Abstract

In this study, the researcher discussed the use of Politeness in the first presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, President Trump and former VP Biden Face Off in First Presidential Debate.  In this study, the researcher aims to find out about the types of politeness used by the two debaters in the two debates and the differences in the use of politeness based on a gender perspective.  In determining this, the researcher uses the theory of Brown and Levinson (1987) and Sara Mills (2003).  In researching the problem the researcher used a qualitative descriptive method. The researchers found the use of politeness was found based on Brown and Levinson's theory and there were differences in the use of the four types of sub-strategies in the two debates like Bald on record (Showing disagreement, Give advice and Warning/Threatening), Positive politeness (Paying  attention to listeners wants, Exaggerate, Include both S and H, Offer promises, Give an explanation, and Give gift to H), Negative Politeness (Be pessimistic, Give deference, Apologizing, Go on record), and Off Record (Give hints,  Overstate, Use metaphor, Use of rhetorical questions, an Be incomplete). When it comes to a gender perspective, there are differences in their use, which can be seen in the first debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, where the use of politeness is a type of Positive Politeness, while the debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden is mostly Bald on record.

Abstract

Women’s rights movement aims to achieve equality with men in many aspects, including education, politics, society, economy and culture. In this research, the researcher analyzes a book titled Educated written by an American girl, Tara Westover. The purpose of this research is to know how Tara Westover is treated by the family, society and culture through the women’s rights as it has been described in Educated. The research focuses on two problems: first, women’s rights experienced by the main character and the second, main character actions toward women's rights. The book carefully and accurately analyzed using the existentialist feminism theory as a response to research problem and see how women’s resistance toward inequality. The researcher describes a woman in Idaho who has not got her rights. There are some factors that cause inequality in Idaho, such as religion, society, culture and family. All those factors make the women's rights movement so limited. They don’t have the same rights as men, women always inferior and men always superior especially in family scope or in public domain. The character in this book is reflected in existentialist feminism. However, feminism is reflected in the character's survival, the struggle to move these lives into the male world (patriarchy), comfort themselves and do things that are comfortable for them.
