Abstract

This study analyzes the news narrative “Aceh Tak Masuk Daerah Rawan Pilkada Serentak, Lima Provinsi Memiliki Potensi Tinggi” using Van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) model to explore Aceh’s portrayal as a role model of democratic success. The research aims to uncover how this narrative influences perceptions of Aceh’s stability among local and national audiences, particularly in contrast to its historical association with conflict. This study adopts a qualitative approach, employing Van Dijk’s CDA framework, which consists of three dimensions: textual analysis, social cognition, and sociopolitical context. The data were collected through a textual analysis of media discourse and audience surveys involving 47 respondents (37 from Aceh and 10 from outside Aceh). The textual analysis focuses on the structural composition of the news, while the audience survey examines how different groups perceive the narrative. The results indicate that 72.73% of local respondents express pride in Aceh’s depiction as a safe and stable region, yet 43.24% remain neutral about its relevance to current realities. Among national respondents, 100% perceive the narrative positively, with 50% strongly agreeing that Aceh serves as a model for democratic management. These findings demonstrate that media discourse effectively challenges stereotypes and promotes a positive image of Aceh, particularly to national audiences. However, local acceptance requires narratives grounded in authentic experiences. This study contributes to discourse analysis by showing how positive discourse can transform public perception, highlighting its potential to promote post-conflict regions as examples of democratic success.

Abstract

Integral Human Development cannot be separated from the lives of people as every human being is dynamic and is always developing both internally and externally. The study of integral development makes a major contribution to improving the quality of life for individuals and groups so that everyone can anticipate what needs to be done. The entire research is conducted using a qualitative descriptive research method with a discourse analysis approach and supported by Integral Human Development theories tied to psychology of literature with a thought that personality development is related to the existences of the characters in the novel and is a discussion point in psychology of literature. Integral Human Development (IHD) or Whole Human Development is a concept that emphasizes the development of humans as a whole covering physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual aspects so that humans can achieve a balance between personal growth and social contribution. The novel is chosen as the research object as the novel highlights talks much of the personality progress of the characters in fighting for their rights. Within the internal human development conceptual framework supported by the theory of psychology of literature, there are four steps to improve the quality of life, which become the subject of the research. The results of the analysis show that the novel provides an important lesson that success can be obtained through the implementation of Integral Human Development which in the novel is manifested in the forms of social awareness, hard work, tolerance, and discipline.

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

Poetry, as a form of literary expression, plays a significant role in conveying complex emotions and abstract ideas through imaginative language. This study aims to analyze the use of figurative speech in Helena Natasha’s poetry collection Dreams Spelled in Poetry, which explores themes of dreams, identity, and personal aspirations. The research is significant in providing a deeper understanding of how figurative language contributes to meaning-making and emotional expression in contemporary poetry. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach as proposed. The data were collected through documentation techniques focusing on poetic lines containing figurative expressions. The analysis is based on theory of figurative speech, which classifies twelve types of figurative language. The data were analyzed using the interactive model, including data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that 402 instances of figurative language were identified, with metaphor (68%) and personification (14%) as the most dominant types. These results indicate that Helena Natasha predominantly employs metaphorical and humanizing expressions to convey emotional depth and abstract meaning. The study concludes that figurative language plays a central role in enhancing the aesthetic and interpretative value of poetry.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the concept of moral responsibility in the moral philosophy of Immanuel Kant and its relevance to teacher professional ethics. Kant’s ethical theory emphasizes that the moral value of an action is determined by intention and adherence to duty rather than consequences. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using library research. The data sources include Kant’s primary philosophical texts and relevant literature on educational ethics. Data are collected through document analysis and analyzed using interpretative and thematic analysis to identify key ethical principles and their application in teaching practice. The findings show that the categorical imperative encourages teachers to treat students as ends in themselves, promoting fairness, respect, and integrity in classroom interactions. Teachers are positioned as moral agents responsible not only for knowledge transmission but also for students’ character development and dignity. However, challenges such as administrative pressures, curriculum demands, and social changes may hinder the consistent application of Kantian ethics in practice.mIn conclusion, integrating Kant’s moral philosophy into teacher professionalism supports a more humanistic and morally grounded educational environment, while highlighting the need for reflective practice and institutional support.

Abstract

This study aimed to implement independent reading as a form of critical practice through the lens of literary theory and criticism among 30 eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Langsa. The research sought to introduce independent reading not merely as a leisure activity but as a reflective and critical engagement with texts. Employing a qualitative case study design grounded in reader-response theory, the study examined a group of students, a reading program, and a classroom context where independent reading was practiced as critical literacy. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis, including students’ reading responses and assessment results. The findings indicate a measurable improvement in students’ reading performance, with pretest scores ranging from 45–80 (M = 61) and posttest scores ranging from 50–85 (M = 69). More importantly, the integration of literary theory within independent reading encouraged students to engage with texts from multiple perspectives, consider cultural contexts, and develop empathetic and interpretive awareness. These outcomes suggest that independent reading, when supported by literary theory and guided reflection, can function as an effective pedagogical strategy for fostering critical literacy in EFL classrooms. The study contributes theoretically by positioning independent reading as a critical-literary practice and pedagogically by demonstrating its potential to enhance students’ interpretive competence and engagement with literary texts.
