<![CDATA[In today’s digital technology era, humans orientate toward material fulfillment. This manner often neglects his care about nonhuman organisms and the natural environment in general. The impacts are that nowadays temperature is getting higher and biodiversity is dwindling or disappearing due to the rising temperature and deforested lands. Global warming is the ongoing climatic phenomenon that is now prevalent on earth today along with the surging digitalization in daily social and cultural life. Humans need to retreat and think it over in order to prevent the condition from deteriorating and from further catastrophes. Poetry as one literary genre might be one outlet for humans to think about what it means to be humans in this one and only earth household. Contemporary American poems are the epitome of raising present issues about anthropocentrism and its impacts on the degradation of the physical environment. This brief paper discusses some American contemporary poems of Denise Levertov, Susan Stewart, and Robinson Jeffers. Levertov’s poem “Brother Ivy”; Stewart’s long poem “The Rose”; and Jeffers’s poem, “Life from the Lifeless” are the epitome of poetic works that aim to humanize and anthropomorphize nonhuman things and organisms such as forest, rock, and plant. These are the actions humans should do to preserve the biotic life from demolition because of various anthropogenic activities. Reading and understanding ecological views in these poems as a poetic discourse helps ones to ecologize their thoughts and action to sustain the planetary robustness.]]>

<![CDATA[Considering that the issue of sex and gender is getting more and more complicated, the aim of this paper is to deal with the struggle to accept unique gender identity faced by a young female main character with intersex condition as depicted in the novel entitled None of the Above (2015) written by I.W. Gregorio. To support the analysis certain concepts are borrowed. Based on the complicated and nonlinear relation between sex and gender as detected by Butler, the focus is on the notion of intersex condition, the medical awareness of intersex condition, the meaning of intersex condition, the proposed medical solution for intersex person, and a specific intersex condition called AIS. The research methods used to support the analysis are a combination of library research method, qualitative research method, and contextual research method in the research frame of feminist literary criticism. The results shows that even in the modern world, a person with intersex condition is still considered as a freak who has to struggle painfully, bitterly, and traumatically to understand, overcome, and finally accept her condition. Understanding and support from medical circle, family and close relative, and some open-minded people, help the young intersex female gain her life back as a female whatever her chromosome is.]]>

<![CDATA[This paper aims to identify the types of deixis and their implications employed by Retno Marsudi’s speech about a new paradigm for the current world crisis during the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in September 2022. The researchers employed qualitative descriptive methods to answer the aims of the study. The steps conducted were finding and downloading the video of speech delivered by Retno Marsudi at the UNGA in September 2022 on YouTube, transcribing the speech delivered in the video, collecting the deictic expressions present in the speech transcription, classifying the categories of deictic expressions, and lastly interpreting the purpose of the deixis use according to the content of the speech. The findings indicate that the most used deixis in Retno Marsudi’s speech is Time deixis with 67 occurrences, followed by Person deixis with 55 occurrences, Discourse deixis with 22 occurrences, Social deixis with 5 occurrences, and Place deixis with 1 occurrence. The findings show different outcome with the previous studies concerned with speeches or lectures. It can be implied that Marsudi mostly employed Time deixis because she wanted to emphasize the urgency of her proposed solutions to overcome the world crisis. Furthermore, she wanted to take the audience into thinking about past events as lessons, the current situation as facts happening today worldwide, and the future positive possibilities if Indonesia’s proposed paradigm could be implemented. Hopefully, this paper could help readers to understand the use and implications of deictic expressions found in Marsudi’s speech related to the context.]]>

<![CDATA[Descriptive text is one of the genres which is included in the English Curriculum for the Tenth Graders of Senior High schools in Indonesia. The identification of the descriptive text is usually the main idea of the paragraph or called a general statement, and the description of the descriptive text is about the explanation of the general statement or main idea or supporting details to the general statement. Portfolio Assessment Plan (PAP) is one of formative assessment that becomes an alternative tool for assessing in English language teaching classrooms, including writing skills. The portfolio procedures comprise the collection, selection, self-assessment, reflection, and delayed evaluation and are embedded within multiple feedback sources. Possible challenges come up in implementing this PAP, such as the students could run of time before they finish the work, searching the information from Google could distract students, and similar writing could happen between students. To address the possible challenges above, there are some solutions. First, teachers have to notice the ‘insufficient learner engagement. Second, reminding them to use their time wisely by searching the useful information only is needed. Third, it needs the teachers’ management when find there is the same topic used by the students.]]>

<![CDATA[Arabian Sands tells of a man from England who was born in Ethiopia and then explored the Arabian Desert called Rub Al Khali. This book is a travel writing based on the author's experience. In the book, the writer's sense of superiority and great respect for the Beduin, tribe who has long occupied Rub Al Khali is described. When viewed from the study of travel literature, this matter can be said to self and other representations. Therefore, this article will look at how the author describes self and others in the context of travel literature. The material object in this study is the book, Arabian Sands, while the formal object of this research is the representation of self and others in the perspective of Carl Thompson's travel writing. This research uses a descriptive-analytic research method. The results of the analysis of this novel show that there is a distance between the self and others that the author raises. In other words, even though the writer describes others positively, indirectly the writer has also described his position as self which is different from the place, culture, and people he meets in his travels. Apart from that, the writer also positions himself as other than his culture as Western because of the adaptations made to the eastern regions he visited. Thus, this novel shows the existence of dualism in representing self and other.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to explain the ways in which the main character's attachment to the white tiger figure can impact his personality and to describe the coping strategies that the main character employs in response to the white tiger attachment. The result of this research indicates that the main character, Margio, is depicted having deviant personalities after he believes that he possesses a white tiger inside his body. Margio’s belief in the attachment of the white tiger then led him to have deviant actions. Margio’s belief of white tiger figure can be explained by the cause of suggestion from the elders and childhood trauma he experienced from his abusive father. Margio’s deviant personalities also can be explained with coping strategies perspective. In the story, Margio portrays some coping strategies to cope with his problems. They are fantasy, denial, suppression, repression, and displacement. In conducting this study, I use psychological approaches by Sigmund Freud and coping strategies perspective. The novel Man Tiger by Eka Kurniawan is used as the primary data of this study and which was then analyzed using descriptive qualitative methods to achieve the purpose of the study. Based on the study's findings, it can be concluded that Margio, the main character of Kurniawan’s novel Man Tiger is depicted having deviant personalities. Margio’s deviant personality is caused by his belief of possessing an attachment with the white tiger figure inside his body. Moreover, Margio’s deviant personalities are also caused by the suggestion he received when he was child and his childhood trauma. In addition, the deviant actions also can be seen from coping strategies which are fantasy, denial, suppression, repression, and displacement.]]>

<![CDATA[In a capitalist society, there are two classes based on ownership of the means of production: the working class and the capitalist class. However, the emergence of this stratification sometimes leads to large disparities and differences in interests between classes that lead to oppression by the upper class and resistance from the lower class. Aravind Adiga's The White Tiger depicts class struggle as a form of lower-class resistance to upper-class oppression in India. The purpose of this study is to identify the forms of oppression of the capitalist class and explain how the working class conducts class struggle against the oppression. The method used is a qualitative study and analyzed using Marxist theory by Karl Marx. The White Tiger indicates that oppression occurs because of the capitalist class' desire to maintain its power and status quo. The working class are depicted as the party that is always disadvantaged. Eventually, this triggers resistance in the form of class struggle by the working class. Adiga seems to convey that the power and injustice of the capitalist class is a cause for resistance because it tends to harm the working class.]]>
