Using cultural semiotic theory by Yuri Lotman, this research uses a descriptive-analytical method to analyze the visual and verbal texts synchronicly and diachronicly on the basis of temporal context to see the relationship between the culture and the focuses. This study indicates several cultural representations on each cover that can only be seen when these focuses are analyzed with their diachronic aspects. Some of the focuses only appears on one cover and not on the two other covers because there are no correlations between the focus it represents and the culture of that country, so the cover chooses to display other focuses which do have cultural and historical correlations with the country. These cultures are represented and contributed to influence the focuses displayed on the cover. The influence on each focuses could take the form through its pose and portrayal, size comparison, visibility, location, color, and also the style of the illustration itself. \u0000Keywords: Cultural Representation, Cover Design, Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone","PeriodicalId":429925,"journal":{"name":"Lililacs Journal : English Literature, Language, and Cultural Studies Journal","volume":"95 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122909945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study will examine Antonio Gramsci’s conception of hegemony by scrutinizing the portrayal of hegemonic power in The Handmaid’s Tale novel by Margaret Atwood. The study reveals that the ruling class in the novel uses consent as its main strategy in maintaining its power and coercion as the shield of its hegemonic power. Consent is most depicted by the use of manipulative discourse. It also shows that the ruling class maintains its authority by using privileges, rewards, movies, mass media, songs, Bible, symbolic outfit, and unified language. The occurrence of coercion in the novel is depicted by an existence of violence. It’s represented by how the Handmaids are punished by using an electric cattle prod once they make mistakes or refuse to fulfill the ruling class’ interests. Another portrayal of repression is depicted during The Salvagings. It’s the occurrence during which those who are guilty are executed by the ruling class’ repressive apparatuses or even by the Handmaids themselves.","PeriodicalId":429925,"journal":{"name":"Lililacs Journal : English Literature, Language, and Cultural Studies Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117257077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
