Abstract

This article describes political matter in a work of literature. The study applies structural and pragmatic approaches. Political analysis is undertaken on the theory of politics involving nation, authority, decision making, policy, and alocation or distribution. Result of the study demonstrates that nation in a work of literature could be a modern form of nation or a kingdom, which perform legislative, executive and judicial rights. Any abuse of these rights by the authority will lead to the misery of the society. On the contrary, good governance will result to the prosperity of the society. Nevertheless, commonly, policy determination and decision making are performed on the basis of political interest. The Indonesian government in the era of the New Order did not carry out fair and just distribution or alocation on the abstract and concrete values, therefore the Indonesians lived inappropriately. This triggered misery and suffering for the entire Indonesian society, specifically for the lower and poor society. Frequently, the authority and the elite politician perform authoritative, immoral, insatiable, despotic, and inhumane governance.

Abstract

This article discusses representation and hegemony in charity shows in some Indonesia private televisions by using representation and hegemony approach. As the programs exploiting poverty in Indonesia, charity shows visualize philanthropy interactively and naturally. However, by using myth-semiotics and discourse analysis, we will critically understand ideological motivation exists behind philanthropy. By these programs, the capitalist wants to spread his ideological values broadly to society, not by his capital motivation, but by his willingness to share money or facilities to the poor. These programs, then, become capitalist’s mode of representation to negotiate their power over society naturally.

Carnivalesque and Deconstruction Reading on

A Narrative of Women Resistance

Abstract

This article discusses women resistance as the main narrative in Suami-suami Takut Istri (The Husbands Who’re Afraid of Their Wives, hereafter SSTI), a situation comedy (hereafter sitcom/s) which gains vast popularity among the viewers of one of the Indonesian television programs. However, among others, SSTI is a distinct program, since it represents women resistance to their husbands in domestic life; onething which is rarely found in the Indonesian context where most women still experience many difficulties and violence, both psychological and physical. This sitcom in its gendered narratives always articulates some ‘super women’ that can control their husbands in domestic life. In SSTI, we will find contextualization of some critical thoughts about popular media and their genre as the site of struggle in the process of articulation and negotiation which put women culture as resistance toward patriarchal hegemony as explored by postfeminist thought. Using Bakthin’s carnivalisque concept, this writing shows theoretical underpinning a carnival text or practice as site of resistance, despite the fact that through Derridean and Foucauldian reading there is still stereotypical problem of positioning women as the negative subject or as the other from which the resisting women seems afraid of loosing their husbands.

Keywords: carnival text, postfeminist, women culture, resistance, deconstruction.

Dominasi dan Subordinasi Imajiner

Abstract

In the contemporary power relation theories, many scholars define domination or subordination in the level of praxis. Foucault explained the domination of certain institutions vis à vis the society from historical perspective in the 17^th to 19^th century. Bourdieu viewed the symbolic domination at the end of the 1960s after he analyzed the education system in France. However, many of these scholars did not emphasize the importance of the concept of imaginary domination. Therefore, this article attempts to show that prior to practicing domination in reality, initially, imaginary domination or subordination is formulated in the mind of persons. As such, this imaginary domination is used to define the identity of other individual, or group of persons. Even before knowing someone else’s character, one tends to conceptualize the quality of the person by using the difference of class, physical appearance, age, gender, etc. Balzac’s novel, Voyage de Paris à Java, is used as a case in point to explain and expound this concept.

Rather, it was found thousand years back in the ancient Egypt, Greek legends, Rome Empire histories, Indian fantastic myths, Indonesian legends, and modern literature.

In the Indonesian literature, assorted theme on sexual disorder include homosexuality, transexual, incest, and rape. These types of sexual disorder never stand alone, but engaged to and are result of the disharmonious social relation. The technics of revelation of these type of sexual disorder by an author are reflected in literature in two ways, explicitly and implied. Given that literature is one form of social facts as well as the reflection of social reality, sexual disorder explored in literature is also seen as the reflection of abnormal social reality.

Abstract

Local color literature is one of literary genres which is rarely studied. This article is intended to study H.A. Badar Sulaiman Usin’s (HABSU) poems containing local color element assembled in Rambahan, a collection of poems. HABSU was a poet born and raised up in the Center of Kalimantan Province. This study demonstrates that HABSU’s poems represent Dyak local color and reflect Dyak cultural identity. This representation of Dyak local color is expressed by the use of code mixing, that is the use of Bahasa Indonesia and Dyak language. In addition to that, Dyak local color is articulated by the description of setting which comprises setting of place, setting of nature, and setting of the social culture. Local color literature has a strategic role in the distribution of local identity and values of traditional culture. It even has huge contribution in reviving tradition.

The writing uses library research, qualitative data, documentary study, descriptive method and intrinsic-objective approach. The semantic analysis results in both automatized and foregrounded meanings. Then the automatized meaning produces lexical cohesion and in turn, it produces subject matter. Meanwhile, the foregrounded meaning produces the literary meaning and in turn, it creates theme. Finally, the analysis indicates that the subject matter is about milkmen, the literary meaning is about Australian milk, and the theme is about the nutritious drink.

Abstract

This article discusses the discourse on power deconstruction, both in relation with social phenomena and other phenomena reflected in literature. This discussion is based on the cultural perspective. Result of the discussion demonstrates that author as the producer of literary text attempts to reconcile some elements: language aesthetic, human inner conflict, moral, values, harmony, greatness, greed, and power. To some extent, an author of a text has a significant role in constructing the element of power. In this context, an author indirectly roles to form, to institutionalize, and to socialize cultural practices. Nevertheless, the practice of culture does not always ballance social order, which in return shape an expectation that reading skill will lead to develop the skill to intervene pressing cultural practice. On the other side, deconstruction is an effective strategy to criticize the implied idiology in the text. In literary communication, the concept of ideology is crucial since literary text enable to strengthten or to destroy value and norm in society. That is why postructuralists struggle to reveal social problem by taking the side of the unforgotten or the marginalized. In this way, the unforgotten and the marginalized do not have freedom to identify himself as seen in Saman (Ayu Utami) and Arok Dedes (Pramoedya Ananta Toer).
