Abstract

This study examines the negotiation of self-loss through the denial defence mechanism in Rosé’s album Rosie (2024) using a Freudian psychoanalytic approach. Popular music is positioned as a cultural text that articulates psychological conflict and emotional vulnerability, particularly within toxic romantic relationships. Employing qualitative textual analysis and close reading, this research focuses on three selected songs namely Number One Girl, Toxic Till the End, and Stay a Little Longer to explore how denial operates as an ego defence in managing emotional pain and relational trauma. The findings reveal that denial functions through three interrelated forms: affective denial, cognitive denial, and symbolic denial. Rather than serving merely as a temporary protective mechanism, denial operates continuously to sustain emotional attachment, delay confrontation with loss, and gradually erode the subject’s autonomy and identity. This process results in a negotiated form of self-loss, in which the subject remains psychologically functional while experiencing progressive fragmentation of the self. By reading the album as a coherent psychological narrative rather than isolated songs, this study contributes a novel conceptual framework for understanding the dynamics of self-loss and denial in popular music, while extending psychoanalytic approaches to the analysis of contemporary female musical texts and affective trauma.

Abstract

This study attempts to analyze semiotic elements and messages intended for readers, focusing specifically on the types of signs according to Charles Sanders Peirce. Data was obtained from five cigarette package of no smoking warning labels, which were analyzed using Charles Sanders Peirce’s theory of semiotics. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with the aim of descriptively explaining. The primary data for this study were obtained from Indonesian cigarette packages currently on the market, all of which are actively distributed and available to consumers, ensuring that the data reflects current industry practices and market conditions. The brands collected in this particular study include Glory, Nation Bold, Filasta, Dio, and Sampoerna, representing a range of commonly available products. Based on this study, it was revealed that cigarette warning labels are strategically designed to reduce global smoking prevalence by presenting visual depictions of smoking-related illnesses alongside explicit health warnings. These measures aim to increase public awareness and influence behavior, thereby reducing both the frequency and intensity of smoking.
