Multilingualism in Indonesian Literature: A Literary Review from the Perspective of Anthropolinguistics

There is an interesting problem to raise, namely the use of unique language symptoms in Indonesian literary works. The uniqueness of language use in Indonesian literary works can be seen from two or more languages in Indonesian literary works. The use of two or more languages is called multilingualism in Indonesian literature. Multilingualism in Indonesian literary works is seen as "the overlapping use of language in Indonesian literature." Using more than one language can interfere with reading fluency for readers who do not come from the same culture. However, if we face literary works with multilingualism phenomena, we must respond and understand them. Duranti (1997: 21) explains that Anthropolinguistics emphasizes language as an expression of people's mindset. Anthropolinguistics views language as a set of cultural applications

Pendekatan Antropolinguistik Terhadap Kajian Tradisi Lisan

Dalam makalah ini dibahas tentang bagaimana kajian antropolinguistik mampu membedah suatu tradisi lisan dan menghasilkan suatu analisis yang apik dari hubungan keduanya. Dalam pembahasan ada tiga pendekatan utama dalam kajian antropolinguistik yaitu performansi (performance), indeksikalitas (indexicalty), partisipasi (participation),yang  terbukti efektif dalam mengkaji hubungan struktur teks, koteks dan konteks (budaya, ideologi, sosial, dan situasi) suatu tradisi lisan yang dilatarbelakangi unsur-unsur budaya dan aspek kehidupan manusia yang berbeda-beda. Dengan mengacu pada teori Duranti (1977: 14), disimpulan dalam akhir pembahasan bahwa meskipun pendekatan antropolinguistik terhadap kajian tradisi lisan ‘terkesan’ tumpang-tindih dengan pendekatan linguistik budaya (cultural linguistics) dan etnolinguistik (ethnolinguistics) (lihat Folley, 1997:16 ), namun dengan jabaran penekanan tertentu pada kajian antropolinguistik, yaitu penekanan antropolinguistik dalam menggali makna, fungsi, nilai, norma, dan kearifan lokal suatu tradisi lisan, konsep ketiganya dapat dibedakan. Lebih dari pada itu, pendekatan antropolinguistik mampu merumuskan model revitalisasi dan pelestarian suatu tradisi lisan. Dalam hal inilah  ciri pembeda kajian antropolinguistik dengan pendekatan yang lain terlihat kuat dan menonjol
