Abstract

Although Scottish folktales form part of the broader European tradition, they remain underrepresented in global folklore studies. Meanwhile, Scottish tales are rich with cultural traditions and national identity, which tend to be marginalized by the British tales. This article examines the portrayal of death in The Milk-White Doo, a Scottish fairy tale, using an interdisciplinary approach that combines folkloristics and literary analysis. Drawing on the Thompson Motif-Index, Propp’s Morphology of the Folktale, and Victor Turner’s theory of liminality, the study identifies four dominant motifs: unnatural cruelty, animal transformation, reincarnation, and reward and punishment. In addition, it also discusses how death functions structurally through the narrative roles of absentation, villainy, victory, and wedding. The analysis highlights how death is depicted not as an end, but as a liminal process marked by separation, transition, and incorporation. This transformation serves to restore moral and familial order, which reflects historical beliefs in death as a just consequence for wrongdoing. By situating death within a ritual and symbolic framework, the study contributes to broader discussions on justice, grief, and renewal in folklore. It also encourages further research into how modern adaptations reshape traditional death motifs to align with modern cultural values.

Abstract

This study highlights the importance of examining children’s language use in Javanese literary media as an indicator of language mastery and development. Focusing on the Gurit Bocah section of Belik magazine, this research investigates adjective collocations produced by children by examining their morphological forms and lexical meanings. The data were analyzed using distributional and referential methods. The findings reveal that children predominantly use monomorphemic adjectives, while polymorphemic forms appear through affixation, reduplication, and a combination of compounding and reduplication, totaling fourteen identified forms. In terms of collocation, adjectives consistently combine with multiple nouns and form systematic patterns. These patterns are classified into four semantic groups: (1) physical and natural environment, (2) feelings and mental conditions, (3) values and evaluations, and (4) activities and states. These findings indicate that children’s adjective use in Javanese literary texts is systematic rather than random, reflecting both morphological competence and lexical–semantic awareness shaped by their experiential world and the literary context of Belik magazine.
