Abstract

As language continuously evolves with societal and technological changes, the two generations, Gen Z and Gen Alpha, shaped by different digital environments, showcase distinct linguistic trends. Gen Z, having grown up in the early days of the internet, tends to use text-based slang influenced by memes and early social media. In contrast, Gen Alpha, immersed in the world of TikTok and YouTube, embraces more visual and fast-paced slang. By applying Halliday’s register theory, this research highlights how these slang variations are shaped by the social contexts, relationships, and communication methods of each generation. This study explores the unique slang words used by Generation Z (Gen Z) and Generation Alpha (Gen Alpha) on social media platforms and also provides a sociolinguistic perspective on how technology drives the development of language, offering insights into how these generations express identity and navigate their social worlds through slang.

Abstract

This study uses Freud's psychoanalysis to examine the psychological growth of the main character. in Akiyuki Nosaka's story Grave of the Fireflies. The writer examines the dynamic interaction of Freud's tripartite model the id, ego, and super-ego by analyzing the choices and actions of the characters. Every element of the main character's tripartite the Id, Ego, and Super-ego is identified and explained in the novel with the use of the qualitative technique. The results demonstrate that when the character strives to get some nourishment for himself and his sister, his id is clearly visible. The ego can be seen in his efforts to make rational decisions and find the best ways to protect himself and his sister. A clear example of the influence of the super-ego is his feelings of guilt and regret over some of his decisions, such as not returning to his aunt o refusing to seek further help from others. The analysis reveals how war impacts the psychological states of individuals, highlighting the internal conflicts that arise when basic survival needs overshadow ethical standards.

Abstract

The transformation of traditional Indonesian superheroes such as Gundala, Si Buta dari Gua Hantu, Maza, Nusantara and Godam in the digital era, showing how traditional elements can be adapted to modern media. These Indonesian superheroes not only symbolise cultural heritage, but also reflect the aspirations and struggles of Indonesians at various times. In contrast, American superheroes such as Superman, Batman and Spider-Man dominate the global popular culture landscape and represent modern values such as individualism, capitalism and universal heroism. This study also discusses the role of superheroes in expressing the values and identities of their creators, as well as the impact of the dominance of American superhero culture on the global cultural market and its pressure to adapt established visual and narrative standards. It has been found that recent superhero works are more inclusive and reflect the diversity and intimacy of society more broadly. This article highlights the importance of integrating traditional values and cultural heritage with the evolving context of the digital age.

Abstract

This article explores leadership transformation through the lens of Jungian archetype in the narrative of The Lion King (2019). The movie depicts the individuation journey of its main characters, especially Simba, as a representation of the Hero archetype. The objective of this paper is to analyze Simba's individuation journey in The Lion King (2019) through the lens of Jungian archetypes. Through an in-depth analysis of Simba's relationships with supporting characters such as Mufasa (Mentor), Scar (Shadow), and Nala (Anima), the findings of this research reveal how Simba's emotional and psychological journey reflects Jung's stages of individuation, namely the integration of aspects of the self to achieve psychological wholeness by applying qualitative descriptive method in extracting movie’s scene lines. The film's narrative also shows the dynamics of leadership transformation, where Simba moves from a figure who runs away from responsibility to a wise, responsible, and balance-oriented leader. By utilizing powerful symbolism, such as the confrontation with Scar and the return of balance in the Pride Lands, this article shows that individuation is not only important in self-development but also in establishing true leadership. The article conclude that this article mainly provides new insights into how Jungian theory can be applied in modern narrative analysis, particularly in the context of personal transformation and leadership.

Abstract

This study analyzes a story entitled My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoults through the lens of Haslam dehumanization. By focusing on the forms of dehumanization that occur and the consequences of these actions to the main character in the novel. By analyzing the main character of the story, I explored the forms of dehumanization that occur through Haslam's Mechanistic Dehumanization theory. Using the qualitative method helped me to identify the forms of dehumanization and its effects in the story. An example of a form of dehumanization that occurs today clearly and is still widely circulated is the workers with very minimum wages, but their work is very heavy and many make a mismatch between work and pay. This indicates that occupational slavery is still widely practiced, by not doing human beings properly but exploiting their labor with very low wages. In my findings, I show some evidence of the forms of dehumanization and designer baby that occur to the main character in his own family, what effects this has on her, and how the character finally acts with all the forms of dehumanization that occur to him without having a value. The purpose of my research is to examine and reveal that all forms of dehumanization are wrong and disregard a human life as it happens in the novel I am discussing. The analysis which I made will show the forms of dehumanization that occur and the consequences when these things happen to a person or human being who lives in this world, focusing on a dehumanization that occurs in the main character in the novel and what consequences this behavior has on a human being.

Abstract

This study explores the intersection of Peter Pan Syndrome, a psychological phenomenon marked by emotional immaturity and reluctance to embrace adult responsibilities, with themes of anxiety and loneliness as reflected in the music of Indonesian singer-songwriter NIKI. By focusing on five selected songs (Pandemonium, 24, Heirloom Pain, Nothing Can, and Split), the research delves into how her lyrics articulate the emotional complexities of emerging adulthood, including self-doubt, identity struggles, and the pressures of societal expectations. Using thematic and figurative language analysis within a qualitative framework, the study examines the resonance of NIKI’s music with young listeners experiencing quarter-life crises and the broader implications of these struggles in contemporary society. Findings reveal how NIKI’s music portrays the psychological impact of anxiety and loneliness associated with Peter Pan Syndrome, offering not only a reflection of these challenges but also a message of resilience and emotional healing. By bridging psychological theory and popular culture, this research highlights the role of music as a medium for understanding and addressing modern developmental struggles.

Abstract

In Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the employment of unforgivable curses and other offensive magic creates ethical dilemma in the context of combat and self-defense. This shows that there is a tension between ideal ethical principles and real needs in self-defense efforts which also often occurs in the real world where considerations often experience a dilemma between punishment and human rights. This study seeks to examine the moral judgment regarding the use of magic from the perspectives of Deontology and Utilitarianism, as well as its impact on the moral decisions of the main characters. This study employs qualitative methodologies and a textual analysis methodology to examine the theories of Deontology, which examines morality based on universal obligations and principles, and Utilitarianism, which assesses morality based on the impact and benefits for a large number of people. According to the findings, the Deontological perspective views Harry, Molly Weasley, Hermione, and Snape's usage of unforgivable curses and offensive magic as a moral deviance, regardless of the good intentions or advantages. Utilitarianism, on the other hand, defends these behaviors since they benefit the greater number of people. This ethical quandary highlights the conflict between the moral need to not injure others and the need to defend oneself in battle situations.
