Outlines
📚 Introduction to Post-Colonial Theory
The speaker, Dila Padilla, starts the session by introducing the topic of post-structural literary theory, specifically focusing on post-colonial theory. They mention that the audience has previously received materials on deconstruction and feminist literary criticism. The session aims to explore the concept of post-colonialism, which refers to the period following the end of colonialism worldwide, marked by the end of World War II. The theory is used to analyze the psychological and sociological impacts of colonial experiences, not only on the colonizers but also on the colonized. It delves into the cultural phenomena that occurred in European ex-colonies, examining various aspects such as history, politics, economy, and literature. Key concepts discussed include power relations, the West-East dichotomy, orientalism, occidentalism, exoticism, ambivalence, and hybridity. The speaker also introduces the term 'mimicry' as an effort by the colonized to imitate their colonizers.
🌐 Exploring Concepts of Post-Colonial Theory
In the second paragraph, the discussion continues with an exploration of the concept of mimicry, where the colonized attempt to emulate the colonizers, often in an effort to gain power or acceptance. The speaker also touches on the idea of 'adalia' or 'order', which refers to the labeling and stereotyping of one group by another, not necessarily related to majority or minority status. This labeling can be irrational and is often a one-sided assumption. The term 'diaspora' is introduced, describing the spread of individuals or groups to areas outside their birthplace and culture, often leading to cultural disorientation.

Halo
assalamualaikum warahmatullahi
wabarakatuh pada pertemuan kali ini saya
Dila padilla akan melanjutkan materi
mengenai teori sastra pasca struktural
sebelumnya teman-teman sudah mendapatkan
materi mengenai teori dekonstruksi dan
kritik sastra feminis pada pertemuan
kali ini saya akan membahas mengenai
teori pasca-kolonial
Mari simak PPT berikut sebelumnya kalian
harus mengetahui mengenai Apa itu
pascakolonialisme nah pascakolonialisme
mengacu pada tiga hal yang pertama
periode berakhirnya kolonialisasi di
seluruh dunia yang ditandai dengan
berakhirnya Perang Dunia ke-2 yang kedua
semua tulisan yang berkaitan dengan
pengalaman kolonial baik ditulis oleh
yang pernah menjajah maupun yang pernah
dijajah yang ketiga teori yang digunakan
untuk menganalisis problematik
pasca-kolonial nah teori inilah yang
akan kita bahas pada pertemuan kali ini
lanjutnya apa sih dari pasca-kolonial no
Faruq dari pasca-kolonial adalah
seperangkat pernyataan mengenai kondisi
dan kecenderungan masyarakat yang
terjajah dan pernah terjajah selanjutnya
menurut transparan salah satu ahli yang
membahas mengenai teori pasca-kolonial
mengatakan bahwa teori pasca-kolonial
melihat dampak psikologis dan sosiologis
kolonialisasi Teori ini menganalisis
berbagai gejala cultural yaitu sejarah
politik ekonomi sastra dan sebagainya
yang terjadi di negara-negara bekas
koloni Eropa modern Teori ini tidak
mengarah pada kolonialisme melainkan
hal-hal yang terjadi di negara dan
individu bekas jajahan pasca kemerdekaan
mereka bahkan jauh setelahnya
Nah selanjutnya saya akan menjelaskan
mengenai kata kunci yang ada pada teori
pasca-kolonial pertama relasi kuasa
relasi kuasa ini berkaitan dengan
penjajah dan jajahannya nah relasi kuasa
juga mengarah pada semua bentuk
interaksi tidak setara antarindividu se
orangtua dan anak dosen dan mahasiswa
dan tentunya dalam pertemanan Kalian
juga pasti merasakan bahwa ada teman
kalian yang lebih dominan Nah jadi
ketika ada pemosisian salah satu pihak
lebih rendah dari pihak lain sehingga
menimbulkan keberatan dan ketegangan dan
satu pihak baik implisit maupun
eksplisit disitulah terjadi relasi kuasa
selanjutnya yang kedua yaitu mengenai
barat-timur sebelumnya kita mengetahui
bahwa barat-timur ini adalah arah tapi
dalam teori pasca-kolonial ini
