ABSTRACT

This article discusses the role of oral tradition in character formation, with a case study on Mo'odulele poetry in Rawa Lopa, Southeast Sulawesi. As a form of cultural communication that is passed down from generation to generation, oral tradition, especially Mo'odulele poetry, not only functions as entertainment, but also as a medium for transmitting moral and social values that shape the character of the community. Through the approach of cultural communication theory and social construction, this article analyzes how Mo'odulele poetry conveys moral messages such as honesty, honor, and respect for parents that influence the behavior and identity of individuals in the community. The results of the study indicate that Mo'odulele poetry plays a significant role in character formation in the Rawa Lopa community, strengthening social ties, and preserving local cultural values. Thus, this oral tradition has a strategic role in maintaining the character and cultural identity of the local community.
