Phonology
•Phonology
is the branch of linguistics which investigates the ways in which sounds are
used systematically in different languages to form words and utterances (Katamba, 1989). There are 3
key terms:
–Phone
– sound that is actually heard []
–Phoneme
– more theoretical (idea) of a sound //
–Allophone
– nondistinctive realization of the
same phoneme
•This organization is
explained in phonological rules
•Phoneme
is the smallest unit of sound in a language which can distinguish two words.
(ex. Pan ≠ ban, ban ≠ bin). Therefore /p/, /b/, /æ/, /i/ are phonemes. There
are 44 phonemes in English: 24 consonants, 20 vowels.
•
Phonetics is the study of the inventory of all speech sounds which humans are
capable of producing. Mengkajisemuaranahbunyi

•Phonetics
is the study of speech sounds.
–Articulatory phonetics – how
speech sounds are produced (studimengenaicaramenghasilkanbunyi)
–Acoustic phonetics – the transmission
and physical properties of speech sounds (menelaahciri-cirifisikbunyidenganmenggunakaninstrumen
lab)
–Auditory phonetics – perception of
speech sounds (berkaitandengancaramempersepsibunyi)
•Phonetic
transcriptions – one sound = one symbol.
Articulatory Phonetics
•It deals with the way
in which speech sounds are produced (position of lips & tongue, how far open the mouth,
whether or not the vocal cords are vibrating, etc)
–The Organs of speech
It can be found in three area of the body:
a.In the chest are the lungs
b.In the throat is the larynx or
voice box
c.In the head are the organ of
articulation in the upper part of the mouth are (uvula, soft palate,
hard palate, alveolar ridge, upper teeth, upper lip and in the lower
part of the mouth are the tongue, lower teeth, and lower lip. The tongue has
been divided into three parts: the back, the front, & the apex (tip) or
(the mid) and two cavity (oral or mouth & nasal or nose)
–Speech mechanism
Inflectional
You are expected to know and be able to:
1.Identify English verb
agreement
2.Describe person and
number agreement
3.Identify genitive
markers
4.Analyze noun markers
of plurality
●
An Inflectional is a particular bound morpheme
expressing an inflectional distinction or a grammatical marker, such as affix,
that is used as a signal of a grammatical property. The inflections cannot
change the word class of derived bases. The inflections can be categorized into
the following:
●
1. Verb agreement (concord)
a noun phrase
functioning as a subject usually agrees with its verb in a clause, consider the
following ex in English
Literature is a medium through which a
person can convey his or her ideas or protest against different norms of
society. Those works that deal with a normal issue are particularly purpose in mind. An author can communicate with the readers of a literary
work if they can understand what the author wants to send. The author expresses
his or her feeling, thought, ideas, or arguments about the
social issues by writing those issues in a form of literary work.
Literary work has two main elements, which
can be analyzed. They are intrinsic elements or objective approach and
extrinsic elements. Intrinsic element (objective element) are elements of
literary work that build up the structure of literary work it self. Plot,
character, setting, theme, point of view, style and atmosphere are the examples
of the intrinsic elements. Sukada (1987: 47) stated that intrinsic elements are
the whole elements which build up a literary work.
On the other hand, extrinsic elements are
elements which come out of literary work such as history, social culture,
religion, psychology, and philosophy.
We as the reader cannot understand the
detail of certain literary work without knowing the two elements. Both of the
two elements of literary work is very important to analyze
in order to appreciate the literary work.
Literature is human personal expression especially
thought, feeling, enthusiasm, and concept in a certain description. Which can
as a communication media (Sumarjo and Saini, 1991: 3).
Language is very artistic medium or
material of all literary. It is used to express subject matter. Literary works
are differently from the language is used everyday. Literary is one of the
element of culture is used to express human thought and idea. It expresses
phenomenon of human life and their environment.
There are many kinds of literary works
that is drama, poetry and novel. Poetry is literary work that has stipulations
about number of word, verse, rhyme and rhythm. Novel difference with poetry,
novel did not have stipulations. The word used in the novel is unlimited. It is up to the author. Plot in the novel can be followed by the story of language. Then drama is very
easy to be followed by readers or audiences because an author tells the events
completely. The reader can enjoy and can be anxious until the end of the story.
Perhaps the script of the text of drama is so boring in the readers. They only
read about it because the content of the script majority is the dialogue
between one player with others. So that’s why the writer select novel as the
subject matter of the research. it is special literary that make
the writer attracted to read and analyze. The content regularly depends on
reality, the story advice is very detail and clearly, and certainly it has many
educations that the writer gets from the novel.
In analyzing a literary work, we have to
be able to provide consideration to the elements in the literary work and to be
aware of the detail in it as a work of art. As form, aspect, content, and the society elaborate in it. A literary work
it built up from some governing element such as form and content. The form of
literary work can only be understood by someone whom read it. Both of them
fulfils each other so that the result of the analyzing of literary work will
constantly create an impression and realize concerning literary work.
In addition, to analyzing it researching
is also necessary to reach an artistic work required by the author. It is
started from studying; researching and investigating the literary work so that we can get more understanding and appreciation
to the literary work.

In order to avoid misunderstanding and interpreting the meaning of the term used in the
analysis, the writer considered worthwhile to elaborate and define the term
which are relevant to this analysis.
1.Analysis
Analysis is process in sequence of
research task before write down the report (Purnawan Junaidi, 1995: 2).
According to Longman Dictionary of contemporary English, Analysis is an
examination of something together with thought and judgment about it (Quick,
1989: 3).
In this research analysis means to analyze
the educational values in novel “Sang Pemimpi”.
2.Education
Education is the process of educating or
teaching. Educating is further defined as “to develop the
knowledge, skill, or character. Thus, from these definitions, we might assume
that the purpose of education is to develop knowledge, skill, or character.
