Literature and love are two things that are often associated with society, which seems to have become a very inherent stereotype for literary children. This stereotype makes people usually assume that literary children are a couple who will be romantic and full of poetic words every day. In addition, the number of literary children or people who write literary works, especially poetry with romantic themes, supports this stereotype. Many writers write their literary works with romantic themes because these themes are considered more capable of conveying feelings that are difficult to express. In addition to the problem of love, of course, this episode will discuss the heartbreak that is always a package with love. Love and heartbreak are two things that cannot be separated, when we fall in love of course we will also feel heartbreak.

In this episode, Belantara Podcast presents two resource persons who are proficient in their fields, namely Yuniardi Fadilah known as Mas Didit who is a lecturer in Indonesian Literature, and Almas Zhafrina Avrilia who is a student of Indonesian Literature class 22. In this episode, Mas Didit and Almas will share their romantic stories with the audience and of course, also the stereotypes attached to literature children. We also see Mas Didit’s opinion from the academic side, an Indonesian Literature lecturer, responding to the stigmas on literary children that are increasingly being highlighted by society. In this month’s podcast edition, Mas Didit and Almas will share their opinions from different perspectives.

So, can love and heartbreak be used as a source of inspiration in literary works, or on the contrary, can writers become less enthusiastic in writing their literary works? We can enjoy it together in the July edition of Podcast Belantara.
