Abstract

The analysis combines two stories, The Short Happy Life of Conat by Mochtar Lubis and The Garden Party by Katherine Mansfield. The aim of this analysis is to examine inequality or class distinction and exploitation, and to explore the theme of alienation between the main characters of both stories. Using Marxist theory, this analysis highlights social and economic philosophy and relates it to the main characters, showing how they navigate their economic conditions, whether upper class or lower class. Through a Marxist lens, the study examines how Conat and Laura experience different forms of alienation as a result of their socio-economic conditions. Conat, a trishaw driver, faces alienation from both the product of his labor and the labor process itself, reflecting Karl Marx's theories of alienation in a capitalist society. Laura, on the other hand, experiences a form of alienation from herself, where her family's capitalistic priorities overshadow empathy and human connection. Despite their different contexts and backgrounds, both characters illustrate the pervasive impact of alienation within their respective societies. Keywords: alienation, exploitation, Karx Marx, Marxist theory, social inequality

Abstract

Women often face stereotypes of being nurturing or empathetic due to their historical roles as caregivers, leading to unfair judgments based on emotions compared to men's rationality. Because of this situation Simone de Beauvoir, a French philosopher, later criticized gender inequality in her writing "The Second Sex”. This paper delves into the phenomenon of slavery endured by women and children during the Victorian era, as depicted in Anna Sewell`s "Black Beauty". By contextualizing the characters' experiences within historical realities, this study contributes to a broader comprehension of the representation of gender oppression and woman slavery in that book. Using Stuart Hall's representation theory, it analyzes how societal norms and power dynamics during Queen Victoria's reign shape the portrayal of female characters. Hall's theory highlights that representations are constructed through cultural and historical contexts, not direct reflections of reality. Ultimately, the analysis shows that "Black Beauty" effectively portrays the harsh realities of slavery, especially for women and children, making it a significant social critique of its time.

Abstract

This study explores the psychological struggles of Mia Thermopolis in The Princess Diaries using Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic theory. The analysis focuses on Mia’s anxiety as she transitions from an ordinary teenager to the heir of the Genovian throne. Freud’s model of the id, ego, and superego is used to understand the conflict between Mia’s personal desires and societal expectations. Her id craves a normal teenage life, while her superego demands that she fulfill her royal duties. The ego attempts to balance these opposing forces, leading to intense anxiety and self-doubt. Furthermore, the study examines Mia’s use of defense mechanisms such as repression and sublimation to cope with her psychological distress. Through a qualitative approach, this research highlights how unresolved inner conflicts shape Mia’s character development, offering a deeper understanding of anxiety in young adult literature

Abstract

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe is a well-known novel, that tells the story of four children who found a magical world of Narnia through a wardrobe. It is also known that this novel is an allegory to the story of Jesus Christ. However, this study aims to apply Stuart Hall's representation theory to examine how an allegory of a utopian world is portrayed in C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. To demonstrate the contrast between utopia and dystopia, symbols from the narrative are analyzed, including Aslan, the White Witch, the wardrobe, the Pevensie siblings, and the transition from winter to spring. Lewis uses these symbols to create his conceptual universe based on morality, justice, and the possibility of redemption in the face of tyranny. In contrast to the White Witch's oppressive control over the dystopian Narnia she governs, Aslan embodies selfless love and leadership. By providing a bridge between the actual world and the Narnia imagination, the wardrobe highlights the ideas of bravery and transformation for the viewer. These issues make it possible to comprehend how The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe both perform a Christian allegory and provide a broad representation of an ideal society that can be established via selflessness, solidarity, and moral self-control.

Abstract

This research analyzes the symbols of hopelessness in Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, focusing on the experiences of the Congolese under Belgian colonial rule. Using textual analysis grounded in Abram’s theory of symbols, the study examines how specific symbols—such as the iron collar, rifles, ivory, and the Congo River—embody the powerlessness, oppression, and suffering of the indigenous population. Thematic analysis reveals how these symbols represent the greed, destruction, and moral decay at the heart of colonialism. The iron collar symbolizes physical and psychological restraint, while the rifles signify the violence that enforces colonial dominance. Ivory represents the exploitation and greed driving colonialism, reducing both people and resources to commodities for profit. The Congo River functions as a path to both exploitation and despair for the Congolese, emphasizing the cyclical nature of their suffering. The findings highlight the stark contrast between the wealth of the colonizers and the degradation of the colonized, underscoring the pervasive hopelessness faced by the Congolese. This research contributes to postcolonial literary studies by offering a deeper understanding of the symbolic dimensions of Heart of Darkness and their broader implications for understanding colonial oppression, providing new insights into the moral and psychological impacts of imperialism.

Abstract

This study employs Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to analyze the characteristics of Lady Christian Nimmo in Kate Foster's The Maiden to identify the levels in Maslow's pyramid that the main character most and least fulfills, as well as how those fulfillments influence the main character's round characteristics. The qualitative descriptive approach was used to collect the data for this study, and the results were obtained by applying close reading. According to this study, the female main character's character development is also impacted by the connections between the five levels of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. This study shows that even when the need for security is met, it does not ensure that the subsequent needs—love and belonging—are also met. Lady Christian's experience, in which she receives security but not love and belonging, impacts her self-esteem and ultimately prevents her from reaching self-actualization. It will afterward emphasize certain characteristics of the character development that the story's female lead has gone through, namely noble, intimate, free-spirited, brave, confident, and vulnerable.
