Potret Kehidupan Pedesaan Masyarakat Banjar Era Covid 19 dalam Kisdap Tangisan Anak Banua

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to describe the portrait of the rural life of the Banjar community in the Covid 19 era in the Tangisan Anak Banua situation. Kisdap is a short story in Banjar language. Kisdap Tangisan Anak Banua represents Banjar regional literary works that tell the problems of the life of the village community in earning a living. The simplicity and dilemma of the characters in defending a plot of rice fields on which the family lives are based become a touching story. The choice to sell land to a coal company creates both hope and misery for the character. The pressure to sell from the village apparatus is increasingly cornering his choice. This stance at the same time provides an overview of the hardships of people's lives in meeting their daily needs. This research is a descriptive study using qualitative methods. The approach used to analyze kisdap uses the sociology of literature. Data collected through a literature study. The data source chosen came from Hatmiati's book Pilangur salusin kisdap. The collected data is then processed by doing three stages, namely identification, classification, and interpretation of data. The results showed that the portrait of rural life in the Banjar community relies on nature to survive, namely by farming. However, the amount of agricultural land owned by the Banjar community has decreased due to pressure from the purchase of land for a coal company
