This study conducted a comparative analysis between “Lelaki yang menderita bila dipuji” and “Belalang yang suka bergunjing dan tujuh lebah madu”.

This study focused on analyzing Minahasa famous folklores called Toar Lumimuut and Sigarlaki Limbat. Despite just being folklores in the past, due to their popularity, they have been preserved officially in writings and have been considered as local treasure of Minahasa. In order to give them better spot in revitalization due to globalization that give more pressure to the local culture, it is necessary to take specific action to preserve and revitalize them. This study was conducted by gaining data through library research and interview, then analyzed by literary criticism called world literature by David Damrosch. There were five Minahasa local people who participated in the interview. Both of them are males while the other three are females.
