Abstract

People use different utterances by considering the social context in which communication  takes place. An utterance may have more than one meaning and function depending on social  context and other factors. This study aims to describe the spoken language functions of the main  characters, Charlie and Nicole, in the Marriage Story movie. This descriptive qualitative research  used Roman Jacobson’s language function classification to categorize the selected utterances  found in Marriage Story movie into one of the six functions (emotive, conative, referential,  metalingual, phatic, and poetic). To interpret the classified data and the contexts or situations, I  relate the language functions to social factors and social dimensions based on Holmes’  categorization. The results show that all six language functions appeared in Nicole and Charlie’s  utterances. The data analysis depicts that emotive function is predominantly used by the main  characters throughout the whole movie. Moreover, those language functions are influenced by  social factors and social dimensions.Keywords: language function; social factor; social dimension; Marriage Story.

Abstract

The multi-interpreted narrative of Han Kang’s novel The Vegetarian is developed on an allegory. In this study, the allegory is seen as the meaning of freedom where the subject chooses to resist social intervention through the radical Act and political withdrawal — two main practices of action in the Žižek study. This study aims to examine the practices of action demonstrated by the protagonist that resulted from her childhood trauma. By applying Žižek’s theory of radical politics, the results of the study revealed the radical Act of being a vegetarian taken by the main character as her criticism of the violent environment. Further, the subject’s political withdrawal from living as a normal human indicates that she has gone beyond the radical Act. Even though the subject collapses in her effort to transform to become a tree, her courage to start taking this action in the first place confirms that she has value as an authentic subject.Keywords: vegetarian; trauma; Žižek study; radical Act; political withdrawal; The Vegetarian
