Abstract

This study aims to show how power operates through knowledge and control, which plays out in the movie "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022)," for its precious source, vibranium. Employing the analytical framework by Foucault's theory of Power: Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison (1977). The analysis unveils a perspective towards ‘isolation vs global responsibility’ exploring deeply into the details of the movie. The visual effects and the cameraworks of the cinematography and the selected utterances were also conveyed along with the analysis of the movie. As a result: 1) The movie depicts Wakanda's view of vibranium as a global responsibility, aligning with Foucault's idea of power permeating the entire social body. 2) Wakanda's efforts to protect vibranium triggers the exercise of sovereign power, reflecting the centralized control over valuable resources. 3) The tension between ‘isolation’ and ‘global responsibility’, with Queen Ramonda resulting in refusal to trade vibranium due to its dangers and ethical concerns about sharing advanced technology for power abuse. The power dynamics in Wakanda help shape the identity and decision-making. The analysis of the issue of power dynamics of isolation, global responsibility in the movie leads to the insight and understanding about the ethics of sharing technology that provide rich material for a better good.

Abstract

This study aims at showing the biases of two contrast movies, ‘The Fighter Pilot’ on the Japanese side and ‘Saving Private Ryan’ on the American side in the context of New Historicism. Having the two movies analyzed, the New Historicism theory by Stephen Greenblatt (2011) was used to reveal the motives of both works. Two contextual aspects of the narratives were contrasted, ‘Idealized Image" vs. Realism’. Hence, the cinematography aspects of both movies were also analyzed to reveal the emotional impacts and the motives of the characters. As a result: 1) Emphasizing the themes of sacrifice, friendship, and loyalty, "The Fighter Pilot" presents an idealized image of Japanese fighter pilots during WWII, romanticizing their heroism, sacrifices, and positive qualities. 2) The portrayal of the American soldiers in the ‘Saving Private Ryan’ shows an idealized image of virtuous, patriotic, and brave individuals dedicated to duty, peacekeeping, and sacrifice for the greater good, using cinematic techniques to enhance heroism, while depicting the chaos and horrors of war, including the emotional toll on soldiers and moral dilemmas in the same era. 3) Both movies avoid depicting unpleasant scenes of WWII, contributing to a one-sided perspective that compromises the historical accuracy by selectively portraying narratives to fit a particular motive. Thus, historical movies can be a tool for shaping one’s perspective on historical events either to remember or to forget certain occurrences.

Abstract

This study aims at investigating the challenges of being a double minority and the impact of societal expectations on their sense of self in Gene Luen Yang's graphic novel, "American Born Chinese," exploring the themes of identity, racism, and discrimination prevalent within the narrative. Distinguishing novels from graphic novels, the study emphasizes the unique storytelling method of graphic novels, utilizing pictures with dialogue bubbles to convey complex and specific stories. The discussion centers on the novel's three interconnected stories featuring a monkey deity, Jin Wang, a Chinese boy facing bullying, and an American authentically Chinese individual named Jin Wang, addresses the issue of racism, particularly focusing on the superiority of white society and the stereotypes associated with the Chinese in American society, the Post-colonialism theory by Robert J. C. Young (2001) was used in the analysis. As a result: 1) Racism as the Central Theme: The racism is the central and overarching theme of the graphic novel. It explores how the narrative effectively portrays instances of racial discrimination and stereotypes, particularly focusing on the superiority of white supremacy and the negative perceptions associated with the Chinese in American society. 2) Impact on Identity: it shows the profound impact of racism on identity, emphasizing the challenges faced by the characters, especially Jin Wang, as a double minority; the struggles of being an American-born Chinese with a different belief system (Confucianism) and 3) It eventually shows the character’s identity reconstruction rather than a manifestation of identity crisis. The narrative encourages readers to reflect on the negative impact of racism, discrimination, and the importance of embracing one's true identity. Ultimately, the analysis serves as both an educational tool and a critique of societal issues, promoting empathy and understanding in the face of adversity.

