Subjectivity of meaning can’t be separated from human, for example the case of hijab. This research used quantitative method with semiotic approach. It also used Roland Barthes' semiotics with his 3 buildings (denotative, connotative and myth debunking) of QS. Al-Ahzab: 59, and connotative activities that dissolve in social practices in society. The results of this research indicated that the existence of the use of the headscarf and the leaning of the meaning of the headscarf as a standardization of women's religiosity was a myth, and become an ideology when it justified the meaning and blames other meanings. The meaning of shalihah women is women who wears hijab, or the longer the veil, the more shalihah she is. It is contrary to the goal of Islam as the basis for da'wah that always puts forward goodness and avoids badness (jalbul mashalih-dar'ul mafasid); do not force and preach well (amar ma'ruf nahy munkar bil ma'ruf).

AbstractIn this article, the authors try to review the Paris-Match cover page (No. 326 from 1955) analyzed by Roland Barthes and introduces a new model of analyzing sign system from a new semiotic approach based on the new definition of the context. This research is based on three layers of the context and shows that understanding the cover page of a magazine or any other kind of text is not only absolute but also somehow relative due to the different background knowledge of the audience. This means that human sees the Context A, or what is designed, in the situation of Context B, or situational context, and interpret based on their Context C, or background knowledge of the audience.

AbstractTelevision cooking shows have grown in popularity within the last two decades. As a media text, they reflect the surrounding culture and social practices and elicit various emotional responses in people. As a multimodal text, television shows utilize multiple modes to create meaning. Based on the view of cooking shows as a multimodal texts, this paper draws on Kress and Van Leeuwen’s social semiotic approach and examines how multimodal elements (linguistic, visual, sound, spatial, gestural) convey the authority of the tv host. In doing so, five different tactics from Van Leeuwen’s legitimation theory – personal, expert, role model, tradition, and conformity – of authority are identified and revealed. This paper provides an analysis of cooking shows that has resulted in a better understanding of the ways in which authority is constructed multimodally, and subsequently contributes to developing applications of multimodal analytical approaches in linguistic, cultural, and communication studies.

There are a number of methods can be applied in giving critics on fine art, one of which is through the art- lover oriented approach. Basically this approach gives emphasis on the meaning of art work is fully determined by the appreciator or the lover himself/herself. This kind of approach has lately become popular particularly in order to understand the meaning of a contemporary art work. Joko Dwi Avianto’s bamboo statue “Harmony of Speed” which is used as the topic of this article is seen by the writer from his own viewpoint as an appreciator of art. The exploration of meaning for this art work makes use of Roland Barthes’ connotative semiotic approach. The connotative meaning of the statue is related to the adoption of modern civilization in traditional life. Facing the modern life, artist community cannot directly refuse or accept it instantly. They should accommodate both aspects (modern and tradition) proportionally. One compromise step is that whatsoever decision you take in art creation, one thing that you should be kept in mind is that you never neglect your own cultural identity.

The stagnation of da'wah among young people is mostly caused by the use of symbols that are not in line with or even contrary to the aspirations of young people. The da'wah offered by the Hijrah Youth Shift Movement is a da'wah that uses symbols of young people as a medium for their da'wah. This article tries to explain how the Hijrah Youth Shift Movement represents the value of young people who are slang and pious. Through Rolland Barthes' semiotic approach, the author tries to examine these symbols which are presented in the da'wah content uploaded to the Instagram @message_trend account. In denotation, posts from the Instagram @message_trend account display activities such as cleaning, archery, camping, tahajud prayer in green open spaces. In connotation, the Instagram account @pesan_trend tries to show a model of young Muslim people who love the environment, are physically and spiritually healthy. Mythically or ideologically, @pesan_trend, which was initiated by UHA and Shift Pemuda Hijrah, is showing the social class of middle-class Muslim youth, which so far has been identified with indie culture, which is active in green spaces. On the other hand, this also shows the ideology of Shift which is leaning towards the tarbiyah movement.

