Abstract

This study aims to analyze Adele's song Easy on Me through Jacques Lacan's psychoanalytic approach using descriptive qualitative methods. The research data consists of song lyrics which are then interpreted using Lacan's main concepts, namely the Real, the Imaginary, and the Symbolic. The analysis shows that the lyrics represent the inner conflict of the lyrical character in facing separation and an unresolved past. The request to “go easy on me” reflects the need for recognition in the Imaginary realm, as well as the guilt and responsibility present in the Symbolic. Meanwhile, emotional experiences that cannot be fully expressed through language describe the presence of the Real as something traumatic and unattainable. The results of this study show that song lyrics are not only emotional expressions, but also spaces of unconscious representation that can be understood through Lacan's psychoanalytic framework. In conclusion, this study points out that Adele’s song matches with Lacanian perspectives on psychoanalysis that mediates trauma through language of everyday life.

Abstract

>This study investigates the representation of childhood trauma in Paramore’s song The Only Exception by analyzing its figurative language through the lens of trauma theory. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research explores how the lyrics articulate the long-term psychological effects of witnessing parental conflict and how figurative devices, such as metaphor, personification, hyperbole, paradox, and repetition, convey the narrator’s emotional struggles. Drawing on Herman’s (1992) and Perry’s (2001) theories of trauma alongside contemporary scholarship on childhood adversity, this study demonstrates that the song reflects trauma not only as an individual experience but also as a cultural narrative. The results highlight how trauma manifests in avoidance strategies, mistrust of love, and fear of intimacy, yet also reveal the possibility of resilience and gradual healing. By positioning popular music as literature, the research underscores how songs can serve as testimonies of private pain that become accessible to a wider audience, turning trauma into a shared cultural text. In conclusion, this study contributes to the fields of literature, cultural studies, and psychology by showing how music operates as both artistic expression and psychological discourse.

Abstract

This study looks at The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar (2023) by Wes Anderson through the lens of Epicurean ethics. It shows how the movie deals with ideas, things, money, and right and wrong. Anderson shows Henry Sugar’s change from selfishness motivated by greed to selflessness urged by kindness by adapting a Yogi’s experience. This study uses qualitative explorative methods and textual analysis to find out how Epicurean ideas like ataraxia (peace of mind), moderation of desire, and the search for worthwhile pleasure can be seen in Sugar’s moral journey. The movie criticizes capitalist ideas by showing how useless it is to collect things and stressing the importance of living a moral life, being kind, and being simple. Overall, this study says that Anderson’s adaptation not only brings Dahl’s moral story to life again, but it also uses Epicurean ethics as a way to think about modern problems of desire, ideology, and moral responsibility.
