Abstract

Literacy practices are often represented in various media through literary works such as novels, films, and others. Literary works are the result of literacy practices, and the values of literacy practices are sometimes incorporated into literary works through the characters in them. However, readers often ignore the value of literacy in literary works. Literacy is more than just the cognitive ability to read and write; it also refers to what people do with literacy. Literacy can be represented in several forms and used for different purposes, one of which is power. The literacies in The Queen's Gambit novel represent power in the eyes of Beth Harmon. The power of literacy gained by Beth is represented by improving social class and increasing popularity, which later impacted her gender roles. The purpose of this study is to display literacy representation as power and its impact on gender roles in Beth Harmon, the main character in The Queen's Gambit novel. The method used is textual analysis, the main source of which is the novel The Queen's Gambit by Walter Tevis, using the framework of New Literacy Studies (NLS) as a social practice of literacy perspective using the theory of Williams and Zenger (2007) from their book "Popular Culture and Representation Literacy". The results of the study show that literacy can be powerful and impact Beth Harmon's gender roles. Keywords: representation, literacy, power, gender roles

Abstract

“Knocking On Heaven's Door” is a song by Bob Dylan written in 1973. This song is unique because it was created after Dylan's mysterious accident in 1966 and that accident put him on hiatus for some time. After returning, there were changes in his works; so the researcher thought there were things related to Dylan's psychological side. This research used the psychoanalytic theory proposed by Jacques Lacan. In analyzing the lyrics of “Knocking On Heaven's Door”, the researcher finds that Bob Dylan as the lyricist is a subject of lack and that lack brings the desire to him. Dylan has a desire for self-authenticity. Thus, it can be concluded that the lyrics of “Knocking On Heaven's Door” are metaphors and metonyms from Bob Dylan's life. Keywords: song lyric, lacan, bob dylan, desire, 'I'.

Abstract

AbstrakPenelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk menemukan representasi feminisme yang digambarkan dalam film Black WIdow (2021) dengan menggunakan teori Semiotic oleh John Fiske. Teori semiotika merupakan ilmu yang mempelajari tentang tanda dan bagaimana makna dari tanda yang dibentuk di dalam teks media dari jenis karya apapun dalam masyarakat yang meliputi level realitas, level presentasi, dan level ideologi. Film Black WIdow (2021) mengisahkan tentang perjuangan perempuan untuk mendapat identitasnya sendiri dengan cara keluar dari kediktatoran kaum laki-laki sebagai pihak yang berkuasa dalam ranah publik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kode-kode dalam film Black WIdow (2021) merepresentasikan nilai feminisme pada level realitas melalui kode penampilan, kostum, tata rias, lingkungan, perilaku, gaya berbicara, gestur, dan ekpresi. Level representasi untuk menandakan feminisme terlihat pada perpindahan kamera, latar dan pencahayaan, musik dan narasi, dialog, karakter dan aksi, serta konflik. Pada level ideologi tergambarkan nilai feminisme yang menunjukkan ideologi feminisme dengan aliran feminisme eksistentialisme karena konflik utama dalam film ini adalah perampasan identitas perempuan oleh laki-laki dengan tujuan memperbudak perempuan agar hanya patuh pada pihak laki-laki yang memiliki kuasa atas dirinya. Setelah menganalisis Black Widow menggunakan Semiotika oleh John Fiske, peniliti dapat menyimpulkan bahwa feminisme terutama membahas tentang perjuangan melawan perbudakan dan perampasan identitas dengan melalui cara berpenampilan, menyusun rencana, menjalankan aksi, dan penyelesaian konflik, yang terepresentasikan dari kode-kode dalam teori The Codes of Television oleh John Fiske yang mengandung level reality, level representasi, dan level ideology.Kata Kunci: Representasi Feminisme, Semiotika, Film AbstractThis study aims to find a representation of feminism depicted in the film Black WIdow (2021) using the Semiotic theory by John Fiske. Semiotic theory is the study of signs and how the meanings of signs are formed in media texts from any type of work in society which includes the level of reality, the level of presentation, and the level of ideology. The film Black WIdow (2021) tells the story of a woman's struggle to gain her own identity by getting out of the dictatorship of men as the ruling party in the public sphere. The results of the research show that the codes in the Black WIdow (2021) represent the value of feminism at the level of reality through codes of appearance, costumes, make-up, environment, behavior, speech styles, gestures, and expressions. The level of representation for representation of feminism can be seen in the movement of camera, setting and lighting, music and narration, dialogue, character and action, and conflict. At the ideological level, the value of feminism is depicted which shows the ideology of feminism with the flow of existential feminism because the main conflict in this film is the usurpation of women's identities by men with the aim of enslaving women so that they only obey men who have power over them. After analyzing Black WIdow (2021), researchers can conclude that feminism mainly discusses the struggle against slavery and deprivation of identity through appearance, planning, action and conflict resolution, which are represented by the codes in The Codes of Television theory which contains a level of reality, level of representation, and level of ideology.Keywords: Feminism Representation, Semiotics, Film

Abstract

There are many types of exploitation ,such as nature exploitation, animal exploitation, etc. According to (Tomaskovic-Devey & Avent-Holt, 2019), "Exploitation is a situation when one party uses their position to their advantage at the expense of the other." This research analyzes Okja (2017), which focuses primarily on the acts of cruelty that may occur in actual animal farms and how Mirando Corporation exploits Okja and even Mija. The researcher mostly discusses animal abuse and cruelty, human exploitation of animals, the motive of why they do this animal exploitation and the social lessons that may be learned from this film. The researcher used Greg Garrad's idea of Ecocriticism and the Five Freedoms of Animal Welfare to carry out this study. The researcher uses screenshots and Scripts from Okja (2017) as data sources. The result of this study found that Mirando Corporation violated 4 points in 5 freedom of animal welfare, such as making the animal feel pain, making the animal feel discomfort, making the animal fear and stress, and lastly, making the animal cannot behave as usual. All these types of violations were carried out because Lucy Mirando wanted to solve world hunger and make her company name to be liked by people and media, from the most hated Agro chemical company in the world to the most likeable miracle pig company. But they need to tell white lies to the people and media about their super pig and just want to make a profit from GM animals.

Abstract

Magical elements do in fact exist, and their presence cannot be explained by human understanding of the outside world (Srikanth. 2014: 331). It is thought that magical realism blurs the distinction between reality and magic by fusing the two concepts into one. Kimi no Na wa (Your Name.) is a CoMix Wave Films anime film directed and written by Makoto Shinkai. It tells the story of two high school students, Mitsuha and Taki. Who one day, they both wake up to find that they have switched bodies. They believe body-swapping is not a coincidence, but rather a consequence of a mysterious event that is connected to their pasts. This research aims to identify the elements of magical realism portrayed in the film, and explore the connections between magical realism to determine the impact of the elements of magical realism on the structure of the film. In this research, the researcher will analyze the elements of magical realism in the movie Kimi no Na wa by Makoto Shinkai, with Wendy B. Faris' five magical realism elements theory. Subtitles and Screenshots from the film Kimi no Na wa are being used by the researcher as data sources. There are also many components that can be considered as elements of magical realism in this movie which are unfortunately rarely discussed in the community. The results of this research found that Makoto Shinkai’s film Kimi no Na wa is categorized as a work of magical realism literature, because it contains 5 characteristics of magical realism. And the significant impact of magical realism elements on the structure of the film is its disruption to the traditional narrative structures.Keywords: Magical, Realism, Magical Realism, Anime, Kimi no Na wa, Makoto Shinkai.
