This study aims to describe the forms of positive and negative connotative meanings and to analyze the functions of connotative meaning in the novel Archipelagos 3: The Power of Imang in Nusantara by Sleepinigloo, based on the theory of J. D. Parera. A descriptive-qualitative method was employed, utilizing "read-and-note" data collection techniques and content analysis for data processing. The research data consisted of excerpts from the novel containing connotative meanings. The results indicate that the novel Archipelagos 3: The Power of Imang in Nusantara contains both positive and negative connotative meanings manifested in words and phrases. Furthermore, the study identified connotative meaning functions consistent with Parera's theory, specifically: stimulating and evoking the senses, stereotypes, popular beliefs, and personal interests.
