Abstract

Quite a lot of approaches have been utilized to study fairytales; yet, none has been from an ecolinguistics’ perspective. This writing specifically intends to scrutinize fairytales on the ground of dialectical ecolinguistics as developed by Bang, Door, et al. The main purpose of this writing is to describe the triple dimensions of environment found in fairytales, i.e. bio-logics dimension, socio-logics dimension, and ideo-logics dimension. The result of the analysis shows that: (1) bio-logics dimension in fairytales refers to the environments of humans, animals, plants, other beings, nature, as well as ‘other’ environment; (2) socio-logics dimension refers to relations either among best friends or between rivals embedded with social roles as either conflict-trigger or peace makers individuals, as advisor, as producer, and as consumer; (3) ideo-logics dimension refers to six types of relations, i.e. relations among best friends, relation of hunter-huntee, relation of shop owner-consumer, relation of advisor-client, relation of superiors-inferiors, and relation of master-pets.
