Abstract

The status and role of women in familial, social, and cultural contexts remain persistent themes in both modern and classical fiction, including traditional folk tales. For past generations, folk tales often served as a medium for expressing social realities and moral reflections, particularly concerning the position of women within the family. This research investigates the portrayal of women in the folk tale Malin Deman and Puti Bungsu, with the aim of describing and analyzing gender roles and biases embedded in the narrative. Using a qualitative method with a discourse analysis approach, the study relies on literature review and narrative analysis techniques, focusing on a feminist perspective. The results reveal three key findings. First, female characters are portrayed as passive, forgiving, non-aggressive, and aligned with traditional ideals of femininity. Second, these characters are depicted as incapable of altering their destinies without male intervention, reinforcing dependency. Third, women are shown as victims of male domination, abuse, and objectification. The study concludes that such representations reinforce entrenched gender stereotypes, promoting the ideal woman as beautiful, graceful, submissive, and helpless without male support. These portrayals pose a significant challenge to the feminist movement and the broader pursuit of gender equality in contemporary society.

Abstract

The background of this study lies in the partner's need for additional dance materials to diversify tourist performances and enrich the artistic offerings of their community-run studio. The objective is to analyze the collaborative process between the choreographer (researcher) and the local art studio, Sanggar Sekar Segara Madu, in developing an original dance performance. This research aims to empower the art community in Tanjung Benoa Village through the collaborative creation of the Kamala Madya dance. A qualitative method was employed, using reflective narrative techniques and in-depth interviews with dancers and facilitators to gather data. The results show that the collaboration successfully produced the Kamala Madya dance, which is artistically valuable and culturally grounded in Hindu philosophical principles. The choreographer and composer translated creative concepts into choreography and music, while the partners contributed by designing costumes and mobilizing local dancer talent. This collaborative effort has positively impacted the local community by fostering cultural expression, strengthening local identity, and enhancing the studio’s repertoire. In conclusion, this study demonstrates how participatory choreography can be a powerful tool for community empowerment, with implications for sustaining local cultural industries and encouraging further research into collaborative arts practices and their role in preserving cultural heritage.

Abstract

This study explored the impact of transitioning from distance learning modality to limited in-person classes to students in a higher education institution in the Philippines had caused psychological impact to working students in a tertiary institution. Ten working students were chosen purposively to participate in this phenomenological study. They were breadwinners in their families and claimed they were psychologically impacted by the transitions brought about by the pandemic because of the emotional distress and anxiety. The data was gathered through interviews with a validated interview guide from field experts and was analyzed using thematic analysis. Researchers also considered ethical considerations in conducting research for participants. The results revealed that participants experienced varied impacts, particularly in adjusting their daily routines, facing technological and financial challenges, managing stress in physical, psychological, and mental aspects, and adapting to socialization and communication changes. Despite these challenges, they expressed increased adaptability and resilience, maintaining positive attitudes and aspirations to continue learning. Effective time management, adjustments to learning modalities, and clear policies were identified as key factors that could have eased their transition. The study recommends that students should fully commit to balancing both work and study. Higher education institutions (HEIs) can support them by providing psychological assistance, flexible learning options, academic guidance, wellness programs, financial aid, and partnerships with local businesses to help them sustain their education while working.

Abstract

In today’s digital era, young children are increasingly exposed to a vast array of apps, games, and videos. Amid this digital abundance, an urgent educational need has emerged, particularly for Javanese youth readers to understand how digital formats influence their literacy skills. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of digital fairy tale flipping manuscripts in supporting the learning process of reading Javanese script texts. A quantitative experimental method was employed, involving a sample of 60 students. Data were collected using a test instrument and a questionnaire developed by the researchers. The test assessed reading ability, while the questionnaire gathered insights on learners’ perceptions and experiences. The findings indicate that the use of digital fairy tales with flipping manuscript features significantly enhances the students’ ability to recognize and read Javanese letters. The interactive nature of the digital format was found to increase engagement, comprehension, and retention compared to traditional methods. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that digital flipping fairy tales can effectively support the learning of Javanese script, offering an innovative and engaging medium for preserving and promoting regional literacy in the digital age.

