Abstract

This study delves into the tale Aladdin and the Magic Lamp as the excerpt of the Middle Eastern folk tales collection One Thousand and One Nights rather than the popular Disney version. It problematizes the figure of Aladdin and rebrands him as an immoral ethicist as opposed to Disney hero who seeks strength within himself and the other text versions of him as a “changed” man. This problematizing essentially entails a critique of the Westernized moral figure and its basic ‘universal lesson’ in the text to argue his being immoral. To do this, the methodology of the paper follows from a philosophical reading that subjectivizes the protagonist into the question of ethics. Specifically, it takes from Žižek’s elaboration of the Nietzschean version of an immoral ethics that remains consistent with the fidelity to one’s desire. The paper shows how the plot reveals Aladdin’s immoral ethics that is founded on strength and constant activity but presupposing the voluntary knowledge and cleverness of his existential choice. To back this, the study finds three distinct features, namely: 1) disregard to authority, 2) love beyond good and evil, and 3) negative will to power.DOI: 10.24071/ijhs.2019.030108

Abstract

The first great dame of the Indonesian cinema, Roekiah, rose to fame just as the medium of film came into its own. Born in 1917, she, as with many of her contemporaries, had a background in stage and was renowned for her vocal abilities. Her first filmic role, in Albert Balink's Terang Boelan (1937), catapulted her to stardom. Over the next five years she appeared in a further eight films, first opposite Rd. Mochtar then Ismail Djoemala, becoming one of the colony's best-loved stars. In her personal life, Roekiah was married to Kartolo, and would often defer to him when speaking to reporters. The couple had five children. This paper examines how the damsel-in-distress roles played by Roekiah and her public persona as a demure and obedient wife positioned her between two ideals: the traditional woman and the modern woman. It argues that, by negotiating between these two ideals and emphasizing her traditional attributes, Roekiah was able to capitalize on the patriarchal society's views of women, thus enabling her to reach a level of success unattained by such contemporary actresses as Fifi Young, Hadidjah, and Ratna Asmara.DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2017.010102

Abstract

The process of naming newborn babies is inseparable from the culture where they belong. Among Javanese people, there is a change of trends in naming babies. As western, noble, and religion associated names, such as Amelia, Gupita, Arsyad, gain popularity, modest and old-fashioned names, such as Tugino and Pariyem disappear. This paper  discusses the trend in the naming of babies in Javanese community at the present time. Three theories are employed in the analysis. I will apply Saussurean Semiology and Bathesian Semiology and try to relate them to Stuart Hall's Theory of Identity. As a name is just an element of cultural identities, changing trends in naming in Javanese culture does not entirely change their identity as Javanese people.DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2017.010107

Abstract

This study deals with the production of fillers used in Barack Obama’s speeches. This study is to investigate the types and functions of fillers used by Barack Obama. The study seeks to answer two research questions: (1) what are the types of fillers in Barack Obama’s speeches? and (2) What are the functions of fillers in Barack Obama’s speeches? In order to answer these problems, the researcher applied Rose’s (1998) theory on the types of fillers which combined with similar notions on the types and functions of fillers which taken from Stenström (1994) and Baalen (2001). This study adopted a descriptive qualitative approach which used a discourse analysis to conduct this study. This study aims to introduce the types and the functions of fillers and to increase the learners’ awareness of fillers when they hesitate in the foreign language, which is actually the very nature of speaking.DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2017.010112

Abstract

Women are believed to speak differently from men. They carry certain features which are distinctive in their speech (Lakoff, 2004). However, some women are found to speak differently from women’s speech in general. This phenomenon is reflected in the use of language by Nicki Minaj, one of the judges of American Idol Season 12, whose speech stands out above the rest of the other women. The study investigates Nicki Minaj’s comments in American Idol Season 12 in terms of women’s language features. It focuses on two issues, namely how the language used by Nicki Minaj in American Idol Season 12 conforms to women’s language features and what possible factors cause the absence of women’s language features in Nicki Minaj’s comments to the contestants of American Idol Season 12. To find answers to the two questions, document analysis was employed, in which seven videos of live performances taken from American Idol Season 12 were examined. The findings revealed that women’s language features which appeared in Nicki Minaj’s comments were intensifier, emphatic stress, filler, rising intonation, and lexical hedge. The rest of the features did not appear in her speech; they were tag question, ‘empty’ adjective, precise colour term, ‘hypercorrect’ grammar, ‘superpolite’ form, and avoidance of strong swear words. This phenomenon can be accounted for by four possible factors that cause their absence in Nicki Minaj’s comments to the contestants of American Idol Season 12. They were father’s speech, ethnicity, community of practice, and different social psychological perceptions. DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2018.010204

