This paper aims to investigate the direct and indirect effects of service quality and customer satisfaction on customer loyalty in the hotel service industry. It proposes to confirm a theoretical model which has not been identified in the literature within the spectrum of the hotel industry in Indonesia. A quantitative methodology was used in this study. 182 respondents of hotel customers in Indonesia were used to gather information about their perception of service quality, customer loyalty and satisfaction. PLS-SEM was used to analyse the collected data and to specify the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) of the hypothesised model. The results revealed that SERVQUAL affects positively on customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. Similarly, the testing showed the positive effect of customer satisfaction on customer loyalty. A significant mediation effect of customer satisfaction was found on the relationship between SERVQUAL and customer loyalty. Therefore, the proposed model helps the hotel operator in developing their customer service development program to enhance customer's satisfaction and loyalty to increase the profitability of the industry. This research contributes to hotel service industry by confirming the proposed structural model and offering insights about the customer perception, which helps hotel operators to more successfully incorporate the service quality to build customer loyalty and achieve customer satisfaction.

Recreating the Anti-hero Judas in the Poems of Abdul Aziz MaqalehThe anti-hero or "antagonist" )الالبطل( is one of the rejected characters of history who is confronted mythical heroes with dramatic contradictions due to a kind of abnormal behavior. Contemporary Arab poets, in order to express contemporary experiences and impose personal and collective concerns on the audience, alongside identifying with heroes, have also called for anti-heroes, which inspires dissatisfaction with the non-implementation of popular ideas and ideals, despair, incompetence of the Arab rulers, betrayals and so on. Among the anti-heroes, Judas Iscariot who is a symbol of betrayal and hypocrisy in history, is an archetype and a reflection of the instability and incompetence of the Arab rulers in governing societies. Abdul Aziz Maqaleh, a contemporary Yemeni poet, is one of the poets who, in the context of his poetry, used this despised religious figure to convey personal and impersonal experiences, and with the help of which he tried to make his audiences aware of the inconsistencies of the times. The study tried to critique and analyze the following two poems "The Age of Yehuza" and "Yehuza" using an analytical and descriptive-analytical approach to reveal the reasons of using it as an anti-hero in a poetic text. It is inferred that Judas is an equivalent for a political enemy who has taken over the rule of the contemporary world, and the author tries to make his audience aware of the dominance of betrayal and hypocrisy in the contemporary world by composing that text.

The purpose of the current research is to investigate the relationships between country personality dimensions and consumer behavioural intentions, and to examine in detail the perceived personality of a stimulus-country. A convenience sample of 130 individuals from Brazil was surveyed and 115 usable questionnaires were analyzed. Portugal was chosen as the country for scrutiny and the questionnaire was delivered in Portuguese. Country personality was measured using the 24 items of personality traits six dimensions scale of d’Astous & Boujbel (2007). The research findings suggest that consumers ascribe personality characteristics to countries. All the items show high factorial weights, and in the proposed model the percentage of the variance of the intention to recommend explained by the perceived country personality dimensions equals around 23%. Assiduousness showed a positive significant influence on intention to recommend, whereas wickedness showed a significant negative influence...
