Patriarchic Culture as One of the Repertoires in the Sampek and Engtay Scripts by Nano Riantiarno

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the embodiment of patriarchal culture as a repertoire in the plays Sampek and Engtay, which is the background of the creation so that the foreground intended by the author can be revealed. This study uses Wolfgang Iser’s repertoire theory as the formal object and the text of the Sampek and Engtay plays as the material object. After that, material objects that contain textual reality (reality in the text) are then connected with everything that is the background of creation, including social, cultural, and historical norms as extratextual reality (reality outside the text).
