Abstract

This study explores Undu-unduon, the oral folktales of the Saluan people in Central Sulawesi, as a medium of cultural preservation and identity formation. Despite the pressures of globalization and technological change, these narratives remain vital in transmitting values across generations. The research aims to identify the moral, social, and cultural wisdom contained in the stories and to explain their role in reflecting Saluan identity. Using Krippendorff’s content analysis, nine folktales were examined through interviews with cultural bearers, published collections, and digital recordings. Each narrative was coded into categories of moral values, social relations, cultural beliefs, and identity markers. The findings reveal that the tales embed lessons of honesty, responsibility, discipline, and respect for elders, while also warning against greed, betrayal, and disobedience. Stories such as Burung Popongku, Danau Dowiwi, and Banangsina highlight discipline, kinship, and resilience as core elements of Saluan worldview. At the same time, they critique negative behaviors that disrupt social harmony. The study concludes that Undu-unduon functions not only as entertainment but also as moral instruction and cultural preservation, offering insights into how oral traditions can be used to strengthen character education and sustain ethnic identity in modern contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to identify what local literature of Banggai coastal culture is appropriate as English reading materials for junior high school students to enhance their cultural awareness. This study employs content analysis. The data sources are two books about Banggai folktales written in English. The data are collected by applying note-taking techniques. The instruments used to gather the data include the researchers as the primary data collectors and analysts, a rubric of analytical constructs as a guide for collecting relevant data, and datasheets as the media for recording the data. The data, then, are analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. Inter-coder agreement (peer debriefing) is used to maintain the trustworthiness of the study. This study finds that Banggai folktales are predominantly characterized by cultural aspects, including behaviors (35%) and norms (31%). However, readability analysis reveals that more than half of the twenty-seven texts fell into the uneven (55.5%) and invalid (26%) categories, and only a few texts, such as "The Legend of Lemelu Lake" and "The Legend of Tendetung Lake," are at an appropriate level for grade 7. This study is limited to text analysis without classroom application. The study concludes that Banggai folktales hold promise as alternative EFL reading materials, given that teachers adapt the texts to balance cultural richness with readability.
