Abstract

Novels serve not only as entertainment but also as a reflection of the social dynamics, power structures, and ideologies of their time. Research on the novel Namaku Alam has been limited to studies in literary sociology and psychology, so few have critically examined the construction of power and ideology through language. This study aims to analyze the construction of power and ideology in the novel Namaku Alam by Leila S. Chudori. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach using the critical discourse analysis model of Teun A. Van Dijk. The research data consists of quotations of words, sentences, dialogues, and paragraphs that contain elements of power and ideology. The results of the study indicate that (1) at the textual level, three dominant discourses are constructed: power as a tool for manipulating history, the stigmatization of anti-communist ideology as an instrument of social control, and corruption as a naturalized status symbol; (2) at the social cognition dimension, the author reflects a critical-humanist ideology through counter-hegemonic narratives to reclaim collective memory from state power; (3) at the social context dimension, the historical New Order serves as an active force shaping the state’s repressive practices while simultaneously opening spaces for resistance. The conclusion of this study affirms that the novel not only records history but also functions as social criticism and a tool for deconstructing dominant discourse.

Abstract

The depreciation of the Indonesian rupiah to Rp17,700 per US dollar in May 2026 attracted intensive coverage from Indonesian digital media, including CNN Indonesia on YouTube. This study analyzes the discourse of the broadcast entitled Rupiah Anjlok Tembus Rp17.700/US$ dan IHSG Melorot, Ada Apa? (May 19, 2026) using Norman Fairclough's three-dimensional framework of text, discursive practice, and social practice, augmented by Theo van Leeuwen's social actor representation taxonomy. As an audio-visual object, the broadcast's linguistic data were obtained through verbatim transcription of all utterances, indexed into 12 time-stamped segments; visual and prosodic dimensions are acknowledged but methodologically delimited outside the analytical corpus. The study aims to: (1) identify the linguistic representation of the rupiah crisis at the textual dimension; (2) analyze discursive practices underlying the production and distribution of the discourse; (3) reveal ideology and power relations within the social practice dimension; and (4) describe the representation of six primary social actors, namely Bank Indonesia, the Indonesian government, foreign investors, the general public, global index institutions (MSCI/FUTS), and Donald Trump. Findings reveal that at the textual dimension, discourse is constructed through metaphors that de-agentify economic processes, euphemisms that mitigate crisis intensity, and deontic modality that positions a single commentator beyond his professional competence boundary. At the discursive practice dimension, a single source from a capital market perspective and selective intertextuality from global figures produces a monologic narrative. At the social practice dimension, the discourse reproduces ideological formations that collectively naturalize market logic as the sole rational policy framework. Van Leeuwen's analysis reveals an epistemic hierarchy positioning global actors and market players as active, named agents, while affected communities are categorized passively and generically. This study contributes methodologically through demonstrating the analytical productivity of the combined Fairclough–van Leeuwen framework in Indonesian-language digital economic media discourse studies.

Abstract

Stand-up comedy serves not only as entertainment but also as an indirect means of conveying sensitive sociopolitical criticism to the public. This study examines how maxim flouting generates conversational implicatures to convey humor and sociopolitical criticism in the stand-up comedy show Mens Rea. It aims to identify the forms of maxim flouting and conversational implicature found in the show. The study is expected to contribute to the development of pragmatic studies, particularly in understanding the use of conversational implicature in humorous discourse as a medium for conveying sociopolitical criticism. A qualitative descriptive approach was adopted, with utterances that flouted the maxims serving as the primary data source. Data collection was conducted through observation and documentation, by recording Mens Rea’s stand-up comedy shows on Netflix. The recordings were transcribed into text to facilitate data analysis.  Data analysis was conducted using descriptive qualitative methods to identify and interpret flouts of maxims, which reveal the implicit meanings of these utterances, guided by Grice’s (1975) theoretical framework. This study concludes that there are flouts of the maxims of relevance, quantity, and quality. Furthermore, there were both generalized and particularized conversational implicatures, indicating that the interpretation of humor is highly dependent on contextual knowledge of Indonesia's social and political conditions. This underscores that Mens Rea’s stand-up comedy goes beyond mere entertainment, serving as a medium for indirect sociopolitical criticism delivered through humor by flouting the cooperative principle of communication, thereby generating implicit meaning.

