Abstract

Movie posters are means of media promotion for an upcoming movie to persuade the moviegoers attending the cinema or to spread awareness of the near future release. In general, movie posters are embedded with initial information about the movie, i.e., the title, a short tagline, actors and actresses, production house, producers, and the team beyond its production. The information in a movie poster can be conveyed in various signs which are classified into two: linguistic and non-linguistic signs. This research aims to identify linguistic and non-linguistic signs and to analyze denotative and connotative meaning the signs found on the poster of Surau dan Silek, the debut full-length movie by Arief Malinmudo, by applying Barthes’ order of signification theory. The data are in the form of symbols found on the selected poster. This research is descriptive qualitative research. The result shows that the symbols convey numerous messages in explicit and implicitways, including information about the premise of the movie, cultural values and cultural references embedded to the story, its production detail, the actors and actresses, the characters, settings, and the moral lesson from the movie.

Abstract

Foreign languages in Indonesia are often taught as supporting subjects, with English being the most common. German has also been introduced in some schools, including SMA YARI Padang. However, German lessons at this school have been discontinued over the last two years due to a lack of teaching staff. This study examined the use of German children's literature to enhance foreign language literacy and character development. A case study approach involved storytelling, interactive quizzes, observation, and mentoring. The storybook Ginting und Ganteng was chosen as a learning material because it was enjoyable and engaging for students to read and learn from. The results showed that children's literature helped students remember basic German vocabulary, learn new words in context, and better understand the story that was read. Furthermore, the story encouraged students to reflect on positive values such as honesty, kindness, and respect. These findings suggest that children's literature can be an effective medium for learning German while supporting character education. This study demonstrates that literary texts can offer meaningful language learning experiences, even in schools with limited resources.

Abstract

Mastering a foreign language requires not only linguistic skills but also the development of intercultural competence. This study aims to analyze the use of the German children's novel entitled Emil und die Detektive by Erich Kästner as a medium for developing students' intercultural competence in German language learning in Indonesia. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with thematic analysis of literary works. Data in the form of narratives, dialogues, and character actions were collected through listening and note-taking, then analyzed using literary analysis with reference to Michael Byram's Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) framework. Data validity was strengthened through triangulation of sources and theories. The results of the study indicate that the novel Emil und die Detektive embodies values of intercultural understanding, such as independence, solidarity, honesty, vigilance, and equal relations between children and adults. These values have the potential to be integrated into German language learning through discussion activities, interpretive writing, and literary appreciation. Therefore, language learning is not only oriented towards linguistic mastery but also contributes to the development of empathy, interpretation skills, cross-cultural interaction, and critical cultural awareness in line with Byram's ICC model.

Abstract

This study explores the construction of meaning through verbal and non-verbal signs in the Dior Sauvage advertisement featuring Johnny Depp. The research is grounded in Roland Barthes’ semiotic framework, which examines meaning at the levels of denotation, connotation, and myth. The study addresses how linguistic and visual elements within the advertisement construct and reinforce representations of masculinity. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the data were collected from selected scenes focusing on verbal signs, such as brand naming and lexical choices, as well as non-verbal signs, including color, setting, costume, and body language. The findings reveal that the advertisement constructs masculinity through signs associated with strength, mystery, freedom, and independence. At the mythological level, the advertisement reinforces an ideological representation of ideal masculinity as dominant, emotionally restrained, and deeply connected to nature. The study concludes that meaning in advertising is not naturally inherent but socially and culturally produced through interconnected systems of signs that shape audience perceptions and ideological understanding.
