Abstract

The realization of masculinity can be in the form of expressions uttered by characters in the novel. This research is aimed to examine the translation of expressions containing Jacob Black’s masculinity in the Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight Saga Novels and its Indonesian translation. This translation research uses Systemic Linguistic Functional especially Appraisal theory as a tool in the investigation. Qualitative research is used. Data are taken from four series of Twilight novel with purposive sampling. Data are analyzed by determining the masculinity in the novels of Twilight Saga and its Indonesian translations, determining the appraisal system of the source text and target text and comparing both systems to evaluate the translation of masculinity expressions. The result shows that (1) Jacob Black’s masculinities are in the form of physical, interpersonal, intellectual, sexual, and emotional; (2) The change of appraisal systems will affect the messages (masculinity) in the target text; (3) Masculinity in the target text are mostly maintained (4) There are 13 translation techniques used to translate Jacob Black’ Masculinity expressions in which established equivalence is dominantly used. This research could be the consideration in translating men’s character into Indonesian and other languages.
