1.1 Background of The Research

Literary is a wide world. It is not just a literary work but it have
many meanings. Literary work have many genres, like fiction and non
fiction, and it can divided to many part again. A literary give various
human and humanism problems, and also lives problems. Authors observe
the problem and write it to the fiction based on their point of view. They
write it based on their imagination from the experiences or many point of
views in live.
Fiction is a result from the author as the opinion in problems
toward the surroundings. Although fiction is an imagination, but it needs a
comprehension and reflection explicitly. The comprehension and
reflection do by full of realization and responsibility. The fiction include
of novel, short story, novella, and the others.
Literary work exist as the result of imagination and reflection

1.4 Theoretical Basis
1.4.1 Feminism Theory
Feminism or feminist theory is support of equality for women and
men. Feminism Theory is an outgrowth of the general movement to
empower women worldwide. "...the ways in which literature (and other
cultural productions) reinforce or undermine the economic, political,
social, and psychological oppression of women" (Tyson). It is simple that
feminism fight for the equality of women and argue that women should
share equally in society’s opportunities and scare resources. Feminist

3
critics generally agree that their goals are to expose patriarchal premises
and resulting prejudices, to promote discovery and re-evaluation of
literature by women, and to examine social, cultural, and psychosexual
contexts of literature and literary criticism (Guerin 197).
Feminisms theory is to demonstrate the importance of women, to
reveal that historically women have been subordinate to men, and to bring
about gender equity. There are some basic feminist ideas, the principle are
working to increase equality, feminist thought links ideas to action,
insisting we should push for change toward gender equality and not just
talk about it; Expanding human choice, feminists believe that both men
and women should have the freedom to develop their human interests and
talents, even if those interests and talents conflict with the status quo. For
example, if a woman wants to be a mechanic, she should have the right
and opportunity to do so; Eliminating gender stratification, feminists
oppose laws and cultural norms that limit income, educational and job
opportunities for women; Ending sexual violence and promoting sexual
freedom, feminists feel that women should have control over their
sexuality and reproduction. There are also three basic forms og feminist.
There are liberal feminist that it thought and believes that individuals
should be free to develop their own talents and pursue their own interests.
It do not see women's equality as requiring a reorganization of society, but
they do seek to expand the rights and opportunities of women. Second,
socialist feminist, it based on Karl Marx ideas. It believes that the
traditional family is based upon a capitalist system, where women stay
home and men work. And the third, Radical feminist, it believes that men
not only benefit from the exploitation of women but are also responsible
for it as well.
According to Maggie Humm and Rebecca Walker, the history of
feminism can be divided into three waves. The first feminist wave was in
the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the second was in the 1960s
and 1970s, and the third extends from the 1990s to the present. Feminist
theory emerged from these feminist movements. It is manifest in a variety

4
of disciplines such as feminist geography, feminist history and feminist
literary criticism. First-wave feminism refers to an extended period of
feminist activity during the nineteenth century and early twentieth century
in the United Kingdom and the United States. Originally it focused on the
promotion of equal contract and property rights for women and the
opposition to chattel marriage and ownership of married women (and their
children) by their husbands. Second-wave feminism refers to the period of
activity in the early 1960s and lasting through the late 1980s. The scholar
Imelda Whelehan suggests that the second wave was a continuation of the
earlier phase of feminism involving the suffragettes in the UK and USA.
And the Third-wave feminism began in the early 1990s, arising as a
response to perceived failures of the second wave and also as a response to
the backlash against initiatives and movements created by the second
wave. Third-wave feminism seeks to challenge or avoid what it deems the
second wave's essentialist definitions of femininity, which (according to
them) over-emphasize the experiences of upper middle-class white
women.

1.4.2 Comparative Theory

There are some definitions of the comparative theory by some
sources or expert. The study of the literatures of two or more groups
differing in cultural background and, usually, in language, concentrating
on their relationships to and influences upon each other. The study of the
interrelationship of the literatures of two or more national cultures usually
of differing languages and especially of the influences of one upon the
other; sometimes : informal study of literary works in translation
(Unabridged Dictionary) and the definition from other sources are:
1.) Literary comparative is an effort to compare two literary work. It is not
only focuse on literary work but also the aspects in the literary work its
self.
2.) Definition based on Indonesian experts:

a) Sapardi Joko Damono,“Sastra banding merupakan pendekatan
dalam ilmu sastra yang tidak menghasilkan teori tersendiri.
Dalam arti bahwa teori apapun dapat digunakan dalam
penelitian sastra banding.
b) Suripan Sadi Hutomo (1993; 5) pada dasarnya sastra
bandingan itu berdasarkan satra nasional suatu negara.
Hutomo (1993; 11-12) studi sastra bandingan melandaskan
diri pada 3 hal yaitu: (a) Afinitas, yaitu keterkaitan unsur-
unsur intrinsik (unsur dalaman) karya sastra, misalnya unsur
struktur, gaya, tema, mood (suasana yang terkandung dalam
karya sastra) dan lain-lain, yang dijadikan bahan penulisan
karya sastra. (b) Tradisi, yaitu unsur yang berkaitan dengan
kesejarahan penciptaan karya sastra. (c) Pengaruh.
c) Hosilos (2001; 28) Sastra bandingan mengkaji
perbandinganantara karya sastra pengarang satu dengan
pengarang lain yang hidup di dua negara yang berbeda.

