Abstract

This study aims to reveal the articulation of state formation as depicted in Hikayat Raja-Raja Pasai and Ādiparwa by examining the hunting events narrated in both texts. By employing the narratology to analyze the events comparatively, this study finds that in the Malay Hikayat, the hunting carried out by Raja Ahmad and Merah Silu (Sultan Maliku’l-Saleh) is incidental, as instead of encountering animal as the primary target, they encounter other objects, directly signifying the formation of a state—namely genealogy and the city/palaces founding as a form of territorialization. Meanwhile, in the Ādiparwa, the hunting is not incidental; the actors do encounter their game (deer), but it results in a curse and death. Nevertheless, hunting articulates genealogy and rituals demonstrating the grandeur of the state. The Malay text originates from the 14th century Sultanate of Samudera-Pasai and was written to justify the relocation of the capital to Pasai for security and defense. In contrast, the Old Javanese text was written in the 10th century under the patronage of Dharmawangśa Tĕguh, aiming to build a myth of descent as a form of political cultural capital. This study contributes to decolonial practice by challenging Geertz's notion that ignores the significance of manuscript. Otherwise, this study sheds light that hunting in the texts is not merely the relation between the king and the game, but discursively also Shapes the political symbol regarding the understanding the historiography of state formation in Southeast Asia. However, as both texts belong to court literature, they tend to reflect elite perspectives and may overlook subaltern voices. Therefore, cross-source analysis and corroboration are necessary to strengthen our understanding of state formation in Indonesia and Southeast Asia.

Abstract

In early 2025, numerous cases of human rights violations in the circus industry emerged in Indonesia, bringing public attention to the exploitation of both workers and animals. This study explores the portrayal of exploitation in Francis Lawrence’s Water for Elephants through Karl Marx’s theory of labor exploitation combined with the animal ethics perspective of Singer and Regan, presenting an insightful dual perspective in film analysis. This qualitative research employs a literature study method, analyzing scenes, dialogues, and visual elements of the film. The findings reveal that Water for Elephants portrays various indicators of exploitation: hazardous work conditions, low wages, lack of healthcare access, abuse, and poor living conditions. These conditions reflect capitalist-driven oppression for profit maximization in circus environments. The study concludes that the movie serves as a critical commentary on the ethical implications of labor and animal rights violations, reinforcing the need for broader societal awareness and reform in the treatment of both humans and animals in entertainment sectors.

Abstract

The occurrence of xenoglossophilia in non-English speaking countries has recently become attention among scholars due to the rise of technology. It makes it easier for brands to promote through social media content. Some skincare brands routinely post content to attract the market, thus making skincare marketing so dynamic. The objective of this paper is to explore the phenomenon of xenoglossophilia in certain countries and provide a new understanding of how English dominance, the absence of a native language, and script choice impact the situation. Thus, this study will contribute to marketers, linguists, and academics. This research was a multiple-case analysis that employed multiple-analyst triangulation in analyzing data on social media content from some brands in Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and China. The results of the study showed English was chosen for their promotional text. Surprisingly, brands from Indonesia have 0,005 percent of full native language frequency in their content, while brands from China employ 100 percent English in their content. Here, English was seen as the dominant language among the countries, although they still had their native language. The absence of the native language is seen in some brands from some countries for any reason. Therefore, some brands still consider having copywriting in their native script related to their main target audience. From the data, we concluded that the use of English in social media content is considered a strategy to gain more market share in the global economy without purposefully irritating nationalism among the countries.

Abstract

Ritual language in Manggarai holds profound cultural-ecological significance, as it encodes collective values, environmental wisdom, and human–nature interdependence. Yet, despite eco-linguistic concerns over how language shapes and reflects ecological relationships, the lexicons of Teing Hang Woja have not previously been examined through this perspective. This study aims to describe the ideology and meaning of lexicons used in the ritual text of the teing hang woja in the speech Community of Manggarai, Flores Indonesia. This study also aims to describe the shift in the lexicons in the text as a result of changes in people's social activities. This is qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Data were collected through interviews, participative observation, and Focus Group Discussion. Ten key informants were selected for interviews and FGD needs with several criteria. The results showed that the lexicons in the ritual text of teing hang woja contained the ideology of asking for an abundance of water, smoothness, and success of the agricultural process which were closely related to the socio-cultural conditions of the people as farmers. However, along with the social development of the community, the ideology contained in the text then expanded to other aspects such as the pleading for the success of the livestock business, education, and public health of the speakers. Meanwhile, the meaning contained in the text is more about stylistic meaning, affective meaning, social and reflective or spiritual meaning. The lexical analysis in Teing Hang Woja text not only provides insights into Manggarai's cultural ecology but also enriches eco-linguistic studies, emphasizing the importance of understanding language in efforts to safeguard ecological sustainability.
