Abstract

This study aimed to discuss the oppression experienced by the Cornucopians and how the main characters and any other characters countered the oppressors in The Ickabog. This study was categorized into literary criticism using an objective approach by applying Young's Five Faces of Oppression theory (1990) and supported by Scott's Concept of Resistance (2000). The data were taken from words, phrases, sentences, and paragraphs in the novel The Ickabog by J.K. Rowling. The data were identified and interpreted, and then the conclusion was drawn. There were two results from this study. First, the characters of The Ickabog, the Cornucopians, suffered from oppression. Most of them have been oppressed by their government. They are forced to hand over what they have to the government. Otherwise, they can be arrested or even killed. Second, the novel's main characters, Daisy Dovetail and Bert Beamish, are accompanied by some characters successfully performing the resistance against the oppressors. The form of their resistance is done openly or closely. In summary, Daisy and Bert, alongside the other Cornucopians, can finally liberate themselves from their oppressive rulers, and Cornucopia becomes a peaceful country once again. The researcher suggested that further researchers analyze The Ickabog through other approaches and theories, such as Marxism, psychoanalysis, or feminism.

Abstract

The study analize diversities shown in Europe and Asia L'oréal Paris beauty advertisements. This research aims to analyze and understand various aspects of diversity presented in L'Oréal Paris beauty advertisements in Europe and Asia. In this study, the L'oréal Groupe Youtube channel was chosen to represent the L'Oréal Paris beauty product advertisement in Europe and the L'Oréal Paris Singapore, L'Oréal Paris Malaysia and L'Oréal Paris India were chosen to represent the L'Oréal Paris beauty product advertisement in Asia. The study elaborated on comparative research with the semiotic theory put forward by Roland Barthes in analyzing L'Oréal Paris advertisement which was broadcast on the YouTube channels of both regions. This study considered elements such as ethnicity, gender, age, and the concept of beauty depicted in the advertisements. The present study highlights Both Asian and European L'Oréal Paris advertisements predominantly feature women, albeit with different focuses. In Asia, there is a stronger emphasis on women's empowerment, symbolizing progress and changing roles for women in society. This messaging aligns with cultural contexts in some Asian countries that may still uphold traditional gender ideologies. On the other hand, European advertisements emphasize diversity and inclusivity, celebrating a wide range of backgrounds, appearances, and personalities among models.

Abstract

This study is carried out with the aim of finding out how the modern heroic story that occurs in Alex Irvine's Captain America The First Avenger is still related to the theory of heroism which is based on old community stories in the form of myths, legends and folklore. This research uses Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey theory or monomyth to analyze how the narrative in the novel follows the plot laid out in the hero's journey theory. This study takes the perspective of Steve Rogers as the main character who experienced many events according to the parts and stages mentioned in Joseph Campbell's theory. The data source in this study is Alex Irvine's literary work entitled Captain America The First Avenger, which is an adaptation of a film that was made into a novel and published in New York in 2014 by the publisher Little Brown. The data collection technique is carried out using a reading and note-taking technique that allows researchers to scan data in sources which are then classified according to what is required from the theory used. Analysis of this data shows that the narrative of the novel Captain America The First Avenger by Alex Irine follows all the stages in hero’s journey theory by Joseph Campbell.

Abstract

The research explores the theme of anxiety in the novel To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han, focusing on the main character, Lara Jean. Anxiety has a significant impact on adolescents during the transition from childhood to adulthood. This study investigates Lara Jean's condition of experiencing anxiety and aims to answer questions about the types and causes of her anxiety experiences. This research uses a literary criticism approach by applying Sigmund Freud's anxiety theory to analyze the novel To All The Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han. It explores the types of anxiety and their causes experienced by the main character, Lara Jean. Data collection includes close reading, recording relevant information, and sorting data to answer research questions. The findings in this research are Lara Jean's experiences of reality anxiety, neurotic anxiety, and moral anxiety. Reality angst sets in when her secret box disappears, and her secret is discovered, leading to tension with her sister Margot and attempts to avoid Josh. Neurotic anxiety revolves around fear of punishment for impulsive actions, including concerns about Josh revealing love letters and potential bullying from Peter's ex, Genevieve. Moral anxiety is related to the violation of decency norms triggered by Lara Jean's controversial video and the conflict with family values. This study identified threat, conflict, and frustration as essential factors contributing to Lara Jean's anxiety, providing insight into the complex interactions between external pressures and internal conflict in her life.

Abstract

This study investigated the use of metadiscourse markers in essays discussing the reconversion of Hagia Sophia from a museum to a mosque. By analyzing various essays, the research aimed to identify the most commonly used metadiscourse markers to understand how they contribute to the clarity and strength of the arguments presented using the qualitative method and Hyland's metadiscourse markers (2005). The findings revealed that interactive markers, such as transitions and frame markers, were widely used and effectively helped organize discourse in the essays. Meanwhile, interactional markers, such as hedging and boosters, were frequently employed to engage readers and emphasize key points. Additionally, the study found that authors supporting the reconversion of Hagia Sophia used metadiscourse to reinforce historical and religious narratives, while opponents focused on cultural heritage and secularism. The analysis of this study showed that metadiscourse shaped public discourse on controversial issues. The study also highlighted the significant role of metadiscourse in enhancing academic writing and suggests further research into multilingual and digital discourse contexts. Such research could provide more comprehensive insights into effective communication strategies, especially in discussions of globally significant and controversial issues. The study concluded that metadiscourse is essential for strengthening arguments and clarifying the author's position in sensitive and complex public debates, making it highly relevant in modern communication.

Abstract

Racism is a social phenomenon that continues to occur from the past until now. Advanced technological developments allow the spread of racism to become wider, one of which is through online newspapers. This research purposed to reveal racism through the use of inclusion and exclusion strategies by BBC News online media. This research also aims to reveal whether there is bias in this newspaper. This research used a critical discourse analysis approach. The data was taken from four articles of BBC News Online regarding the issue of the black girl published from September 24th until 28th, 2023. The data collected was data in the form of words, phrases, and sentences. Based on the inclusion and exclusion strategies proposed by Leeuwen (2008), this research found the two strategies were used by BBC News to represent the social actor. In the exclusion strategy, the strategy found was backgrounding while suppression was not found in this research. Then, this research found activations, assimilations, impersonalizations, functionalization, categorization, identification, passivation, and nomination while the rest strategies were not found in this research. From all of these findings, the most used strategy was activation. BBC News typically used this strategy to emphasize the action of Gymnastics Ireland in dealing with the racist issue. Moreover, BBC News was not neutral in reporting the news as Gymnastics Ireland was portrayed more negatively than the black girl.
