Abstract

Madura has a lot of Folktales as the reflection of its values in its social life. As the cultural identity, most of
Madura folktales are the mirror of social values and characteristics of Madura society. Thus, the Madura
folktales contain the moral and religious values as the most important element for Madura society. The aim
of this paper is to identify and to investigate five Madura folktales, these are: The Origin of Madura,
Bangsadcara and Ragapadme, The Origin of Tajungan, Aer Mata Ebu, and Aryo Menak. These five folktales
are chosen because they are the most popular Madura folktales among others. While, the aspects of moral and
religious values are the most dominant elements that can be found in these five Madura folktales. Such two
aspects are the local genious that can be bequeathed from one generation to the next generation. The aspect of
moral will have the close relation with the appreciation and respecting to the parents and teacher on the other
hand, the aspect of religious values are related with sufism and another Islamic values. Both of two aspects
are used as the fundamental of social construction in Madura.
