Abstract
Tokoh merupakan salah satu elemen intrinsik dalam karya sastra yang berperan penting dalam membangun sebuah narasi. Tokoh pada umunya memiliki karakteristiknya masing-masing dan hadir dalam cerita untuk menyampaikan pikiran, perasaan, dan pesan penulis dan mewakili fenomena yang terjadi di kenyataan. Penelitian ini berfokus pada karakterisasi dua tokoh protagonis pria dalam dua novel karangan Haruki Murakami yang berjudul South of The Border, West of The Sun dan Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage, dimana penokohan karakternya digambarkan dekat dengan penulis. Dalam menganalisis data, peneliti menggunakan pendekatan biografis, teori karakter, dan teori karakterisasi tokoh yang diusulkan oleh Abrams (1981). Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan menggunakan metode triangulasi data untuk menjawab rumusan masalah penelitian. Novel berjudul South of the Border, West of the Sun and Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage merupakan data primer penelitian, sementara biografi, artikel, wawancara, buku, dan jurnal tentang Haruki Murakami adalah data sekunder yang menunjang penelitian. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tokoh-tokoh protagonis pria dalam novel, Hajime dan Tsukuru Tazaki, adalah dua contoh protagonis khas Haruki Murakami yang memiliki kesamaan satu sama lain. Mereka digambarkan sebagai pria Jepang di usia paruh baya yang berasal dari kelas menengah dan yang sedang berupaya menemukan sesuatu yang mereka hilangkan dalam diri mereka sendiri. Karakterisasi kedua tokoh terkait erat dengan penulis sendiri dan menggambarkan kebiasaan, gaya hidup, dan pengalaman hidup Haruki Murakami sendiri sebagai penulis.
English Abstract
Character is one of the intrinsic elements in literature that plays a vital role in moving a narrative forward. A character is assigned with several traits and exists to convey the author’s thoughts, feelings, and messages and represent the real phenomenon taking place in reality. This research focuses on the characterization of male protagonists’ characters in Haruki Murakami’s novels entitled South of the Border, West of the Sun and Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage, which are portrayed closely to the author. In analyzing data, the researcher used a biographical approach, the theory of characters, and the theory of characterizations proposed by Abrams (1981). This research uses a qualitative approach and employs the data triangulation method to answer the research’s problem. The novels entitled South of the Border, West of the Sun and Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage are the primary data of the research, while biography, articles, interviews, books, and journals about Haruki Murakami are the secondary data of the research. The findings of this research show that the male protagonists in the novels, Hajime and Tsukuru Tazaki, are two examples of Haruki Murakami’s typical protagonists that ringing similarities with one another as they are portrayed as early middle-aged Japanese men, came from the working class and whose journey to find something they had lost in themselves. Both Hajime and Tsukuru’s characterizations are tied closely with the author himself regarding habits, lifestyle, life events, and ways of thinking.