Abstract

This study critically examines the intertextual transformation from the Balinese Kidung Jerum Kundangdia to Oka Rusmini's Novel Jerum (2019), focusing on how this dialogue articulates women's emotional resistance against patriarchal constraints. It addresses a gap in understanding how traditional Nusantara narratives can be dynamically reinterpreted to foreground female subjectivity and agency. Employing a qualitative approach grounded in Riffaterre's semiotics, the research identifies the kidung as the generative hypogram. It traces how Rusmini's novel utilizes the shared matrix of satya (loyalty) while foregrounding semara (passionate love) as a model for emotional expression and resistance. Data, derived from close textual analysis and archival documentation of both primary sources, were analyzed through thematic content analysis and feminist discourse analysis. The findings demonstrate that Jerum critically reorients reader empathy towards the protagonist Ni Jerum's suppressed inner life, repositioning her as an active agent challenging societal norms. Simultaneously, the novel revitalizes core motifs from the kidung tradition for contemporary gender discourse. This research significantly contributes to Nusantara literary and gender studies by illustrating the dynamic reciprocity between source text and adaptation. It affirms the power of intertextual strategies within local traditions to advocate for women's emotional legitimacy and resistance, enriching the treasury of text-based gender analysis in the region.

Abstract

This study explores the evolving perception of the kembar buncing custom among the Bali Aga community, where the birth of unlike sex twins was traditionally considered a taboo, believed to bring misfortune and resulting in social stigma, exile, and financial burdens for affected families. In recent years, however, the perception has shifted toward greater inclusivity, with such births increasingly viewed as symbolic representations of harmony between good and evil. The study aims to understand the dynamics of this cultural transformation and its broader implications for preserving Bali Aga identity amid the pressures of modernity. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, non-participatory interviews, document analysis, and focus group discussions (FGDs). The analysis followed the Miles and Huberman model, involving data reduction, data display, and verification to ensure systematic interpretation. The theoretical framework is informed by Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of habitus, which provides tools for analyzing how social dispositions evolve through interactions with structural forces and through the strategic use of various forms of capital: economic, social, cultural, and symbolic. The findings reveal that the transformation of the kembar buncing custom is driven by regulatory adaptation, cultural negotiation, hegemonic resistance, and symbolic reconstruction. Changes in community habitus, shaped by the strategic mobilization of capital by key social actors, have contributed to a shift in customary paradigms. This transformation suggests the need to recontextualize traditional customs within contemporary frameworks, not only to ensure cultural sustainability but also to advance human rights and social inclusion within the Bali Aga society.

Abstract

In Hindu religious activities, Dharma Wacana must be delivered in an efficient manner in order for the public to accept the spiritual message. The Pendharma Wacana's proficiency in conveying the message is crucial to the transmission of this dharma message. However, particularly in Pura Agung Tirta Bhuana Bekasi, there aren't many Pendharma Wacana that play the role of personal branding in promoting the dissemination of Hindu doctrines. This research methodology combines a case study technique with a qualitative approach. Seven (seven) Pendharma Wacana with a variety of backgrounds. The results demonstrate that trustworthiness is increased by careful preparation, which includes mastery of appearance, practice, and substance. Congregational comprehension is facilitated by distinctive communication styles like humor, intonation, and simple language. Furthermore, their image as role models is reinforced by their traditional appearance (white attire, saput, and characteristic accessories) and their consistent application of everyday Hindu ideals. In addition to making it easier to distribute religious content, Pendharma Wacana's personal branding helps the congregation develop strong emotional ties when coaching is being provided. Their religious expertise, communication abilities, and moral character all contribute to their increased social acceptance. Particularly in urban settings, this study makes a significant contribution to the advancement of contemporary Hindu lecture techniques. In addition to enhancing the idea of religious communication, the theoretical and practical implications of the eight elements that make up Pendharma Wacana's personal branding also provide a strategic framework for the creation of flexible communal communication tactics in large cities.
