Pergi kebulan karena suatu hal, dan ditemani Candramawat (kucing yang memiliki tiga warna bulu: putih, kuning, dan hitam). Irisan terjadi karena ada hal-hal yang ingin dipertahankan oleh penulis novel.

Oleh sebab itu, Nini Anteh ditempatkan di bulan, tepat terpisah dari masyarakat bumi.

Abstract

           The Transformation From Oral Folklore Of Nini Anteh To The Novel Of Nini Anteh Tale By A.S. Kesuma. The paper is entitled “The Transformation from Oral Folklore of Nini Anteh to the Novel of Nini Anteh Tale by A.S Kesuma “. The data in this study are in the form of an oral folklore and a novel. The theory used in this research is the transformation theory proposed by Riffaterre. Based on the results of exploration of the structure of the two works, it was found that there are some expansions, conversions, modifications at the level of plot and plotting, character, and background. In both works, there are intersections between them in the form of the depictions of Nini Anteh whose work related to the production of textiles, who was unable to conceive and bear childern, who went to the moon for a reason, and was accompained by Candramawat (a three-colored fur cat: white, yellow, and black). The intersections occur because there are things to be maintained by the novelist: that the Sundanesse people who have religiosity of “mother” figure view Nini Anteh as someone who cannot “provide” life. Therefore, Nini Anteh is placed on the moon, a place apart from the earth.