Unfortunately, this definition offers little unless we further define words
such as develop knowledge and character.
3.Values
Values closely related to good and bad
thing. Something is good or bad depend much on the values consisted in it.
However the goodness is closely related to the thing and values related closer
to respond of something good (Dick Hartoko, 1985: 38).
According to Purwadarmita (1984: 47-50)
standard of goodness can be observed from many aspects and goodness depends on
values implied in it. Something is said to be good if it is useful and has
positive implication towards people practice in daily life.
4.Novel
Novel is used in its broad sense to
designate any extend fictional prose narrative. In practice, however its uses
are customarily restricted to narratives in which the representation of
character occurs either in a static condition or in the process of the
development as the result of event or action. (Holman & Harmon, 1986: 335).
Novel also means long story. Long in this
case means, it has complex plot, many character, complex themes, various
atmosphere and various setting. (Sumarjo & saini 1991:29).
5.SANG PEMIMPI is the title of the novel by ANDREA
HIRATA.
CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF THE RELATED
LITERATURE
2.1.Biography
of the Author
Andrea Hirata was born on 24 October. He
is a novelist of Indonesia who comes from Belitong Island Bangka Belitung. An
introduction to a movie and a tetra-logy novel by Andrea Hirata: SANG PEMIMPI. Secondly, Sang Pemimpi is a novel, telling us about Ikal and
his brother struggling to reach their dream after they graduate from SD.
Titles of those novels are:
Book 1: Laskar Pelangi (Rainbow's Army)
Book 2: Sang Pemimpi (The Dreamer)
Book 3: Edensor (Edensor)
Book 4: Maryamah Karpov (Maryamah Karpov) -not yet
published-
Even though, his study major is Economy, but he really delights science, physic, chemistry, biology, astronomy,
and certainly literature. Andrea really made identical himself as an academies
and backpacker. Andre is going to get his other dream to live in Key Gompa, the
tallest village of the world in Himalaya.
Andrea has an education of economy at Indonesia University. He got a scholarship from Europe to study Master of Science at University’ de Paris, Sorbonne,
French and Sheffield Halam University, United Kingdom. His thesis In Economic
telecommunication got award from both university and he graduated with
cumlaude. This thesis has to be changed into Indesian and it is the first book
of Economic theory telecommunication that is written in Indonesian. That book has been turn as
scientific reference. And now Andre Hirata lives in Bandung and work at PT.
Telkom Centre.
2.2.Novel
Literature is often said to be a school of
life in that the authors tend to comment on the conduct of society and individuals
in society. They either point out what they see as important issues in human
affairs or propose ideal alternative to the way thing actually are the custom
and more of particular social group or individuals their aspirations and values
explored and exposed (Taylor, 1981:12)
Novel is a prose narrative fiction.
Taylor, (1981 : 46) stated that a prose works of quite some length and
complexity which attempts to reflect and express something of the quality or
value of human experience or conduct.
A novel is almost the same as a short
story; they both are included in prose narrative fictions that have similarity
in the intrinsic element such as plot, character, theme, setting etc.
Novel is narrative text informing of prose
with a long shape that is including some figures and fiction event. According
to Sumardjo, novel is a story with the prose form in long form, this long form
means the story including the complex plot, many character and various setting
(1998:29).
2.3.Educational
Values
Living together in group not only can be
found in human being, but also be found in animal. But the difference is just
the human being has a rule, norms, and life values.
Values can be separated from education,
because value is closely related to the good or bad case. Things depend on
values implied in it.
Lunberg (1992: 182) says, something
contains values if only someone do something according to the values it self
understood, and have some belongings it. (Lunberg in Dljoeni, 1992: 182).
There are many interpretations about
value. There is a philosopher (Ahmad Tafsir 1990; 18) who says that the value
is something which can create attention or as subject of attention. Other
opinion said that value is something that is more attended. Values means the
ability that can give prosperity. In general, values means “A worth” or some
kinds of characteristic, which is owned by something. Then in connection with
this, value is said to be the beliefed of activity of any object, which causes
it to be of interest to an individual or group.
Ki Hajar Dewantara identifies education as
an effort to improve the development of good manner and intellect. In the
narrower sense “education” is restricted to the function of community which
consist in passing on its tradition, is background, and its outlook to the
member of the rising generation.
In addition, Ki Hajar Dewantara stated the
education defined as an effort to improve the development of advance in
perfecting the life as “Life in society” (Ki Hajar Dewantara, 1962: 14).
Commonly, the purposes of education can be
abbreviated to form an advance of the person individually to become a fully
functioning person.
Based on the opinion above we can conclude
the education values are something useful for human to the form of good action
and behaviour. Aspect of the educational values that the writer would like to
discuss in this thesis related to social and religious aspect.
2.4.Element
of the novel
1.Theme
Theme is an idea of a story. At
the time author writes a story, he does not only want to tell a story, but also
want to say something to his readers. It can be a social life problem, his way
of life, or his comment toward this life etc.
According to
Stanton (1965:88) and Kenny (1966:20) theme is meaning that contained in a story. Authors use dialogue of character, their
ways of thinking, feeling, events, and setting to clarify the theme. Theme is
idea of a story. At the time author writes a story, he does not only want to
tell a story, but also want to say something to his readers. Social life
problem, his way of life, or his comment toward life, so forth.
Theme is that controlling idea or
belief as to what is important and unimportant in life. It gives a basic
meaning to a literary work. Generally, theme is inferred from the other
elements in the short story and often evolves through conflict(s) experienced
by the main character.
Them is revealed through the values of
characters when confronting obstacles and resolving conflict in pursuit of
their goal. It can be considered the foundation and purpose of novel. Without
purpose, the story becomes trivial.
