Abstract

This research aims to compare and contrast the gender inequality concerns in Alice Walker's "The Color Purple" and Nh. Dini "Namaku Hiroko." Using a comparative literature method, this research examines the contrasts and similarities in the author's descriptions of gender inequality concerns faced by the major characters in the two novels. The qualitative descriptive analysis approach is used in this investigation. There are parallels in the subject of gender equality for women who are deemed second-class citizens who are sexually and economically objectified and confined by patriarchal society and culture. The distinction between the two novels is that "The Color Purple" exposes the State of American culture that discredits black people, whereas "My Name is Hiroko" depicts women's economic and sexual desires. Finally, we can observe how the authors' cultural backgrounds may impact the literary works they produce since the writers will write about the socio-cultural situations they are experiencing.

Abstract

This study examines the existence of women from the main character in novel using the feminism theory from Simone de Beauvoir. This study aims to identify the depiction of the main character and analyze the existence of women in the novel The Queen's Gambit by Walter Tevis. The data used is documentation using note-taking techniques and content analysis. The results of this study: (1) Women's representation in chess was often underestimated in the 1950-1960s era. (2) Discrimination against women cannot be avoided so that they do not get equal opportunities in the world of sports. (3) Beth, as the main character, is one of the pioneers in rejecting discriminatory treatment in sports, especially chess. (4) The main character describes women's existence through tenacity, belief, intelligence, attitude, and expressions of their defense. This research suggests that the existence of women can be fought for in sports, especially chess.

Abstract

Egri's three-dimensional theory (1923) was employed to examine the multifaceted aspects of Catherine Danielle Clark, the main character in Delia Owens' novel "Where the Crawdads Sing." This qualitative study utilized a narrative approach to gather and analyze data through inductive and deductive techniques. The findings revealed several three-dimensional aspects of Catherine Danielle Clark. Physically, she possessed beauty, long black hair, and a well-proportioned body with a deep-tanned complexion, which improved as she matured. Socially, she hailed from a lower-class American family, held various jobs as a seafood seller, book writer, and poet, and experienced discrimination and singledom. Her hobbies included reading books and collecting organisms from the marsh. Psychologically, she exhibited introversion, insecurity, sensitivity, irritability, selfishness, anxiety, and a reluctance to forgive. However, she also displayed independence, optimism, and a determined fighting spirit for survival, showcasing remarkable talent in painting and writing. Overall, the study found that the psychological dimension was more pronounced than the physiological and social dimensions. Keywords: main character, physiological dimension, psychological dimension, sociological dimension, three-dimensional aspects