Abstract: The emergence of 'ruqyah aswaja' from Nahdliyin was originated from the anxiety of the present of ruqyah sunnah which tends to spread radicalism ideology. It is illustrated in the official website of Nahdatul Ulama on April 30, 2017. Ruqyah is essentially an alternative method in healing various illnesses, however, some groups of Muslims tried to utilize ruqyah for spreading radical ideology. This paper is attempted to reveal the radicalism in the ruqyah organized by QHI by the semiotic approach. It employed Roland Barthes semiotics theory to analyze the data. It focused on the value of radicalism in the ruqyah training video on Youtube uploaded by Nuruddin Al Indunissy's account which affiliated with QHI. There are two issues being discussed in this paper,  The first issue is how the markers on “Hati qurani” therapy videos (ruqyah live streaming). Secondly, it deals with how to understand radicalism embedded in “Hati Qurani” therapy videos (ruqyah live training). The findings showed that the markers are in the form of giving an explanation and practice of burning keris (Javanese traditional weapon), a sign in this case of burning the cultural heritage and insulting it is a form of radicalism. The idea of radicalism lies in the intolerance of audio and visual attitudes on Javanese culture. The prevention of the spread of radicalism ideas  as a 'root' of violence and it can be anticipated from the beginning would be the main implications of this paper.ملخص:الرقية هي طريقة بديلة في العلاج على مختلف الأمراض. بيد أنها مجموعات من المسلمين الذين يحاولون استخدام الرقية لنشر الأيديولوجيات المتطرفة. تحاول هذه الورقة للكشف عن التطرفات فيما وراء الرقية التي نظمتها (Quranic Healing Indonesia) QHI علي نظر السيميائي. النظرية المستخدمة هي تحليل السيميائية رولاند بارتيث. التركيز الذي سيتم تحليله هو قيمة التطرفات في فيديو “Pelatihan Ruqyah Live” المشاركة موقع التواصل الاجتماعي يوتيوب التي تم تحميلها من قبل نور الدين الإندونسي التابع لـQHIفيقتضي البحث علي القضيتين الآتيتين: أولا، ما هي الدال والمدلول في فيديو "Rehab Hati Qurani: Pelatihan Ruqyah Live"؟ "؛ثانياً، كيف نفهم التطرفات المضمونة في فيديو "Rehab Hati Qurani: Pelatihan Ruqyah Live"؟. وينتج البحث علي ما يلي: (1) الدال على شكل إعطاء شرح وممارسة لحرق الكريس(Keris)، والمدلول في حالة حرق التراث الثقافي وإهانته هو شكل من أشكال التطرف؛ (2) تكمن رسالة التطرفات في عدم تسامح المواقف السمعية والبصرية مع الثقافة التراثية. الرجاء من البحث هو الدفاع عن انتشار الأفكار المتطرفة التي تكون "أصل" العنف وانتشار الدعوة الإسلامية السمحة.Abstrak: Ruqyah sejatinya merupakan metode alternatif dalam menghadapi berbagai penyakit. Namun ada golongan umat Islam yang mencoba menggunakan ruqyah untuk menyebarkan ideologi radikal. Tulisan ini berupaya untuk mengungkap paham radikalisme yang ada di balik ruqyah yang diselenggarakan oleh QHI dengan pendekatan semiotika. Teori yang digunakan adalah analisis semiotika Roland Barthes. Fokus yang akan dianalisis adalah nilai radikalisme dalam video pelatihan ruqyah di media sosial Youtube yang diunggah oleh akun Nuruddin Al Indunissy yang berafiliasi dengan QHI. Ada dua persoalan yang akan dibahas. Pertama, bagaimana penanda dan petanda pada video rehab hati qurani (pelatihan ruqyah live). Kedua, bagaimana paham radikalisme tersemat dalam video rehab hati qurani (pelatihan ruqyah live). Kesimpulan, penanda berupa pemberian penjelasan dan praktek pembakaran keris, petanda dalam hal ini pembakaran terhadap warisan budaya serta penghinaan terhadapnya merupakan bentuk radikalisme. Pesan radikalisme terdapat pada sikap intoleran berupa audio maupun visual terhadap kebudayaan Jawa. Pencegahan dari penyebaran paham radikal yang bisa menjadi ‘akar’ kekerasan bisa diantisipasi sejak awal menjadi implikasi utama dari tulisan ini.

The advent of globalization has brought about innumerable changes in the Indian society. Advertisements reflect the changing society. In the said context, the authors have studied the print advertisements related to male grooming products in India over a twenty-five-year period by using the Multimodal Discourse Analysis and the framework of Roland Barthes semiotics study. The current study encompassed two prime purposes – the first being that of identifying and understanding the important codes of visual image in the male grooming sector; and the second being to discern the changes (if any) hitherto in the Indian culture. The findings from the present study reinforced the view that advertisements do mirror the changes in the society and hence the emergence of the Indian metrosexual men.
