Abstract

Literary works are the result of a writer’s reflection on his socio-cultural environment. Writers then express these reflections in beautiful language with their imagination and creativity. Therefore, apart from containing entertainment elements, literary works also contain didactic elements in terms of socio-cultural dimensions, humanity, morality, feminism and religiosity. The purpose of this writing is to describe the dimensions of religiosity and humanity in Indonesian literature. The research uses descriptive qualitative methods with inductive logic. The object of this research is the dimensions of religiosity and humanity in Indonesian literature. The research data is in the form of soft data, namely words, expressions, sentences and discourse that represent dimensions of religiosity and humanity using Indonesian literary data sources. Data was collected using documentation techniques. Data analysis was carried out using a Literary Sociology approach using the content analysis method and the dialectical method. The results of this research are that through experiencing literature, readers will be able to discover moral values and ideas about religiosity and humanity which are useful for enriching the human inner treasure.