Abstract

This study aims to describe the situation experienced by Kompas newspaper in the context of Indonesian politics from 1960 to 1980. This method of this research is a qualitative descriptive study describing an event with a historical approach. The method used is critical discourse analysis by reviewing the editorial from Kompas newspaper from 1960 to 1980. From the research result, it was found that Malari incident (fifteenth of January 1974) was the starting point of Kompas during the New Order era. Kompas is considered an idealist newspaper, Kompas which expresses people's conscience and aspirations, boldly and critically exercises  social control. The pre-Malari Kompas is a free, independent and articulate newspaper. On the contrary, post-Malari Kompas is a less idealist newspaper, which tends to represent the interests of the rulers, government or even the state which never exercise social control critically, decisively, and courageously. The post-Malari Kompas is a newspaper that is not free or at least a newspaper that has a very limited independence. DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2018.010207

Abstract

A bundle of studies in multidisciplinary context has been conducted concerning the earth changes. As we are now witnessing the destruction that our earth is suffering from, promoting environmental awareness becomes visible to be vital. In line with the rapid development of information mobility and technology, English is becoming world’s language. The scope of English users then proved to be continuously in growth. Therefore, English as foreign language (EFL) learning context is considered ideal to promote the environmental awareness. There are some evidence that support the way of promoting the environmental awareness in the educational context. Moreover, Pike and Shelby (1994) point out consciousness in various aspects as the desired result for promoting environmental awareness through education. This paper elaborates those evidence and discusses the aims of global environmental education.DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2018.010213

Abstract

Early marriage is a total destruction to the human rights of children. Contrary to the conviction that child marriage in rural, developing countries is inextricably linked with their cultural backwardness, violence against women need to be examined and addressed in terms of the specific socio-economic and cultural conditions as to why girls, adolescents and young women are forced to live and marry in their young age. This article examines two shorts stories from Indonesia to be analyzed comparatively with another story from Bangladesh to show the limit of mainstream feminist perspectives that often put the blame on minority cultures. The present study reveals that first, child marriages in both countries are largely driven by such factors as poverty, economic dependency, lack of education, and dowry in Bangladesh’s case. Secondly, the ways in which authors depict child marriages vary, i.e. it is either perpetuating the violence in child marriage, or critically depicting child marriage as an aberrant patriarchal practice. Taken together, the child brides play their respective role as victor, survivor, or victim.DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2018.020106

Abstract

Narrative is understood as the record of human activities which relate strongly to a cultural matrix.  Narrative, in terms of story or story telling, is representative of factual and fictional achievement placed in a chronological or causal order. Therefore, narrative and narratology have an important function in understanding cultural activities. Some structuralist scholars, especialy those living during 1960-1980, created a special theory on narratology. There are four specialists of narratology; they are: Vladimir Propp, Claude Levi-Strauss, Tvsetan Todorov, and A. J. Greimas. They claimed the same perspective, that all narrative (such as folktale, myth, and legend) in fact share the same fundamental structure (i.e grammar, syntactical structure, semantics axes, actantial structure, or logical structure). Panji Story is one of Indonesian heritage stories popular during the rule of Madjapahit Kingdom. The narratives were transmitted into folktales, oral literature, written literature, hikayat, or engraved as the reliefs at ancient temples. The narrative which was originated from Singasari Kingdom was so pervasive in East Javanese culture, as it created a Panji Culture (Nurcahyo, 2016). The spread of the narratives was so extensive, reaching Bali, Nusa Tenggara, Sumatra, Borneo, Papua, and to neighbouring countries such as Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar. This paper aims at revealing narrative sequences of Panji Narratives in line with Todorov’s narrative theory, especially in relation to his narratology theory of equilibrium. Todorov’s equilibrium gets a new perspective and meaning.DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2018.020110

Abstract

Males representing female beauty without experiencing to be real females in post-New Order era become the background of this study. This study is aimed: (1) to identify female beauty in post-New Order era represented by male writers, (2) to identify factors forming the representation. To achieve the aims, the study is done by applying Stuart Hall's representation theory which is not only about meaning produced through language and knowledge produced through discourse, but also about revealing patriarchal structure containing in discourse. After applying Stuart Hall's representation theory, it is found that female beauty in post-New Order era is not the same as the one in New Order era. Male writers represent that beautiful females in post-New Order are the ones whose body attracting other people and who struggle for freedom. The representation is formed by male writers in relation with males in post-New Order era and in discursive formation in post-New Order siding with males to keep masculine domination.DOI: 10.24071/ijhs.2019.020204
