Novel Analisis Kekerasan Simbolik dalam Novel Kim Ji-yeong Lahir Tahun 1982

Abstract

In a society with such strong patriarchal power it is not uncommon to cause a variety of gender polemics. Starting from the distinction of rights between men and women. Different job opportunities between men and women. Until domestic affairs are left entirely to women. These actions ultimately lead women to face symbolic violence. Symbolic violence is the result or form of gender discrimination and the perpetuation of patriarchal culture. The problem of symbolic violence is raised in the mass media, one of which is the novel Kim Ji-yeong born in 1982 by Cho Nam-joo. The Novel depicts a series of symbolic violent polemics received by women as a child, mother, wife, and employee in the company. This study uses a qualitative research approach by analyzing the discourse of symbolic violence obtained through the texts in the novel. In line with Pierre Bourdieu's concept of power domination, the analysis focused on the aspect of language that represented symbolic violence. The results explain that symbolic violence occurs because of the dominance of power from the parties who have higher capital.
