Abstract

This research conducts a comparative analysis of the metaphors used in Alfred Lord Tennyson's poem "Tears, Idle Tears" and Emily Dickinson's "After Great Pain, a Formal Feeling Comes." Metaphor is a powerful literary device for conveying emotions and abstract meanings, often reflecting the social context and personal experiences of the poet. It explores how male and female poets confront themes of emotional pain, trauma, and loss, influenced by gender dynamics. Tennyson's work encapsulates nostalgia and loss through romantic imagery, subtly challenging Victorian gender norms by depicting male vulnerability. In contrast, Dickinson’s poem portrays emotional numbness and self-defense following trauma, reflecting the rigid societal expectations on women to maintain composure despite inner turmoil. The research employs a descriptive-qualitative approach to examine how the poets use metaphors to express their emotional states, highlighting the perspective of gender. While Tennyson’s metaphors emphasize existential longing and an introspective view of masculinity, Dickinson's metaphors focus on the suppression of pain and emotional distance, illustrating the social pressures on women to conceal their suffering.

Abstract

In societal interactions, language plays a fundamental role, serving crucial purposes. Language activities aim to express specific intentions and objectives. This study aims to examines Ariana Grande's song "I Wish I Hated You" using a stylistic approach, focusing on morphological analysis of free and bound morphemes, including lexical, functional, derivational, and inflectional morphemes, and their relation to the song's theme. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method. The primary data source is the lyrics of the song. The data collection process involved listening to the song, reading the lyrics, and categorizing them based on morpheme types. The research results indicate 74 lexical morphemes, 102 functional morphemes, 3 derivations, and 16 inflections in the song. Dominant morphemes are primarily free morphemes, with functional morphemes being the most prevalent type. This highlights how the selection and arrangement of dominant morphemes shape the song's overall impact and message. The research contributes to appreciate Ariana Grande's song, uncover deeper meanings, and enhance understanding of morpheme types within the lyrics.
