<![CDATA[Sudah hampir lima puluh tahun usianya, Raumanen karya Marianne Katoppo yang ditulis pada 1975 nyatanya masih eksis hingga sekarang. Bahkan, pada 2018 ia baru saja diterbitkan ulang oleh penerbit besar Grasindo. Terbitan terbarunya dihiasi dengan desain sampul yang cantik dan menyenangkan berbanding terbalik dengan kisahnya yang pahit dan pedih. Tulisan ini melihat bagaimana perempuan tahun 1960-an direpresentasikan kembali melalui sampul barunya yang bergaya khas melenial. Konten novel Raumanen dikaji dengan teori representasi dan ditemukan bahwa, novel tersebut merepresentasikan perempuan kalah. Sampulnya dikaji dengan teori semiotika Peirce dan ditemukan bahwa, sampul turut merepresentasikan perempuan yang kalah, melalui visualisasi kematian tokoh perempuan. Dengan demikian kedua korpus tersebut memiliki hubungan yang saling menguatkan suatu representasi identitas perempuan dalam Raumanen.It’s almost fifty years old, Marianne Katoppo's novel titled Raumanen that written in 1975 is still in existence today. Even it had just been republished by the major Grasindo publisher at 2018. Its latest version is adorned with a beautiful and pleasing cover design, that opposed to its bitter and poignant story. This paper examines how women in 1960s are represented again through the new millennial-stylized cover. Raumanen's content was studied with Stuart Hall’s representation theory and it was found that the novel represented a woman who lost. On the other hand, Raumanen's cover was studied with Peirce's semiotic theory and it was found that the cover also represented a woman who lost, through the visualization of a female character’s death. Thus the two corpuses have a mutually reinforcing relationship to represent women's identity in Raumanen. ]]>
