This article critically analyzes Golding's Lord of the Flies to investigate how human nature was allegorically depicted by constructing an almost parallel fictional world to his contemporary time. In this paper, I argued, Golding allegorically exhibited the basic human nature of his contemporary time by experimenting with the schoolboys on the Pacific Ocean which unveiled the brutal and uncivilized nature of schoolboys and such activities as depicted in the novel resembled the brutal and savagery nature of the men of his time. The methodology, I employed in this study was a close analysis of primary text to examine how Golding used allegory to uncover the basic nature of human beings and I analyzed secondary resources related to the study to support my arguments. The analysis identified that Golding depicted savagery and animalistic human nature through allegory which questioned the traditional understanding of human nature as civilized and moral and his experience of involving in the war, and working as a school teacher assisted him in reflecting such brutal and uncivilized events of his time by constructing an almost parallel story. He provided a wider space and various layers of secondary meanings of characters, setting, and events, of the story which resonated in many respects with the events of his contemporary time. In addition, this study unpacked the fact that savagery existed inside the heart of the human, and manifested in a lack of guardianship and civilizational forces in human beings. This paper will be useful in exploring the novel for a better understanding of human nature, and it will also provide direction for further study.

Model United Nations (MUN) is a formal activity for youth to have a simulation of the United Nations assembling. This activity requires formal and academic language proficiency, predominantly in English. MUN is quite typical for debate competitions. Nevertheless, since the terms of the pandemic, there have been several setting changes to MUN’s procedure. MUN has been chiefly held in a virtual environment. Furthermore, this research is established to explore students' perception of the new online setting of MUN for their speaking ability. This research is phenomenological descriptive qualitative where it explored participants' perspectives in online MUN events. The data was taken with purposive sampling to collect participants with several experiences in online MUN events. Moreover, interviews will be implemented as a data collection method. It reveals most students infer that MUN allows them to gain confidence and fluency development in speaking components. On the other hand, it also provides a positive impact on their academic performance.

The speed of technology development facilities students in learning English digitally. They could express and use English in informal digital environment through social media and learning English application or resources. Informal Digital Learning of English (IDLE) contributes to students language enhancement. This study is want to dig in about the use of digital learning to informal and independent learning of English. Therefore, this research aims to explore how IDLE activity can engage receptive skills in university students and to explore how IDLE receptive skill activity can develop university students’ receptive skills. This study found that each individul can experience an increase in English receptive skills by going through the stages of learning using social media and English learning applications. IDLE-based learning can be built through the initiative and willingness of each individual, because this learning is not tied to a specific schedule or material to be studied. Each individual can organize and determine how they learn according to their wishes.

A study of the word formation process, especially in mobile application names is interesting to study since there has not been sufficient research that studies this phenomenon. In this case, the researcher was interested in revealing the word formation process found in mobile application names in Google Play Store. This study was a content analysis that employed word formation process proposed by Yule (2010). Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the word formation process found in mobile application names in Google Play Store with several categories. The findings showed that the word formation process occurred in four processes, namely compounding, blending, derivation, and multiple processes. Here, the multiple processes dominate the other processes which occurred in four application names. The compounding processes occurred in two applications, followed by the blending processes with two occurrences, and the other two appeared in the derivation process. Nevertheless, the clipping, acronym, coinage, and borrowing processes were not found in this study. Hence, the results indicate that the word formation processes in mobile application names also employed capitalization stylistic to raise more appealing brands. Therefore, the researcher suggests that future researchers can fill in the gap on the word formation process in particular scopes such as in game and e-commerce application names.
研究构词法的过程,特别是在移动应用程序的名称是有趣的,因为没有足够的研究来研究这一现象。在这种情况下,研究人员感兴趣的是揭示在Google Play Store中发现的移动应用程序名称的构词过程。本研究采用Yule(2010)提出的构词法进行内容分析。因此,本研究旨在调查Google Play商店中几个类别的移动应用程序名称的构词法过程。结果表明,词的形成过程分为复合、混合、衍生和多重四个过程。在这里,多个进程支配着四个应用程序名称中出现的其他进程。复合过程发生在两个应用中,其次是两次出现的混合过程,另外两个出现在衍生过程中。然而,在本研究中没有发现剪接、缩略语、造词和借用过程。因此,研究结果表明,手机应用程序名称的构词过程也采用了大写风格来提升更具吸引力的品牌。因此,研究者建议未来的研究者可以在特定的范围内,如游戏和电子商务应用程序的名称中,填补构词过程的空白。

Time is a prevalent motif in Elizabethan love sonnets, presenting itself not only as natural force to be reckoned, but also as an oppositional element in humanity’s constant search for immortality. Through the analysis of both Edmund Spenser’s Amoretti LXXV and William Shakespeare’s Sonnet XVIII I intend to explore, compare and contrast the representations of Time in their verses as well as the poets’ promises of immortality through their own writings. Drawing from Horace’s Odes and Ovid’s Metamorphoses as referential works in the discussion of Time in poetry, I will highlight how the struggle to survive the natural passage of time and its corrosive effects while having art as medium may have inspired both Spenser and Shakespeare’s efforts into building their own metonymical pieces of art. Through this work I hope to delve further into the motif of Time as a force that opposes the logic of stability and immutability often proposed by an art that promises the immortalization of one’s love interest.

This study attempts to identify the intention and pragmalinguistic forms of anger expression in tweets using #IndonesiaTerserah on November 15th, 2020. A corpus of 30 tweets is analyzed within pragmatic analysis framework. In analyzing the data, the illocutionary acts and pragmalinguistics forms of the tweets are the focus. The interpretation entails the analysis of text, addressing, and the identification of connotative meanings. The data are collected using Twitter Archiver Programme (API). An underlying assumption for choosing the time frame is the hashtag reached the highest trending in Indonesia as response to two mass gathering incidents in Soekarno Hatta airport on 10 November 2020, and Petamburan on 14 November 2020. Based on the findings of illocutionary act, the intention of using #IndonesiaTerserah in the tweets mostly is to state the fact and elaborate their opinions regarding the issues. The irritated feeling dominates the intention of using #IndonesiaTerserah. However, they also express expectation to the stakeholders to handle the issues in a better way. Based on the findings on pragmalinguistics forms, anger is expressed in thinly veiled form of cynical humor in order to make their message more straightforward to the addressees.

Although the notion of gay space started out as a cultural geographic study that predominantly focused on Western countries where gay visibility was high, more scholars have begun to show keenness in tracing the existence of gay space in Asian regions in recent years. This article traces the formation of gay space in Jono Anwar’s 2003 movie Arisan!. Set in modern day Indonesia where homosexuality is still deeply frowned upon, the movie explores how the male protagonist - Sakti struggles to come to terms with his own homosexuality in a world governed by heteronormativity. This study argues that the gay space in Arisan! is not formed by merely portraying the gay characters in a positive light but rather, by toppling the heteronormative structures that shaped the core of sexual hegemony as portrayed in the movie. This study examines how the formidable heteronormative structures are destabilized by toxic masculinity, toxic femininity, and the problematizing of heterosexual world for the purpose of making room for the formation of gay space.