Abstract

This article investigates the implications of race-swapping character representation in the 2023 live-action adaptation of Disney's "The Little Mermaid," focusing on the casting of Halle Bailey, a Black actress, as Ariel. Utilizing postcolonial criticism frameworks, particularly Robert J.C. Young's theories, this study explores the historical and cultural significance of this casting decision. The findings suggest that the movie's approach to race-swapping serves as a means to challenge and redefine traditional racial narratives within popular media. The research identifies three primary outcomes: 1) Reimagining racial roles is exemplified in the movie by the casting of a Black actress in a traditionally white role disrupts conventional racial representations, prompting viewers to reconsider the historical association of race with specific characters and roles. 2) The race-swapping encourages viewers a re-evaluation of historical narratives in the story, deepening the audience's understanding and allowing for a more inclusive perspective of the past of different racial groups. 3) Upon promoting racial inclusivity and diversity, the movie strives to prioritize the significance of acknowledging the historical experiences of the marginalized societies in an effort not to be forgotten or eliminated. The movie approach leads to dual perspectives and biases: promoting inclusivity while also at the same time reimagining historical issues related to race. Consequently, this study highlights the importance of critically engaging with media representations to foster a more inclusive and representative cultural landscape by examining its historical biases. The movie's innovative approach to character representation encourages the need for ongoing dialogue about the intersections of race, history, and societal roles in contemporary media​.

Abstract

This paper investigates the power relations present in the children's narrative "How Turtle Got His Shell, Why Tigers Can't Climb Trees" through the framework of Michel Foucault's concepts regarding power, discipline, and resistance. The research utilized a qualitative approach, encompassing meticulous textual analysis and content examination, to discern and evaluate occurrences of power-related issues portrayed within the tale. Additionally, the illustrative components pertinent to these critical themes were subjected to scrutiny. By categorizing elements of power and resistance in a binary framework, the study affords a nuanced comprehension of the interplay between these factors within the narrative. The findings reveal: 1) Both narratives exemplify the manner in which power is manifested through hierarchical systems and regulatory practices, while simultaneously highlighting the intrinsic resistance that emerges within these power structures. 2) The selective distribution of knowledge in "How Turtle Got His Shell, Why Tiger Can’t Climb Trees" exemplifies Foucault's assertion that knowledge is intertwined with power, whereby those in positions of authority utilize it to uphold control alongside resistance. 3) The narratives reflect the dynamics of power relations in multicultural contexts, where dominant and subordinate groups interact, often leading to both subtle and overt forms of resistance. The findings emphasize the importance of critical engagement with children's stories to understand power dynamics and their impact on young readers. This illustrated children’s storybook serves as a poignant example of how children's literature can reflect real-life power struggles and societal issues. This research highlights the need for literature that nurtures a child's development and fosters a healthy sense of responsibility and respect within their communities.

Abstract

This research investigates how archetypes within children's literature not only reinforce cultural traditions and values in collective unconsciousness of individuals, but also emphasize the role of family unity and generational continuity in maintaining cultural heritage in a modern, globalized context in the preservation of cultural identity within the children's book "A Lucky Chinese New Year." By analyzing the Hero, Child, and Caregiver archetypes as embodied by the characters, the primary Jungian theory used in the analysis is Carl Jung's Archetypal Theory (1959), particularly focusing on the collective unconscious and universal archetypes. Meanwhile, Confucianism theory by Tu Weiming (1985) was used as the secondary theory to discuss cultural context. The study reveals how these archetypes support the themes of cultural preservation, renewal, and family unity. As the results: 1) Lily's actions embody the Hero's journey, demonstrating how even small actions by young individuals can significantly contribute to maintaining cultural traditions; This reinforces the idea that cultural preservation is a collective effort that transcends age. 2) The Child archetype in Lily symbolizes new beginnings and the continuity of cultural practices across generations, emphasizing the role of the younger generation in sustaining and revitalizing traditions and reflecting a cyclical pattern of cultural renewal. 3) The Caregiver archetype, embodied by Lily's family, highlights the importance of family support in upholding and transmitting cultural heritage. Together, these archetypes illustrate the interconnectedness of individual and collective efforts in creating narratives with similar themes to ensure the cultural traditions are preserved and passed down to future generations; this demonstrates the powerful role of children's literature in cultural preservation.

