Journal of Language and Literature Vol 16, No 1 (2016): April
Publisher : Universitas Sanata Dharma

This paper examines the interface of economic hardship, sexual repression, and fear of aging in Tennessee Williams plays of the 1950s. Set in modern capitalist society of America, The Rose Tattoo (1955) and Sweet Bird of Youth (1959) depict the characters who are thwarted in their search for freedom that can be equated with the celebration of material prosperity and eternal youth. Using Eric Fromms view of freedom-as-frightful in modern society, the discussion will reveal the entrapment of self-deception in the characters unrealistic hope to stay young and productive in a commercialised society where sex is a commodity.

Componential Analysis of Headgear in English Haira Rizka
Journal of Language and Literature Vol 18, No 1 (2018): April
Publisher : Universitas Sanata Dharma

This research aims to: (1) classify the hyponym of headgears in English based on their dimensions, (2) examine meaning relations of hyponym and superordinate, and (3) investigate the meaning relations of each co-hyponym. This research employs componential analysis of Kreidler (1998) to examine hyponym components of headgears in English. This is a descriptive qualitative research which describes componential analysis of headgears in English. The data were collected through observation and note taking technique. The collected data were then analyzed by employing textual analysis method. The findings reveal that: (1) 24 hyponyms of headgear are classified into 4 dimensions: wearer, shape, material, and function, and they expose the shared and differentiating features of each hyponym; (2) meaning relation of superordinate can substitute its hyponym, while hyponym cannot substitute its superordinate because the characteristics or features of a hyponym do not include all characteristics or features of a superordinate; (3) meaning relation of co-hyponym is not substitutable because each lexeme (hyponym) has differentiating features and semantic meaning. It is concluded that by employing componential analysis, similar lexemes show their differences.Keywords: componential analysis, headgears, hyponym, superordinate

Journal of Language and Literature Vol 21, No 1 (2021): April
Publisher : Universitas Sanata Dharma

This article seeks to describe the metaphoric conceptualization of the COVID-19 pandemic in the online press releases of Lapor COVID-19 and the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (Kominfo). More specifically, it seeks to 1) describe the metaphorical linguistic forms contained in the online press releases of Lapor COVID-19 and Kominfo, 2) identify the conceptual metaphors contained in the online press releases of Lapor COVID-19 and Kominfo, 3) describe the function of the metaphors contained in the online press releases of Lapor COVID-19 and Kominfo. Data were collected between March 1 and October 31, 2020. Analysis was conducted using the method developed by Steen (2009). Nine metaphors were identified as being used within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic: 1) berguguran ('fall in battle'), 2) berdamai ('make peace'), 3) garis depan ('frontlines'), 4) melawan ('oppose'), 5) menang ('win'), 6) benteng ('fortress, bastion'), 7) menghantui ('spook'), 8) membesar ('grow in size'), and 9) menelan ('swallow'). Three conceptual metaphorizations of the pandemic were utilized by Lapor COVID-19, namely 1) PANDEMIC IS WAR, 2) PANDEMIC IS GHOST/SPECTER, and 3) PANDEMIC IS MONSTER. Meanwhile, one conceptual metaphorization was identified in Kominfo's press releases: PANDEMIC IS WAR. These conceptual metaphors' selection was informed by the genre of the discourses as well as specific characteristics of the institutional. Metaphors, as rhetoric devices in persuasive discourses, function to 1) increase the attractiveness of the message and stimulate readers' imagination, 2) reduce the complexity of the message, and 3) to concretize the discourse.

Journal of Language and Literature Vol 19, No 2 (2019): October
Publisher : Universitas Sanata Dharma

This paper x-rays the utilitarian functions and the nature of vehicle inscriptions and stickers in south-western Nigeria. It traces the history of the use of vehicle writings in Nigeria in general and the southwest in particular chronicling their long history of usage, and noting that it is a common phenomenon nowadays to come across vehicles, most especially commercial ones, heavily bedecked with an array of colourful inscriptions and stickers of different sizes and in different languages and that the posting of the moving emblems on vehicles has become so prevalent and so widespread that there is hardly an automobile on the highways in South-western Nigeria that does not transport them. Our study also reveals that vehicle insignia are meant to serve different purposes some of which include construction of religious messages, moral/philosophical messages, group/individual identity messages, warning and cautionary messages, humours, wits, ribaldry, advertising, politics and public enlightenment messages among several others. Our study further reveals that inscriptions and stickers serve as formidable communicative tools used to transmit diverse messages to the decoders.