2.Plot
Plot is a series of events that is tied
based on the relation of its creation in chronological events
and they are related to another based on the cause – effect from the beginning
of the story until the end. The events in the story are not independent, but
they are related to one another. So, one event will influence
the others.
According to Forster, plot is events in the story that has pressure to causal relationship (1970:93). According to
Stanton (1965:14) the story containsthe sequence of the events but every events are connected by causal relationship, one event cause or caused to the other
events.
The term plot refers to the systematic chain of events which make up
the story. Each link in this chain helps to build suspense and to solve a
problem. The main character is presented with a situation which presents a
problem or conflict which he must resolve. The largest part of the story will
deal with the main character’s struggle to resolve this problem or conflict.
According to Milan (1987:419), there are six steps of plot, they are:
a.Exposition
Exposition
is the way on which the author introduces the main characters and orients the
reader to the setting, such as time and place.
An exposition is just an explanation of some
sort of material that may be difficult to explain. It is also described as the
act of exposing. Exposition of a novel is a statement or rhetorical discourse
intended to give information about or an explanation of difficult material. Setting,
characters, main conflicts are introduced to the reader; this is the beginning
of a novel or story and may be short or long, but is always flat (little action
or emotion).
b.Rising
Action
Rising action is the series of events that lead
to the climax of the story usually the conflicts or struggles of the
protagonist. The rising action’s purpose is usually to build suspense all the
way up the climactic.
The round characters are developed, the
conflicts are increased and acted out in many ways, motives are introduced,
things happen; generally, the major part of a novel or story.
Once the conflict is presented, the crisis occurs and the suspense
builds. Complications arise, decisions are made and actions are taken, all
developing the central conflict and opening it up to different resolutions.
c.Conflict
Conflict has become a broad term in
literary works and it now includes almost any problem the protagonist may have.
It can encompass a struggle between the protagonist and another creature,
obstacles society puts in the protagonist’s way, a battle against nature, and a
mystery unravelled, or internal and emotional issues being solved.
d.Crisis
/ climax
Climax is the high point of a story in which the major conflicts erupt
in some kind of final showdown (fight, argument, violent or physical action,
very tense emotional moment) at the end of the climax, the ‘winner’ will be
clear (there is not always a winner!).
The climax is
the moment of maximum intensity. It is a feature of oratory, when a sequence
apparently moving to a climax is unexpectedly, interrupted by a weaker element.
If the action was rising up until the
climax, then the climax is the highest point of the action, from which tensions
will fail. Emotions are at a peak and the action taken is the focus of the
story.
e.Falling
Action
After the climax, all events leading
to the resolution are the falling action. Characters sort out complications and
display their emotions following the climax, all of them guiding the reader to
the resolution.
The falling action in a work of literature is
the sequence of events that follow the climax and end in the resolution. This
is in contrast to the rising action which leads up to the plot’s climax.
The falling action is the part of story, usually found in tragedies and
short stories, after the climax and showing the effects of the catastrophe.
The falling action in a story is where some of
the problems previously introduced begin to be resolved. Including the central
problem.
f.Denouement
/ Resolution / Conclusion
Resolution is the part in the story where the
nail biting plot, mystery, or situation in the book is finally solved and the
climax of the story is brought to an ending.
Where everything ends; the reader may have some sense of “closure” or
maybe asked to think about what might come next; in fairy tales, the Happy
Ending; in some novels, you will read about the characters many years later.
Problems are finally solved and the
conflict resolved for good or bad. The importance of the denouement is to give
the reader a sense of completion and satisfaction. The resolution need not
necessarily be good in order to achieve the sense, although for young readers
the resolution is often an agreeable and a moral one.
The term plot refers to the systematic
chain of events which make up the short story. Each link in this chain helps to
build suspense and to solve a problem. The main character is presented with a
situation which presents a problem or conflict which he must resolve. The
largest part of the story will deal with the main character’s struggle to
resolve this problem or conflict.
3.Character
Character is a person in a story or a play
(Duffy and Pettit, 1953:24). Character development involves both physical
description and classification of the mental and spiritual qualities of the
person.
The general character in a story, whether he is
sympatric or an unsymphatic person, is related to the protagonist, they forced
arrayed against him, whether person or things, they are the antagonist
(Perrine, 1978:43).
According to Nurgiyantoro (2000: 165) states
that term “character” that refers to subject of the story. Generally characters
are human, character as subject of the story hold important roles in developing
the story. Moreover, characters that those are created by an author hold
important roles in constructing the reader subjectivity. The character
appearance created by the author influences the reader’s mind about ideal
characters. The good of bad characters created by an author are implanted in
the readers mind and stay longer. How strong the characters are represented by
an author.
According to Abrams (1981 : 20), characters are
people in dramatic or narrative works, who are interpreted by the readers as
being endows with moral and dispositive, qualities that are expressed in what they
say dialogue, and by what they do action.
According to Aminudin (1990: 79), characterization
is the way of the author to show the figure and to show character of the story.
The author needs to characterization which builds up the story plot and
development of the story in which the figure win live and life in the fiction.
According to Subhan (2003: 810, character and
characterization can be classified into two groups, they are:
a.The Major or Main Character
The major characters play an important role in the story or the novel.
The major characters can further be analyzed into three groups they are as
follows: (1) protagonist (2) antagonist (3) companion.
b.Minor Character
Minor character or we often called supporter of the drama, novel and
they do not have an important role.
4.Setting
According to Hudson (1960:158), setting is
a whole environment of the story, including the customs and tradition, habits,
and the character’s way of life.
Setting is place; time and social
condition that become place for figures and affected an
event (B. Nurgiyantoro, 2000:75) setting will influence the action and way of
thought of figures.
Setting or the time and place of the
action in a story have a definite impact on the character development and plot.
The setting is often found in the exposition of the plot and readily
establishes time and place. Frequently it plays an important role in the
conflict giving credence to the rising action as a climax or turning point is
approached.
