Abstract

Robert Lowell, the iconic American Poet, moves with his Confessional poetry, notably the poetic volume Life Studies (1959) from the “raw” to the “cooked”. Confessional poetry is similar to the art of confession. Moreover, the historical poetic pieces implied more than the mere gathering of fact and figures. For Lowell history manifested itself in the affairs of men and it is a persistent and violent force. Such a view is not entirely optimistic, springing directly from this view is Lowell's deep sense of loss, failure, alienation, helplessness and a feeling of entrapment in a world not of his making. In the light of the New Historicism approach, Lowell managed to perceive the literary text as a communal product which sought to reconnect itself to its cultural context. He did not think only of the past but took history forward into the present with all its discourse on culture, and its components, religious and political tradition of the place itself. Hence, in order to study the confessional poetry, historical aspects and the consequences of their psychoanalytic literary approach objectively play a significant role.

The design used was classroom action research. The researcher was the teacher of the class and was assisted by the observer to observe the implementation of the strategy. The research was conducted in one cycle for five meetings. The subjects of this research were thirty two students of VIII A class of SMP Laboratorium Universitas Negeri Malang, in the academic year of 2012/2013. The instruments of this research were observation checklist, speaking test for role play and questionnaire. In addition, the data were analyzed and reported descriptively. This research was considered successful if the average of the students’ speaking scores met the criteria of success at least 70 for the whole class. The procedures of the implementation of stick puppet role play cover five main steps, namely: modeling, drafting, creating, rehearsing, and performing. In modeling, the teacher modeled how to use the expressions of inviting, accepting or refusing invitation, complimenting, and congratulating someone through the use of videos and model of conversations. In drafting, the students made their own draft of conversations while in creating step, the students created the stick puppets based on the characters in the conversations. Furthermore, in rehearsing, the students practiced their performance of stick puppet role play while the teacher gave feedback for improvement. Finally, in performing, the students performed the stick puppet role play on the stage and recorded by the observer. The research finding showed that from thirty two students, twenty six students got fair, two students got good, four students got very good, and none got excellent. It means that thirty two students (100 %) could pass the criteria of success as the students’ scores were above 70. The students’ average score was 74. The highest score was 85 and the lowest was 70. Moreover, the implementation of the strategy also brought positive students’ attitude in the range of vocabulary, the ease of getting an idea, the speaking skill improvement, the students’ excitement, the students’ enthusiasm, the students’ confidence, and the effectiveness of the implementation of stick puppet role play. Therefore, suggestions are delivered to English teachers to use stick puppet role play in teaching speaking for not only other language functions such as agreeing and disagreeing but also to other genres such as narrative and descriptive. It is also offered to future researchers to conduct a study on the use of stick puppet role play to English receptive skills such as listening and reading as this study focused on speaking in which belongs to the productive skill.

Abstract

The claim of universality of Brown and Levinson's theory of politeness has encouraged the theory's debate to draw the concept of face in group society culture. This article analyzes the concept of face in several group societies claiming that Brown and Levinson missed covering. The analysis was described through library research using primary and secondary data. The primary data comes from the original book of Politeness Theory written by Brown and Levinson. The secondary data were the description and the example of the conversation, how the existence of linguistics set of a language, and the ritual of performing an interaction in the culture found in some articles supporting and debating Brown and Levinson's universality Politeness theory. This analysis concludes that Brown and Levinson's Theory covered the group society politeness and face concept by seeing the definition of power imposition on society members. While the theory of Brown and Levinson is flawed to explain the flip concept of face in a collective culture, computing the weightiness of FTAs formula has covered the role of culture and group situational interaction. It makes this concept can be applied to any cross-cultural boundary universally.
