Abstract

Literary criticisms state stable theories, while meanings nowadays push people to interpret out of merely theories. People focus on opinions, assumptions, and common discourses as this is age of The Death of Expertise as supported by Tom Nichols. The Balloon is Donald Barthelme’s short story that tells a balloon that suddenly appears in New York. No one really knows where it comes from or why it exists. Experts and governments are trying to get rid of it but none could do anything. People try to understand that by own understandings since it is open for meanings. This paper would like to indicate death of expertise on The Balloon. Through qualitative method on cultural studies, this paper emphasizes conditions of the balloon, incapability of experts, and responses of common people towards that. Barthelme asserts how everyone has own meanings to understand based on own experience. Theories matter, but more of them are needed to understand aspects of an event. Barthelme tends to show how an event could bring in flexible meanings through experience alongside with rigid definitions through analytical theories. Nichols underlines that experts approach through exact theories, but flexibility could only be found through experience.Keywords: Cultural Studies, Donald Barthelme, The Balloon, The Death of Expertise

Abstract

Literature is colored with gender studies that emphasize female struggle through social construction. The understandings widen from equalities between male and female to how woman should define her self-identity. Identity through gender is not static at all, but dynamic through its process as examined by Judith Butler through her concept of gender performativity. A Respectable Woman is Kate Chopin’s short story that tells Mrs. Baroda who is disturbed with the presence of her husband’s friend, Gouvernail, at her home. She is tempted by him but she realizes that and leaves home. She returns home and speaks to her husband, Gaston that she has made up her mind and be ready if his friend will stay over again. Then, how is gender performativity asserted on Kate Chopin’s A Respectable Woman? Through qualitative method on cultural studies, this writing underlines the wife’s firm state for not being tempted as her own self-definition. It becomes usual for a woman to fall to other man, but the wife thinks differently. She is aware of being tempted and she avoids it. Her identity is not defined by common ideas or dictated by male dominations. She is herself with her own determination by being so earnest. In conclusion, the wife’s resolution to step back, to think, and to return to her husband is her approach to define her identity. This is in line with gender performativity that is stated in line with Chopin’s focus on female subjectivity.

Abstract

Today, the discourse of feminism pays more attention to correlations between women, motherhood, and society rather than trying to make women equal to men. Julia Kristeva explains maternal passion as motherhood’s characteristic that relates to the biological state of the sacred womb and the sociological aspect of having children. Mbah Benguk in Y. B. Mangunwijaya’s work tells about a grandmother who takes care of her two disabled grandchildren left by their mother. Mangunwijaya does not attack feminism, yet he underlines the crucial role of the mother. The question is; how is maternal passion reflected in Y. B. Mangunwijaya’s Mbah Benguk? Using the qualitative method, cultural concepts are used to explain the relations between Mangunwijaya’s story and Kristeva’s perspectives. Tensions between biological concepts of woman and sociological ideas of the mother are contradicted. Being a mother shows more passion than emotion as seen in children’s language as a reflection of their mother. Motherhood is the sublimation of a woman’s desire for her children. In conclusion, the story of Mangunwijaya is enriched through Kristeva’s perspective, especially in how a woman should be present as the maternal passion of the womb and the caregiver to her children.
