Abstract

This study aims to analyze the representation of poverty in the short story Mata yang Enak Dipandang through a sociological approach to literature. This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. The data consist of textual excerpts from the short story that reflect representations of poverty, social relations, exploitation, and social criticism. Data were collected through reading and note-taking techniques, while data analysis was conducted through stages of data reduction, categorization, interpretation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that poverty in the short story is represented as a multidimensional phenomenon encompassing economic, social, psychological, and symbolic aspects. The main character experiences marginalization, exploitation, and social pressure, which reinforce her position as a subordinate group. In addition, the story highlights how society tends to judge individuals based on physical appearance, thereby reinforcing discrimination against the poor. The use of symbolism and metaphor further emphasizes the social criticism conveyed by the author. The implications of this study suggest that literary works can function as a medium for social reflection that enhances awareness, empathy, and understanding of the reality of poverty in society.