The element of setting in a story quite readily lends itself to
writing activities that focus on figurative language and effective use of
adjectives to create vivid, exact sense images and impressions.

approached. The element of setting in a short story quite readily lends itself
to writing activities that focus on figurative language and effective use of
adjectives to create vivid, exact sense images and impression.
We can conclude that setting is dealing
with situation where and when events happen toward character. If the setting of
the story can be changed by any place without changing or influencing the
character and theme, the theme is not integral
5.Point Of Views
Point of view is a term which refers to
the relationship between story teller, the story and the reader (Stone, et al.,
1983:11).
Point of view is a term in the analysis
and criticism of fiction. Point of view is way and or opinion used by the author as medium to present figures, action, setting and some events that
make a story in fiction work to reader (Abrams 1981:142).
Point of view is a term in the analysis
and criticism of fiction. Point of view according to Habiburrahman and Anif
(2006:281) is a vision of the author who was realized in the view of character.
So the point of view a ganged with style of tells. The kinds of point of view:
a.The third point of view
’’she/he’’ is a narrator as someone who out of sight in the story that only
mention name or personal pronoun.
b.The first point of view ’’I’’
who involved in that story. He/she is I, the character that tell themselves,
telling the event, acts that can saw, felt, and also the other character and
reader.
c.The mixing of point of view is
narrator can be changed from technique to other technique to as story that
written. It can be a mixing between the first point of view and the third of
point of view.
6.Atmosphere
Atmosphere refers to the mood of the story that is reflected by setting or the
implication of its meaning in order to build the mood of the story. To
construct the mood of the story such as plot, a good characterization right
setting, etc. all elements that must integrate in atmosphere can be built
through protagonist. And it is closely related to them. It can not exactly
build the theme of story (Taringan, 1984:153).
Atmosphere is the tonality pervading a
literary work, which set up in the reading expectation as the course of events,
whether happy or (more commonly) disastrous (a glossary of literary terms by
M.H Abrahams).
CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
3.1.ResearchMethodology
Literary in this case the research is an effort of searching knowledge and defining it continuously, carefully toward literary cases. It means that the literary research is a science that has obvious object, method and
approach. Literary research as a scientific activity must be supported by
appropriate method.
Before going to discus the method of this research it is better to define the
meaning of the method it self.
Method is a means of procedure especially a regular and systematic way of completing
anything (The American Heritage Dictionary, Volume fourth: 826) additionally
according to Longman dictionary, of contemporary English method is way of doing
something (Quirk, 1987; 681). Moreover Hassan and Koentjaraningrat (1977:16)
deepened the method that is a way of work in understanding the object and the objective of
the science involved with. They also explained that a method is chosen by
consideration its suitability with the object studies, from those definitions,
we can conclude that method is a way of work before understanding an object of the research.
It should be notified that the object of this research is a kind of the expression of the idea, thinking and feeling and besides of the purpose of
this definition, we can conclude that method is way of work to understand theobject of the research. The writer tries to explain the educational values of Sang
Pemimpi writer by Andrea Hirata. Having known the definition and the scope of the educational values, the writer concludes that appropriate method applied in
analyzing data is qualitative.
The qualitative method has five
characteristics, namely:
a.Natural setting is data resources and
researcher of a key instrument
b.The qualitative method descriptively,means that the data is explained in it.
c.The form of word or picture is not statistic.
d.The qualitative is considered as more
important to process that result.
Data analysis tends to be inductively, it
is made not to prove the hypo proposal before but to describe object.
Meaning is special think for that method.
To make this research more specific and
more detail, it is important to view that object of research from certain
knowledge of view that is called approach. This research will use structural
approach limited it self on the research of the literary work it self which is something dependent, so the research is done internally.
3.2.Data
Sources
Data sources refer to certain
books. Novel and many others form
in which the data are taken.
The data source in this study is the novel “sang Pemimpi” by Andrea Hirata. The
analysis will be focused on the Educational values of the novel.
3.3.Method
of Collecting The Data.
The writing of this proposal is entirely
done though library research. The data are collected from libraries in some
places where the related books are available: to gain more detailed information
to support the content of this proposal.
In order to collect the significant data
or the writer decides to use library as a basic activity of this research
writing. The writing collects the data, which are relevant to this from
library.
As stated previously, the data needed in
this study are all expressions, phrases and statements in the novel. The data
that are collected from the source is especially the novel “Sang Pemimpi”.
The information may be taken from several books such as Indonesian Literature.
3.4.Method
of Analyzing The Data
As soon as the significant data are
collected the writer comes to analyze about the educational values of”Sang
Pemimpi” by Andrea Hirata.
Secondly, the writer read the novel to
find some quotation to the object of the study, educational
values, and then the writer tries to interpret and explain it. At last the writer put it in the proposal as the result of the research.
The data is then presented in a
descriptive method that is by describing the fact about the novel focusing on
those questioned values.
The description is then followed by
interpretation and analysis making use the concepts related to literature and
education values.
CHAPTER IV
FINDING AND DISCUSSION
4.1.Brief Synopsis of “Sang Pemimpi”, Indonesian version

karena orang tuanya tak sanggup membiayai. Mereka yang masih ingi bersekolah
harus bekerja. Demikian juga dengan ketiga pemimpi, begitu tamat SMP mereka
ingin tetap melanjutkan sekolah mereka. Karena di kampong mereka tidak ada SMA,
mereka harus merantau ke Magai, 30 kilometer jaraknya dari kampong mereka.
