Abstract

The number of Indonesian novels translated into various foreign languages, especially English, requires a deeper study so that illegibility and unacceptableness will not occur in conveying the true meaning in the source language. This study examines the disclosure of the main character in the novel Bumi Manusia by Pramoedya Ananta Toer which was translated into English This Earth of Mankind using Appraisal theory in Functional Systemic Linguistics (LSF) perspective which includes the culture of the source language in it. The results of the analysis show that there is a shift in appraisal or a shift in the type of appraisal in the depiction of the main character in the novel in the source language (Indonesian) with the depiction of the character in the target language (English) as seen in the change in the choice of expression (words or phrases) in the target language. This can be interpreted that in the world of translation, the choice of equivalent target language words will always change according to acceptance with the culture and norms that apply to the target language.

Abstract

An abstract is one of the important parts in a research paper. It must give detail information to the readers. This research aimed to analyze abstracts’ content by using Move model proposed by Hyland (2003). It consists of introduction, purpose, method, result or product, and conclusion.  This research used a qualitative method which specifically used content analysis design. Content analysis design was used because the researcher analyzed the content of abstracts taken from PROJECT Journal article which meant whether the writers presented the detail information as Move model or not. Evidently, from 15 articles analyzed, it was only one person who displayed detail information which was appropriate with Move model and the others were still not what the researcher expected except in informing the methods used. From the result of analysis, the understanding of writers about giving detail information in an abstract still lacks. It proves that the data finding presented in the result showed the weakness of abstracts which were not suitable yet with Move model.
