MITE RORO JONGGRANG STRUCTURE PERSPECTIVE C. LEVI STRAUSS
Abstract
This research encourages people to care about preserving folklore and myths so that they are not eroded by time. Myths, especially many millennial people, currently do not care about the existence of myths around them, so that new beliefs arise and the loss of myths that have always existed. Prambanan temple myth is clear evidence that millennial children today do not know the story about Roro Jonggrang, the origin of the Prambanan temple. Millennials currently go to Prambanan to take different pictures with foreign countries interested in the myths at Prambanan temple. This research uses the Levi Strauss theory of structuralism, which has the concept of binary opposition, and items are added to the inner conflicts in the site and the primary values in each story. The researcher's qualitative approach was used as the method's foundation with the observation, interview, recording, and documentation steps. The data analysis used was a descriptive technique. This study found that in the story of the Candi Prambanan, women were more dominant, and the structure of the story produced was five episodes, each of which had a meaning, inner conflict, and virtue. The woman in the Myth rejects men but does not want to hurt, and finally makes a condition not fulfilled. The requirement is to build 99 temples. So nowadays, it is called Prambanan temple.
