Abstract

This study will analyze the cultural values and local wisdom of the Minang ethnic group contained in the short story “Tsunami” by Ismalinar. This study uses an interpretive qualitative descriptive method with a literary anthropological approach. The focus of the analysis rests on local cultural values, both expressed and implied, by observing the principle of benefit in the life of the Minang community and its impact as an enrichment of national culture as common property. Data analysis comes from literature study, namely in the form of narrative text and dialogue between characters in the short story. The data analysis technique uses narrative analysis techniques. The findings of this study indicate that first, the language system in this short story contains several Minang language vocabularies that are synonymous with Indonesian; second, the knowledge system is knowledge of self, knowledge of people, knowledge of nature, and knowledge of God; third, the religious system is obedience in worship; fourth, the art system and the livelihood system are not described in the short story; fifth, the technology system in the form of the gadang house; seventh, the system of social organization is matrilineal and customary in consensus. All of these are certainly useful and can be a positive intake for students or the younger generation in strengthening the character of the nation’s children.
