Abstract

This study aim to reveal the attitude change that are reflected through the story character written by Anton Chekov entitled “Fat and Thin”. Anton Chekov with his high-level imaginative mind can use narration in criticizing human behavior, especially the vertical nature of Russian society which likes to serve itself in positions and titles which are also known as "bootlickers". Changes in attitudes like this have even become a dilemma almost shared by many people around the world. This literary criticism is then explored more deeply by using the attitude change approach in psychology from Carl Hovland supported by the balance Heider theory. The method used in this research is a descriptive qualitative method with data collection and analysis techniques in librarian study. The results of this research indicated that the reflection of attitude change through the behavior of the two friends who are called fat and thin in the story. The two of them are childhood friends who have not seen each other for a long time. The change in attitude was evident from Thin's attitude, who knew that Fat was his military superior with the rank of lieutenant general. Such a situation makes Thin's behavior change a form of balancing as a defense mechanism of conditions. Chekhov, through his clear naration and dialogues, displayed this behavior very strongly. There are several factors that cause this change in attitude including psychological internal factors in the form of mental discomfort and personal dissonance, as well as external factors that influence in the form of interactions, situations and targets. This story describes an inner relationship because an idealistic friendship changes in attitude due to the vertical relationship factor that places a person as a bootlicker.

Abstract

This research aims to reveal various rhetorical styles of world figures when delivering their orations/speeches in front of the public from a language style perspective. This research uses a figurative language approach as a theoretical concept. Figurative language is language that "symbolizes" a typical way of expressing thoughts and feelings in mental or verbal form. Abrams (2010) stated that figurative language is part of language style in the form of rhetoric. By using a qualitative descriptive approach, this research reveals several speeches by world figures such as Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy, Barack Obama, Nelson Mandela, and Soekarno. The results of this research showed that world figures apply a distinctive rhetorical style but can be traced using the styles of Anaphora, Parallelism, Hetorical Questions, Metaphor, Tricolon, Antithesis, Epistrophe, Pathos, Allusion, and Litotes.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between humans and nature in the art of wooden talempong in Nagari Rangking Luluih, Solok Regency. Humans and nature are two inseparable entities. The natural environment determines human culture. Likewise, humans can change the natural environment in their efforts to adapt and utilize resources. Art is one of the universal elements of culture whose creation can also come from nature. One example is the wooden talempong. Therefore, the problem raised in this study is how the background of the creation and repertoire in wooden talempong represent the relationship between humans and nature. The data collection methods used are direct observation, in-depth interviews, documentation and literature studies. This data is then analyzed using the cultural ecology approach by Julian Steward who explains that there is an interaction between culture and the environment that takes place through the adaptation process. The results show that wooden talempong was born from a ritual tradition of gratitude for the people of Nagari Rangking Luluih for the harvest and a good life. Furthermore, the repertoire in the wooden talempong beat tones often describes the harmony of humans and nature. From here it is clearly seen that wooden talempong is not only an art that represents beauty alone. Moreover, in Minangkabau society there is a philosophy of "alam takambang jadi guru" which shows how important the role of nature is in various aspects of life.
