Abstract

Abstract          This study is aimed to uncover ambivalence in Jhumpa Lahiri’s novel, entitled The Lowland. In this study, Lahiri portrays how ambivalence occurs to Indian immigrants. These Indian immigrants are described as individuals who have spent many years in America. They come to America to continue their study. It implies that they are educated people. However, they are not able to adapt American culture well. At the same time, they also dismiss some of their origin culture. As a result, Lahiri argues that these Indian immigrants face irresolution of identity. In addition, a concept of post-colonialism by Homi K. Bhabha is applied in this study. One of Bhabha’s ideas in his post-colonialism is called ambivalence. The result of this study discloses that there is a high possibility for immigrants to suffer for irresolution of identity as the effect of different and conflicting cultures they have to face. Keywords: ambivalence, irresolution of identity, immigrants, post-colonialism

Abstract

AbstrakMasalah dalam riset ini adalah bagaimana ambivalensi yang ada dalam perlawanan atau wacana tandingan dari masyarakat terjajah pada cerpen Anak Ini Mau Mengencingi Jakarta? karya Ahmad Tohari. Objek material dipilih berdasarkan purposive sampling. Analisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan teori poskolonialisme. Salah satu kemungkinan pilihan perhatian dalam teori poskolonial adalah respons perlawanan dari masyarakat terjajah terhadap penjajahan itu, tanpa menghilangkan perhatian pada kemungkinan adanya ambiguitas atau ambivalensi. Metode yang digunakan adalah analisis deskriptif. Bentuk data berupa kata, frasa, dan kalimat yang ada di dalam cerpen. Langkah riset meliputi tiga hal, yaitu: mengidentifikasi representasi penjajah dan terjajah pada cerpen, mengidentifikasi bentuk-bentuk perlawanan yang dilakukan, dan menjelaskan ambivalensi dalam perlawanan-perlawanan tersebut.Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa ada tiga upaya perlawanan dari representasi pihak terjajah. Pertama, mereka tak bersedia memakan makanan sisa yang dihasilkan kaum representasi penjajah. Kedua, mereka menolak menjadi bahan tontonan kaum penjajah. Ketiga, tokoh Ayah tidak mengizinkan anaknya kencing di dekat emak, tapi boleh di mana saja di Jakarta (tempat para penjajah).  Perlawanan pertama menjadi ambivalen karena pihak terjajah menolak memakan makanan sisa pemberian barat, tapi mereka memakan makanan yang diproduksi oleh kaum penjajah dengan perasaan senang. Perlawanan kedua menjadi ambigu sebab pihak terjajah menolak menjadi tontonan, namun saat menonton para penjajah, mereka justru meniru kelakuan penjajah tersebut. Ketiga, tokoh Emak bagaimanapun juga berada di Jakarta dan selalu di dekat anaknya. Artinya, selama mengotori tempat para penjajah itu, sang anak juga mengotori tempat mereka sendiri tinggal. Kata kunci: Poskolonial, Perlawanan, Ambivalensi.

Abstract

 Abstract Uḫruǧ minha ya Mal'Å«n, a novel written by á¹¢addām Ḥussain, is regarded as a work contains the resistance response or the critique toward colonization and domination of ideology, and certain cultural production. This research tries to reveal whether this novel is aimed to voice the struggles and the critiques toward the occupiers. This research applies the theory of political unconscious by Fredric Jameson. There are three interpretation horizons in this political unconscious. They are narrow political horizon, broader social horizon, and historical horizon. Based on the result of these horizons, it can be concluded that in the surface level, this novel manifests critique toward the foreigners, while in the deep level, there is latent critique toward Iraq. In short, this novel does not only have a stronger struggle toward politic existent mode (the foreigners), but also a weaker struggle toward politic existent mode (Iraqi).  Keywords: the political unconscious, horizon interpretation, Fredric Jameson, á¹¢addām Ḥussain

Abstract

AbstractThe 2003 Pulitzer Award’s winning novel Middlesex has been praised in the United States because it is considered to be successful in presenting new perspectives on gender through intersex character who rejects genital surgery. In addition to intersex, this novel also constructs the discourse of sexuality through incest and lesbian issue. This study is conducted to reveal how gender, sex, and sexuality are represented in the novel. Judith Butler’s concepts of gender, sex and sexuality are used in this study to understand how the author builds the discourse of incest, lesbian and intersex. In order to find out the author’s position regarding these issues, this study also aims to expose what factors have influenced the representation of gender, sex, and sexuality in the novel. The result of this study shows that this novel tends to strengthen the causality between gender, sex and sexuality by portraying lesbian and intersex as the other. Incest is depicted as something acceptable as long as it is successfully blurred the kinship and suggests consensual heterosexual relationship. While lesbian is represented as sexual deviant desire that is never accepted in the United States. Intersex which becomes the major issue of the novel is defined as an abnormality that is shameful and should be hidden. In order to be accepted in the United States, lesbian and intersex are required to transform into more coherent gender and sexuality to fulfill what Butler calls as compulsory heterosexuality. The representation of gender, sex, and sexuality in the novel are greatly influenced by the political, social, and cultural factors that developed in Greece, the United States, and Germany in the 20th up to the beginning of 21st century. Furthermore, the discourse of lesbianism and intersexuality that flourished in America when the novel was published also has an effect on the representation of lesbian and intersex in the novel. Keywords: Intersex, Lesbian, Incest, Middlesex.
