  ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

  Once upon a time, I was looking for a place to study English Literature when my father casually mentioned that his alma mater university might have one. Indeed, he was right. So I registered and was desperate for months when they finally accepted me to be one of their students. To this day, I am eternally grateful to the Good Lord for answered prayers, an affectionate family, a brave new world of peers, friends, teachers and lecturers, and above all, the strength to make it all through in these three and a half years. I have been truly blessed that a lot of people have painted my life, making it so colourful as well as beautifully shaped.

  Dra. Christinawati, M.Si., who took me under her wing as my thesis advisor an d as my academic councillor before that. Thank you, Ma’am, for showing me that being kind and patient is the most important trait for someone to possess. Your careful guidance has helped me through some rough spots in my thesis, and I am truly grateful for that.

  Dra. Wan Wan Tjitrodjojo: the outspoken and intelligent woman who gave me life. I have done myriad things I am not proud of, and yet you never give up on me. You are the most motivated person I have ever encountered, and I am still bewildered how you always know what I need before I do. Dr. Antonius Adji Prayitno, Drs., M.S., Apt, the leading man of our family. Thank you for all the hardships you have encountered to keep us well and cared for. You have the largest heart, and I hope I will soon grow into someone as capable as you. Antonia Vania Adji, my only sister and confidante. I am glad that we both share many similar preferences in life. Best of luck to you, Peke. Ce Vonny, my super-brave aunt who takes care of my nieces (Evelyn, Ellen, Ellisia, and Doronthy) after the death of my uncle. I can never thank you enough for constantly helping us with small things in our day-to-day problems. And to our rabbits, Gimli and Balin.

  ABSTRACT

  This study strives to investigate two points respectively, the sensibility trait of the Youngest/Twelfth Princess from Grimm Brothers’ The Worn-Out Dancing Shoes and Jena from Juliet Marillier’s Wildwood Dancing, and the socio-cultural settings which link both texts. Through applying Gerard Genette’s Hypertextuality theory, the descriptive qualitative analysis is conducted to explain the two issues above. Based on the analysis, the study results show that socio-cultural settings significantly affect the two main protagonists of the interlinking texts using two preferred elements of hypertextuality, namely Allusion and Re-vision. Correlating to both elements, Wildwood Dancing offers elongated details and reasons to fill the missing gaps of the original fairy tale. Furthermore, sensibility is later proven to be a significant counterpoint in defending women against patriarchal values.

  Keywords Allusion , hypertextuality, re-vision, sensibility
