THE PARADIGM DECONSTRUCTION OF THE DIVINE MORAL VALUE IN NOVEL RAHWANA PUTIH

Abstract

The deconstruction of the divine moral value in Rahwana Putih's novel by Sri Teddy Rusdy seeks to
implement high-level Javanese teachings, Sastrajendra Hayuningrat Pangruwating Diyu. Rahwana
figures are able to describe the high-level Javanese teachings as a form of deconstruction of the moral
values of God. This research is a qualitative descriptive study using deconstruction methods related to
the moral values of God in Rahwana Putih's novel. The moral value of the Godhead which has been
exploited all this time, that is, God, Man, has been deconstructed to become a Human God. Or in other
words, humans become central or superior, whereas God becomes marginalized. The results of the
deconstruction research on the moral values of God have a place, namely a change of thought (1)
sacred versus profane, (2) incarnation of god (Rama) good versus incarnation of evil god, (3) evil
human versus good human, and good god versus evil god.
