    Abstract

    The title of this paper is Gender Roles in Japanese Legends. The study is focused on understanding gender roles found in the five Japanese legends written by several authors which are F. Hadland Davis, A. B. Mitford, and Andrew Lang. The researcher is interested in investigating gender roles because of her curiosity toward stereotypes that says males are masculine and females are feminine. The qualitative approach is used to describe gender roles in the stories. The descriptive method is then applied exploring the systemic functional grammar. Based on the features of the data, the researcher uses transitivity analysis as the main linguistic tool to answer the research questions of this study. The nominal group analysis is also used as the other linguistic tool to reveal gender stereotypes. Based on the transitivity analysis, the roles of males are as doer and sensor. Meanwhile, the roles of females are as a modified carrier and peripheral. From the nominal group analysis, there are two stereotypes for male, which are male is strong and possessing 'adjustable' like a 'frog'. The stereotypes for females are different from males. Female is assumed as a beautiful, good, but weak one. This means that the male and female characters are represented differently in the stories regarding to the roles and stereotypes they possessed.