 “Seperti itulah kiranya jika aku harus berucap…“
Tiba-tiba musik mati, berganti dengan petikan gitar. Ghozali
belum melihat seorang pun disana. Ia hanya mengedarkan
pandangannya yang tak tahu harus ke mana.
“Kala pesonamu begitu kuat, hingga menakhlukkan hatiku...
Dan hatiku pun bertanya, engkaukah takdirku?...
Maka kupastikan hatiku kan merapat...
Kaukah takdirku... Abdurrachman Ghozali?!!“ (Chapter 4;page 72)

but in this story a girl named Ningrum, a Kyai’s daughter in
Dono’s village ask her father to say ta’aruf with Ghozali moreover
she want to marry him.
“Mas Ghozali, sebenarnya saya minta Mas berkunjung ke sini
adalah karena ada yang ingin ta’aruf sama Mas.”
“Tanpa ingin memperpanjang lagi, inilah yang ingin saya
utarakan. Putri ketiga saya Ningrum, ingin ta’aruf sama Mas
Ghozali.” (Chapter 13; page 185)
 Khadija does not want to marry too fast, she is not ready so when
her father ask her to choice one of the man that propose her to be
her husband, Khadija just silent and do nothing.
Pelangi tidak mampu melanjutkan kata-katanya.
Pelangi sungguh tidak mampu berkata, Wajah putri
kesayangannya yang membatu, membuat iba umi terlahir.
Abah berdiri dan berlalu. Pembicaraan berakhir. Pelangi langsung
masuk ke kamarnya.Menangis. Ummi hanya memendanginya dari
celah pintu kamar yang ia buka sedikit.(Chapter 25;page 359-360)
 In this story the case is still same about how a girl want to propose
or says love with a man. Mutmainnah try to ask Ghozali to propose
Khadija.
“Sudahlah Mas. Sya tidak suka berputar-putar. Apakah Mas
sedikit pun merasa tidak ada sesuatu antara Mas dan Bu Nyai?
Karena sesungguhnya kedatangan saya kesini adalah sebagai

 delegasi sebuah ikhtiar, sebuah usaha akan takdir.” (Chapter
26;page 367)

“…Akan tetapi, dengan jujur dia mengaku kepada saya kalau

sesungguhnya perasaannya sudah sangat melekat dengan Mas
Ghozali. Namun ia tidak ingin seperti kebanyakan wanita yang
takhluk hanya oleh hati dan perasaan saja….”
“Dan tidak tahu kenapa, semua istikharahnya yang tidak satu pun
disertai mimpi, tidak mengubah sedikit pun perasaan dan
keyakinan akan suatu nama: Abdurrachman Ghozali….” (Chapter
28;page 391)
 Khadija’s mother prohibit Pak Kyai to meet Khadija, she feels that
she does not appreciate by him as a mother. She wants to
understand by her husband that she can do her responsibility as a
woman actually a mother.
“Udah Bah. Cukup! Kali ini Ummi sudah tidak bisa sepenuhnya
patuh pada Abah. Ummi perempuan, Pelangi perempuan. Jangan
samakan kami dengan laki-laki. Biar Ummi yang bicara pada

2.1 Analysis of Feminism Theory of “Diary of A Lost Boy”
2.1.1 Analysis “Diary of A Lost Boy” Novel by Harry Kondoleon
based on Feminism Theory
 Susan can not oppose Bill when she knows that Bill is a
philanderer. She just scream out and crying.
Susan,Crying, explained how discovering Bill’s infidelities all at
once made her lose confidence in reality. After all, if she could be
so wrong about her marriage, what else was she off on? Slowly
everyone was confessing her own bitter disapointments and
humiliating concession. (Page 13)
 Susan keep calm and detained her angry with Bill. She loves him
so much, she try to be patience although she disappointed.
That message was given directly, and I see Bill to the door with his
weekend bag. We kiss on the cheek. I know Susan is facedown,
crying. She loves Bill so much. I must sign them up for a seminar
on how men and women love differently. I saw the flyer at the
Opera Center. (Page 22)
 Actually Susan want to rebel and angry to Bill and Hector, but she
does not battle with mad. She explain carefully to Hector
“We were quite, but you probably heard Bill and me the other
night. Decadent, I know, to kiss lips you no longer trust. But in a
city on a fire it’s necessary to eat, sleep, and touch very fast….You
love Bill, don’t you?You see past his shortcomings.Why does life
have to be such a Filene’s basement when you want it to be House
or Dior?” (Page 39)
 In some history that feminism also in litrary called feminism
literature where the woman want to be equal with men to write
literary. In this story, Susan said she might write a novel.
Susan said she might write a novel. She asked me if I would mind if
she wrote about me.(Page 71)
 Susan keep calm confront her husband girlfriend although she
angry. She also invite her to dinner with they.

10
 “That’s right, you get it, Bill. She hangs up every time I answer it.
Invite her for dinner! We haven’t had any good laughs around here
in a while.” (Page 84)
I don’t think Susan fully comprehends that Bill will walk in any
minute now with this new girlfriend of his. She think his betrayal is
a general thing with no specific characters. (Page 86)
“Pardon me, Miss Shush, but I really do feel compelled to ask you
what you are doing here. I mean, I know you must take my husband
for a total jackass, but nou could you possibly believe you could
march into new home and insinuate your pushy vagina in my face?
Could you not know my syphilitically minded husband has been
with hundreds of similarly demoralized women? Ask him. He
makes regular confessions at wekly meetings for compulsives. I
foolishly believed such oral display might be a substitute for
genital obsession how wrong could I have been?” (Page 87)
