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.

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.

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).

The present paper sheds new light on the prominent role of man’s home whether real or fictional on the construction of his identity in James Joyce’s (1882-1941) A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916). One of the most pressing issues and cultural contradictions of modern world is the fate of individual identity in city life. A person is defined based on his cultural identity; and when the loss of that identity is imagined, one is confronted with the thought that he will lose his sense of self and cease to be what he is. The identity involves a repression that leads to a construction of stability and security that might not exist in reality. Peter J. Burke and Jane E. Stets declare that identity means ‘who you are’. Thus, to investigate one’s identity one has to find a way to the cultural context that the person is brought up in it. Michael Ryan (1946- ) asserts that culture is a set of unstated rules by which men live. It allows men to live together in communities by giving them shared signs and signals. Semiology, according to Roland Barthes (1915-1980), is the scientific way of deciphering the cultural signs and codes that pave the way to look into a distinct culture. Thus, it is impossible to know Joyce’s characters, in particular Stephen Dedalus, without enough knowledge of Dublin as Joyce’s home. Stephen metaphorically maps his home through which he can wander to shape and reshape his real self.
