Abstract

This study aims to describe the characteristics of the main characters in “Legenda Baturaden” as well as to examine whether self identity or social identity could win ones’ love. It is a qualitative descriptive method using the lenses of identity and social identity theories. The source of the research data is “Legenda Baturaden” from a web (https://uun-halimah.blogspot.com/2014/08/legenda-baturaden.html), while the data are mainly the actions of the characters in the story. The data analysis techniques are reading, note taking, and document analysis techniques. Interestingly, the princess also forms her personal identity similar to the servant’s through her love for him. Thus, it is their personal identities, out of his social identity, that becomes a drive for them to disobey their parents and go away from the duchy to create their future as husband and wife. It is found out that personal values poses self identity higher than social identity.
