Unpacking cultural dimensions in Mangunwijaya’s Genduk Duku (2019)
Main Article Content
Abstract
Novels serve as vital repositories of profound values, offering readers valuable insights and life lessons. This research aims to illuminate the cultural dimensions encapsulated in the novel Genduk Duku by Y.B. Mangunwijaya. This research is conducted within the context of Indonesia. Utilizing a qualitative research approach, this study employs content analysis to explore and elucidate the cultural dimensions derived from Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions framework. The findings reveal the novel’s rich portrayal of various cultural dimensions, providing significant insights into the societal behaviors and structures of the depicted era. Specifically, the novel examines power distance, collectivism, gender roles, uncertainty avoidance, long-term orientation, and restraint, offering a comprehensive understanding of the societal norms and interpersonal relationships that shape the community’s cultural landscape. This analysis not only deepens our understanding of the novel’s thematic elements but also contributes to broader discussions about cultural values in literary works.
