Abstract

This research is aimed to find out the pattern of thematic progression. The data for this study is derived from Sangkuriang folklore. There were three types of thematic progression found in the text “Sangkuriang” folklore story. They were theme reiteration, the zig-zag pattern and the multiple – rheme pattern. This research was conducted using qualitative support and simple quantitative count for accurance of each types. Theme reiteration is one basic way to keep a text focused to simply reiterate element. As we saw with lexical cohesion, repetition is an effective means of creating cohesion. The Zig-Zag pattern, an element which is introduced in the Rheme in clause gets promoted to become the Theme of clause. This multiple –Rheme pattern is also common in longer expository texts. The multiple – Rheme pattern provides the underlying organizing principle for a text, with both the zig-zag and theme reiteration strategies being used for elaborating on each of the main thematic points.

Sentence and clause types play a big role in identifying the complexity of a sentence. This study aims to identify what are the sentence types and what are the types of subordinate clauses that appear in the data source. The researcher used a qualitative method to analyze the data.

Abstract

This study investigates how grammatical cohesion, particularly reference, is used to build meaning and narrative depth in Edgar Allan Poe’s short story The Tell-Tale Heart. The aim is to examine what types of reference are used and how they contribute to the story’s overall cohesion and psychological atmosphere. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the analysis applies Halliday and Hasan’s model of reference, which includes personal, demonstrative, and comparative forms. The findings show that personal references, such as “I,” “my,” and “he”, are used extensively, shaping the story’s intense first-person perspective and reflecting the narrator’s obsessive mindset. Demonstrative references like “that eye” or “this work” highlight specific objects of fixation and carry symbolic meaning. Although less common, comparative references help express the narrator’s inflated sense of control and precision. Overall, the study finds that reference in Poe’s story does more than link sentences, it acts as a powerful stylistic tool that reveals character psychology and intensifies the narrative’s suspense. Keywords: grammatical cohesion, reference, stylistics, narrative, Edgar Allan Poe

Abstract

This study aims to determine the occurrence of onomatopoeia in the Star Wars bounty hunters comic. Comic books are currently available in both hardcopy and digital formats, with the majority being purchased online. Onomatopoeia is an important part of comics because they use words to reflect the sounds and movements that occur in a panel. This is important because novels have limited space to explain scenarios with a large number of words. The data obtained from this study used the observation method with the following steps, first by reading, second by taking notes, and third by classifying. This study was analyzed qualitatively by using Bredin's Onomatopoeic Type Theory (1996) and analyzing its meaning using Thomas's theory (1995). Based on the results of the analysis, of onomatopoeia were found in a webcomic entitled Star Wars Bounty Hunters. This type of direct onomatopoeia was found more frequently than the other two forms, which are 85 direct onomatopoeia.

Abstract

This study explores how characters in Assassin’s Creed: Shadows deliberately flout Grice’s conversational maxims and how these subtle pragmatic strategies are carried over into Indonesian translation. The research aims to show not only why these flouts occur in the game’s dialogue, but also how their implied meanings (are maintained?) survive when transferred into another language. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the study examined 25 utterances that intentionally break the maxims of Quality, Quantity, Relevance, and Manner, focusing on how each line functions within its original gameplay situation. The analysis reveals that maxim flouting plays an important role in shaping the story: it conveys sarcasm, tension, power dynamics, narrative suspense, and emotional undercurrents that are not directly spoken. The findings also show that these effects remain clear in the Indonesian version through communicative equivalence, allowing the same implications to be understood by players across languages. Overall, this study highlights that maxim flouting in video games is more than a stylistic choice; it is a narrative and cross-cultural communicative tool that helps maintain the story’s intent and emotional weight in translation.

Abstract

This study explores the lyrics of OneRepublic’s album Native to uncover the deep human emotions and experiences hidden within the songs. The goal is to identify different types of figurative language, explain how they function within the music, and understand why these "hidden messages" are important to the listener. To keep the findings clear and organized, the study uses a quantitative method according to Sudalryalnto (1993) to track and count the data. The analysis is built on two key academic theories: Knickerbocker and Reninger (1974:283): This theory is used to identify and categorize the specific types of figurative language found across the 12 songs. And Leech (1981:9-19): This theory is applied to explain the deeper meanings behind the lyrics, providing a more effective way to interpret what the songwriter is trying to communicate. By combining these two theories, the research offers a structured look at how creative language helps express complex feelings in popular music.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of esteem needs and psychological defense mechanisms in Luca Guadagnino’s film, Challengers (2024), utilizing Abraham Maslow’s humanistic motivation theory. Through a qualitative content analysis, this paper investigates the divergent psychological trajectories of Tashi Duncan, Art Donaldson, and Patrick Zweig. The findings reveal that Tashi’s post-injury transformation into a hyper-controlling strategist serves as a vicarious mechanism to sustain external prestige. Conversely, Art exhibits an internal confidence vacuum coupled with the impostor phenomenon, while Patrick represents internal self-adequacy paired with a severe deficit in social standing. Ultimately, this study demonstrates that competing pursuits of self-worth within a shared social circle turn interpersonal connections into transactional power struggles, proving that external recognition cannot substitute for intrinsic self-acceptance.
