Abstract

In 2014, Rupi Kaur published Milk & Honey, a collection of poetry and prose exploring the female experience that originally appeared on social media, to widespread success. Insta-poetry, poetry disseminated through the social media platform Instagram, has since become a highly popular modern literary form, continuing to gain popularity since the day it was first published in book form. This research examined the phenomenon of Insta-poetry as a popular product with a case study of Milk & Honey, exploring the reasons Kaur's first self-published work was so popular and the contestations that drove Milk & Honey to become a popular Insta-poetry product. Foucault’s subject-power theory and Aeron Davis’ production were employed to retrieve the findings. Furthermore, a descriptive-qualitative method was applied in conducting and analyzing the data. It was found that Kaur utilized Insta-poetry to challenge social norms and empower women, trauma, and relationships. Consequently, Kaur decided to self-publish her Insta-poetry in a book even though it was considered too basic and detracted from the complexity of traditional poetry. Regardless of the controversy, Kaur has been able to play an impactful position in introducing poetry to a new generation and modernizing the way literature is disseminated.

Abstract

This article investigates the correlation between students' overall pronunciation proficiency and their competence in both suprasegmental and segmental aspects of English pronunciation. The study aims to shed light on the interplay between these two fundamental elements and their collective influence on students' pronunciation skills. Employing the qualitative approach, the research draws upon data collected from a diverse language background of the learners, exploring the intricacies of suprasegmental features such as stress, intonation, and rhythm, alongside the segmental elements involving individual sounds, phonemes, and their combinations. The research reveals nuanced insights into the challenges students face in mastering these pronunciation aspects and identifies potential factors contributing to any observed discrepancies. It also delves into the pedagogical implications of addressing both suprasegmental and segmental aspects concurrently in language instruction. The findings contribute to the ongoing discourse on effective pronunciation teaching methodologies and underscore the importance of a holistic approach that integrates suprasegmental and segmental elements to enhance overall pronunciation competence. The research presented herein serves as a valuable resource for enhancing the understanding of the intricate relationship between suprasegmental and segmental aspects in pronunciation, ultimately contributing to the improvement of language teaching and learning practices.