Untuk itu mereka tinggal bersama – sama dalam sebuah los kontrakan, sedangkan
untuk memenuhi kebutuhan hidup sehari – harinya mereka bekerja mulai dari penyelam
di padang golf, office boy di sebuah kantor pemerintah hingga akhirnya bekerja
sebagai kuli ngambat, yang bertugas menunggu perahu nelayan tambat dan memikul
tangkapan para nelayan itu ke pasar ikan. Menurut hirarki pekerjaan di Magai,
kuli ngambat adalah pekerjaan yang paling kasar yang hanya akan di geluti oleh
mereka yang tekad ingin sekolahnya sekeras tembaga atau mereka yang benar –
benar putus asa karena tidak memiliki pekerjaan lain. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa
ketiga pemimpi ini memiliki hati sekeras tembaga untuk bias bersekolah untuk
mewujudkan mimpi mereka. Uang dari hasil kerjanya, sebagian mereka tabung untuk
bekal mereka dalam mencapai mimpi – mimpi itu.
Walaupun mereka sekolah sambil bekerja,
itu tidak menghalangi mereka untuk selalu belajar. Buktinya saja mereka selalu
mendapat peringkat di sekolahnya. Dan hal itu membuat orang yang mereka sayangi
sangat bangga pada mereka.
Ayahnya Ikal misalnya, seorang ayah yang
tak banyak bicara namun begitu mencintai dirinya, hal ini terbukti ketika
ayahnya harus mengayuh sepeda sejauh 30km dan cuti kerja dua hari hanya untuk
mengambil rapor Ikal dan Arai. Ketika hari yang ditentukan tiba ayah Ikal
bahkan harus bangun pagi – pagi sekali untuk mempersiapkan dirinya,
dikenakannya satu – satunya pakaian safari empat saku kesayangannya yang telah
disetrika dengan dengan rapih, baginya hari itu adalah hari yang terpenting
bagi hidupnya. Kesungguhan hati sang aydah dalam mengambil rapor Ikal dan Arai
adalah wujud rasa bangganya pada mereka yang pastinya tidak berbuah sia – sia
karena mereka masing – masing menduduki rangking kedua dan kelima.
Sedangkan Jimbron, tidak secerdas temannya
Ikal dan Arai. Tapi dia sudah cukup puas mempersembahkan peringkat ke 78 untuk
orang tua angkatnya. Walaupun demikian, dia bukanlah orang yang patah semangat.
Dia selalu optimis dalam melakukan apapun. Termasuk rasa optimisnya ketika dia
terus berusaha untuk membuat Lasmi temannya yang setelah bertahun – tahun tidak
pernah bias tersenyum akhirnya bias tersenyum juga. Itu semua adalah berkat
usaha dan rasa optimis dari Jimbron.
Tapi rasa optimis Ikal tidak seawet rasa
optimis Jimbron. Hari demi hari rasa optimisme yang selalu ada dalam dirinya
yang selama ini akhirnya pudar sudah. Karena rasa ketidakpercayaan pada mimpi –
mimpi yang dia miliki akan terwujud. “Meskipunkau penuhi celengan sebesar kuda sungguhan, sahabatku Jimbron, tak akan
pernah uang – uang receh itu mampu membiayaimu sekolah ke perancis” demikian
kata hatinya. Dia berpikir bagaimana mungkin dengan keadaannya seperti sekarang
ini, seorang yang sangat miskin yang bahkan untuk sekolah di SMA pun dia harus
jatuh bangun dulu, apalagi pergi ke Perancis yang sangat jauh. Itu sangat
mustahil. Kian hari rasa pesimis itu terus menggerogotinya. Dia tidak sadar
bahwa perasaan itu akhirnya berakibat fatal sekali. Dia jadi malas belajar,
bahkan bias dibilang dia tidak mau melakukannya. Dan itu mengakibatkan
rangkingnya jauh merosot dari peringkat ke tiga menjadi peringkat ke 75. dan
itu sangat membuat muak pak mustar gurunya.,”ah, ayahmu, Ikal, diundang
pelantikan bupati pun baju safarinya tak beliau keluarkan. Hanya untukmu Ikal,
yang terbaik dari beliau hanya untukmu…” katanya denagan nada yang kecewa.
Menyadari apa yang telah ia lakukan
menyakitkan hati orangtuanya. Pada saat penerimaan rapor Ikal sangat yakin
kalau ayahnya tidak akan mau dating sejauh 30km hanya untuk dipermalukan oleh
anaknya. Tapi Ikal salah, ayahnya adalah orang yang berhati besar. Beliau tetap
dating dengan baju safari empat kantongnya dan tetap cuti dua hari, serta tidak
ada sedikitpun rasa kecewa yang beliau perlihatkan. Dan itu sangat membuat IKal
semakin merasa bersalah dengan apa yang telah di perbuatnya.
Aria geram sekali dengan kejadian ini, ia
tak habis mengerti pada Ikal. “Puaskah kau sekarang setelah melihat ayahmu
dipermalukan”. Kata Arai dengan kesalnya “Biar kau thau, kal, orang seperti
kita tak punya apa – apa kecuali semangat dan mimpi – mimpi”, “Tanpa mimpi,
orang seperti kita akan mati…” ucap Arai dengan bijak. “Mungkin setelah tamat
SMA kita hanya akan mendulang timah atau menjadi kuli, tapi disini Kal, di
sekolah ini, kita takkan pernah mendahului nasib kita!!”, lanjutnya. “Kita
lakukan yang terbaik disini!! Dan kita akan berkelana menjelajahi Eropa sampai
ke Afrika!! Kita akan sekolah ke Perancis!! Kita akan menginjakkan kaki di
altar suci almamater Sorbonne! Apapun yang terjadi!!” Arai berteriak dengan
suaranya yang lantang yang akhirnya membuat mata hati Ikal terbuka seketika.
Kemudian dia berlari mengejar ayahnya untuk minta maaf atas segala
kesalahannya. Dan saat itu Ikal kembali bersemangat untuk mengejar mimpinya.
