ABSTRACT ‘Tanda Tanya (?)’ movie has become an Indonesian cinematic work with some controversies complement with it. The controversies lie on how the movie constructed their messages related to the description of Islamic image. The Islamic image which is depicted in this movie contains several sym- bols which created a demonization on the construction of Islam and Moslem. The narrative theory that has been employed focuses on greimas actantial analysis models which emphasizes on how the narrative creates a story and how the story becomes a narrative discourse. The semiotic analysis used on this research is in term of constructivist perspective which aims at constructing the phenomena as a whole answer. The result of the research is that demonization of Islam has been constructed through the narrative sequences of ‘Tanda Tanya’. The movie depicted Islam in an image of traditional, un- civilized, terrorism, destructive, and aggressive community. This created a meaning of Islam as a negative and demonic community, religion, and value. Keywords: demonization, Islam, narrative  ABSTRAK Film ‘Tanda Tanya (?)’ merupakan sebuah karya cinema Indonesia yang mengundang banyak kontroversi. Kontroversi terletak pada bagaimana film ini mengkonstruksikan pesan-pesannya terkait penggambaran citra Islam. Citra Islam yang digambarkan dalam film ini mengandung simbol-simbol yang menciptakan sebuah demonisasi pada kon- struksi Islam dan muslim. Dalam penelitian ini teori naratif digunakan sebagai alat un- tuk memberikan gambaran tentang fenomena demonisasi. Teori naratif yang digunakan berfokus pada model analisis aktansial greimas yang menitikberatkan bagaimana naratif menciptakan sebuah cerita dan bagaimana cerita menjadi sebuah wacana naratif. Analisis semiotik yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini berdasarkan penggunaan dalam paradigma konstruktivis yang bertujuan mengkonstruksi fenomena sebagai sebuah jawaban. Temuan penelitian ini ialah demonisasi umat Islam dikonstruksikan melalui sekuen/babakan nara- tif dalam film ‘Tanda Tanya’. Film ini menggambarkan Islam dalam sebuah citra masyara- kat yang tradisional, tidak beradab, teroris, merusak, dan agresif. Ini menciptakan suatu pemaknaan Islam sebagai masyarakat, agama, dan nilai yang demonik dan negatif. Kata kunci: demonisasi, Islam, naratif

Aristotle is frequently posited as the founder of modern narratology, and the Poetics is widely cited as narratology’s first, foundational work of narrative theory and criticism. This chapter examines Aristotle’s precepts on a range of key narratological features, ranging from actants and audiences, katharsis and character, ethics and episodes—and, above all, his identification of the primacy of plot or muthos as the organizing principle that configures the stuff of story into narrative discourse. It sees the Poetics as developing a broadly rhetorical model of narrative, concerned principally with the communication and cognition processes associated with storytelling. It also explores the extent to which Aristotle’s theory of narrative needs to be understood as responding to Plato’s Republic and considers the potential of Aristotle’s major exoteric works, On Poets and Homeric Problems, as aids to negotiating some of the vagaries of the Poetics.

  Understanding the textual structure of the narrative construct in novels is essential in order to explore the aesthetics of fiction writing, which is also a basic factor for reading and criticism in its interpretation and hermeneutic aspects. Accordingly, this study aims to uncover the underlying principles of the narrative structure in the novel ‘The Alleys of Mudaqq’ from the perspective of viewpoint, style, description, rhetoric and language as well as the functions served by the aforementioned discourse modules semantically, formally or pragmatically depending on the semiotic approach. One of the main motives behind this study is the importance of the semantic structure in semiological studies and is considered an important aspect of discourse analysis of narrative text. Even though it goes beyond its role as analyzing the intrinsic and extrinsic meanings of discourse to occasionally serve as description and sometimes as symbolism and at other times in the form of artistic imagery. One of the consequences of semiotics in fiction analysis is that it views fiction as a narrative structure, i. e. , a larger network of relations that underlie the superstructure of a text. Thus, the approach which the semiotic analysis of the narrative discourse suggests is based on linguistic samples that determine the surface and deep structure of the narrative path. Moreover, the narrative system in ‘The Alleys of Mudaqq’ is an objective correlative the framework of which is related to an invitation to the high values and ethics of the humans, i. e. , the value of humans is not measured by the skills or the appearance he/she possesses, rather a human being’s ambitions should be built upon the skills and faculties he/she has and what he/she can actually perform.

