Abstract

This article explores how Rick Riordan applies the literary concept of pastiche and defamiliarization in his novel The Sword of Summer (2015). The study focuses on how elements of Norse mythology are blended with contemporary settings and characters to create a fresh and unfamiliar reading experience. Guided by Viktor Shklovsky’s theory of defamiliarization and Fredric Jameson’s idea of pastiche, the analysis reveals that the protagonist Magnus Chase and supporting character Samirah Al-Abbas are constructed through a fusion of ancient myth and modern identity. The appearance of mythological symbols such as the sword Sumarbrander, the fire giant Surt, and the reinterpretation of Valhalla as a high-tech hotel also represent a deliberate artistic choice that renews readers’ perceptions of traditional myth. Using a qualitative descriptive method, this study concludes that Riordan’s work challenges conventional depictions of heroes and mythology by encouraging readers to see both ancient narratives and present-day realities in unfamiliar ways. This blend of nostalgia and innovation not only attracts contemporary readers but also delivers a unique aesthetic experience through literary defamiliarization (Jameson, 1992; Shklovsky, 2015).

Abstract

Code mixing is part of linguistics. Many people uses code mixing in everyday conversation for example, often found when in a mall, supermarket or restaurant. Code mixing is the use of one language unit into another language. The code mixing occurs when the speaker enters a foreign language into the language that is more dominantly  used.  This  research  investigates  the  use  of  code  mixing  applied  by waiters and customers at Pizza Hut Gunung Sahari by using descriptive qualitative method. As a result of the analysis, it can be found that there are two types of code mixing used in conversations between waiters and customers at Pizza Hut Gunung Sahari, they are Word Insertion and Phrase Insertion. The writer also found there are six reasons of code mixing used: Bilingualism, Speaker and Partner Speaking, Social Community, Situation, Vocabulary and Prestige. Based on Khairunas theory using code mixing can increase knowledge in other languages and if overeating is used it will have a bad effect because the speaker will always rely on code mixing and can change the speaker's accent.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menelaah hubungan antara bahasa dan struktur sosial budaya dengan membandingkan teks pidato perdana Presiden Joko Widodo (2014) dan Prabowo Subianto (2024) melalui perspektif Analisis Wacana Kritis Fairclough. Penelitian ini berupaya menjawab tiga pertanyaan: (1) bagaimana pilihan kebahasaan digunakan untuk merepresentasikan visi politik kedua presiden? (2) ideologi apa yang terkandung dalam pidato mereka? dan (3) bagaimana praktik wacana mencerminkan konteks sosial-budaya yang lebih luas? Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pidato perdana Joko Widodo merefleksikan ideologi nasionalisme populis melalui penekanan pada kerja keras, gotong royong, dan persatuan yang menekankan kolektivitas dan inklusivitas. Sebaliknya, pidato Prabowo Subianto mengandung ideologi reformisme otoritatif yang ditandai dengan wacana pemberantasan korupsi, swasembada pangan, dan “demokrasi santun” untuk membangun legitimasi melalui bahasa ketertiban, otoritas moral, serta kedaulatan bangsa. Dengan demikian, pidato perdana tidak hanya menyajikan arah kebijakan, tetapi juga membangun posisi ideologis yang memengaruhi legitimasi politik kepemimpinan masing-masing. This study aims to examine the relationship between language and socio-cultural structure by comparing the inaugural speeches of President Joko Widodo (2014) and Prabowo Subianto (2024) through the lens of Fairclough’s Critical [ll1] Discourse Analysis. The research seeks to answer the following questions: (1) How are linguistic choices used to represent the leaders’ political vision? (2) What ideologies are embedded in their speeches? and (3) How do discourse practices reflect broader socio-cultural contexts? The findings indicate that Joko Widodo’s inaugural address foregrounded the ideology of populist nationalism through emphasis on “hard work,” “mutual cooperation,” and “unity,” reflecting an image of collective struggle and inclusivity. In contrast, Prabowo Subianto’s speech articulated an ideology of authoritative reformism, marked by discourses of corruption eradication, food self-sufficiency, and “polite democracy,” which positioned him as a strong leader seeking order, moral authority, and national sovereignty. While Jokowi’s discourse leaned toward constructing solidarity among the people, Prabowo’s discourse sought legitimacy through the language of discipline and protection of national dignity. These results demonstrate that inaugural speeches not only present policy directions but also construct ideological positions that shape political legitimacy.
