Abstract

Digital literature is literature that involves actors, perceptions, and technology as the main components. One of the digital literature that is currently in trend is a digital short story. Digital short stories are packaged in various forms, one of which is a digital application. Digital applications that focus on presenting short stories every month are applications that are owned by Kompas with the name "Lakon Hidup". In life plays various themes are presented. This study raised the theme "Father" as a zone for data acquisition. This research focuses on the representation of the figure "Father" in the digital short story "Lakon Hidup" Edition of September 2018. This research uses Greimas' proprietary study as a knife to dissect the operational and functional structures in digital short stories contained in the digital application "Lakon Hidup". Through a system of selecting data based on the theme "Father", three short stories were found which raised Father as the material in the story. The representation of Father's figures will be presented in an effective scheme and functional structure in accordance with Greimas's theory. This study resulted that there were differences in representation of the figure of Ayah. The father figure in each short story with the theme "Father" presents a different mindset of a father. Each father figure occupies a certain position in an active structure. But behind these differences there are similarities, namely the three figures in the three short stories with the theme "Father" together have a motive in the role they play. This study concluded that the figure of the father in the three short stories played a varied role. The position of the role they play is very clear in the financial structure presented in the form of a scheme. These roles are all positive.
