, 2023) and affect theory (Ahmed, 2014; Hemmings, 2024), the analysis focuses on lexical choice, grammatical patterns, and figurative language to examine how emotion operates as a mode of knowing. The findings demonstrate that Leav’s minimalist diction and syntactic restraint construct melancholy not as emotional passivity but as an epistemic process of self-recognition. Memory functions as an affective medium through which feminine subjectivity negotiates identity and emotional continuity. The study conceptualizes this strategy as affective minimalism: a poetic mode in which linguistic economy intensifies emotional cognition rather than diminishing it. This challenges traditional binaries between emotion and reason; positioning affects as a legitimate epistemological resource. Theoretically, the study extends feminist stylistics toward affective epistemology and contributes to contemporary feminist poetics by showing how minimalist poetic language can articulate emotional agency and feminist self-representation in the digital age.

Abstract

Abstract. Gender issues have remained a hot issue owing to various influencing factors, including gender overlap and social inequality. Gender is a social sex reconstructed by society for both men and women. The gender difference stereotypes have given rise to gender injustice detrimental to women. The presence of the concept of existential feminism initiated by Simone De Beauvoir is a bright spot and hope for all women, especially those in patriarchal system communities. The purpose of this research is to uncover the traditional paradigm that women are cultural products and their independence is delimited. This is not in accordance with the concept of human rights which basically states that every human being has the same rights in carrying out life. So it is hoped that this paper can be used as a reference to eliminate the marginalization of women. The research is carried out using a qualitative descriptive design with phenomenological method to explore or photograph social situations thoroughly, broadly and deeply and also supported by the theory of sociology of literature, the description of social reality in literary works. The data collection procedures and the data analysis are done systematically based on the existing theories of qualitative research method. The results of the research show that the protagonist implements the existential feminist concept through the ability to work, being intellectual and responsible.  Throughout the research it is proved that existential feminism still exists to explore the marginalization of woman, summed up with a text that women are independent beings. Keywords: Existential Feminism, Intellect, Profession, Responsibility

Abstract

This study examines the concept of collective knowledge in President A.S.’s speeches through the lens of social epistemology, focusing on the period from 2015 to 2020 within the broader temporal frame of 2000–2025. Departing from traditional individualistic accounts of knowledge, the research treats political discourse as a site where knowledge is socially constructed, authorized, and normatively deployed. Presidential speeches are approached not merely as rhetorical instruments but as epistemic practices that shape shared understanding and collective identity. Adopting a qualitative, philosophy-oriented methodology informed by a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and conceptual discourse analysis, the study analyzes official speeches to identify how collective knowledge is linguistically and philosophically framed. The findings reveal that collective knowledge is articulated through multiple forms, including experiential knowledge grounded in shared social experience, historical knowledge rooted in national memory, and institutional or expert-based knowledge that confers epistemic authority. These forms are strategically mobilized to legitimize political decisions, unify the audience, and guide collective action. From a social epistemological perspective, the study highlights significant tensions between epistemic authority and democratic inclusion. While appeals to collective knowledge foster cohesion and legitimacy, they also risk suppressing epistemic plurality and marginalizing dissenting perspectives. By situating presidential discourse within debates on collective intentionality, epistemic authority, and power, this research contributes to philosophical discussions on the ethical and political dimensions of collective knowing. It demonstrates the relevance of social epistemology for understanding how knowledge functions in contemporary political life.
