Abstract

This research reveals double-voiced discourse in dialogues of Susan Glaspell’s Trifles. This research is categorized as a qualilative study. The data was taken from Glaspell’s Trifles text and indentified by applying Bakhtin’s double-voiced discourse (1981) and Baxter’s double-voiced discource functions (2014). It also applied Kate Millet’s Sexual Politics (2000) and Putnam Tong’s Feminist Thought (2009) to interpret the ideologies found in the text. There are thirteen double-voiced discourses found in Trifles. They represent two opposite ideologies; patriarchy and feminism delivered by the male and female characters. The discourses show personal power, debate ideas, and building solidarity. The male character uses the discourse to display personal power. Meanwhile, the female characters use the discourses to debate ideas and build their solidarity as women.

Abstract

Novel Dans le Jardin de l'Ogre (2014) karya Leïla Slimani mengandung aspek-aspek yang menjelaskan konstruksi seksualitas perempuan dengan penggambaran yang keluar dari pandangan mainstream yang normatif. Penggambaran perempuan sebagai mothers di satu sisi dan monster di sisi lain menjadi aspek yang ditinjau dalam penelitian ini dengan menggunakan lensa konsep women as mothers dan monsters karya Rossi Braidotti. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis isi cerita (content analysis). Metode tersebut digunakan untuk dapat meninjau lebih jauh narasi yang terdapat di dalam novel sesuai dengan aspek-aspek yang ada pada teori. Data yang terdiri dari narasi dan dialog antar tokoh dikumpulkan dan dikategorikan sesuai dengan polarisasi perempuan sebagai mothers dan monsters. Teknik yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah teknik simak catat. Hasil penelitian mengenai konstruksi seksualitas ini menunjukkan penginternalisasian nilai yang mendukung terjadinya konstruksi seksualitas perempuan di dalam novel Dans le Jardin de l'Ogre. Penginternalisasian nilai-nilai tersebut menyebabkan seorang perempuan harus menerima konsekuensi ketika ia menunjukkan seksualitasnya yang secara umum diposisikan keluar dari norma. Leïla Slimani's novel Dans le Jardin de l'Ogre (2014) examines the elements that influence the development and construction of female sexuality. Borrowing from the theories of Rossi Braidotti, aspects of motherhood and monstrosity are explored through this research. Content analysis is used as the research method, as it enables the convenient review of applicable and relevant data, i.e. the polarization between mothers and monsters. This study employs the notes technique as its research technique. It finds that, in Dans le Jardin de l'Ogre, women are depicted as internalizing values that support the dominant constructs of their sexuality. As a result, women face severe consequences if they exhibit sexuality that is considered as outside the norms.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the construction of the news about the immoral video case that happened to Indonesia’s celebrity (GA) in various online news media through Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis approach. Data sources are taken from various online news media, namely detik.com, kompas.com, liputan6.com, and tribunnews.com in the range of publications from November 2020 to January 2021 with the research subject in the form of news headlines related to GA’s immoral video case. With three dimensions of discourse from Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis, the data analysis was carried out by the three stages: the descriptive analysis stage, the interpretation analysis stage, and the explanation analysis stage. The results found that through the microstructural dimension, the eight news headlines used language tools by 1) choosing vocabulary that was focused on the various phrase of video X, and 2) grammatical units which were dominated by clauses, 3) syntactic functions which were dominated by information as topicalization of discourse, and 4) a form of news that emphasizes the affirmation or clarification of GA’s immoral video case. Then, through the mesostructure dimension, the four online mass media have different characteristics and characters in their delivery of news, especially news about the GA’s immoral video case, but are still presented accurately and objectively so that the news content can be conveyed to readers. Finally, through the macrostructural dimension, with the reporting of immoral video cases, GA received a negative image in the eyes of the Indonesian people, because she was considered to be contrary to eastern culture. This negative image is formed because of the news using vulgar, tendentious, and transparent language to reflect press freedom that must be upheld, even though in composing news, sometimes using sarcastic language and making comparisons in it to attract readers' interest

Abstract

ABSTRACTThis research aims to describe the use of adverb literally by a native speaker. It is qualitative descriptive research. The main source of this research is the data from one of the online corpora, namely Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA). There are three steps used in this research, namely the data collection, the data analysis, and the display of the analysis of the results. Based on the data from COCA, this research tries to describe the frequency of the use of adverb literally in COCA and how the adverb is used in the sentence by knowing the particle that follows it. Theories used in this research are the theory of adverb by Pichler (2016) which is supported by the theory by Murphy (1993) and the types of an adverb by Frank (1972). The result shows that the frequency of use of the word literally in COCA amounted to 39.109 contained in the range of 1990 to 2019. The adverb is mostly used in the context of spoken language which is 8.339. The collocation and the concordance lines in COCA are used to find out the particle that follows the adverb literally. The collocation in this research is divided into three classes of words, namely verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. Based on the concordance lines of adverbs in COCA, we can know that the adverb does not have the same position in the sentence. The position of adverb literally can change based on the context of the sentence.
