Story Theory

Abstract This paper presents the findings from a study introducing nursing students to narrative production. The aim was to use Story Theory to inspire students to intentionally collaborate with older people and produce a mini-biography of those individuals. Narrative theory was utilised in four ways: designing an educational intervention; collecting and developing older peoples’ life stories; framing an understanding of the meaning of the stories collected; analysing the significance of the storytelling approach. The paper explains the study approach and findings and outlines the benefits as well as challenges that occurred during the process. Most particularly, the anthology produced has become a tangible reminder about a clinical practice that allowed students to meet frail aged residents and come to know them as vibrant human beings.

The Form of Text Communication in Eka Kurniawan’s Corat-coret di Toilet Short Story Collection. The purpose of this study is to find the method of text communication in the Corat-coret di Tolet short stories collection. The form of this study is a literary study with structural analysis methods as offered in the narrative theory of Gerard Gennette. The results of the study are the classification of the text communication method of short stories namely: zero and fixed internal focalization; subsequent and simultaneous narrating times; intradiegetic-heterodiegetic, extradiegetic-heterodiegetic, and intradiegetic-homodiegetic types of narrating level and person; the character and writer as a narrator. The findings of the classification of text communication methods indicate the existence of a gender bias that alienates women's position in the story.

Artikel berjudul Struktural (dan) Semantik: Teropong Strukturalisme dan Aplikasi Teori Nratif A.J. Greimas merupakan upaya untuk menguji kontribusi dan relevansi strukturalisme, baik sebagai teori, metode, maupun paradigma, dalam perkembangan kajian sastra dan budaya mutakhir. Adapun Struktural Semantik adalah buku yang ditulis A.J. Greimas, salah seorang strukturalis yang teorinya tentang naratif teks kerap digunakan. Penelitian ini disusun dengan metode deskripsi kritis yang dikonkretkan dengan aplikasi teori A.J. Greimas terhadap teks cerpen “Filosofi Kopi” untuk menunjukkan jangkauan serta limitasi teori yang didasarkan pada paradigma strukturalisme tersebut. Hasilnya, strukturalisme sebagai suatu teori dan metode berhasil mengidentifikasi makna secara rigid, namun tidak atau kurang mampu mengelaborasi makna secara lebih kompleks. Meskipun demikian, strukturalisme tetap perlu dilakukan sebagai salah satu tahap analisis yang darinya elaborasi dimungkinkan terjadi. Abstract: The article entitled Structural (and) Semantic: Perspective on Structuralism and the Application of A.J Greimas’ Narrative Theory examines the relevance of structuralism as well as its contribution either as a theory, method, or paradigm, in the development of contemporary literature and cultural studies. Structural Semantic is a book written by A.J. Greimas, a structuralist whose narrative theory is widely used. This research used critical descriptive method, concreted by Greimas' theory applied to a short story entitled “Filosofi Kopi”, in order to reveal its scope and limitation based on the paradigm of the structuralism. The result suggested that structuralism, both as theory and method, could identify meaning rigidly, yet structuralism could not elaborate meaning more complexly. However, structuralism is still necessary as a stage of analysis from which elaboration is possible. Key Words: structuralism, narrative, paradigm, actan

Based on the main structural and narrative elements and drawing on the predominant views in the short story theory, this paper deals with the analysis of endings in Joyce’s Dubliners, as well as with various modes of their constitution regarding the effect they produce. Since the ending is regarded as the crucial component of short fiction, and bearing in mind the exuberant formal, thematic, symbolic and poetic potential that Joyce’s concept of epiphany has in the structuring of ends, it can be said that Dubliners is a collection that set the standard in the genre. This article aims at delineating the differences between the closed and open ends, pointing to the complex ontological implications of the latter ones, particularly in the light of the final story’s ending, “The Dead”, which also marked a multiple crossing of borders in terms of the form, genre and general poetics of James Joyce

Story Theory

Literary appreciation to the Koran becomes a fundamental idea in this study. Literary appreciation is used, because the Koran is a glorious Arabic literary bible which is strongly believed in its perfection and beauty. The object of this paradigm is not the unwritten words of Allah, but that of Allah that have been recorded in Arabic media, written in musha and communicated by human being. The main goals of this study are analyzing qasas al-Qur’ān from the aspect of principal structuralism and narrative theory. Analyzing qasas al-Qur’ān from this view is in harmony with tartīb al-āyāt theory and unity story theory by surah of Khalafullāh, and Qusb narration of classification. This analysis proposes three classifications of qasas al-Qur’ān and they are different from, for example, Manna’ al-Qassān, Mussafā Sulaimān, Khalafullāh, yet they share something in common with classification of Qasb. These classifications are: the first is one narration in one surah, the second is the collection of short narrations in a sequence of the surah, and the third is the collection of short narration in non-sequence of surah. These classifications become in harmony with the Koranic order, which collects its verses in one surah, in stead of collecting themes from various surah.
