- Abstract
In this era, the problem of natural damage and environmental damage is a problem for every country. The natural and environmental damage that often occurs is reduced forest land or deforestation. There are various causes of the reduction of forest land or deforestation, such as forest fires, illegal logging, transfer of forest land fungi and so forth. The phenomenon of deforestation implies the existence of arbitrary human power over nature and the environment. Departing from this, the purpose of this research is to apply criticism in the theory of literary ecology in Joko Pinurbo’s poem entitled “Bercukur sebelum Tidur” and “Tukang Cukur” and comparing the results of both to look for the meaning contained therein. Literary ecology is a theory that studies the relationship between humans and the environment in a literary work. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The results obtained by researchers after conducting the analysis of the poetry text “Bercukur sebelum Tidur” and “Tukang Cukur” is closely related to the environment and nature. Joko Pinurbo uses the same diction in describing deforestation and power, only through different perspectives. In the poem “Bercukur sebelum Tidur”, deforestation is seen using the perspective of the environment and nature while the poem “Tukang Cukur” uses the perspective of the woodcutter.