Tibalah waktunya kelulusan. Dan itu
tandanya ketiga sahabat itu Ikal, Arai dan Jimbron pergi merantau untuk
menaoaki tahap dalam proses mengejar mimpinya. Tapi ternyata, Jimbron tidak
ikut bersama Arai dan Ikal. Dia hanya memberikan dua celengan yang selama ini
dia tabung dan simpan khusus untuk dua sahabatnya tercinta dalam menggapai
mimpi – mimpi mereka. Dia merasa teman - temannya lebih mempunyai peluang
karena mereka lebih pintar. Dia cukup senang dengan bias membantu walaupun
hanya dengan celengan yang isinya tidak seberapa itu. Dan itu membuat Arai dan
Ikal terhenyak, tidak menduga sedikitpun akan niat tulus Jimbron selama ini.
“Ambillah, biarlah hidupku berarti. Jika dapatku berikan lebih dari celengan
itu, akanku berikan untuk kalian. Merantaulah, jika kalian sampai ke Perancis,
menjelajahi Eropa sampai ke Afrika, itu artinya aku juga sampai kesana, pergi
bersama – sama dengan kalian”, ucap Jimbron dengan tulusnya. Dia merupakan
sahabat sejati yang mau berkorban untuk kebahagiaan temannya.
Akhirnya mereka berhasil pergi ke Jakarta.
Dengan menumpang kapal Bintang Laut Selatan yang sebagai imbalannya mereka
harus rela bekerja rodi untuk mengepel dek dan palka, membersihkan WC dan
memasak 4 kali sehari. Tapi itu semua dijalaninya dengan sabar. Sesampainya di
Jakarta mereka tidak bias langsung kuliah karena tidak mempunyai biaya. Jadi
mereka harus bekerja banting tulang juga untuk menghidupi diri mereka. Sampai
akhirnya Ikal mendapat pekerjaan di kantor pos, kemudian akhirnya dia bias
kuliah di UI. Namun Ikal dan Arai harus berpisah karena Arai memilih mencari
keberuntungannya di Kalimantan.
Dengan perjuangan mereka yang begitu
panjang. Kuliah dengan biaya sendiri tanpa menerima sepeserpun wesel dari
orangtuanya, mereka akhirnya berhasil mewujudkan mimpi – mimpinya meraih gelar
sarjana dengan predikat Cumlaude. Dan setelah wisuda mereka berhasil
mendapatkan beasiswa kuliah keluar negeri melanjutkan S2 di Paris, Universite
de Paris Sorbonne Prancis.
4.2.Brief Synopsis of “Sang Pemimpi”, English Version
In the surroundings of Belitong Island,
there were three children in a Melayu residence at PN Timah
Belitong area, they have dream to continue their study till the French, Cruise
over the Europe and an Afrika. Ikal, Arai dan Jimbron, they are dreamers. Even
though they have the impossible dream, but they didn’t care about it. They have
a strong spirit to create their dreams, live In isolated area, the gloomy side
of life, destination, it is not the truly challenge for
them to dreams. They didn’t want to surrender to the destiny and their
condition. They think that dream is the energy for the present life to step
forward into the idea future.
Ikal is a student of SMA Bukan Main in Belitong
Island. He is a boy who is really respectful to his parents. He is a hard worker and stands alone. Together with his both
close friends. Arai and Jimbron, he works in a harbour as a ngambat (a name of
profession in harbour) in the early morning and after that they go to school to
get their dreams.
Actually, Arai is Ikal’s family: his
parent was death when he was a child. Arai has not any sister and brother, so
after both of his parents were death, Arai took care by Ikal’s parent in his
village, so that Arai was not just a brother but also a best friend for Ikal.
Arai is the open minded and very genius. But Jimbron is a sensitive boy, he is
not smart as Arai and Ikal. He is stammer in speaking since his father death.
Jimbron has obsession of the horse, even though in his village there is nothing
a horse there that he can find.
Ikal, Arai and Jimbron have high
solidarity to each other, they tried to get their dreams. At the time PN.Timah
Belitong was threatening in collapse, resign from a position in a job, make
most of children could not continue their study because their parents wouldn’t
able to earn their living. Most of them who really want to study at school,
forced to work, and also the tree dreamers. When they graduated at junior high
school (SMP), they want to continue the study. Because in their village there
was nothing the school for Senior High School, they must go to Magai, 30 kilo
meters from their village. So that, they started to live together, they leased
a house, while working as diver in golf field, as the office boy in the
government institution, and finally become a porter of ngambat which have a
duty to wait the sailor and carry on fish by their shoulders to the market.
They do this job to fulfil their daily needs. Based on hierarchy of the Job in
Magai, a porter of tether is a rough job for those who wants to continue their
school or those who are severed because they have not another job. It was proof
that the three dreamers’ boys have the hard ambition to continue their study
for their idea.
Even they were going to study at school
while working; it is not a big challenge to study. Prove that they always in
the best ranking in their school. And it makes their beloved man really proud
of them.
Like Ikal’s father, he is a calm man but
he really loves Ikal. This is a proof when his father must go by bicycle until
30 kilo meters and he takes leave his job for two days to take Ikal and Arai’s
rapport. When that day comes, Ikal’s father must wake up early in the morning
to prepare him self and wear the tidy clothes, because that is the important
day for his life. His father sincerity to take Arai and Ikal’s rapport is forms
of his proud from them who are surely worthwhile, because both of them are
classified into the third and fifth ranking.
But Jimbron, he is not smart as Arai and
Ikal. But he has enough proud to present 78 ranking for his adapted parent.
Even he is not easy lost the spirit. He always optimistic in doing everything,
for example when he always try to make Lasmi who has many years never give her
smile to everyone, then finally he can give her smile. It is caused by Jimbron
trial and optimistic.
