Abstract

This research aims to analyze the stylistic turn in the poems about Realism entitled "Dead" and "If" by William Dean Howell and “The Fire Sermon”and "The Burial of Dead" by T.S. Eliot about Modernism. This study uses Zienkowski's (2011) theory to show the language style embodied in literary works. This research uses a qualitative descriptive design to reveal and investigate the phenomenon of style embodied in the poet. The data taken are words, phrases, and sentences related to the discourse of beauty. Data to support this research is taken from articles, journals, websites, and previous studies with the same topic but with different objects. Based on theory and analysis, the researcher argues that the poem "If," an early poem by William, uses a lot of personification and metaphor to express strong feelings and ideas, often using the language of nature. Meanwhile, in the poem "Dead," William also displays a very contrasting style. The use of personification and metaphor. "Burial of the Dead" from "The Waste Land" uses a fragmented structure and a large number of metaphors and metonymies to depict the fragmentation and loss of meaning in society. In "The Fire Sermon," Eliot explores the spiritual and sexual disillusionment of the post-World War I era. He incorporates various metonymic sounds, allusions and imagery. Thus, this identification can reveal the correlation between the poetry of William Dean Howells and T.S Elliot.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of cataphoric references on coherence and creativity in non-native English speakers attending university-level creative writing courses. This research aims to address the question of whether students’ creativity is reflected through the use of cataphora in their writing. Using qualitative descriptive analysis, the author focuses on creative writing works from a Creative Writing Course at Universitas Islam Negeri Sayyid Ali Rahmatullah Tulungagung, employing purposive sampling from two students’ compilation books for diverse representation. Data collection involved systematically reading the compilation books, and noting instances of cataphoric and anaphoric references. The collected data were organized into tables, categorizing passages based on Longacre's text types. Analysis centers on cataphoric and anaphoric references, guided by Halliday and Matthiessen's theoretical framework (2014). This theoretical lens guided the exploration of the roles of cataphora in different text types and the subsequent understanding of its impact on students' creativity. The findings reveal that cataphora can function as both cohesive and creative tools, enhancing the creative dimension of a text by instilling suspense or a sense of anticipation. Interestingly, texts that abstain from using cataphora and solely utilize anaphora may enhance creativity through diction diversification. However, it is acknowledged that determining whether students’ creativity is reflected through the use of cataphora in their writing presents challenges. The study's limitations stem from the analysis of purposive samples, thus restricting the generalizability of the results. Despite limitations, this study significantly contributes to understanding the creative dimensions of cataphoric references in non-native English-speaking students' writing.

Abstract

This article aims to find out the types of traditional Arab clothing in the Middle East and to find out the influence of symbols of power in traditional clothing in the lives of Arab society itself. Data was taken using Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotic theoretical approach. According to the findings, this research analyses the symbols of power in traditional Arab clothing. The results found that: first, the types of traditional Arab clothing have various variations. Arabs often use kaftans as their traditional clothing. This style of clothing has a loose, long cut and dates back to Ancient Persia; secondly, symbols of power in traditional Arab clothing symbolize status or caste in everyday life. Apart from that, these clothes also symbolize people who have a cultured personality and high dignity. As traditional clothing for Arab women, it has experienced fashion dynamics from time to time. The national clothing symbolizing Arab women presented in the fashion show was able to convey a contemporary impression but did not leave behind a legacy. Thus, traditional Arab clothing also provides a symbol of Arab society itself.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the types of slang words and the translation strategies used to translate the slang words in Venom: Let There Be Carnage movie. Data collected by referring to the official movie transcripts in English and their translations in Indonesian, especially those that have been classified as slang words. To classify the slang, the researcher used the theory of types of slang by Allan and Burridge (2006), while the analysis process used the theory of translation strategies proposed by Baker (1992). The study found four out of five types of slang words, and the type “fresh and creative” mostly appeared with 17 data. It is followed by flippant which occurred 15 times, imitative 9 times, and clipping 4 times. Furthermore, the study also found seven out of eight translation strategies to translate the slang, and the most frequently used strategy is translation by a more general word which constitutes 46.6% of the total data. Meanwhile, the translation by illustration is not used. And the least strategy used to translate the slang words is translation using loan word or loan word with explanation with a total of 2.2%. Based on the findings, fresh and creative slang appears most frequently due to the casual atmosphere of the scenes, while acronyms are absent as they are more suitable for written text. The general word strategy is common due to the abundance of general terms, whereas the illustration strategy is rarely used due to spatial constraints in presenting additional visuals in scenes. Hopefully, this study can provide practical insights for translating similar movies.

And translating the subtitle or text just makes an ambiguous or incorrect translation in the TV series.
