Abstract

The poem "When I Died" is one of Jalaluddin Rumi's literary masterpieces. He is known as a famous Islamic mystical Sufi until this time. Jalaludin Rumi's poem "When I Died" provides clues to humans about real death. Death here is not something scary, but a way to eternal love. This depiction of death, resurrection and immortality is a symbol found in the poem "When I Died" by Jalaluddin Rumi. Various literary works about death are often associated with sadness, grief, loss and unstoppable tears. This makes death a frightening and sad event. However, Rumi actually describes death as a step towards eternal love. This writing will show the symbolic meaning of the poem "When I Died" by using the hermeneutical analysis method from Paul Ricoeur. This method will explain the symbolic meaning of this poem and put an explanation of the symbol's meaning in real life. The result of this analysis is the discovery of various symbols contained in the poem "When I Died", including symbols of death, resurrection, and immortality.

Abstract

Mobile-assisted Language Learning (MALL) has been globally popular. Yet, experimental studies investigating the results of different treatments between additional MALL and standard MALL implementations in Indonesian university context are still understudied. This research sought to investigate the extent to which additional MALL activities as a treatment to an EFL experimental group of university students could improve their English given the limited class time and large sized classes. The subjects of this study were two second semester classes of English Literature students. The experimental class, a low-performing group, was asked to watch a youtube video twice or thrice a week in addition to the standard online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic while the controlled class, a better performing group, was not given this treatment. The findings revealed that (1) experimental students significantly improved their pronunciation, intonation, vocabulary and fluency but not their formal assessment results; (2) though assigned additional MALL activities, the experimental group, due to limited financial ability for internet,  spent roughly as much time as the controlled group; ((3) bad internet connection and low economic affordability contributed significantly to the less satisfactory result of MALL; (4) due to the standard online learning during the pandemic, both experimental and controlled students experienced increased exposures, enthusiasm, motivation, range of independent activites, autonomy and English ability; (5) real time students’ collaboration is challenging. This study suggests that MALL somehow allows greater English improvement and autonomy development and therefore is recommended that universities and respective local governments especially in remote areas provide the necessary supports.

Abstract

Indonesia’s folklore has been categorized as parts of sacred legacy. As parts of legacy, they contain moral values which have been passed down through many generations. Therefore, since they have been told and given from one generation to the next generation, societies universally agree that the moral values must not be questioned. Sangkuriang, as an example of folklore, also contains sacred moral value which must be agreed widely and not be criticized. The moral value of the legend of Sangkuriang says that a son must not marry his mother. This moral value is agreed by most Indonesian readers. It is largely approved that Sangkuriang’s mother, named Dayang Sumbi, is struggling and must be supported by the readers. On the other hand, readers have been told to disagree with Sangkuriang. However, by paying close attention, readers can actually find some violence done by Dayang Sumbi and illogical values written within the story of Sangkuriang which ironically have been widely agreed and recognized as universal moral values which must be followed by the society of Indonesia. This paper reveals that Dayang Sumbi is not a role model by applying the Transitivity theory as the linguistic evidences to show her shameful sides. To question and criticize the moral values, the writer applies Derrida Deconstruction. Since this paper aims to describe and analyze the findings in a narrative form, the writer applies qualitative research method. Based on the findings, there were some shameful sides shown by Dayang Sumbi and illogical values within the story.

Abstract

This paper discusses political euphemistic expressions from the perspective of cognitive linguistics. It is human to say something naturally and socially acceptable, emotionally not irritating, logically intelligible, and communicatively inter-translatable. Euphemistic expression is a way with which language speakers’ experiences can be linguistically and cognitively manifested. As a soft word or expression which is used to denote to things about which people may find disappointing or embarrassing to talk, euphemistic expressions enable to say something impossible possible. Introspection as a deep understanding of any language speaker to his/her language system on any talks is used as the data analyzing method. Research data is taken from online mass media. The research data focuses on politically related euphemistic expressions. The accounts of Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT) are used to give insights into the cognitive mechanism of euphemistic expressions. Political euphemistic expressions are logically intelligible. The research findings demonstrate that there are two basic motivations of euphemizing political expressions. The two are function and characteristics. The internalization of language speaker to the primordial nature of something to euphemize is the key to understand the way to construct the euphemistic expressions.
