Abstract

This research, entitled “The Portrayal of a Feminist Figure in Children’s Book: A Focalization Analysis on Emmeline and The Plucky Pup (2018) by Megan Rix” focuses on how a feminist figure is portrayed in a children’s book. This research employs the concept of focalization by Genette (1972). The findings show that in Emmeline and The Plucky Pup (2018), Mrs. Pankhurst is not only portrayed as a complex feminist figure who strives for equality and women’s right to vote but also as a generous woman who shows her motherly side. This is evidenced by the use of two kinds of focalizations: zero focalization and external focalization. Of the two types of focalizations, zero focalization is more dominantly used in the text. The use of zero focalizations has simplified the portrayal of a complex feminist figure into just two portrayals. The chosen focalizations have also provided more space for telling the readers about the feminist figure rather than showing or challenging the portrayal. Considering its implied reader, the book intends to introduce a complex feminist figure in a friendly and relatable manner as well as to disseminate an ideology in a subtle way. Keywords: children’s book, feminist figure, complex portrayal, focalization
