Abstract

This study delves into Sylvia Plath's "The Bell Jar," focusing on the protagonist Esther Greenwood's nuanced portrayal of mental illness. Through a qualitative approach, the research explores Esther's psychological journey, examining her struggles and resilience in the face of mental health challenges. The study employs various literary analysis techniques to dissect and interpret the novel's content, with the primary data source being Plath's prose itself. This approach provides a broader context and theoretical framework for understanding the novel's themes, blending literary analysis with psychological and sociological perspectives. The study pays particular attention to the depiction of 1950s psychiatric treatments, critically examining their inadequacies and limitations. Special focus is given to the portrayal of electroconvulsive therapy, a controversial treatment that plays a significant role in Esther's experiences. Findings underscore the critical importance of empathetic care and robust societal support in addressing mental health challenges. By delving into Esther's experiences, the research illuminates the profound impact of understanding, compassion, and appropriate treatment on individuals struggling with mental illness. Furthermore, this analysis reveals how Plath's work continues to resonate with contemporary readers, touching on timeless themes of identity, societal expectations, and the human psyche. The study argues that "The Bell Jar" serves as a poignant exploration of mental illness and a critique of societal norms and mental health treatment in mid-20th century America. This interdisciplinary approach appeals to a broad scholarly audience interested in literature, mental health, and social history, offering insights that bridge multiple fields of study.

Abstract

The Little Prince is a well-known children’s literary work that conveys deep philosophical messages through simple language. Understanding how meaning is expressed beyond literal words is important to reveal the emotional, cultural, and social values reflected in the story. This study aims to analyze the emotional, cultural, and social connotations found in The Little Prince using Leech’s (1981) theory of connotative meaning. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using document analysis. The data were obtained from selected expressions in the novel and analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña’s (2014) qualitative data analysis model, which includes data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results show that emotional connotations reveal feelings of love, regret, sadness, and attachment; cultural connotations highlight the contrast between children’s imaginative perspectives and adults’ logical thinking; and social connotations emphasize responsibility and meaningful relationships. In conclusion, connotative meaning plays an essential role in expressing the novel’s philosophical messages. These findings contribute to semantic studies and can support the teaching of linguistic and literary interpretation by helping students understand deeper meanings in literary texts.
