Abstract

This study examines the symbolic meanings conveyed through visual metaphors in the 2022 animated film Luck. Utilizing Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotic theory, the research aims to identify and interpret the signs present within the movie. The study employs a qualitative research paradigm and a descriptive approach, collecting data through repeated viewings of the film and cataloging the identified signs as icons, indexes, or symbols per Peirce's triadic model. The analysis reveals a total of 16 signs, comprising 3 icons, 4 indexes, and 9 symbols, which are then subjected to semiotic analysis. The findings demonstrate that the iconic signs, such as the photograph of the protagonist Sam as a child, symbolize his past. Indexical signs, like the list of orphanages he resided in, indicate his nomadic upbringing. Symbolic representations, including the four-leaf clover and the leprechaun characters, signify cultural notions of luck and fortune. The pervasive use of the color green and imagery like ladybugs further reinforce the thematic exploration of luck and prosperity. Overall, the movie Luck employs a rich tapestry of visual symbols to delve into complex concepts like fate, perspective, and fortune, enhancing the narrative depth and enriching the viewing experience.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the use of speech acts in Ethel Cain's Strangers and Sun Bleached Flies from her acclaimed album Preacher's Daughter. This study employs a descriptive qualitative research design that focuses on the analysis of Searle's speech act classification—declaratives, representatives, directives, expressives, and commissives—to uncover how Cain conveys complex emotional narratives related to trauma, identity, and familial relationships. This research uses library research to collect data from the lyrics of two of Ethel Cain’s selected songs, Strangers and Sun Bleached Flies. The data analysis process aligns with typical approaches in speech act analysis within linguistics, particularly in contexts where John Searle's taxonomy is applied to literary or artistic works like song lyrics. The findings reveal that speech acts are very useful for deciphering the complex meaning of music lyrics and suggest that Cain's nuanced use of language not only enhances the emotional depth of her music but also invites listeners to engage with themes of vulnerability and resilience. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of contemporary songwriting as a form of expressive communication.

Abstract

Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist offers a powerful critique of institutional child abuse through its depiction of Victorian workhouses, yet how contemporary readers interpret this representation remains underexplored. This study investigates how six Indonesian readers with diverse backgrounds decode Dickens' social critique, applying Stuart Hall's reception theory to analyze their interpretive positions. Through semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis, we found that participants occupied three distinct positions: two demonstrated dominant-hegemonic readings, fully accepting Dickens' humanitarian critique; two adopted negotiated positions, translating Victorian concerns into contemporary child welfare frameworks; and two exhibited oppositional readings, questioning the text's representational authority while advancing alternative interpretations. These findings reveal that interpretive positions correlate with readers' prior knowledge, professional socialization, and cultural contexts rather than emerging randomly. The study demonstrates that classic literature functions not as a vessel for fixed meanings but as contested terrain where historical representations provoke varied contemporary responses. Our analysis contributes to reception studies by empirically demonstrating how readers' social positions shape their engagement with ethically charged literary content, with implications for understanding how canonical texts continue to inform debates about institutional responsibility and child protection.

Appropriate materials were considered to play an important role in improving students' English skills. Based on the learning need analysis, it was found that there are differences in English proficiency levels among students. Speaking and listening skills were considered the main skills that needed to be mastered because they were believed to support the English learning process more effectively. The most common problem faced by students was pronunciation errors. Analysis of target needs showed that students' learning styles are diverse, such as learning through reading, learning through videos or films, and learning in small groups. The main goals of students in learning English are related to future career aspirations and self-development. Efforts made by students to improve their English skills include memorizing English vocabulary, reading English texts, watching films, and listening to English music.

Abstract

Patriarchal culture remains a persistent social issue and is frequently represented in literary works as a system that shapes women’s identities, experiences, and social positions. This study aims to examine how patriarchal culture is represented in Khaled Hosseini’s A Thousand Splendid Suns through Roland Barthes’ semiotic framework. Employing a qualitative textual analysis design, the study uses the novel as its primary data source. The data consist of dialogues, narrative descriptions, and character interactions depicting patriarchal practices, which were collected through close reading, systematic note-taking, and textual categorization. Data were analyzed at three levels of signification denotation, connotation, and myth to uncover both explicit and ideological meanings embedded in the text. The findings reveal that patriarchal culture is constructed through four interconnected domains: household, sexuality, violence, and cultural institutions. At the denotative level, these domains depict women’s exclusion from decision-making, control over female sexuality, domestic abuse, and educational restrictions. At the connotative level, they signify unequal gender relations that privilege male authority and female subordination. At the mythical level, the novel naturalizes cultural beliefs that legitimize male dominance, female obedience, son preference, and the normalization of women’s suffering. The study concludes that A Thousand Splendid Suns represents patriarchy as a socially and ideologically constructed system sustained through interconnected cultural myths. By applying Barthes’ semiotic framework, the study demonstrates how the novel simultaneously exposes and critiques the ideological mechanisms that perpetuate gender inequality.
