Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis novel A Thousand Splendid Suns karya Khaled Hosseini dan The Breadwinner karya Deborah Ellis berkaitan dengan bagaimana masyarakat Afghanistan memperlakukan perempuan, respons karakter perempuan dalam novel terhadap perlakuan masyarakat Afghanistan, serta persamaan dan perbedaan dari kedua novel. Dalam menganalisis, teori yang digunakan adalah Liberal Feminisme oleh Mary Wollstonecraft dan konsep Girl Power. Hasil Analisis menunjukkan bahwa karakter perempuan dalam novel yang menjadi perwakilan dari perempuan di Afghanistan, banyak mengalami diskriminasi dan penindasan dalam lingkup pendidikan, pernikahan/keluarga, publik/masyarakat umum, dan dunia kerja, khususnya selama dominasi Taliban dengan budaya patriarki yang kuat. Respons yang ditampilkan oleh karakter perempuan dalam novel menunjukkan adanya konsep Girl Power yang dapat dilihat dari perjuangan dan keberanian mereka dalam menghadapi masyarakat yang keras. Kedua novel juga menunjukkan persamaan dan perbedaan. Persamaannya dapat dilihat dari masalah sosial dalam cerita meliputi area pendidikan, pernikahan/keluarga, masyarakat umum, dan dunia kerja; latar belakang sosial keluarga yang merujuk pada kelompok etnik seperti etnik Pashtun dan Tajik, dan perwujudan konsep girl power yang dilakukan oleh karakter perempuan dalam novel untuk berjuang melindungi diri dari kekejaman karakter laki-laki. Sedangkan untuk perbedaannya, ini dapat dilihat melalui bentuk perwakilan perempuan yang merepresentasikan gambaran sosok istri dan anak perempuan dan sumber penindasan yang dialami oleh perempuan dalam novel yang berasal dari keluarga dan masyarakat. ***** This research aims to analyze Khaled Hosseini’s A Thousand Splendid Suns and Deborah Ellis’ The Breadwinner regarding how Afghan society treats women, the responses of female characters in the novels toward the treatment of Afghan society, and the similarities and differences between both novels. In doing the analysis, this study uses the theory of Liberal Feminism by Mary Wollstonecraft and the concept of Girl Power. The result of the analysis indicates that the female characters in the novel as the representation of women in Afghanistan, often experience discrimination and oppression in the scope of education, marriage/family, society/public life, and work life, especially during the domination of the Taliban with a strong patriarchy. The responses that are shown by the female characters in the novels represent the concept of Girl Power that can be seen from their struggle and courage in facing the strict society. Both novels also show some similarities and differences. The similarities can be seen from the social issues of the story which includes in the area of education, marriage/family, society, and work life; the social background of the family which refers to the ethnic groups like of Pashtun and Tajik; and the embodiment of girl power by the characters in the novel who struggle to survive from the brutality of men characters. As for the differences, it can be seen through the representation of women which represents the images of wife and daughter/children and the root of women’s oppression which comes from the family and the society that is portrayed in the novels.
