Abstract

Frederick Clark Prescott (1922) in his book entitled The Poetic Mind states that the values contained in poetry have good therapeutic elements for troubled souls. Poetry as a literary work is believed to have elements of healing for troubled souls. One of the healing methods is by using the medium of poetry, which is known as Psychopoetry or poetry therapy. This study aims to reveal the concept of love without end or the popular concept of we fall in love with people we can't have which is contained in the text of the Syair Surat Kirim Kepada Perempuan, which is analyzed using poetry therapy studies. There are two methods used in this study, namely the philological method and the qualitative descriptive method. The philological method needs to be carried out considering that the object of this research is classical Malay literary texts. After interpreting the object, data collection uses a qualitative descriptive method. After the data has been collected, an analysis of the data is carried out using descriptive analytic methods. The result of this study is that the elements of writing poetry as a therapy for healing a wounded soul are found in the SSKKP text. Apart from that, the SSKKP text also fulfills the crucial elements of using poetry therapy to heal wounded souls.

Abstract

This research examines the concept of the Epic Self in William Wordsworth's poem "Lines Written in Early Spring." The Epic concept predates the Romantic Era, but its meaning has evolved. While epic literature focuses on famous figures, the Romantic Era centres the author as the hero. This study utilizes the dialectical method, involving thorough readings of the poem and related sources. The analysis examines each stanza and line, linking them to illustrate the Epic Self. The dialectical method is suitable as it reveals the Epic Self by connecting the poem's content to the author's history. The research finds that the Epic Self emerges as a rejection of Reason's dogmas, prioritizing human emotions and freedom in daily life. An example is the line, "And 'tis my faith that every flower / Enjoys the air it breathes," suggesting that happiness can arise from any moment. This research aims to provide a foundation for understanding the Epic Self, offering an alternative perspective on non-popular works like "Lines Written in Early Spring."
