Political Rhetoric in the Digital Age: A Linguistic Analysis of Persuasion and Power
General Background Digital media have reconfigured how political communication operates, reshaping the linguistic practices that structure persuasion and power. Specific Background Traditional rhetorical strategies rooted in logos, ethos, and pathos now intersect with the speed, interactivity, and multimodality of online platforms. Knowledge Gap Despite extensive scholarship on classical rhetoric, less is known about how political actors linguistically adapt persuasive strategies within rapidly evolving digital environments. Aims This study examines contemporary political rhetoric by analyzing large corpora of social-media posts and speeches to identify the rhetorical mechanisms politicians use to construct authority, influence audiences, and negotiate power. Results The findings indicate substantial shifts in political discourse, marked by increased personalization, hybrid oral–digital delivery, and intensified reliance on authority appeals, emotional framing, and strategic identity construction. Quantitative patterns reveal differentiated agency across platforms, while qualitative cases show how digital affordances reshape rhetorical efficacy. Novelty The study integrates large-scale corpus analysis with rhetorical theory to provide an empirically grounded account of how digital communication restructures persuasive political language. Implications These insights underscore the need to reconceptualize political rhetoric within a multiscalar digital framework, highlighting how evolving communicative ecologies reshape public discourse, political influence, and democratic engagement.

Meta-Theatricality and the Collapse of Illusion in Postmodern Plays
General Background: Postmodern theatre is characterized by the intentional exposure of its own artifice, challenging conventional dramatic illusion and encouraging audiences to question the nature of representation. Specific Background: Plays such as Waiting for Godot, The Bald Soprano, and The Vagina Monologues employ meta-theatrical strategies including fourth-wall breaks, nonlinear narratives, and intertextual references to foreground self-reflexivity and destabilize narrative coherence. Knowledge Gap: Although extensive scholarship has examined meta-theatricality, limited studies systematically connect these strategies to the broader cultural and philosophical conditions that define postmodern dramaturgy. Aims: This study analyzes how meta-theatrical techniques in selected postmodern plays contribute to the collapse of theatrical illusion and reveal deeper existential, aesthetic, and cultural concerns. Results: Close analysis shows that fragmentation, irony, and self-referential performance consistently destabilize realism, reposition spectators as active interpreters, and foreground the artificiality of theatrical space. Novelty: The study demonstrates that meta-theatricality does not merely break illusion but becomes a structural method for questioning authenticity, truth, and meaning within postmodern culture. Implications: These findings highlight meta-theatre as both an artistic and cultural practice that reshapes audience perception, challenges representational norms, and reinforces theatre’s ongoing relevance as a site for critical reflection in a rapidly shifting cultural landscape. Highlight : *]:pointer-events-auto [content-visibility:auto] supports-[content-visibility:auto]:[contain-intrinsic-size:auto_100lvh] scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]" dir="auto" tabindex="-1" data-turn-id="00511d7b-d1f6-43f3-908e-8cb7ddaf6516" data-testid="conversation-turn-6" data-scroll-anchor="true" data-turn="assistant"> Shows the collapse of theatrical illusion through self-reflexive techniques.

Tooth mobility is a common clinical manifestation of advanced periodontal disease that affects chewing function, aesthetics, and patients’ quality of life. Managing this condition requires a comprehensive approach, including stabilization procedures such as splinting and adjunctive therapies like chlorhexidine. To enhance healthcare providers' competencies, Muhammadiyah Hospital Malang conducted a clinical training workshop on the emergency management of mobile teeth. This workshop involved 30 dentists and covered theoretical knowledge, hands-on practice of splint fabrication using orthodontic wire and composite resin, application of chlorhexidine gel, and clinical case discussions. Evaluation through pre- and post-tests demonstrated a significant increase in participants’ knowledge (from 55% to 85%). The training not only improved participants’ technical skills but also strengthened interprofessional collaboration in managing complex periodontal cases. The outcomes underscore the importance of integrating similar programs into continuing education to support the improvement of dental healthcare quality and the implementation of higher education’s tridharma (education, research, and community service).
Pelatihan Penanganan Pasca Cabut Gigi dengan Hyaluronic Acid bagi Dokter Gigi di Sidoarjo
Post-extraction emergencies such as dry socket, uncontrolled bleeding, and infection remain significant challenges in dental practice. Hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural substance with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, has been proven to accelerate wound healing and reduce post-extraction complications. This community service activity involved a training workshop on the clinical application of hyaluronic acid (HA) for dentists in Sidoarjo Regency, aimed at enhancing their knowledge and skills in hyaluronic acid (HA) use. The one-day training employed lectures, case discussions, and clinical simulations and was attended by 25 dentists. Results showed a 35% improvement in participants’ understanding of hyaluronic acid (HA)’s role in accelerating healing and preventing complications. Evaluation indicated that hyaluronic acid (HA) effectively reduces pain, prevents complications such as dry socket, and promotes wound reepithelialization. This training is expected to improve the standard of dental care and serve as a replicable model for other regions. The implementation of hyaluronic acid (HA) as a post-extraction protocol supports evidence-based practice and natural material innovation, leading to optimal clinical outcomes.
Pelatihan Penanganan Pasca Cabut Gigi dengan Chlorhexidine bagi Dokter Gigi di Sidoarjo
Tooth extraction is a common dental procedure that carries the risk of complications such as alveolar osteitis (dry socket). Chlorhexidine digluconate, a broad-spectrum antiseptic, has been proven effective in reducing the risk of infection and accelerating wound healing following extraction. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of chlorhexidine usage training for dentists at National Hospital in improving competencies related to the prevention of post-extraction complications. The training was conducted as an intensive workshop comprising presentations, interactive discussions, and clinical simulations. Evaluation through pre-tests and post-tests demonstrated an average knowledge increase of 40%, while practical observations indicated enhanced skills in the correct application of the antiseptic. These results confirm that comprehensive training can improve dentists’ abilities to implement chlorhexidine use to prevent alveolar osteitis and other complications. Consequently, this program contributes to improving the quality of dental healthcare services and serves as a sustainable professional development model in clinical dental practice.
