Abstract

Historical novels that are used together with textbooks and primary sources have made history learning more enjoyable. The function of historical novels is the resurrection of the past, namely the ability to revive the past which is the subject of the story and is able to provide historical information. Learning from past experiences can help shape the character of students to instill an understanding of the development of society past to the present, foster a sense of nationality and love of the homeland and have a sense of pride as citizens of Indonesia, and expand public relations between nations in the world. The novel discussed in this study is the work of Pramoedya Ananta Toer (Pram) entitled "Di Tepi Kali Bekasi". Pramoedya Ananta Toer was a writer who produced novels with a realistic and humanist approach. Pramoedya Ananta Toer wrote a book based on personal experience from the Dutch colonial period until the reformation era. In this study, the researcher describes what is the picture of the reality under study using historical research methods and literatur studies as research techniques. After studying the novel Pramoedya Ananta Toer, students can learn the characters that appear in novels such as the values of humanism, justice, divine values and arouse the spirit of life.
