- Abstract
This study aims at revealing (1) aesthetic codes in Indonesian novels in the 2000s and (2) aesthetic forms in Indonesian novels in the 2000s. Those two problems are considered necessary to study further as aesthetic conception is formed by making uses of cohesive language codes. This current study employed descriptive method by in-depth meaning interpretation. The data had been taken from novels in the decade of 2000s, namely; Jatisaba by Ramayda Akmal, Geni Jora by Abidah El Khalieqy, and Lanang by Yonathan Rahardjo. The data were in the forms of narrations, represented by dialogues and monologues of the characters containing verbal and non-verbal aesthetics. The collected data were, then, analyzed by means of; (1) descriptive approach, (2) hermeneutic approach, and (3) interactive-dialectical analysis based on the facts. The research findings were elaborated as follows; (1) aesthetic codes in Indonesian novels in 2000s are detected through the use of aesthetic expressions by making use of words or phrases representing social, cultural, and political nuances. The unity built in the story and narration has contributed to an insight that the language provides ample energies to build up the story plots; (2) aesthetic forms in Indonesian novels in 2000s have been marked by the changes of society over time and ,thus, aesthetic conception is embedded into the content of the stories.