Abstract

Indonesian Language for Foreign Speakers (BIPA) instruction plays a strategic role in introducing the Indonesian language and culture to the international community. However, beginner-level BIPA instruction still faces challenges, particularly the limited availability of learning media that are interactive, contextual, and grounded in local culture. Preliminary observations and interviews with BIPA instructors at Universitas Islam Negeri Sumatera Utara revealed that the use of digital media in BIPA instruction remains limited and has not fully integrated the local wisdom of North Sumatra. This study aims to develop a Flipbook incorporating the local wisdom of North Sumatra as an alternative teaching material that is interactive, communicative, and contextual for beginner-level BIPA students, as well as to examine its feasibility and effectiveness. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The Analysis stage was conducted through observation, interviews, and learning needs analysis; the Design stage involved designing the materials, media structure, and integration of local wisdom elements; the Development stage encompassed product development, validation, and revision; the Implementation stage involved trialing the media with beginner-level BIPA students; and the Evaluation stage assessed the feasibility and effectiveness of the media based on the trial results. The findings indicate that product validation by media/instructional technology experts, language experts, and material experts yielded percentages of 87.5%, 93.8%, and 95.8%, respectively, all falling into the "highly feasible" category. The student trial showed a positive response with an average score of 87% (highly feasible category), while pretest–posttest analysis demonstrated the media's effectiveness with a correlation coefficient of R = 0.790 and a coefficient of determination of R² = 0.624. These findings confirm that the Flipbook incorporating the local wisdom of North Sumatra is both feasible and effective for use in beginner-level BIPA instruction, contributing not only to the improvement of students' language proficiency but also to the introduction of Indonesian local culture to international learners.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the forms and factors related to psychopathic behavior in the novel School Intelligence Agency 2 Who is the Mastermind? by IntanZS. This study uses a literary psychology approach with the characteristics of Robert D. Hare's psychopathy as the basis for analysis. The source of the research is the novel, while the data is in the form of novel quotes that show the psychopathic behavior of the characters. The results of the study show that there are several forms of psychopathic behavior in the characters, namely antisocial, manipulative, aggressive, sadistic behavior, and lack of remorse and guilt. Antisocial behavior is shown through the tendency to violate norms and threaten the safety of others. Manipulative behavior is seen through the use of beliefs, lies, and the act of trapping others to achieve certain goals. Aggressive behavior is shown through physical violence and verbal threats. Sadistic behavior is represented through acts of violence and a series of deaths that cause suffering to the victim. Meanwhile, the behavior of not being remorseful and not feeling guilty can be seen from the attitude of the character who remains calm after committing an act that is detrimental or causes the death of others. Factors related to the emergence of these behaviors are mainly seen through the environment and social experiences filled with conflict, pressure, intrigue, betrayal, and violence. Based on these results, it is hoped that this research can be a reference for readers to produce new works, especially those that use literary psychology theories and psychopathic behavior phenomena, as well as encourage further research with more in-depth studies in the fields of literature and psychology.

Abstract

Contemporary literary works can serve as a space for critiquing various forms of injustice and power relations. However, previous studies tend to examine postcolonial, gender, and environmental issues separately, so the connections among these issues in the representation of marginalization have received less attention. This study aims to analyze the representation of the politics of marginalization as well as the forms of agency and resistance strategies of characters in three short stories published by Dalang Publishing: Impian Sulastri by G. Budi Subanar, Rolin by Purwanti Kusumaningtyas, and Kepak Sayap Tekukur Hunai by Maria Teodora Ping. This qualitative study employs critical textual analysis based on Critical Literary Theory and draws on postcolonial, feminist, and ecocritical perspectives. The data consist of narratives, dialogues, monologues, and setting descriptions, which were analyzed through close reading. The findings show that the politics of marginalization appears in three main forms: restrictions on women’s access to education and the influence of colonial power in Impian Sulastri; women’s subordination within domestic relations in Rolin; and environmental destruction and threats to the lives of Indigenous communities in Kepak Sayap Tekukur Hunai. The three short stories also show that marginalized characters retain agency through education, personal decision-making, cultural preservation, and efforts to protect the environment. The study demonstrates that marginalization does not completely eliminate the characters’ capacity to act and resist. Thus, the three short stories represent literature as a space that portrays experiences of marginalization while also highlighting marginalized groups’ capacity to preserve their identity, lives, and communities.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of the 'ghost' symbol in Tere Liye’s novel Tentang Kamu and its function in Sri Ningsih’s character development. Specifically, it aims to describe how the 'ghost' symbol is represented and explain its role in shaping the protagonist’s narrative arc. Employing a descriptive qualitative design, this research utilizes Charles Sanders Peirce’s triadic semiotics, focusing on the symbol category as a sign system that operates beyond visual resemblance (icon) or direct causal connection (index). Within this framework, the 'ghost' symbol is analyzed as a representament pointing to a specific object and generating an interpretant shaped by narrative context and cultural consensus. Textual data comprising words, phrases, and sentences from the novel were collected through close reading and note-taking, and subsequently analyzed through identification, classification, functional interpretation, and synthesis. The findings reveal that the 'ghost' symbol does not denote a supernatural entity, but rather manifests trauma, guilt, and lingering memories that haunt Sri Ningsih, specifically referencing the character Sulastri. Furthermore, the symbol acts as a narrative device that drives internal conflict, reinforces characterization, and bridges key plot points. This study demonstrates how semiotic analysis deepens the understanding of symbolic meaning in Indonesian literature, while offering valuable insights for sign-based character analysis and high school literature instruction.

