Abstract

This paper examines Alice Walker's literary contributions and activism through intersectional analysis in the novel The Color Purple. As a black female writer born and raised in a racist and patriarchal society, Walker uses her works to explore the oppression based on race, gender, and social class experienced by African-American women. Through the theoretical lens of black feminism and womanism, this paper examines how The Color Purple portrays the transformation of the main character, Celie, from a state of oppression to self-empowerment through female solidarity and economic empowerment. Home and business ownership in the novel become important symbols that mark Celie's social, spiritual, and economic transformation. By presenting the voices of black women who have been marginalized, Walker not only writes literary works but also engages in social criticism and fosters a discourse of intersectional justice. This work demonstrates that literature can serve as a tool of liberation and resistance, as well as a space for articulating the collective experiences of oppressed women. Through this analysis, this paper highlights Alice Walker's significant role in the realm of literature and contemporary feminist thought

Abstract

This study aims to critically examine Joseph Conrad’s Lord Jim through the lens of Edward Said’s theory of Orientalism, focusing on how the novel represents the East as subordinate to Western ideological and moral authority. Employing a qualitative literary analysis, this research explores narrative structure, characterization, and setting to reveal how the novel systematically marginalizes Eastern voices and constructs the East as a passive backdrop for the psychological and moral journey of the Western protagonist, Jim. Key findings show that the Indigenous characters in Patusan are denied subjectivity and interiority, their perspectives filtered entirely through the Western narrator, Marlow. The narrative elevates Jim to a position of moral superiority and leadership, reinforcing colonial myths of the “white savior” and the supposed dependency of Eastern societies on Western governance. The absence of Eastern perspectives in the novel underscores the epistemological dominance of the West, making Lord Jim not a true intercultural dialogue, but a monologue that serves Western self-definition. The study concludes that Conrad’s novel, despite its literary complexity, perpetuates Orientalist discourse by silencing the East and reinforcing hierarchical binaries between the West and the non-West. Future research is encouraged to compare such colonial narratives with postcolonial works that reclaim indigenous voices.

Abstract

This research examines the Cold War's socio-political conflicts and global impacts as depicted in The Partisan, a historical espionage novel by Patrick Worrall. Using Laurenson and Swingewood's theory of literary sociology, the study explores the novel's portrayal of ideological and military tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union, focusing on the broader implications of these conflicts on modern political, social, and technological systems. Through close textual analysis, the research identifies themes of hegemony, ideological rivalry, and power struggles in the novel, reflecting the Cold War's influence on bloc countries. The study also highlights significant socio-political conflicts, including the arms race, the Berlin Wall crisis, and Baltic resistance, which illustrate the pervasive influence of Cold War ideologies on geopolitical landscapes. The findings underscore the Cold War's role in shaping contemporary societal structures, urban planning, technological advancements, and economic policies. By contextualizing The Partisan within historical events, this research contributes to understanding how literature reflects and critiques the long-term effects of Cold War tensions on global civilization, ultimately revealing the inseparability of historical conflicts from present-day socio-political realities.

Abstract

This research was conducted with the aim of analyzing the power of love that made Maggie continue to love Bryce until the end of her life. Even though, Bryce had passed away and chose to live alone without seeking new love. This study used qualitative research methods. The source of the data is The Wish. The supporting data are taken from a book Triangular Theory of love. The researcher sorts out data related to the power of love in the main character's relationship. Then the data are analyzed based on Robert Sternberg's theory. The results of this study show that Maggie and Bryce's relationship is included in the consummate love type because it contains three love components of the triangular theory of love: intimacy, passion, and commitment/decision. The three components of love combined create the strength of a relationship that keeps Maggie going, including love itself, memories created, and the promises made.
