Animal Farm contains the power gap that causes injustice to the minor characters. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristic elements of dialogue among the minor characters and the characteristics of the government system that are reflected in Animal Farm by George Orwell. In analyzing the voices of the minor characters, the theory is used by the Bakhtin theory of dialogism. Meanwhile, in analyzing the government system that reflected in Animal Farm used the theory of totalitarianism by Friedrich and Brzezinski. This study also used a qualitative method. In this study, the characteristic elements of dialogue are divided into two; discourse of authority and internally persuasive discourse. Discourse of authority consists of monological communication and hallmark. Internally persuasive discourse consists of dialogical communication which has empathy, beliefs, ideas, awareness, and confusion characteristics. Meanwhile the government system that is reflected in Animal Farm is similar to totalitarianism which fits into its six characteristics; official ideology, single party, terroristic police control, monopoly system related to communication, party’s monopoly related to opposition, and economic central control. This study definitively answers the questions regarding the characteristic elements of dialogue among the minor characters and the characteristics of totalitarianism as the government system that is reflected in Animal Farm.]]>

<![CDATA[The novel “Paper Towns” in a mystery and young-adult genre tells about Q’s adventures with his friends in his search for Margo. This study aims to identify the types of speech acts that appear in John Green’s novel “Paper Towns”. Speech acts are a subfield of pragmatics that studies how words are used not only to present information but also to perform actions. The theory used is Austin’s theory (1962) where Austin divides into three categories of speech acts: locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary. This study uses a qualitative data analysis method based on Miles, Huberman, and Saldana (2014). The data were taken from John Green’s novel “Paper Towns” and analyzed by reading as much of the novel as possible and trying to understand all the conversations. The researcher categorizes several dialogues that show the types of speech acts in the Paper Towns novel and the meanings of speech acts based on the context of the characters. The results of the study show that the types of speech act in John Green’s novel “Paper Towns” include locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary acts and the meaning of each utterance of the characters in the novel is in accordance with Austin’s theory. The conclusion of this study is that the characters in John Green's novel “Paper Towns” use more illocutionary speech acts in each of their speeches and the meaning of each speech act uttered by the characters in the novel is in accordance with the theory put forward by Austin, where locutionary acts are used by characters to say something according to the true meaning. Illocutionary acts are performed by characters to state or inform something that has an implied meaning and purpose. And perlocutionary acts are used by characters so that the interlocutor obeys the wishes of the character. Keywords: Speech Acts, A Locutionary, An Illocutionary, A Perlocutionary, and Novel]]>

This study aims to identify the phenomenon of gender stereotypes found in the Disney movie Moana on the main character of the Disney movie Moana and describe how gender stereotypes apply through the characteristics in the Disney movie Moana which are represented by the main female character in the movie. The research method that researchers use is a qualitative research method, namely by watching the Disney Moana movie through the website, Disney Hotstar. The findings of this study demonstrate that Moana possesses eight traits, including optimism, high curiosity, daredevilry, independence, stubbornness, smarts, and open-mindedness. Additionally, Moana's actions as the primary characte or character in the movie mirror the prejudices that were attributed to her when the Disney movie Moana first came out. The two points in this instance where gender stereotypes are applied to the lead character of the Disney movie Moana are Moana's leadership qualities as a female and main character, which in this case can be proven by how Moana solves all the problems she faces without assistance from others, and Moana's struggle to obtain her freedom, which can be demonstrated by her achieving her desire to save Motunui Island from darkness and disaster]]>

Then the presence of an ideal image in the form of being recognized as a brave and great woman becomes the desire that Agatha Cristie strives for through the antagonist Nick Buckley. The third desire is the search for another object because of lost love. Then the fourth desire, in the form of presenting a manipulative character in Nick Buckley, becomes Agatha's way of fulfilling her desire to gain compassion or attention from readers and other characters in the novel. So the correlation between the creation of manipulative traits that secretly control other characters to obtain personal gain by Nick Buckley helps manifest Agatha Crishtie's passion as an author. Childhood life, death and divorce from her husband were the main factors in Agatha acting as the subject of the novel Hotel Majestic – Peril at End House.Key words: Lacan, desire, manipulative, Agatha Cristie, Nick Buckley ]]>