Journal of Language and Literature Vol 15, No 2 (2015): October
Publisher : Universitas Sanata Dharma

It is reasonable to highlight that approving the use of intra-lingual and extra-lingual components means justifying the signs of ones politeness strategies to have appropriate communication. It would be rather different, however, when the scope is within the students writing skills. This paper focuses on the students implementation of those linguistic components as seen in their work assigned in Mass Media Communication (Journalism) class of the English Language Education Study Program of Sanata Dharma University, Yogyakarta. Not only does the discussion engage with the course objectives such as being able to make use of the language of news and the nature of investigative report, but it also involves the burning question of how politeness strategies portray such an appropriate application of the two linguistic components. Analysing the students work is, thus, an unavoidable method to use. This research paper is also grounded on the Indonesian indigenous wisdom sarujuk sithik-edhing [committing to win-win solution] of Katresnanism theory, contextualizing the students with the pro-active spirit of cultural pluralism as the nature of International journalism.

The Relation between Christianity and Colonialism in Ngugi Wa Thiongos The River Between Tatang Iskarna
Journal of Language and Literature Vol 18, No 2 (2018): October
Publisher : Universitas Sanata Dharma

This article is aimed at describing how the relation between Christianity and colonialism is constructed in The River Between (1965), a novel by Ngugi wa Thiongo. Using postcolonial approach focusing on the analysis of the characters and conflicts, this study reveals the mutual relation between Christianity and colonialism. Christianity becomes the ideological apparatus to build a colonial myth, doctrine, or perspective, while Christian missionaries gain the colonizers support from the colonial administrators. Their antagonistic relation can be explored through the natives re-reading of the Bible to review the colonialism and get rid of the colonial bondage. As postcolonial literature, The River Between offers counter-discourse against colonialism. However, some parts of the text are still slipped in the colonial hegemony.Keywords: Christianity, colonialism, postcolonialism, ideological apparatus, counter-discourse

A Feminist Stylistic Analysis of Doris Lessing's The Fifth Child (1988) Zahra Rahimnouri; Azra Ghandehariun
Journal of Language and Literature Vol 20, No 2 (2020): October
Publisher : Universitas Sanata Dharma

This study is a feminist stylistic analysis of The Fifth Child (1988). This study attempts to combine literary and linguistic theories by using the feminist stylistic approach of feminist stylisticians. This study investigates the lexico-semantic items in narration, gendered sentences, and items such as metaphors, adjectives, and their frequency, grammar, and different lexical items such as those related to colors. Also, Short's ideas about powerful/ powerless were used to discuss the dynamic of power in the relationship between Harriet and David. Through this analysis, female ideologies of the novel were also analyzed and discussed. Feminist stylistic theories were applied to explain how Harriet's language and description represent her passivity, obedience, and dependence. This study evaluates the grammatical and lexical components of the 'female sentence' to discover that female writing is unique and different from male writing. We inferred the author’s feminist style through how Harriet is described as a traditional, old-fashioned, powerless, and subordinated woman. Harriet accepts the dominance of men and persuades readers to sympathize Harriet whom everyone blames for giving birth to an abnormal child who causes too much trouble for everyone.

A Critical Discourse Analysis of Selected Utterances of State Actors on the 2019 Xenophobic Attacks on Nigerians in South Africa Damilola Oluseyi Fafiyebi
Journal of Language and Literature Vol 20, No 2 (2020): October
Publisher : Universitas Sanata Dharma

The study examined the discourse strategies employed by state actors in expressing their views on the 2019 xenophobic attack in South Africa. The objective is to examine how this group of people explores the provisions of critical discourse to shape and pattern their communicative intention. The data employed for the study were sourced from selected online media sources between September and November 2019. The study employed the Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) approach with a particular focus on the Discourse Historical Approach framework proposed by Wodak (2001) as its theoretical springboard. The study established that different state actors from each of the countries under scrutiny engage in positive self and negative others presentation. This showed that from their discourses, it can be deduced that the state actors were all out to launder the image of their respective countries on the one hand and that of the kith and kin on the other hand.
