Abstract

Abstrak. Istilah “young adult literature†(sastra remaja) relatif masih baru di Indonesia. Istilah “young adult†dan “literature†bersifat dinamis, berubah sejalan dengan perubahan masyarakat dan budaya. Di Amerika Serikat, para kritikus sastra dan praktisi pendidikan telah tiba pada kesepakatan tentang definisinya dan beberapa peneliti telah mencoba mendeskripsikan genre ini. Makalah ini membahas karakteristik dari “young adult literature†dengan penekanan khusus pada keberadaannya saat ini bagi pembaca targetnya. Disimpulkan bahwa dengan memasukkan sastra remaja sebagai satu genre karya sastra, konsep tentang karya sastra tampaknya sedang berubah dan berevolusi.
