Abstract

The Barbie (2023) film has succeeded in presenting more than just a light spectacle about the iconic doll. Behind the bright colors and seemingly perfect atmosphere of Barbie Land, this film explores profound themes, including identity, gender roles, feminism, and social criticism of society's expectations of women. The archetypal character of Stereotypical Barbie, as the main character, plays a vital role in this film as a representation of the perfect woman in Barbie Land. This study aims to analyze the psychological factors in Barbie's journey that may interfere with or support her. This is reflected in several patterns called archetypes in her personality traits and behavior when facing several stages of the storyline. The data for this study used the film "Barbie" (2023) by Greta Gerwig. The research method used is qualitative descriptive, using a psychoanalytic approach (Jung's Archetype theory). The results found seven archetypal characters represented by Stereotypical Barbie. The findings are Persona, Shadow, Animus, The Great Mother, Hero, Trickster, and Self. These findings will help us understand how the psychological layers in Barbie's story reveal complex dynamics about women's roles, identity crises, and the search for self.

Abstract

Social impact in this research refers to the influence of Amanda Gorman's literary works on society, especially in fighting for values such as equality, courage and solidarity. Gorman's work not only reflects her personal experiences but also has the power to inspire social change and strengthen human connections at various levels of society. This study examines how Amanda Gorman's life experiences and perspectives are expressed through her selected poems. The data were taken from the Encyclopedia Britannica, Amanda Gorman's own website, an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, Amanda Gorman's poems entitled "The Hill We Climb" (2021), "An Ode We Owe" (2022), and "Chorus of the Captains" (2021). This research is a qualitative descriptive approach and applies Sociology of Literature theory as outlined by renowned scholars Wellek and Warren. The novelty in this research lies in the analysis of Amanda Gorman's poetry by expanding the focus from three main concepts (Social Background, Ideology, and Social Integrity) to seven more detailed concepts. The results of this research reveal that Amanda Gorman's poetry reflects seven main concepts: Personal Struggles and Triumphs, Urban Experience, Cultural Identity and Heritage, Activism through Art, Intersectionality of Gender and Race, Community Building, and Moral and Ethical Advocacy. Gorman draws on her personal experiences and cultural identity to convey social issues through poetry, which reinforces messages of solidarity, justice, and change in society.

Abstract

The growing inclusivity in today’s literary world offers female writers the chance to explore a wide range of themes even those that were previously considered exclusive for male writers. It led to the re-examination and reinterpretation of classic literature through a feminist lens. This study seeks to provide a comprehensive analysis of Natasha Solomons’ Fair Rosaline through the lens of Harold Bloom’s “Revisionary Ratios.” This paper employs mainly qualitative research design by combining textual analysis and comparative literary criticism to explore Natasha Solomons’ Fair Rosaline as a feminist reinterpretation of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet through the lens of Harold Bloom’s “Revisionary Ratios” theory and feminism literary theory. The texts of Fair Rosaline and Romeo and Juliet serve as the primary data. Not only that this research adds to the larger discussion concerning the place of women in literature while also improving our understanding of Fair Rosaline and its connection to Romeo and Juliet, but also offers new insights into how feminist writers reimagine classical texts and empower female narratives with new, critical perspectives.

Abstract

This article aims to identify and compare educational values contained in Bawang Merah and Bawang Putih, folklore from Indonesia, and Kong Ji Pat Ji from Korea through literary comparison. The study uses the qualitative descriptive method. Indonesian folklore was obtained through the 100-folklore book, and the origin of Korean folklore was obtained through the classic Korean folktale collection book. These two folk stories are similar: a main character living in a family where one parent dies and has a half-sister. Another similarity is that of the daughter in the family. Altogether, however, the text of these two folklores is different. The differences are found in text structures such as characters, settings, and grooves—furthermore, conflicts encountered in two different folklore. In the story of Bawang Merah and Bawang Putih, the protagonist seeks her stepmother's clothes, while in the story of Kong Ji Pat Ji fills the hollow. These two folk tales can be used as educational tools for moral and ethical values for readers of different cultural backgrounds.

Abstract

Dad jokes have become a trend lately. Despite often being perceived as boring and unfunny, dad jokes are still practical in generating laughter. A critical component that makes dad jokes humorous is the use of puns. This research aims to classify the types of puns and how these puns generate humor in dad jokes. The data were the sentences that contained puns gathered from the @Dadsaysjokes X account. The research applied a qualitative method and presented a descriptive analysis. The semantic analysis of the data is supported by the puns classification theory developed by Delabastita (1996) and the Script-based Semantic Theory of Humor (SSTH) developed by Raskin (1985). The results of this research show that there are four types of puns in the dad jokes, which are homonymy, homophony, homography, and paronymy, that generate humor through ambiguity. In conclusion, dad jokes consist of puns that carry multiple meanings and amuse people through creative wordplay, so it breaks down the societal stigma that views dad jokes as boring and unfunny.

Abstract

The anthology of short stories “Ketika Saatnya” is one of the literary works depicting the Buginese woman image written by Darmawati Majid, a Bugis woman. The problem with this article is how the literature illustrates the Buginese woman’s image based on Spivak’s idea of the subaltern and Islamic perspectives on women’s behaviours. This qualitative method, such as postcolonial discourse analysis, involves classifying data according to certain attributes and elements pertinent to the research aims to acquire research outcomes. It categorizes women as a subordinate demographic within society, politics, and geography, subject to the authority of a dominant group, particularly men. Buginese tradition signifies the supremacy of one male faction over another. This research indicates that Bugis women have consistently been placed in subordinate positions. The marginalized minority is portrayed as endeavouring to articulate their viewpoints and attain acknowledgement despite being labelled as “women of underprivileged areas” caught between conventional and Muslim ideologies.

Abstract

Clear Light of Day, one of the classic works of South Asian writer Anita Desai, focuses primarily on time and memory. In this novel she has skillfully portrayed how time and memory influence the personal and familial life, identities and relationships of individuals. Being set at the backdrop of Old Delhi, the novel reflects the importance of time and memory. Eventually, how time works as destroyer as well as preserver and how significant role memory plays in every individual’s life become the pivotal themes in Clear Light of Day. The novel explores the lives of the members of the Das family through the lenses of time and memory. Desai has used the concept of time of T. S. Eliot who remarks time as the “Destroyer and Preserver” and it has given the novel a profound base. This paper focuses closely on the roles and thematic exploration of time and memory in Clear Light of Day.
