Abstrak
Sastra diyakini memiliki peran dalam membentuk persepsi anak-anak tentang dunia, namun sayangnya cerita-cerita yang terkandung di dalamnya memiliki banyak bias gender. Penelitian ini menggunakan analisis wacana Theo van Leeuwen untuk mendeteksi dan meneliti bagaimana perempuan dan alam mengalami eksklusi dari hubungan mereka dengan subjek lain. Beberapa praktik eksklusi yang disajikan antara lain: misogini/seksis, stereotip dan hubungan tidak setara lainnya yang dalam konteks ini digunakan untuk melihat hubungan antara gender dan alam. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa perempuan dan alam memiliki hubungan penting yang ditunjukkan melalui penggunaan metafora, latar alam, keberadaan tumbuhan dan hewan yang muncul langsung dalam cerita. Di bagian lain, alam dan perempuan tampaknya terpinggirkan karena keduanya digambarkan secara minor dan terus menerus diangkat sebagai objek. Di sisi lain, ada juga cerita yang dianalisis menunjukkan adanya simbolisme mutualisme antara alam dan perempuan dalam melawan dominasi patriarki.

[Literature is believed to play a role in shaping children's perceptions of the world. Unfortunately, many stories contain significant gender bias. This study uses Theo van Leeuwen's discourse analysis to examine how women and nature experience exclusion from their relationships with other subjects. Several exclusion practices include misogyny/sexism, stereotypes, and unequal relationships, which in this context are used to explore the connection between gender and nature. The findings of this research indicate that women and nature share a significant relationship, as demonstrated through the use of metaphors, natural settings, and the presence of plants and animals that appear directly in the stories. In other part, nature and women seem marginalized as both are portrayed in minor roles and continuously presented as objects. On the other hand, stories are analyzed that reveal a mutual symbolism between nature and women in resisting patriarchal domination.]