But the Ikal’s optimistic was not longer
than Jimbron. The day after day the optimistic in his soul would be fall down
lately, because he was less confidence for his dreams. “even you always fill
those many box, like the truly horse, Jimbron, but it never earn your school
fee in French”, said Ikal. He was though how he can run to the best school in
French like this. It’s impossible!!! At the time by time he becomes real
pessimists. He didn’t realize that feeling will be made a fatal to him. And
finally, Ikal become a lazy, and didn’t want to study anymore. And of course,
he has down ranking. From the third to 75th. . Because of his bad behaviour.
Mr. Mustar as Ikal’s teacher was very angry to him. Ah…..your father, when he
invited to a district’s inauguration, he didn’t wear his safari costumes. It’s
only for you Ikal. What is the best is only for you.
When Ikal realized what he did lately, it
was hurt his parent, when he accepted his rapport, Ikal was very sure that his
father didn’t want to come to school as far as 30 kilo meters that just make
him shy by his son. But Ikal was wrong; his father is a someone who always be
patient. He still came by wearing his safari custom with four pockets, and
leaves his job for two days, and there was no disappointment in his face. And
it make Ikal feel so gloomy and bi guilty about what he had done.
Arai was angry for this happened, he did not
understand why Ikal did that big fault.’’ Do you satisfy to look your father
was ashamed by you? As you know, someone like us have nothing special, except
of our own spirit and just dreams, that’s it!without a dream someone like us will
die’’ said Arai wisely. Maybe when we have graduated later, we just someone
whose works as pan tin and a porter, but here , in this school we never over
precede our destiny, he continued.’’ We just do the best here. We will be
wonder to cross over the Europe to the Africa. We will school to France. We
will take our foot on the Altar Suci Almamater Sorbonne, whatever happened
later’’, Arai was screaming hardly, and finally he made Ikal’s feeling opened
once a while. And then Ikal ran to chase his father to ask him for forgive all
of his mistakes. And at the time Ikal got spontaneously his spirit to find his
dreams again.
And the graduation was come, it is the
time for the three boys Ikal, Arai, and Jimbron go to crossing over the seas to
get their dreams. But, unfortunately, Jimbron did not follow Arai and Ikal. He
just gave two money boxes that he saved special for his lovely friends. He felt
that Arai and Ikal have the biggest chance to get it. Caused,by they more
genious than him. He was very happy when he could help them with those money
boxes. Arai and Ikal really surprised, they were unexpected with Jimbron’s
plan.’’ Just take it. Let my life more useful with you. If I can give more than
this money boxes, I will give you friend.’’ Go a head!! If you have arrived to
the French, over the Europe to Africa, it means that I will be there, go to
everywhere together with you’’, jimbron said honestly. He is a best friend who
wants to sacrifice to let the best friends find the happiness.
And finally, they went to Jakarta by using
Bintang Laut Selatan Ship, and they worked hard to mop deck and hold of a ship,
cleaned the toilet and cooking four times in a day. And when they are arrived
to Jakarta, they could not study in the campus directly because they did not have
any money to earn their living. So that’s why they must spend theirtime to work, it is for they daily needs.
Till Ikal got the position in a post office. And then Ikal could continue his
study at Indonesian University. But ikal and aria must be separated because
aria want to find his fortune in Kalimantan.
With their long struggle, study without any money
from their parents. They finally being a success man to find their truly dreams
reach for academician degree as cumlaude. And after that, they also went abroad

kita!!’’(Andrea Hirata,2008:153).
“May
be when I’ll take a graduation in SMA, It is possible for us to be a pan for
tin or become a porter, but here, in this school, we never ever know our
destiny!!’’(Andrea Hirata,2008:153).
The statement above shows that Arai was
giving advice for Ikal to keep study. Even though, after graduation they will
become a pan for tin or a porter more. But, at least he must have an education
first. And face what happened to him now. For the future let be the secret of God
because sometimes we like to predict our future. But, one thing that we have to
know that it is not all of optimistic of the future will be happy. The
pessimistic is something usual for everyone, but if we want to survive, so we
must have a high spirit and dared to take a dream. Believe that, at the next
time we will be more successful. And to get it we need an education background
that gives everything we need more than our expectation. Pessimistic is may not
done by someone, but optimistic must be stronger, because without the high
conviction would be able to walk in way of life which is need a powerful of it
because there is always a challenge in front of us. If we can not avoid the
small things what about the biggest one.
The educational value of this statement is

successful. And do not ever know the destination because it has controlled by
Allah SWT. And we also could to change our destiny if we want to change it too.
The statement above
Quotation 2

menarik dari Arai, yaitu ia mampu melihat keindahan di balik sesuatu, keindahan
yang hanya bias orang temui di dalam mimpi-mimpinya’’(Andrea
Hirata,2008:51-52).
“Since
that, I know the spectacular for Arai’s life that is he able to imagine the
beautiful things beside something. The beauty that could be find out of human
in a dream’’ (Andrea Hirata,2008:51-52).
The statement above shows that human was
created by Allah SWT with the superiority of mind to think about something.
However by the superiority, the human should it carefully. Like, Arai, what
ever he did, he could use his mind to think a beauty and take a lesson in a
problem. Most people looking a problem are just in bad aspect without think
that Allah gives any problems with wisdom inside it. We would get all of the
superiorities by concerning the two different parts and we choose the best of
it. So let use your mind that have been giving by Allah special for us.
The education value of this statement is keeping your
problems as you best experience. Consider it as something nicely and believe
that you’ll never ever be complaint about it.
Quotation 3
“Tak pantas kita berdebat di depan para
orang tua murid. Bicaralah baik-baik, bujuk pak Balia”. (Andrea Hirata, 2008:
8)
“It
is not proper we debate in front of the people responsible for a pupil; please
speak well, said Mr. Balia”. (Andrea Hirata, 2008: 8)
The statement above shows us that Mr.
