Abstract

Motherhood is readily observable in our daily life. However, motherhood is not easy to define since it may be applicable to various contexts. Motherhood is easy to recognize in real life; however, it is not easy to recognize in the text. This research entitled “An Analysis of Motherhood in Emma Donoghue’s Room” attempts to reveal motherhood that is constructed in the novel. The data are taken from narrations and dialogues in the novel that indicate traces of motherhood. Rich’s (1976) theory of motherhood is used to analyze the data, in which motherhood is identified through its indicators. This research shows the complex nature of motherhood since motherhood is superimposed upon each other. Based on the analysis, it is found that there are two categories of motherhood which are constructed in the novel, i.e. motherhood as institution, which depicts social goals and cultural goals, and motherhood as experience, which depicts the instinct of the mother in mothering her son.

Keywords: motherhood, motherhood as institution, motherhood as experience
