According to a proverbial saying of Mattew Arnold, literature is the reflection of society. Following this idea it is true that the best reflection of a culture and society is found in the literature of that very community. Writers reflect culture in their writings because they can’t live without being influenced by the environment in which they live. Environment has its influence upon writers and that is why a writer or poet directly or indirectly describes his environment and culture. As compare to poetry, culture is visibly seen in prose. Same is the case of the reflection of Brahui culture in its prose. We easily know about the main cultural tenets of Brahui people through their literature. Their life-style, customs, food, education, professions, religion etc. are found in the prose of Brahui Literature. Modern genres in Brahui Prose, like novel, short story, drama etc. are the main sources of Brahui Culture. This article attempts to analyse modern genres of prose like novel, drama, short story and so on in Brahui language to discover and point out main features of Brahui Culture. Key Words: Brahui, Culture, Balochistan, Literature, Prose

ملخص البحث: هذه المقالة تُعْنى بدراسة صورة البطولة في قصة "أحراج يعبد" بقلم روضة الهدهد، فمشاهدُ القصة مستوحاة من الواقع وبطلُها عزّ الدين القسَّام الذي قام بأدوار بطولية متعدّدة؛ أمّا مكانُ الحَبْكة ففلسطين وزمانُها بين عام 1920-1935م، والحَبْكةُ نفسها تتمثل في سلسلة من دراما المقاومة والتضحية وبذل الغالي والنفيس في سبيل تحرير الأرض والوطن والشعب من اليهود والصهاينة المغتصبين. وترمي هذه المقالة إلى وضْعِ عرضٍ تحليلي لقصة بطولية معاصرة واقعية بين أيدي القراء وخاصةً الأطفال منهم، والغرض من ذلك ربطُ القراءِ بواقعهم الذي يُعاينونه؛ وتربيةُ وغرسُ عنصر التضحية في نفوس أطفالنا منذ نعومة أظفارهم من جهةٍ، وتوعيةُ شبابنا في بذل المُهج والأموال في سبيل الحفاظ على الكرامة واسترداد الحقوق وخاصة ً الأراضي المحتلة في فلسطين من جهة أخرى. تُعنى المقالةُ أيضاً بالإطار النظري للقصة. توصلت الدراسة إلى أن هناك نقصاً في نماذج الأبطال الذين نتمثل بهم في مؤلفاتنا، وأن الشهيد عزّ الدين القسَّام قد نال شهادته، وأظهر بطولته في القتال ضدّ اليهود وإخوانه الذين كانوا أمثلة حيّة يحتذى بهم، كل الأبطال في هذه القصص العشرة يتصفون بالبطولة الجهادية، وهم الأبطال المجاهدون. الكلمات المفتاحية: البطولة- الشهيد – المجاهد – المثقّف -  القروية.   Abstract: This article investigates the images of heroic figures in Rawdah al-Hudhud’s short story, entitled The Forest of Yaʿbud.

Thus, the article presents the readers with an analytical presentation of a heroic-driven story taken from facts of our contemporary life insofar as to bring the readers closer to the reality they live. This article is also concerned with the theoretical framework of the story whereby the researcher sets to define some concepts contained in it. To fulfill this, the researchers apply the analytical approach whereby all heroic scenes in the story are analyzed. The study found that there is a shortage in the Champions models who represents them in books, and the Martyr Izzedine al-Qassam had obtained his testimony, showed heroism in the fight against the Jews with his brothers, whom were living examples to follow them, all the heroes in these ten stories are characterized tournament jihadist, they are heroes Mujahideen.   Key words: Heroic - Martyr - Mujahid - Dducator - Rural.   Abstrak: Makalah ini merupakan kupasan terhadap gambaran watak-watak keperwiraan di dalam cerpen nukilan Rawdah al-Hudhud berjudul ‘Aḥrāj Ya‘bud (Hutan ya‘ud). ‘Izuddīn al-Qassām protagonis cerita menonjolkan kepelbagaian watak yang meliputi seorang shahid, pejuang, cendiakiawan, negarawan, pejuang nasionalis dan juga seorang pendidik menyemaikan jiwa-jiwa murid dan pengikutnya dengan pengetahuan serta kecintaan terhadap pengorbanan.

Artikel berjudul Struktural (dan) Semantik: Teropong Strukturalisme dan Aplikasi Teori Nratif A.J. Greimas merupakan upaya untuk menguji kontribusi dan relevansi strukturalisme, baik sebagai teori, metode, maupun paradigma, dalam perkembangan kajian sastra dan budaya mutakhir. Adapun Struktural Semantik adalah buku yang ditulis A.J. Greimas, salah seorang strukturalis yang teorinya tentang naratif teks kerap digunakan. Penelitian ini disusun dengan metode deskripsi kritis yang dikonkretkan dengan aplikasi teori A.J. Greimas terhadap teks cerpen “Filosofi Kopi” untuk menunjukkan jangkauan serta limitasi teori yang didasarkan pada paradigma strukturalisme tersebut. Hasilnya, strukturalisme sebagai suatu teori dan metode berhasil mengidentifikasi makna secara rigid, namun tidak atau kurang mampu mengelaborasi makna secara lebih kompleks. Meskipun demikian, strukturalisme tetap perlu dilakukan sebagai salah satu tahap analisis yang darinya elaborasi dimungkinkan terjadi.

This paper deals with Ngugi wa Thiong'o's portrayal of the protagonist in his short story "Minutes of Glory". Wanjiru finds herself trapped in an urban setting and is a victim of her situation and low self-esteem. The story is a poignant and touching study of this young woman who is battling with an identity problem and is seeking acceptance in a post-independence setting where women are exploited by men of the New Africa elite. She is regarded as "a wounded bird in flight: a forced landing now and then but nevertheless wobbling from place to place ..." The story affirms female self-realization rather than perpetual self-alienation, and that validates the persistence in attaining her desired goal. KEY WORDS: Kenya, literature, psychology, short story