Abstract

Siak Malay serves as a vital cultural symbol reflecting the historical identity and ecological adaptation of the Riau community. Although numerous dialectological studies on Malay have been conducted, research focusing on the dynamics of local isolects and intergenerational lexical shift patterns in the historical area of the former Siak Sultanate remains limited. This study aims to describe and analyze the phonological variations, ecological lexical characteristics, and sociolinguistic differentiations in the Malay language spoken in Kampung Tua, Sungai Mempura Village, Siak Regency. A qualitative descriptive dialectological approach was employed, involving nine native informants across three observation points (TP). Data were gathered through observation, elicitation, interview, recording, and note-taking techniques using a modified Swadesh word list. The results indicate that phonological variations are dominated by the vowel shift /a/→[o] in open-word final positions (gulo [gulo], apo [apo]), the realization of the phoneme /r/ as a voiced velar fricative [γ] (ghotan [ɣotan]), and sound deletion (elision). Lexically, unique terms reflecting socio-cultural and ecological contexts were identified (sohgang, begile, bangko, menunam-nunam). From a sociolinguistic perspective, the older generation (≥40 years old) serves as the primary retainer of traditional lexicons, whereas the younger generation (20"-" 23 years old) is shifting toward standard Indonesian due to digital media penetration and formal education, despite maintaining strong local phonological traits. In conclusion, the Malay isolect in Kampung Tua, Sungai Mempura retains robust phonological features of Mainland Riau Malay, yet faces lexical attrition among younger speakers, necessitating systematic documentation and preservation efforts.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of social media has transformed digital platforms into influential spaces for promoting financial products and shaping investment decisions through persuasive communication. This development raises a linguistic problem in digital investment fraud, as persuasive messages can construct credibility, influence audience perceptions, and encourage financial decisions through rhetorical and pragmatic strategies that may obscure deceptive meanings. Drawing on Aristotle’s rhetorical appeals of ethos, pathos, and logos (2007), Searle’s Speech Act Theory (1969), Grice’s Conversational Implicature Theory (1975), and forensic linguistic principles, this study aims to analyze the rhetorical and pragmatic strategies employed in Indra Kenz’s Binomo promotional discourse and explain their significance as linguistic evidence. The study provides insights into linguistic indicators of deceptive financial promotion that may support forensic analysis, fraud prevention, and media literacy. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed using ten publicly accessible promotional videos selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through documentation, transcription, and note-taking and analyzed using Miles et al.’s interactive model (2014). The findings reveal that ethos constructs credibility and authority, pathos creates emotional engagement and aspiration, and logos presents investment claims as rational and reasonable. These strategies operate with assertive, directive, and commissive speech acts and conversational implicatures to establish trust and encourage participation in high-risk investment activities. Collectively, these rhetorical and pragmatic patterns constitute language-based evidence for identifying and interpreting deceptive communication in digital financial fraud.

Abstract

The perspectives of girls in adult literature are important to examine because they can reveal experiences of gender injustice through narrative strategies. However, studies integrating Gérard Genette's focalization theory and Judith Butler's gender performativity theory to examine the representation of girls in adult literature remain limited. This study aims to describe the construction of girls' perspectives and the representation of their gender identities in Ziggy Z's short story collection Kapan Nanti. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach. The data consisted of narrative, descriptive, and dialogic excerpts collected through reading and note-taking techniques and analyzed using content analysis based on Genette’s (1980) focalization theory and Butler’s (2002) gender performativity theory. The findings show that zero focalization places girls' experiences within broader social contexts and power relations, internal focalization presents their experiences through the characters' consciousness and interpretation, while external focalization limits access to the characters' voices and inner experiences. These differences show that the presentation of perspective is related to the representation of gender identities shaped through labeling, bodily regulation, violence, trauma, marginalization, and silencing, while also showing resistance to gender norms and power relations. Theoretically, the integration of focalization and gender performativity shows that the way narratives present girls' experiences can be used to understand how their gender identities are constructed, restricted, and resisted within age- and gender-based power relations.
