Abstract

Liberal feminism is the branch of feminism that believes that men and women are equal. It holds that women can act on the same level as men. It has been a recurring issue in various literary works that features a main female character, especially in film. In addition, liberal feminism can be observed in TV series. A series that portrays a female character is The Crown. This research seeks to investigate what aspects of liberal feminism are represented by the character of Queen Elizabeth II in the first season of the series. This research employed qualitative design due to the descriptive nature of the research that explores a social phenomenon. The theory of liberal feminism by Rosemarie Tong (2018) was also utilized to help analyze and describe Queen Elizabeth II’s behavior which reflected the aspects of liberal feminism. The findings of this study revealed that Queen Elizabeth in this series displays action that falls under the three aspects of liberal feminism, equal education, liberty, and rights. This shows that liberal feminism can also manifests in the behavior of a prominent female historical figure.

Abstract

Researchers have analyzed the portrayal of characters with disabilities in children’s and adolescent literature. However, studies examining the portrayal of deaf character in children book is extremely limited, despite an increased inclusion of deaf characters in children’s literature over the past two decades (Golos Moses, 2011). The present study analyzes the portrayal of deaf character and the way meanings are constructed in children’s picture book entitled Dancing to the Beat (2021). The study employed a qualitative approach and was framed by theory of characterization (Reams, 2015). In addition, visual grammar (Kress and Leeuwen, 2006) and Cerrato’s (2012) meaning of colors are applied to analyze the visual text. The results indicate that the deaf character is portrayed through highlighting Deaf culture instead of medical impairment model. From fifteen pages analyzed, there are eleven pages which belong to Deaf culture and four pages to medical impairment. Thus, Deaf culture characteristics appeared more frequent than the medical impairment as it can be seen through her environment’s acceptance. The deaf character showed as a positive role model with self-confidence, optimism, enthusiasm and hard work through her behavior in facing her challenges. In addition, the book highlighted the importance of the role of adult and peer in deafness environment and inclusive education.

Abstract

This study analyzes the punctuation errors found in the three AUs titles belonging to one author on Twitter. Particularly, this study aims to determine what types of errors appear in the three AUs and what factors cause the errors. The data for this study were obtained from the author's Twitter account entitled Happy Birthday, Kai, Celebrity Crush, and Illustrious. Furthermore, the study used a qualitative case study design to identify the punctuation error found in AU on Twitter and the types of errors by using the theory of Burt, Dulay, Krashen (1982). Meanwhile, the factors of occurrence of errors were examined by using the theory of Brown (1994). The results revealed that the author made three types of errors: omission, addition, and misinformation. The most dominant type that appeared was omission 19 times. Then, these three types of errors arise due to 2 factors: the intralingual error factor and the context of learning factor. Nevertheless, these three AUs still have many readers and receive many likes. However, correct punctuation is considered necessary because it can affect the reader's understanding.

Abstract

The study examines the language phenomenon found in an American singer-songwriter’s album. Specifically, this study aims to analyze the interpersonal meaning used by Taylor Swift in Fearless (Taylor’s Version) Album. Regarding data source, three songs which represent a whole album, particularly Love Story, Hey Stephen, and White Horse were selected. Qualitative design was applied in this research to identify mood system and the use of modality in the selected song lyrics. In classifying the type of mood, a theory proposed by Strauss et al. (2018) was used. Meanwhile, the theory given by Halliday (2014) was employed to discover the modality in the song lyrics. It was also supported by some theories from Systemic Functional Language (SFL) scholars, such as Gerot and Wignell (1994) and Eggins (2004). The findings discover that the singer only uses three types of mood: declarative, interrogative, and imperative. Since declarative mood becomes the most dominant type, it can be concluded that the album mostly expresses the singer’s ideas. The singer also reveals her certainty by using different degrees of modality in statements that are found in declarative clauses. By determining the dominant mood and the degree of modality, the study result is expected to be useful for the listeners to increase their understanding of the meaning and context consisting of music albums.

Abstract

The study explores the teacher's domination in Whiplash film by utilizing power relation theory by Foucault (1995). Particularly, the study aims to examine the portrayal of domination in the teacher-student relationship. With regard to research design, this study employed a descriptive qualitative research design since the aim of the study is to explore a certain social phenomenon, which is the teacher’s domination in the film, entitled Whiplash. By using a close film's dialogue and character development analysis, segmentation of scenes was classified into parts of domination action in the movie. The findings of this study reveal that power relations are exercised through three stages of power domination: disciplinary, negotiation, and resistance. This finding shows us that power relations are all around us, from a minor scale of family, education, and politics. Overall, this study has shed light on the portrayal of teacher-student relationships in media and its potential impact on societal perceptions and expectations of these dynamics.
