Abstract

Puisi bukan permainan petak umpat ketika ia memiliki makna tersirat. Puisi juga bukan status di media sosial ketika ia memiliki makna tersurat. Selain memperindah kata, melalui diksi konotasi dan denotasi dirasa akan cukup memadai dalam membaca hingga memaknai sebuah puisi. Tidak menutup kemungkinan ketika kedua makna dari konotasi dan denotasi bertemu hingga lahirlah sebuah makna terdalam atau boleh jadi akan melahirkan makna baru. Begitu juga dari satu buah puisi karya pengarang Indonesia, yakni Jawara karya Dody Kristianto, dan Amerika Serikat, yakni Butcher Shop karya Charles Simic. Kajian yang dibahas di dalam tulisan ini adalah puisi Jawara karya Dody Kristianto dan Butcher Shop karya Charles Simic. Kedua puisi ini tampak berbeda di dalam konten, bahasa, genre, dan usia. Akan tetapi, keduanya memiliki syarat akan kedua makna di atas, yakni denotasi dan konotasi. Studi pustaka menjadi metode yang digunakan di dalam tulisan ini. Hasilnya dari tulisan ini bahwa terdapat makna denotatif dan konotatif yang saling berkelindan untuk mencapai makna terdalam.

Abstract

This study examines the narrative structure of Alice Walker's “The Color Purple” through the lens of Greimas' actant model. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to apply the narrative structure with Greimas' actant model to enable a comprehensive analysis of how the main character, Celie, experiences a journey of transformation from oppression to personal freedom using Greimas' actant theory. With this, the focus of the problems that arise in this study are: (1) what are the actant schemes that can be found in the novel “The Color Purple?” (2) How does the actant Greimas describe the journey of transformation of the main character in the novel “The Color Purple?” By using descriptive qualitative research method. Data collection in this study focuses on the novel “The Color Purple” by Alice Walker as the main data source. For data analysis, qualitative analysis is used, the process of which is carried out through the stages of data analysis, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The dynamic interaction between actants reflects the systemic nature of trauma and how liberation is built through family relationships, faith, and love. By mapping Celie's journey through Greimas' actant model, the novel “The Color Purple” is not only a personal narrative, but also a structurally complex story of transformation. Each actant role develops along with Celie, reflecting how freedom and identity are achieved not through isolation, but through enduring relationships, personal growth, and ultimately overcoming oppression.