The narrative mode of world-representation and world-building is omnipresent and far exceeds the domain of literature. Since literature is not necessarily narrative and narrative not necessarily literary, the study of narrative in a literary context must confront narrative and literature in a dual way: How does the presence of narrative affect literature? And how does literariness affect narrative? The basic terminology needs to be clarified by comparing English with the vocabulary of other natural languages. No consensus has been reached, even in the West, on the nature of narrative discourse. The entire history of poetics shows that, before the middle of the 20th century, little attention was paid to the narrative components of literary texts qua narrative—that is, insofar as the same narrative elements could equally be found in non-aestheticized uses of verbal and non-verbal languages. Aristotelian poetics, based on the mimesis of human action, keeps its grip on narrative theory. The post-Aristotelian triad separated more sharply the lyric from the epic and dramatic genres, but modern narrative theories, mostly based on the study of folk tales and the novel, have still failed to unify the field of literary narrative, or have done it artificially, dissolving narrative discourse into the undifferentiated experience of human life in linear time. The Western “rise of the novel,” in Ian Watt’s sense, and its worldwide expansion, turned the question of fiction, not that of narrativity, into the main focus of narrative studies. Later, the emergence of formalism and semiotics and the “linguistic turn” of the social sciences pushed the narrative analysis of literary texts in the opposite direction, with all of its efforts bearing on minimal, supposedly deeper units and simple concatenations. The permanent, unresolved conflict between an analytical and constructivist view grounded in individual events and a holistic view concerned with story-worlds and storytelling leaves mostly unattended such fundamental questions as how narrative is used by literature and literature by narrative for their own ends. Literary narrativity must be thoroughly reconsidered. A critical, transdisciplinary theory should submit to both logical and empirical trial—on a large number of varied samples—and narrative analyses that would take into account the following concepts used to forge methodological tools: discrimination (between the functions of discourse genres and between pragmatic roles in literary communication); combination rules (whether linear or not); levels (as spatial placing, as interdependence and hierarchical authority); scale and spatiotemporal framing and backgrounding, especially the (dominant) time concepts in a particular cultural context. The preconditions for analysis begin by investigating the relation between aesthetic emotions and narrative in other cultural domains than the West and the English-speaking world. Literary narrativity and social values concur to link the rhetorical manipulation of narrative with its aestheticization. The pleasure and fear of cognition combine with strategies of delusion to either acquiesce to the effects of time and violence or resist them; routine and rupture are alternatively foregrounded, according to needs.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze the influence of the role, ethics, and independence of internal auditors in implementing good university governance (GUG) with leadership style as a moderation variable. Multiple linear regression and moderation regression analysis models are used to test the hypothesis. The primary data are obtained through questionnaires that are distributed to the respondents, namely the dean and head of study program at the UniversitasBinaDarma and UniversitasMuhammadiyahPalembang. The results of this study indicate that the instruments in each variable proved to be valid and reliable. Based on the results of hypothesis testing, it can be seen that simultaneously the variable of role, ethics, and independence of internal auditors have positively and significantly effect in implementing good university governance (GUG). These results provide justification or endorsement of the theoretical truths used as the theoretical references of Stewardship Theory and Attitude and Behavioral Theory. Based on the partial test, role of auditor does not significantly affect the variable of GUG, but ethics and independence variable are found to be significant in influencing GUG. The leadership style is negative and insignificant in moderating the role of internal auditors and GUC and also the independence of internal auditor and GUC. The leadership style is found to be positive and insignificant in moderating the relationship of internal auditors’ ethics and GUC.Keywords        Role, Ethics, Independence, Internal Auditor, Leadership Style, Good University Governance  ABSTRAK Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji dan menganalisis pengaruh peran, etika, dan independensi auditor internal dalam menerapkan good university governance (GUG) dengan gaya kepemimpinan sebagai variabel moderasi.

South Korea and Taiwan are former Japanese colonies that have undergone similar processes of state-building since WWII. But they have chosen different rhetorical frameworks in their maritime disputes with Japan. In South Korea, negotiating with Japan can be viewed as threatening the country’s independence and pride, whereas in the Taiwanese government, cooperation with Japan is considered mutually beneficial. Why have these two countries taken such divergent stances toward Japan? This article examines the territorial disputes between South Korea and Japan over Dokdo, and between Taiwan and Japan over the Senkaku Islands. It sets forth a rhetorical framework of comparison, and it proposes a constructivist perspective in understanding South Korea’s and Taiwan’s legitimation strategies toward Japan from the late 1990s to 2018. This comparative study suggests that the differences between their legitimation strategies can be traced to their different colonial experiences with Japan.

The purpose of this presentation is to show elements associated to the study and analysis of pedagogical practices used by mathematics teachers, taking into consideration different approaches and conceptions derived from theories related to the role of the math teacher. The project highlights the need to use different strategies to analyze the processes occurring in the activities and tasks organized and implemented by the teacher. One of the main tasks in teacher training is to promote the capacity to noticing on the pedagogical activity, where noticing is understood as an inherent process to improve the quality of classroom management. In addition, different analysis models should be compared using examples and experiential practices and the different theories and research projects developed in this field related to this type of analysis. Knowing what happens in the classroom is a task inherent to the math teacher. For sure, if the teacher does not understand or is even able to perceive what is happening in the class, improvement actions are very difficult to implement. Consequently, math teachers must develop the capability of analyzing their pedagogical activity and the related elements. It is not about isolating variables and looking for causal relationships, but rather about understanding the teacher’s activity as the center of the multiple situations occurring in the classroom, which may be known more in depth, if the attention is focused on the organization, ordering, and execution of the tasks planned by the teacher. It must also be understood that the competence of analyzing mentioned here is not an isolated activity without an effect. Such analysis must be approached from an active perspective where scenarios are generated to mitigate complex situations or to value an approach different than the one happening in the classroom. Being aware that there are many aspects to analyze (most likely almost everything that happens is analyzable), we must take a stand on which situations are highly related to what happens in our classroom and which could eventually happen. With such a wide spectrum, some questions that need to be addressed are: What is important in the math education activity and who defines what is important? What elements are of interest to math teachers? How does the analysis conducted relate to the different models of the teacher's knowledge? How does our previous experience influence the assessments we make? How do we distinguish elements of interest to analysis? What is the relationship between reflecting and analyzing? At what stages of the teacher’s activity is an analysis required? What is the ultimate purpose of analyzing teaching activities? What competencies or skills are related to the analysis? What types of analysis are appropriate (content, cognitive, media, among others)? How can we balance the actions derived from the analyses we conduct? From all these questions the most important one that can guide the study of this reflection would be: What should be assessed in pedagogical activities and what is the objective of analyzing such pedagogical activities in math education?
