Abstract

In our lives, there are many instances where we encounter jokes. The media; printed, online, or broadcasted, presents jokes in many ways. Some television programs have their own form of humour such as through talk shows or other kinds of performances. In printed media, we can read humour through comic. Online media also provides certain sites to deliver jokes. We are familiar with 9gag or other sites which post funny pictures or memes. This paper is going to analyse how the jokes in online media is presented using a pragmatic point of view. The researchers took the data from the website and chose the joke about school life and analysed the 30 school jokes using the reference and maxim theory. The result of this study shows that in order to create a school joke, the joke maker violates the reference and maxim.

Abstract

This study focuses on the construction of identity shaped by the dominant class. Jean Rhys’ Wide Sargasso Sea  portrays the complexity of identity in the figure of Creole woman, Antoinette, for belonging to neither the Jamaican society nor the European. Using interpretive qualitative approach as its method, this study applies the theory of power and knowledge to reveal the imbalance power relation between center and marginalized. The result of analysis shows that both Jamaican society and Rochester have the contribution in shaping the inferiority complex to Antoinette. The representation of madwoman in Antoinette implies the constructed truth framed by the dominant class. As a result of the inferiority complex, the dependency of the inferior on the superior grows which consolidates the domination of power. Under this situation, the dominant power legitimates their authority to represent others as well as to control the marginalized side. Thus, this study intends to raise the awareness of any kind of oppression which limits people to have a voice.

Abstract

Mahfouz’s literary fame is mainly based on his novels which become the main source for the critics to understand his whole literary visions. Mahfouz’s short stories, on the other hand, are considered secondarily valuable by the critics as the remainder of the ideas from his novels. This paper proposes that Mahfouz’s short stories are as important as his novels in a sense that they highlights or magnify particular aspects of Mahfouz’s visions. From the analysis of three Mahfouz’s short stories entitled “Zaabalawi”, “A Day for Saying Goodbye”, and “The Answer is No”, some of his essential themes and literary visions, which developed further in his novel, are identified. In Zaabalawi, the persistence in maintaining hope of finding meaningful life in spite of the persisting tragedy in human life is emphasized by Mahfouz. In A Day for Saying Goodbye, Mahfouz depicts the futility of modernity without adherence to religious values. In The Answer is No, by depicting the shift of gender relations and accomodating the marginalized women’s resistence to patriarchy, Mahfouz encourages the reformation of unjust societal structure.

Abstract

The portrayal of creole identity is presented in several literary works, one of them is in the portrayal of Antoinette Cosway in Jean Rhys’ Wide Sargasso Sea. Antoinette Cosway firstly is the minor character in Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre. The research traces the link between Antoinette Cosway’s creole identity with her madness. According to Bhabha’s ambivalence theory, creole identity possibly creates a new identity as the result of interrelation between colonizer and colonized. Based on the research, Antoinette Cosway failed to create a new identity and became a madwoman instead. The cause is the complex situation faced by her and the lack of supporting aspects for constructing a new identity.

Abstract

The present study is aimed at providing translating theory of English into Indonesian and vice versa. In achieving the aim, content analysis of expressive (poem), informative (report and academic), and vocative text (advertisement) is applied. The analysis is based on three aspects consisting of grammatical structure, cultural words, and writing mechanic. The result shows that the translator needs to adapt the grammatical structure, cultural words, and writing mechanic of source language into target language. However, there are exceptions in cultural words and capitalization. In translating from English into Indonesian especially in academic text, some English words are assimilated into Indonesian (foreignization). In translating Indonesian poem into English, the target text capitalization imitates source text capitalization. Besides, for the purpose of attractiveness, persuasion, and effectiveness in translating Indonesian advertisement into English, different words are prefered but the meaning is retained.

Abstract

Although the notion of gay space started out as a cultural geographic study that predominantly focused on Western countries where gay visibility was high, more scholars have begun to show keenness in tracing the existence of gay space in Asian regions in recent years. This article traces the formation of gay space in Jono Anwar’s 2003 movie Arisan!. Set in modern day Indonesia where homosexuality is still deeply frowned upon, the movie explores how the male protagonist - Sakti struggles to come to terms with his own homosexuality in a world governed by heteronormativity. This study argues that the gay space in Arisan! is not formed by merely portraying the gay characters in a positive light but rather, by toppling the heteronormative structures that shaped the core of sexual hegemony as portrayed in the movie. This study examines how the formidable heteronormative structures are destabilized by toxic masculinity, toxic femininity, and the problematizing of heterosexual world for the purpose of making room for the formation of gay space.

Abstract

This study attempts to identify the intention and pragmalinguistic forms of anger expression in tweets using #IndonesiaTerserah on November 15th, 2020. A corpus of 30 tweets is analyzed within pragmatic analysis framework. In analyzing the data, the illocutionary acts and pragmalinguistics forms of the tweets are the focus. The interpretation entails the analysis of text, addressing, and the identification of connotative meanings. The data are collected using Twitter Archiver Programme (API). An underlying assumption for choosing the time frame is the hashtag reached the highest trending in Indonesia as response to two mass gathering incidents in Soekarno Hatta airport on 10 November 2020, and Petamburan on 14 November 2020. Based on the findings of illocutionary act, the intention of using #IndonesiaTerserah in the tweets mostly is to state the fact and elaborate their opinions regarding the issues. The irritated feeling dominates the intention of using #IndonesiaTerserah. However, they also express expectation to the stakeholders to handle the issues in a better way. Based on the findings on pragmalinguistics forms, anger is expressed in thinly veiled form of cynical humor in order to make their message more straightforward to the addressees.
