“…Sebagaimana yang juga Bullard sebutkan bahwa narasi adalah sebuah tindakan penyingkapan sejarah masa lalu yang tersembunyi. 89 Tentu saja, tujuan bercerita adalah mengaktualkan peristiwa dan menghadirkan perspektif lain yang dapat mengimbangi pemikiran otoritas mengenai sebuah peristiwa. Bercerita dengan demikian menghadirkan perspektif yang berbeda dengan maksud memberikan pemahaman yang lebih mendalam dan menyeluruh tentang sebuah peristiwa tertentu.…”

Democracy is a political tool that aims to reach agreement and produce fair decisions for everyone. However, it seems that not all democratic processes and decision-making involve individuals or groups who are socially in a weak, powerless, and marginalized position. These groups, such as women, the elderly, minority groups, and the poor, find themselves in a disadvantageous situation, while political decisions made through a democratic process also impact and affect them directly. Based on this thought, Iris Marion Young, a modern feminist political thinker, seeks to dismantle the various democratic symptoms that obstruct the achievement of justice for all. One of the main problems Young identified is the attempt by those in power to ignore or override the role of communities that are not in power, thereby preventing them from taking full part in democratic processes and decision-making. Therefore, Young proposes the need to intrude on inclusion in the democratic process, through communication models which she calls communicative democracy.

“…19 19 As Rebecca Bullard explains, “Secret history's central motif of revelation makes it impossible to determine whether or not its claims should be regarded as fact or fiction” (Bullard, 2009, p. 14), especially since they purport “to reveal secrets – hidden facts, concealed motives, and the mysterious operations of government“ (Bullard, 2017, p. 6). As Nicola Parsons points out, in “the early eighteenth century, the secret history's distinctive blend of fiction, politics and gossip migrated from stand‐ alone publications to London's periodicals” (Parsons, 2017, p. 147). …”

Berkeley is best known for his immaterialism and the texts that extol it-the Principles of Human Knowledge and Three Dialogues Between Hylas and Philonous. He made his case by treatise, then by dialogue, and this tendency towards stylistic experimentation did not end there; this paper explores an early speculative fiction project that pursued his theological and philosophical agendas. Berkeley used satire to challenge his "freethinking" philosophical opponents in "The Pineal Gland" story published in The Guardian in 1713. Echoing the grand tours Berkeley undertook in subsequent years, Part 1 offers a "gland tour" of some literary motivations, influences and legacies of these essays. Berkeley pursues heroic themes from Homer and Alexander Pope, while lampooning the philosophies of both Descartes and the freethinkers.Armed with the device of a magic snuff that transports him to the pineal glands of his adversaries, Berkeley's protagonist uses it "to distinguish the real from the professed sentiments of all persons of eminence in court, city, town, and country". (Guardian, p. 187) Part 1 examines 'The Pineal Gland' in the context of Berkeley's broader philosophical legacy and the text's significant engagement with the literature of Homer and Pope, concluding that "The Pineal Gland" is an important but overlooked source in the history of early speculative fiction. Part 2 continues this analysis by exploring Berkeley's relationship with an expansive London literary
