Abstract

This research examines Machiavellianism in Eka Kurniawan’s novel Lelaki Harimau (Man Tiger), investigating how characters navigate power dynamics and ethical dilemmas in rural Indonesia. Drawing on Niccolò Machiavelli’s The Prince (1532), the study analyzes how characters employ cunning, manipulation, and strategic thinking to achieve personal goals. Utilizing textual, thematic, and interpretative analysis, the study dissects the novel’s narrative structure, character development, and thematic concerns related to Machiavellianism. Key passages reveal that characters, notably Margio, exemplify Machiavellian traits through concealing intentions, manipulating perceptions, and rationalizing morally ambiguous actions. The novel portrays a complex interplay of power dynamics, personal ambition, and cultural influences, shedding light on human capacity for deception and pursuit of power. This research deepens understanding of Machiavellianism in Southeast Asian literature, illuminating its role in exploring universal themes of power, morality, and human nature within an Indonesian context. By contextualizing Machiavellian behavior, the study enriches discussions on literature’s reflection of societal norms and ethical dilemmas, offering a nuanced perspective on Kurniawan’s portrayal of complex moral landscapes in contemporary fiction.

Abstract

This study examines the symbolic meanings of colors in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling, utilizing archetypal criticism and Carl Jung's theory of archetypal symbols. Through a qualitative analysis, the research explores how color functions as a tool for conveying deep thematic elements, enhancing the narrative, and reflecting the emotional and psychological states of the characters. Colors such as red, gold, green, black, white, and blue are shown to symbolize various abstract concepts, including friendship, bravery, immortality, power, love, and death. For instance, red and gold are associated with Gryffindor House values like courage and friendship, while green symbolizes both dark power and the protective love of Harry’s mother. Black is linked to death and darkness, and white signifies purity and sacrifice. By investigating these symbolic associations, the study reveals how Rowling employs color as a narrative device to enrich the reader's understanding of the characters' journeys and the larger themes of good versus evil, sacrifice, and the pursuit of truth. This research highlights the significance of color symbolism as an integral part of the storytelling in the Harry Potter series, providing deeper insights into the novel's thematic layers and the psychological motivations of its characters.

Abstract

Dystopia paints a grim portrayal of the future, spotlighting threats to individual freedom, human rights, and core human values. Putu Wijaya's short story Protes employs the dystopian concept to provoke critical examination of society's trajectory and to caution against the potential adverse outcomes of unsustainable policies or behaviors. This study adopts a literary sociology approach, an interdisciplinary method blending sociological principles with literary analysis to unravel the social significance embedded within the text. Supported by pertinent concepts and theories, the research employs qualitative methods, generating descriptive data from the written words of the short story Protes, which serve as the primary data source. The researchers themselves serve as the research instruments. Data collection employs a tabulation system structured around discussion points pertaining to dystopian aspects. Analysis involves thorough reading and comprehension of the text, selection and categorization of relevant data, identification of key problem areas, description of observations based on the data, compilation of a research report, and ultimately, drawing conclusions. The findings reveal that Protes encompasses dystopian elements manifested in the forms of poverty, social conflict, and environmental degradation.

Abstract

This article analyzes the complex representation of violence and trauma in Kathleen Glasgow’s Girl in Pieces, focusing on the protagonist Charlie Davis. Through Johan Galtung’s violence typology—direct, structural, and symbolic—the study reveals how Glasgow constructs an emotionally resonant narrative of trauma that is deeply rooted in systemic and interpersonal failures. Charlie’s self-harm, institutional neglect, and internalized shame illustrate how violence is experienced not only through physical abuse but also through social and cultural mechanisms. The research applies a sociological approach to literature and trauma theory, situating the novel within the broader context of Young Adult (YA) fiction that foregrounds psychological suffering. This approach reveals that Girl in Pieces is not merely a coming-of-age story but a social critique of how institutions respond to marginalized female trauma. Using qualitative content analysis, the article contributes to discussions in trauma-informed literary pedagogy and young adult mental health literature. Findings suggest that literature, when interpreted through a sociological and trauma-sensitive lens, holds critical potential for reshaping understandings of mental illness, recovery, and gendered pain. The study supports the integration of trauma narratives into educational spaces as a means to foster empathy, awareness, and policy reform around youth mental health.

Abstract

This study examines the rigid social structures of nineteenth-century England as depicted in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. The research investigates how inflexible social hierarchies, characterized by distinct class stratifications—upper, middle, and lower classes—constrained individual agency, particularly among women. The analysis focuses on four pivotal dimensions: marriage as a social transaction, social hierarchy and etiquette, land and wealth ownership, and the manifestations of prejudice and discrimination. Despite extensive scholarship on Austen's social critique, limited attention has been paid to the interaction between class stratification and individual agency within the specific context of nineteenth-century English property relations. Employing a Marxist literary framework, this research elucidates how material conditions fundamentally shaped character motivations, interpersonal dynamics, and socioeconomic opportunities. Through a qualitative analysis of dialogue, narration, and descriptive elements within the novel, the findings demonstrate how stringent social norms limited individual autonomy and engendered pervasive conflict between personal desires and societal imperatives. This study contributes to existing scholarship by revealing how Austen's narrative simultaneously critiques systemic inequality while exposing the psychological constraints imposed on middle-class women within a patriarchal property system. Ultimately, this study highlights Austen's sophisticated critique of the systemic injustices inherent in the nineteenth-century British class system, while underscoring the enduring relevance of these themes within contemporary social contexts.