Abstract

This research examines Ruth Siburt’s ‘Anca’s Journey’ through the lenses of Liberal Feminism and Cultural Hybridity, focusing on how the story addresses traditional gender roles and the complexities of migration. Using Betty Friedan’s Liberal Feminism (1963) to explore themes of female empowerment through education and Homi K. Bhabha’s Cultural Hybridity (1994) to analyze identity negotiation as a secondary theory, As the results: 1) Anca’s Journey subverts traditional gender roles by portraying Anca’s intellectual growth as a central form of empowerment. Her education allows her to transcend societal expectations typically placed on young girls, aligning with Friedan’s feminist ideals. 2) The story highlights the resilience and agency of its female characters, particularly Anca and her mother, as they navigate societal pressures in a patriarchal, migration-focused narrative. Anca’s refusal to accept labels like "lame" demonstrates her resistance to restrictive social judgments, while her mother’s protective role illustrates maternal agency. 3) Anca's intellectual growth is a key factor in her ability to navigate her cultural environment, as she balances the expectations of her Romanian heritage with her new life in America. This reflects both feminist and hybrid identity formation theories. These findings illustrate how Anca’s Journey not only challenges traditional gender expectations but also reflects the broader social realities of migration, using education as a means of empowerment and identity negotiation.

Abstract

This research analyzes "Haiti Is My Home" through the framework of Stuart Hall's Cultural Identity Theory (1990), investigating the emotional and psychological impacts of displacement on children, the influence of memory and nostalgia in identity formation, and the varied approaches to adaptation within a novel environment. The narrative centers on Marie, a young girl who is uprooted from Haiti to Boston following a catastrophic earthquake, as she endeavors to acclimate to her new surroundings while her cousin Johanne fully embraces their altered circumstances. The findings indicate: 1) The examination illustrates that displacement profoundly undermines Marie's sense of self. Her emotional and psychological distress is manifest in her struggle to reconcile her past in Haiti with her current reality in Boston, intensing in feelings of alienation and resistance to assimilation. Conversely, Johanne embodies the constructive potential of adaptation, exhibiting resilience and enthusiasm regarding their newfound situation. 2) Memory and nostalgia are crucial in the formation of Marie's identity, as her recollections of Haiti offer comfort, yet simultaneously worsen her alienation from Boston. Sensory stimuli, such as the aroma of familiar cuisine, tether Marie to her past, complicating her adjustment to her new environment. 3) The contrasting behaviors of Marie and Johanne underscore the varied ways in which individuals cope with displacement, illustrating that adaptation is shaped by both individual experiences and emotional connections to prior contexts. This suggests that cultural identity is constructed and shaped and continually redefined, especially in the context of displacement and migration. The narrative's exploration of the issue of cultural dislocation highlights that identity is not static but is continuously reshaped in response to emerging realities.

Abstract

This study examines the portrayal of gender roles of the characters and the social expectations in ‘Mulan,’ (2020) the live-action movie, using the feminist theory of gender performativity by Butler, J. (1990). The research focuses on how Mulan’s character challenges traditional gender roles in Chinese society, the significance of "chi" as a metaphor for inner strength and its gendered portrayal, and the societal consequences of defying gender expectations. By applying a qualitative approach, the study explores key aspects such as female stereotypes, empowerment, and cultural symbols within the movie, while connecting them to feminist theory. The research reveals that 1) Mulan’s character actively subverts the gender binary of masculinity versus femininity by assuming roles traditionally reserved for men, thereby challenging stereotypes about female weakness. 2) The metaphor of "chi" is analyzed as a representation of inner strength, with Mulan’s mastery of it breaking gendered associations of power with masculinity. 3) The movie highlights the societal risks women face when defying gender norms, as well as the rewards of embracing individuality and agency. The movie offers a nuanced depiction of gender roles, blending Confucian values with feminist ideals. Mulan’s journey not only represents female empowerment but also blurs the lines between traditional masculine and feminine traits, ultimately questioning the fixedness of gender identity. This study aims to contribute to feminist discussions in literary analysis through movies as media and offer insight into how globalized interpretations of cultural narratives can reflect evolving perspectives on gender equality.
