Review

This study provides a focused and detailed linguistic analysis of "sesulih pratama purusa phrases," or third-person pronominal phrases, as they appear in the historical Raden Said text published by Perpusnas Press. The research sets out clear objectives: to analyze the grammatical elements, explain the types of iconicity, and describe the referential forms and meanings associated with these phrases. This specific focus on iconic grammatical elements within a particular historical text positions the study to offer valuable insights into the linguistic structures and semantic nuances of older Indonesian literary or historical works, thereby contributing to the fields of historical linguistics and philology. The methodology employed, consisting of a listening method with a note-taking technique for data collection and an agih method with a semantic approach for analysis, appears appropriate for the textual nature of the research. The findings present concrete quantitative and qualitative data. Specifically, the study identified 28 third-person pronominal phrases, noting that grammatical elements of third-person pronomina and nomina phrases accounted for the majority of usage (20 instances). Furthermore, all 28 forms were found to be most iconic in the form of symbols, and endophoric reference, predominantly anaphora followed by cataphora, emerged as the most common referential pattern. These precise results offer a structured understanding of how these critical linguistic elements function within the text. In conclusion, this paper successfully delivers on its stated aims by meticulously dissecting the grammatical, iconic, and referential aspects of third-person pronominal phrases in the Raden Said text. The detailed categorization of usage frequency, iconicity types, and referential forms provides a robust foundation for understanding the discourse structure and semantic depth of this specific historical document. The findings are not only significant for researchers interested in the Raden Said text itself but also offer broader implications for the study of diachronic linguistics and the evolution of pronominal systems in Indonesian, potentially encouraging comparative analyses with other classical texts.
