Abstract

Human identity can play important role to determine the purpose of life. The absence of identity can be lost and cause conflict in both within individual the human being himself or with the people around him. Jojo Moyes’ romance novel “Me Before You” explores the theme of the people around him. This loss of human identity is represented in the romance novel Me Before You by Jojo Moyes. Therefore, this study aims to analyze more deeply the psychological problems of the main character in the novel that contribute to the loss of his identity and how the character subsequent effort to rediscover identity again. The research employs qualitative method by applying Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis theory, especially about the Oedipus complex. The study uncovers two psychological phases experienced by the main character through textual analysis data is obtained based on the analysis of sentences, phrases, and words in the novel. Me Before You novel presents two psychological phases experienced by the main character, namely the phase of identity loss and the phase of finding his identity again. The novel shows the impact of the identity loss of identity: leads to emotions of feeling pessimistic, useless, and experiencing changes in character. The process of rediscovering the main character's identity is rediscovered by the arrival of someone who is a subconscious true love and who is a person's true identity.   Unconsciously, the process of fulfilling the protagonist's primitive desires goes smoothly due to the superego’s balancing mechanism. This allows works well so that the ego is able to satisfy id's desires while maintaining self-safety through the projection of love for the mother with a figure who has a resemblance to her.

Abstract

An examination of the way femininity is represented in young adult literature, particularly characters such as the female demigods in “Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters,” is important to demonstrate how prevalent gender stereotypes can have a direct impact on nuanced representations. Cultural stories often stereotype women into set emotions or characteristics, such as scared or angry, in order to maintain the social order and to keep a male power structure (Ni, 2024). This paper applies narrative discourse analysis and Stuart Hall’s representation theory and uncovers the ways in which identity is constructed in these stories as the essays demonstrate how the conventional representations stand in the way of more nuanced characterizations of female characters (Kimsey, 2020). By centring the creative power at the junction of feeling and power, this research raises questions about depictions of emotion and their implications for perceptions of the feminine in the young reader. Finally, this article argues for richer and more complex plotlines, which lead to critical and thoughtful reflection of the course of female identity and agency in opposition to the established genre pattern.

Abstract

Women are frequently controlled and subjugated as a result of gender inequality, which drives them to seek independence.  In Madeline Miller’s novel Circe, the protagonist’s act of self-withdrawal represents an assertion of individual liberty in response to patriarchal oppression. This study examines how gender inequality shapes Circe’s decision to isolate herself and how her withdrawal becomes a form of resistance and self-empowerment, analyzed through the lens of liberal feminism as outlined by Rosemarie Tong. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method, using the novel Circe as the primary data source. The findings reveal that Circe experiences various forms of gender inequality, which drive her to withdraw and develop her own identity and abilities. Ultimately, this self-withdrawal enables her to achieve a sense of individual liberty and personal agency. In conclusion, the novel depicts self-withdrawal as a deliberate and empowering response to gender inequality, consistent with the components of liberal feminism.

Abstract

This research examines the representation of indigeneity in women's reproductivities in Sophie Mackintosh's Blue Ticket, focusing on how the patriarchal system controls women's bodies and identities. The novel depicts a dystopian society where women's reproductive fate is determined through a lottery system, reflecting the way state power shapes and marginalizes women's subjectivity. With a qualitative method and close reading approach, this study uses Simone de Beauvoir's existentialist feminism and Gayatri Spivak's postcolonial feminism to analyze the interrelationship between reproduction, indigeneity, and gender-based oppression. The research findings reveal that the main character, Calla, portrays resistance to a system that erases women's agency and authority over their bodies. Despite demonstrating an attempt at freedom, Calla must face the consequences of exclusion and violence. This representation shows that women's efforts to resist patriarchal structures are frequently undermined by the system that supports their dominance. This research concludes that Blue Ticket presents reproduction as a realm of conflict between identities shaped by the system and women's struggle to achieve an autonomous existence.
State reproduction through structural power and ideological continuity in Suzanne Collins' Mockingjay Janah, Miftahul; Haryanti, Rahayu Puji

Abstract

In Mockingjay, the fall of the Capitol gives way to a disturbing continuity of power, where the rhetoric of freedom masks familiar forms of control. While District 13 positions itself as the revolutionary alternative, its use of surveillance, propaganda, and authoritarian discipline reflects the very structures it claims to overthrow. This article argues that through Katniss Everdeen’s final act, Suzanne Collins exposes the cyclical nature of state power and the persistence of ideology in legitimizing domination. Drawing on Nicos Poulantzas’s theory of authoritarian statism and the state as a condensation of class struggle, the analysis reveals how the narrative critiques the reproduction of hierarchical structures under the guise of liberation. Rather than celebrating victory, Mockingjay asks whether the revolution truly dismantled power, or simply rebranded it.

Abstract

This study explores the portrayal of cultural displacement and efforts to preserve cultural identity in Li-Young Lee’s poem Persimmons using Michael Riffaterre’s Semiotics of Poetry. Cultural displacement—caused by language barriers, institutional isolation, and cultural misrepresentation—poses serious risks to identity continuity in multicultural societies. The poem serves as a powerful literary example of how immigrant experiences reflect both trauma and resistance. Using qualitative textual analysis, this study applies Riffaterre’s concept of matrix, model, variants, hypogram, and textual interpretants to uncover how the poem conceals deeper cultural meanings beneath language conflict and metaphor. Findings reveal that Persimmons portrays cultural displacement through linguistic confusion, memory loss, and institutional punishment, symbolized by the misinterpretation of the persimmon fruit. However, the poem also emphasizes the preservation of cultural identity through sensory memory, family traditions, and symbolic reclamation. The persimmon functions as a hypogram—a hidden sign of heritage—representing emotional and cultural continuity. This research contributes to literary semiotics and postcolonial discourse by demonstrating how poetic language can resist cultural erasure and affirm identity within multicultural contexts. Ultimately, the study shows that the poetry like Persimmons serves not only as a personal expression but as a powerful mode of cultural preservation and resilience.

Abstract

Characters in literature perform actions that influence stories in addition to communicating information. Scholars have yet to fully examine the speech act aspect of character interactions in F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby. In order to close this gap, this study looks at how lies and promises in The Great Gatsby serve as illocutionary acts that highlight important themes and disclose interpersonal dynamics. The analysis, which is based on Speech Act Theory (Austin and Searle), focusses on insincere assertives (lies) and commissives (promises) in a few dialogue exchanges, especially those involving Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan. The study explores how characters' verbal promises and lies propel the story and represent themes of delusion, idealism, treachery, and the American Dream through a qualitative analysis of these exchanges. The analysis shows that Daisy's broken promises and Gatsby's extravagant promises and made-up backstory are more than just empty rhetoric; they deliberately create illusions and reveal hidden power dynamics and emotional undertones in the relationships between the characters. Fitzgerald's criticism of illusion and disillusionment is ultimately highlighted by this pragmatic lens, which also demonstrates how crucial the speech acts of characters that promise and lie are to comprehending the novel's messages about trust, treachery, and the American Dream.
