Nilai Humanisme dalam Novel "Nyala Semesta" karya Farah Qoonita dan Pemanfaatannya sebagai Materi Pembelajaran Sastra di SMA

Abstract

Recently, the issue of humanism has been discussed frequently, because the value of humanism in society has begun to fade due to individualism, materialism, and other views of life that are contrary to the noble values of an independent country. The perspective of religion as a reason for human life to interact with other humans can foster the values of humanism that exist in society. Literature learning functions as a character builder for students. Therefore, this study discusses the values of humanism contained in the Nyala Semesta Novel by Farah Qoonita so that it can be used as an alternative material for learning literature in high school. The theoretical basis for humanism used is the value of Islamic humanism based on Ali Syari'ati's perspective. This study is a qualitative study with a pragmatic approach to literary criticism research design. The results of this study indicate that in the Nyala Semesta novel by Farah Qoonita there are humanism values: the value of human dignity which includes human efforts to achieve ideals through higher education and human efforts to maintain self-esteem; the value of empathy and solidarity in the form of family ties, loyalty, and mutual assistance; and the value of freedom of thought and action which includes the right to religion (Hifzhud-din), the right to protect the soul (Hifzhun-nafs), the right to protect reason (Hifzhud- ‘aql), the right to continue the lineage (Hifhun – nasl), the right to protect property (Hifzhul-mal). The results of this study can be used as an alternative material for learning literature in high school.
