Hafizhah Fauziyyah — 2024-07-25

This study explores the feminist perspective on motherhood in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Prima Santika's Three Weddings and Jane Austen, concentrating on the influence of mother figures on their daughters' romantic and wedding options. The central issue is how different mother approaches reflect broader societal expectations and individual freedom. The research uses a qualitative analysis method, directed by feminist theory and the attachment theory of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth, alongside the comparative literature theory by Wellek and Warren. The findings show that Mrs. Bennet's obsession with securing beneficial marriages for her daughters mirrors early 19th-century English societal norms, where wedding was crucial for financial security and social status.

Chandrawati Adji Ningrum — 2024-07-25

This study aims to analyze Itsumi and Sayuri's individuation process in Akiyoshi Rikako’s The Dark Maidens. Identify which aspects of individuation are most prominent in each character through Carl Gustav Jung's theory of the collective unconscious. The theory explains that the individuation process in the collective unconscious is made up of four archetypes, namely, ego, persona, shadow, and anima or animus. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method to deeply analyze and detail the characters' psychological development. The writer uses a psychological approach that examines how the characters experience individuation, a journey of self-discovery to preserve their societal image. The result of this study shows that both Itsumi and Sayuri present a persona to society, masking their true selves and hiding their shadow, the darker aspects of their personalities, within the subconscious. Itsumi's betrayal leads her ego to be overtaken by her shadow, revealing a vengeful and rebellious nature that dismantles her facade. The shadow also consumes Sayuri's ego due to her treacherous tendencies and desire to eliminate Itsumi, causing her persona to collapse. The finding of this study is the shadow's dominance results in both characters exhibiting irrational and destructive behaviors. Additionally, the characters become aware of their animus. Finally, the study concludes that the novel illustrates how individuals can undergo a negative individuation process characterized by the shadow's dominance over the ego.

The The analysis of Jean Baptiste Grenouille's desire in Patrick Suskind's perfume: The Story of Murderer

yusuf bakhtiar — 2024-08-02

Analyzing Jean Baptiste Grenouille through a Lacanian lens offers a compelling exploration of desire, identity, and the unconscious in "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer." Jean Baptiste's character exemplifies Lacan's concept of desire as a fundamental aspect of human subjectivity, shaped by unconscious drives and symbolic representations. The aspect of Lacanian theory relevant to Jean Baptiste is the idea of the "mirror stage," where an individual forms their sense of identity through identification with external images. Jean Baptiste's obsession with capturing and possessing the perfect scent can be seen as a quest for self-recognition and identity formation. His desire to create the ultimate perfume reflects a longing for a perfected self, mirroring Lacan's notion of the ego ideal. Moreover, Lacan's concept of the "objet petit a," the elusive object-cause of desire, helps elucidate Jean Baptiste's relentless pursuit of scent. The perfume, particularly that of young virginal girls, serves as the object of his desire, representing an unattainable ideal that he seeks to possess. This desire is not merely driven by physical attraction but also by a deeper longing for wholeness and completion, as suggested by Lacan. The researcher try to find The reflection of Desire in the novel and show what the effect of desire it self using Jacques Lacan theory of desire The analysis shows that Desire is not only about what the subject wants, but many aspects influence the formation of a desire using Lacan's theoretical method. The representation of desire in Grenouille extends beyond conscious control, deeply rooted in his psychological condition

Exploring Character Dichotomy in Anna Todd's After Good Versus Bad

Mutiara Stefani Putri Weking — 2024-08-28

This research explores the dichotomy of characters in Anna Todd’s After through the lens of binary opposition as proposed by Lois Tyson and the deconstruction approach by Jacques Derrida. The study focuses on the clear demarcation between good and bad characters, epitomized by Tessa Young and Hardin Scott, respectively. Using Tyson’s framework, the binary oppositions within the narrative are identified and analyzed, revealing how these oppositions structure the reader’s understanding of the characters. Derrida’s deconstruction theory is then applied to challenge and destabilize these fixed oppositions, offering a nuanced interpretation of the characters’ complexities. The findings indicate that while Tessa Young is predominantly portrayed as the embodiment of goodness, and Hardin Scott as the epitome of badness, a deeper analysis reveals underlying complexities and contradictions in their characterizations. This study contributes to a richer understanding of character development and thematic depth in contemporary literature. However, through the application of Derrida's deconstruction, the research concludes that these binary oppositions are not absolute. The complex interplay between Tessa and Hardin challenges the rigidity of their characterizations, demonstrating that the boundaries between “good” and “bad” are fluid and subject to reinterpretation.

Keywords: after, binary opposition, deconstruction, dichotomy, good and bad.