Balia tried to give an advice to Mr. Mustar could not make a debate in front of
the parents there. It possible that the parents thought that the teachers have
an education who teach their children were not shame to make a problem out of
something in a public, and how they can teach their children if the teachers’
attitude solve those problems by an emotional like that,because if we solve a
problem full of wrath in improper condition, it could make a new problem. As a wise
teacher, we should give the best example to handle a problem with the
respectable ways or by a discussion without silly talk and commotion each
other. Because it just showing bad things from our selves.
The educational value of this statement is; the old man should
understand how to make a good discussion. So that the disturbance like that
it’s not proper to do by the people who have an education.
Quotation 4
“0,
5 itu berarti segala-galanya, Pak. Angka kecil seperempat itu adalah symbol
yang menyatakan lembaga ini sama sekali tdak menoleransi
persekongkolan’’(Andrea Hirata,2008:8).
“0,
5 is everything, sir. A little quarter score is the symbol that asserts this
institute absolutely not tolerance for conspiracy’’ (Andrea Hirata, 2008:8).
The statement above shows that in this
case era, the conspiracy in the other side of life often occurred. And so
happened between teachers and students’ parents who want to send their children
in a best school, even though their skills and the certain requirements on academic
could not fulfilled of them. So the system of bribery was did for their wish,
and unrealized that they act is a form of crime especially in education life.
But it was not to Mr. Balia, he is a professional teacher and has a high
commitment to keep a principle and rule that have been determined in his
school. Even it is a smallest conspiracy, but it include of a crime that
influence for everything, because the big things comes from the small things.
And Mr. Balia did not want to risk the future of his school institution with
give any tolerance to the small crime, even that special for someone who has
already make a big meritorious to keep the school.
The education value of this statement is
we may not belittle something even it little. Because, even it small thing, the
evil is can not be corrected.
Quotation 5
“Aku
belajar bahwa pria pendiam sesungguhnya memiliki rasa kasih saying yang
berlebih disbanding pria sok ngatur yang merepet saja mulutnya’’(Andrea
Hirata,2008:87)
“I
learned that a calmly man is actually has the biggest love and affection than
the talk active man which is has an over control habitation’’ (Andrea Hirata,
2008:87).
The statement above shows that sometimes
we tried to evaluate someone from his/her physic only and never looked inside
it. Everyone has own character to each other. It look like Ikal’s father, he is
a silently man, but has great affection and care of his children. Ikal’s father
often works than talks, and it showing us how authority he is.
The educational value of this statement is: it is best for you
to keep your mouth by silent, but still to take care of the people around us.
Than talk more do less, because like the wise word said that silence is golden.
Quotation 6
“Boleh
saja rangkingmu tinggi, tapi soal kuda? Kau tak tahu apa-apa,Kal!!’’(Andrea
Hirata, 2008:129).
“You
may have the best rank, but what about the horse? You know
nothing..Kal!!(Andrea Hirata, 2008:129).
The statement above shows that even Ikal
has the best rank in his school, but if he asked by another about horse, he
knows nothing. But, Jimbron knows everything about horse, even he also did not
get high rank like Ikal. It shows that everyone has the own superiority and
weakness, because we created by Allah with those both side. And we must respect
on lake of another one.
The educational value of this statement is we realize that
everyone has weakness, even she/he actually really genius. Because,we can not
deny that Allah create us with the weakness and superiority.
Quotation 7
“Ah,
ayahmu Ikal, diundang pelantikan Bupatipun baju safarinya tak beliau keluarkan.
Hanya untukmu Ikal, yang terbaik dari beliau hanya untukmu’’(Andrea
Hirata,2008:149).

your father Ikal, when he invited to a district’s inauguration, he did not wear

costume with four pockets was only wearing when he acceptance a rapport of his
son. Beside that, he never wears it to come on a district’s inauguration
invitation. That is the form of his affection to his beloved son. So, it is
proper for us as a child to be more respect the sacrifice and appreciation that
was given by our parents. For them, the happiness of their children is
everything. Even they must sacrifice whatever they have.
The education value of this statement is you do not ever make
disappointed your parents who support you to get your ambition.

educational values that useful in our life. These values then are shown by
quotation above.
Quotation 1
“Meskipun
perasaannya telah luluh lantah pada usia sangat muda tapi ia selalu positif dan
berjiwa seluas langit. Mengingat masa lalunya yang pilu, aku kagum pada
kepribadian dan daya hidupnya. Kesedihan hanya tampak padanya ketika ia mengaji
Al-Qur’an. Di hadapan kitab suci itu ia seperti orang yang takluk, seperti
orang yang kelelahan berjuang melawan rasa kehilangan seluruh orang yang
dicintai” (Andrea Hirata, 2008: 33)
“Even
his feels has been smashed to smithereens when his teenager until now, but
always be a positive thinker and has the white soul for the real life. I remind
for his bad experience, but I am still proud of his personality and spirit of
life. The sadness is only shown to him when he tried to read the holly Qur’an,
as if was yield, tried to fight the scare to lose his beloved man” (Andrea
Hirata, 2008; 33).

experience was not as an obstruction for Arai to get his spirit in this life.
He was always positive thinking that his experience was not in tears. But go
out to reach his future now. And even he has any problems, the exactly place to
share about is just to Allah, who has created the human being in this world.
Allah always hears every praying of his slave. And it was written in Qur’an
verse that one of our best medicine of all diseases is Al-Qur’an, include of
heart disease, it was proofed that when we tried to read or heard it, our heart
will be cooling down. That is Arai’s feeling when he read it.

this world should be obey all of norms and rules which have been made by Allah
SWT. There was interdiction and command that must be fulfilled. If we break it,
so we will get punishment about what we have done. And our age is just begin
calculating by Allah is profuse about something. Because it could be make us
