Abstract

Social media, especially Instagram, plays a crucial role in digital tourism promotion by serving as a medium for cultural expression. Through visual and textual content, these platforms play a crucial role in influencing audience perceptions of cultural values, especially in tourism campaigns such as Wonderful Indonesia. This study examined the use of Charles Sanders Peirce’s semiotic theory of icon, index, and symbol in analyzing Balinese cultural representations featured in the Wonderful Indonesia Instagram advertisements. The study aims to identify sign types and the sign meaning. Using a qualitative descriptive method, five cultural themes Kuningan Day, Kecak Dance, Legong Dance, Melukat, and the Pelebon Ceremony were analyzed through textual and visual content from posts published between 2023 and 2024. The findings revealed that a total of 62 signs were identified, consisting of approximately 32 symbolic signs, 17 indexical signs, and 15 iconic signs. Symbolic signs appear consistently, reflecting their role in conveying Balinese values, rituals, and spirituality. Indexical signs refer to direct cultural elements, while iconic signs represent visual resemblance. Then focused on the sign meanings in each cultural element to gain a deeper understanding of the values, rituals, and spiritual significance conveyed through the advertisements.

Abstract

The pandemic negatively impacted all aspects of human life, including tourism, which was even the worst affected, especially in Bali. This causes the legitimacy of the grand narrative of tourism to be delegitimized. This study aims to propose a paralogical idea, i.e. to build a mini-narrative as an innovation to overcome the fading legitimacy of tourism due to the pandemic. The deconstructive qualitative method is applied with heuristic and hermeneutic reading methods. Data were taken from texts contained in print media and non-print media employing observation, recording, and documentation, then analysed according to the research design by applying the theory of postmodernism. The results of the analysis show that the four forms of mini-narrative which are representing the characteristic of postmodernism namely appreciating nature, rising marginal, lessening idolization, and developing consciousness can be adopted as the concept of innovation in overcoming the fading legitimacy of tourism in the post-pandemic era.

Abstract

Stylistic speech and thought presentation play crucial roles in shaping characters and enriching readers' experiences in children’s storybooks. This study delved into the depiction of speech and thought in the "Frozen" Storybook, an adaptation of Disney's 2013 film. Employing a non-participant descriptive qualitative methodology, the research analyzes internet-accessible data, employing the framework proposed by Leech and Short (2007), categorizing speech and thought into ten distinct categories. The analysis uncovers eight presentation types across twenty-two instances, with speech representation occurring twelve times and thought representation ten times. Predominant categories include IS (Indirect Speech), FIT (Free Indirect Thought), and NRTA (Narrative Report of Thought and Action), each appearing four times. Additionally, FDS (Free Direct Speech), DS (Direct Speech), FIS (Free Indirect Speech), and IT (Indirect Thought) occur three or two times, while NRSA (Narrative Report of Speech Act) occurs once. Notably, DT (Direct Thought) and FDT (Free Direct Thought) are absent. Analyzing speech and thought presentation in children’s storybooks yields insights into characters' communication and cognition, aiding readers, particularly children, in understanding motivations, emotions, and personalities. Furthermore, it fosters language development and enhances comprehension skills by exposing young readers to diverse presentation forms. Additionally, it contributes to literary analysis by elucidating authors' stylistic choices and their storytelling impacts. Ultimately, examining speech and thought presentation enhances both reading experiences and scholarly discourse on children’s literature.

Abstract

This study examines the intersemiotic translation of The Book of Esther into Balinese paintings in the Cheerful Good News collection published by the Indonesian Bible Society (2007). Using a qualitative case study, it analyzes how biblical narratives are reinterpreted through Balinese visual aesthetics using strategies of reduction, addition, focalization, integration, and symbolic adaptation. Each artwork is explored for textual fidelity, cultural and symbolic localization, and multimodal construction. The study highlights how simplification, substitution, and narrative emphasis reframe themes like courage, justice, and divine providence. While some narrative elements are condensed or altered, theological meanings are retained through symbolic codes and emotional framing. Rather than one-to-one equivalence, the process reflects interpretive transformation based on cultural and semiotic norms. The article contributes to translation studies and visual anthropology by applying intersemiotic frameworks within Southeast Asia, demonstrating how sacred texts are visually reimagined through local idioms rooted in religious symbolism and aesthetic tradition.

Abstract

The spread of radicalism has ruined the social, cultural, economic, and harmony between religious believers in Bali. The bombings in Bali on 2002 and 2005, were carried out by people who were exposed to radical understandings, and their acts not only killed innocent people but also destroyed harmonious inter-ethnic relationship in Bali. This article analyzes the form of empowering social capital, as a model for preventing radical understanding to create social harmony in Bali. Data is collected with religious leaders and communities through observations, interviews and documents related to the development of radicalism, terrorism and intolerance in Bali. Data is analyzed qualitatively and examined using social practice theory. The results show social capital in increasing solidarity in terms of diversity, social capital in improving social relations, and social capital in increasing spiritual value. These forms of social capital can be used as models in preventing radicalism in Bali.
