STYLISTIC IN JAVANESE URBAN LEGEND STORIES: A CASE STUDY IN RUBRIC ALAMING LELEMBUT IN PANJEBAR SEMANGAT MAGAZINE

Folklore as a part of literature has an important role in society. As the interpretation of culture in the society, folklore is called by the culture of idea. Urban legend as a tale of contemporary folklore is often designed to elicit an emotional response from the audience. It is about some horrific, ironic, or exasperating series of events that supposedly happened to a real person. Javanese urban legend has a close relationship with the life of Javanese people and it influences Javanese people‘s point of view and way of thinking. While, stylistic is the study of the usage of language in literary works, by considering the social background and communication value of the literary work. The aim of this study is to analyze the stylistic in Javanese urban legend stories. The data were taken from rubric Alaming Lelembut in Javanese magazine Panjebar Semangat. Alaming Lelembut is a rubric which contains Javanese urban legend stories. The data were four stories which were already published in 2011. The data were analyzed by using the stylistic theory. The result shows that by using Ngoko Alus in telling the stories, the message of the story could be delivered to the reader and it could reinforce the message of urban legend. As the representation of Javanese culture, the usage of Javanese original terminologies for urban legend characters brought their own message to the reader and those words delivered the message to the society

An extension of Tamari lattices

For any finite path $v$ on the square grid consisting of north and east unit steps, starting at (0,0), we construct a poset Tam$(v)$ that consists of all the paths weakly above $v$ with the same number of north and east steps as $v$. For particular choices of $v$, we recover the traditional Tamari lattice and the $m$-Tamari lattice. Let $\overleftarrow{v}$ be the path obtained from $v$ by reading the unit steps of $v$ in reverse order, replacing the east steps by north steps and vice versa. We show that the poset Tam$(v)$ is isomorphic to the dual of the poset Tam$(\overleftarrow{v})$. We do so by showing bijectively that the poset Tam$(v)$ is isomorphic to the poset based on rotation of full binary trees with the fixed canopy $v$, from which the duality follows easily. This also shows that Tam$(v)$ is a lattice for any path $v$. We also obtain as a corollary of this bijection that the usual Tamari lattice, based on Dyck paths of height $n$, is a partition of the (smaller) lattices Tam$(v)$, where the $v$ are all the paths on the square grid that consist of $n-1$ unit steps. We explain possible connections between the poset Tam$(v)$ and (the combinatorics of) the generalized diagonal coinvariant spaces of the symmetric group.Comment: 18 page