barat-timur miliki arti lain yang
bermuatan politis Selain itu barat-timur
itu terkait tentang siapa yang menguasai
dan siapa yang dikuasai
selanjutnya yang ketiga tentang
orientalisme yaitu cara pandang barat
atas Timur
nah pandangan barat sendiri Ini dia
menganggap Timur ini serba kurang dan
negatif contohnya kulit putih dan cerah
seperti ras tahu khasnya ini Hai
dianggap lebih baik dibanding kulit
coklat atau hitam
selanjutnya yaitu oksidentalisme cara
pandang Timur atas barat nah
oksidentalisme ini kebalikan dari
orientalisme tadi yang
Timur ini memiliki pandangan bahwa Barat
merupakan kiblat atau panutannya
contohnya sebagian orang cenderung
maupun diri dengan standar barat re
sebab itu munculnya produk-produk
pemutih kulit yang mengikuti
si barat ini selanjutnya yaitu eksotika
biasanya eksotika yang kita dengar ini
berkaitan dengan keindahan bahkan
menjurus ke sensualitas namun dalam
melepaskan kolonial eksotika ini
berkaitan hal-hal yang berasal dari luar
dari Timur yang tidak sepenuhnya
dipahami Barat yaitu khususnya terkait
alam manusia tradisi pemikiran flora dan
fauna
selanjutnya yaitu ambivalensi
ini valensi merupakan kemenduaan terkait
perilaku yang dimiliki bekas jajahan
maksudnya yaitu disatu Sisi Mereka ingin
memperoleh kemerdekaan namun disisi lain
Mereka ingin menjadi seperti penjajah
contohnya pembuatan
pemutih kulit tadi digunakan untuk
menjadi seperti Barat atau penjajah
yang memiliki kulit putih dan cerah
lanjutnya ada hibrida Nah apa sih beda
ini hibrida merupakan individu yang
dilahirkan dari perkawinan campuran
antara penjajah dan jajahan
namun hibrida diakui mengalami
permasalahan yang tidak sederhana yaitu
tidak sepenuhnya dianggap bagian dari
keluarganya maupun dengan keluarga
ilmiah Nah contoh hibrida ini mungkin
dari kalian pasti sudah tidak asing kan
dengan film Harry Potter ini nah di
dalam Heri Poter terdapat ada golongan
hak beratnya ah Inilah yang disebut
dengan dibidang paniknya ada mimikri
fasih yang dimaksud dengan mimikri
mimikri merupakan usaha peniruan yang
dilakukan bekas jajahan sehingga menjadi
bekas penjajahnya Nah inilah yang salah
satu
nah salah satu contoh ini yang buatan
krim pemutih untuk menjadi seperti
penjajahnya yaitu memiliki kulit putih
dan cerah
selanjutnya adalia atau order
Dian atau saudara merupakan playland
oleh satu pihak kepada pihak yang lain
label and ini tidak serta-merta
berkaitan dengan posisi sebagai
mayoritas atau minoritas label lanjut
juga merupakan anggapan yang disematkan
oleh suatu pihak kepada pihak yang lain
namun plak tidak lagi rasional dalam
memandang orang lain di luar diri dan
golongannya
nah yang terakhir ada diaspora
biar Spora merupakan penyebaran individu
atau kelompok ke wilayah-wilayah di luar
tanah kelahiran dan budayanya Hai di
video diaspora ini tidak langsung
beradaptasi pada rumah barunya bahkan
seringkali mereka mengalami Gegar budaya
dan dari diaspora inilah memungkinkan
terjadinya lahirnya individu tiba-tiba
tadi lanjutnya yaitu pascakolonialisme
dan sastra teks yang dapat ditelaah
dengan memanfaatkan Teori pasca-kolonial
ini tidak terbatas pada cerita yang
berlatar Penjajahan dalam konteks khusus
atau peperangan dan masa-masa setelahnya
Teori ini dapat dimanfaatkan untuk
menelaah teks teks cara umumnya
mengandung peristiwa relasi kuasa baik
secara implisit maupun eksplisit seperti
yang sudah dijelaskan tadi Selain itu
hal-hal yang tadinya tampak biasa dan
dapat diterima karena telah menjadi
kebiasaan masyarakat mulai dicurigai
karena bermuatan politik yang tidak
hanya mengacu pada perebutan kekuasaan
pada sebuah negara melainkan pada segala
sesuatu yang berkaitan dengan usaha
untuk memperoleh yang diinginkan Nah
teman-teman sudah Hai paham apa yang
sudah saya Jelaskan mengenai teori
pasca-kolonial Apabila ada yang ingin
dipertanyakan
kalian bisa
menulisnya melalui kolom komentar yang
ada pada video ini Terima kasih sudah
menyimak penjelasan saya pada pertemuan
kali ini semoga penjelasan ini
bermanfaat kurang lebihnya mohon maaf
