Khurun 'Ainal Haq, Ali Ma'sum, Muhammad Lukman Arifianto, Mai Khalied Mahmoud Baklizi

Abstract


Examining the structure of a narrative is crucial for readers to comprehend the literary work and gain insights into the author's writing techniques. This research focuses on analyzing the textual structure of Khalil Gibran's short story 'صراخ القبور' (The Screaming of Graves), encompassing plot, themes, characters, and setting. Utilizing a qualitative approach and structuralism analysis techniques, the study employs library research methods. The data analysis reveals that the theme revolves around justice. The plot exhibits a non-linear progression, and the main character is the 'I' character, supported by three other characters. The setting is described extrinsically, incorporating both time and place. The narrative utilizes multiple points of view. Each intrinsic element within the story is interconnected, forming a cohesive and integrated meaning.

Keywords
