This research is classified as qualitative research. The data are divided into main data and secondary data. Three short stories written by different authors are used as the main data. They are “The Man Who Would Be King” by Rudyard Kipling, “The Revenge of Her Race” by Mary Beaumont, and “An Outpost of Progress” by Joseph Conrad. The first two stories are taken from anthology Stories by English Author: Orient (1902) published by Project Gutenberg.

This research belongs to qualitative research. Postcolonial study and Paul Ricoeur’s hermeneutics are used as approach and methodology respectively. The data are analyzed using structuralism to construct the representation of native people for the sake of distanciating. The findings from this objective analysis then are analyzed within postcolonial study to reveal the reflection of colonialism and to serve as appropriation.
This research finds that Kipling, Beaumont, and Conrad construct two contradictory worlds to place the native people and British people separately. The native people’s places are described as static and mysterious while the people are described as savage. However, the authors’ descriptions of native people are based on partial knowledge. The short stories display ambivalence and class division as the effect of colonialism. The natives are placed below the British people as the second class. The ambivalence in Kipling and Beaumont’s stories tend to be negative. On the contrary, the ambivalence in Conrad’s story gives positive feeling.

This research uses Postcolonial studies as approach and applies Paul Ricoeur’s Hermeneutics as the methodology. This research is classified as qualitative research. The data are divided into main data and secondary data. Three short stories written by different authors are used as the main data. They are “The Man Who Would Be King” by Rudyard Kipling, “The Revenge of Her Race” by Mary Beaumont, and “An Outpost of Progress” by Joseph Conrad. The first two stories are taken from anthology Stories by English Author: Orient (1902) published by Project Gutenberg. The last short story is taken from anthology entitled Tale of Unrest (1888) published by Free Classic e-book. The secondary data are taken from other sources related to this research, both printed and online resources.
The three short stories analyzed in this study contain the representation of native people. The authors construct two contradictory places to show the white men’s superiority to the native people. The native people are presented as a primitive race while the white people pictured as a civilized race. This representation is not accurate because the authors only have partial knowledge of the native people. The native people are placed as second class in class division. The ambivalence occurs within the native people both negative and positive. The ambivalence in “The Man Would Be King” and “The Revenge of Her Race” are negative while it has positive atmosphere in “An Outpost of Progress”.
