- Abstract
This study aims to analyze classical prose entitled Kunjarakarna Dharmakathana composed by Mpu Dusun written in the era of Majapahit rule, in the classical Javanese era. Different types of stylistic language using stylistic theory were identified through data analysis. The results show that there is a dominant language style, namely Totem pro parte language style and Snapshot language style. Both are language styles that are not commonly used in scientific literary works, but are found scattered in the prose of Kunjarakarna Dharmakathana composed by Mpu Dusun. There are also lots of moral messages and character education values in this ancient prose, found in Allegory script lines. Language styles which are not broadly used in scientific work will increase exquisiteness and they have a spiritual impact and concretize the ideas that the author wants to convey.
