Abstract

Representations of womanhood and patriarchy are presented in the novel Tarian Bumi by Oka Rusmini. Stuart Hall's representation theory is used as a theoretical framework. This research explores female figures who experience gender injustice and how patriarchal domination is deeply rooted in Balinese society. By analyzing the female characters, this article finds that women in Tarian Bumi often face various forms of gender injustice. Women experience limited freedom and life choices, derogatory judgments based on caste and physical appearance, and the burden of traditional gender roles that require them to sacrifice personal well-being to meet social expectations. Rigid social norms and sanctions for breaking norms strengthen patriarchal domination, making women who try to violate these norms get severe social sanctions. This article reveals how the novel provides an overview of social realities experienced by Balinese women, criticizing and challenging unfair patriarchal norms. Tarian Bumi exposes oppressive social structures and fights for gender justice in society. This article contributes to discussions about gender representation in literature and the importance of literature as a tool for social change. Keywords: patriarchy, representation, womanhood

Abstract

This research explores the role of the heroine in preserving Balinese cultural identity, focusing on the character of Luh Ayu Manik Mas from the children's story, "At War with the Spirit World." By employing Roland Barthes's mythological analysis, we delve into the denotative and connotative meanings embedded within the narrative. Denotatively, the heroine is portrayed as an independent and strong figure, essential for cultural continuity. She actively engages in preserving Balinese traditions, such as participating in water rituals and protecting the environment. Connotatively, the heroine embodies qualities of bravery, sacrifice, and a deep connection to Balinese cultural values. Her actions highlight the significance of environmental sustainability and the preservation of cultural heritage in the face of modern challenges. By analyzing the character of Luh Ayu Manik Mas, this research demonstrates how literature can contribute to the maintenance of cultural identity. The heroine's journey serves as a powerful tool for transmitting cultural values and inspiring future generations to embrace and preserve Balinese traditions.
