@article{icocas708, author = {Muhammad Mukafi and Wahyu Putra}, title = {Kudus in The Image Of Cultural Phenomena and Illustrated By The Novel Kabar Buruk Dari Langit}, journal = {Proceedings International Conference of Culture and Sustainable Development}, volume = {1}, number = {0}, year = {2023}, keywords = {}, abstract = {Literary works often take a portrait of an event that reflects cultural phenomena in a certain time and space. This portrait is born into an image of the world that may be different from the real, but at the same time offers a phenomenological understanding of an event that happened. This image reveals textual symbols that have a source of emission from the real visual landscape and can still be found as historical traces. These traces are also believed to be cultural productions that are expressed through language aesthetics. The novel Kabar Buruk dari Langit captures such an image by making Kudus City its central landscape. By looking at the real visual portrait of today, the novel reminds readers of a past event that has culturally shaped the soul of Kudus City. Through all of this, the comparison between the narrated image and the symbols in it with the cultural cross-section currently experienced by the community shows a relationship in the representation of truth that can continue to be contested. }, issn = {3031-5794}, url = {https://proceedings.undip.ac.id/index.php/icocas/article/view/708} }
