Else Liliani, LITERA FBS UNY

Abstract


Abstract
This study aims to describe identities, roles, and gender relations in children’s novels.
The data sources were six children’s novels published by Dar! Mizan.The six novels were
purposively selected. The data were collected by repeatedly reading the novels, recorded,
and classified based on the problem formulation categories. They were analyzed using
the framework of feminist literary criticism, namely woman as a reader. The results of
the study are as follows. First, gender equality has not been manifested because there is
still gender identity stereotyping. Characters with two identities, feminine and masculine,
are described as weird characters. Second, there is inequality in the distribution of gender
roles. Female characters have roles in public and domestic sectors and male characters
play roles in the public sector only. Third, existing relations show varied but recognizable
patterns. The relations are manifested in different forms depending on contexts, sexes,
ages, social classes, cultures, and descendant factors.
