Abstract

Analysis of the Main Character's Inner Conflict in the Novel Wanita Metakil aims to identify the factors that give rise to inner conflict as well as the problem-solving strategies employed by the main character in accordance with the narrative structure of Wanita Metakil by Trijana PR. This study employs a literary psychology approach, a gender perspective, and literary function theory employing a descriptive qualitative approach. Information was gathered via textual examination and the documentation of conversations. supported by theoretical triangulation encompassing Freud’s psychoanalysis, Coser’s conflict theory, and Todorov’s structuralism. The findings indicate that the main character’s inner conflict emerges from a complex interaction of internal and external factors, social norms, and gender constructions within Javanese society. These conflicts are manifested in tensions between personal desires and social responsibilities, resulting in psychological pressure and moral dilemmas. Conflict resolution is achieved through coping strategies in the form of cognitive restructuring and emotional regulation. This study enhances the understanding of the interrelationship between character psychology, social norms, and gender dynamics in Javanese literary works. Keywords: inner conflict, literary psychology, gender   ABSTRAK Analisis psikologis batin tokoh utama novel Wanita Metakil bertujuan untuk menentukan faktor-faktor yang menyebabkan munculnya konflik batin serta strategi penyelesaian masalah yang digunakan tokoh utama sesuai dengan alur cerita dalam novel Wanita Metakil karya Trijana PR.
