FrançOis Valentijn; Antara Etika Dan Estetika, R. Z. Leirissa

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

A controversial book on the history of the VOC in the seventeenth century was written by Fran ois Valentijn, a preacher in the payroll of the Dutch East India Company (VOC). The book (eight volumes), published in 1724-1726, was known by its popular title Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indi n. Most of the materials in the book were pirated from other sources without acknowledging their authors as is the proper practice of historiography. But as to its style, a number of Dutch writers appreciated its esthetic qualities. Beside that, the book is indeed useful to historians today because some of the …

Dejima; Voc Dan "Rangaku", Bambang Wibawarta

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Japan and the Netherlands have maintained a special relationship for about 300 years since the adoption of the National Seclusion policy, the so-called sakoku by the Tokugawa shogunate (1603-1867). The Dutch began trading with Japan and engaging with Japanese society in 1600, when a Dutch ship, De Liefde, arrived in Kyushu. The Tokugawa government measures regarding foreign policy included regulations on foreign access to Japan and a prohibition on Japanese going abroad. Between the middle of the seventeenth to the early nineteenth century, Japan was characterized by a stable political pattern in which representatives of the VOC (Dutch East India …

Literature As A Source For History; The Case Of The "Repen Ripangi" (1886), Willem Van Der Molen

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Teks sejarah berbeda dengan teks sastra. Teks sejarah menceritakan apa yang benar-benar terjadi di masa lalu sementara teks sastra tidaklah demikian. Oleh karena itu, sejarawan sering menghindari penggunaan teks sastra dalam penelitian mereka. Saya berargumen bahwa teks sastra dapat menambahkan dimensi lain pada wawasan sejarah, yang tidak ditemukan dalam dokumen sejarah. Analisis puisi Jawa berjudul Repen Ripangi dari abad kesembilan belas menunjukkan bahwa teks ini, selain memberikan laporan yang sangat menarik tentang pendamaian ideologis seorang reformis muslim, juga membuka jalan bagi penulisnya dalam menyuarakan kritiknya terhadap kekuasaan kolonial Belanda.

Media Dan Monopoli Dagang; Percetakan Dan Penerbitan Di Indonesia Pada Masa Voc, Kasijanto Kasijanto

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

This article addresses the research on media history in Indonesia. The VOC (Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie) period of the seventeenth/eighteenth century, also known as the early modern period, is regarded as a starting point in this study. It was during this time that printing machines were imported from Europe by the VOC authorities. The availability of paper and printing ink also made it possible for the production of printed matter such as forms, books, and other material. The first known printed media was the Bataviasche Nouvelles, which served as a kind of newspaper. This period saw three types of publishing houses: …

Mengabadikan Estetika; Fotografi Dalam Promosi Pariwisata Kolonial Di Hindia-Belanda, Achmad Sunjayadi

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

When the first technology of photography came to the Netherlands-Indies in the nineteenth century, it was only used for government purposes and was not yet meant for public consumption. On the other hand, the rise of colonial tourism in the Netherlands-Indies in the early twentieth century required a medium for promotion. Photographs were the right choice because, as the saying goes, pictures could tell more than words. Photographs for colonial tourism promotions were produced in various forms such as postcards, illustrations in magazines and guide books, and were published by the colonial government as well as by private publishers. This …

Wacana Kolonial Dalam Film "Moeder Dao, De Schildpadgelijkende", Jugiarie Soegiarto

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Documentary maker Vincent Monnikendam compiled the film Mother Dao, the turtlelike (1995) from more than 200 titles of archived films of the Dutch-Indies, shot between 1912 to ca. 1933. This film is neither a remake nor an edited version, but a kind of collage from those hundreds of archival films, all were silent. Monnikendam re-arranged the images and provided them with a new sound frame, consisting of songs, chantings and poems, in Indonesian, Old Javanese, and Sundanese. This new composition is not just creative but also quite provocative. With this arrangement the cineast wanted to show that there was something …

Molding Memory: An Analysis Of The Relationship Between Representations Of Candomblé In Public Places Of Memory And The Afro-Brazilian Community, Lauren Hobby

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

Over eighty-five percent of the population of Salvador, Brazil is of African descent, creating a rich history of cultural, political and social development. Nevertheless the majority of the museums in Salvador have historical spoken very little of this culture and its relationship to the city. In 1982, the Museu Afro-Brasileiro opened, introducing a small museum focused solely on the cultural exchange between Africa and Brazil as well as the development of Afro-Brazilian religiosity. Thinking critically about the importance of museums in the construction and dissemination of awareness, knowledge and respect for cultures as well as the current debates over the …

Artlog: Archiving The Artistic Process, Yvonne Desmond, John Mcauley, Evin Mccarthy, Ciaran Mcdonnell, Charles Pritchard, Pat Donlon

Articles

Currently there is little or no formal attempt to document the processes an Irish artist undergoes when producing a piece of art. With Artlog we aim to provide the artistic community at the Tyrone Guthrie Centre, Annaghmakerring, Co. Monaghan with a forum to not only develop their profile as an artist but also to document their work practices. In this paper we describe how Artlog came about, the relationship between the aesthetics and the importance of heritage, the approach of the project team in organising the archive and finally how interdisplinary collaboration has impacted the project.

An Analysis Of The Ideologies, Strategies And Applications Of Chess And Martial Arts With Respect To Transferable Skills, Torriente Toliver

McCabe Thesis Collection

Chess and martial arts are used to show how to transfer learned skills. Transferable skill is the process by which one uses a learned skill in a different situation. The artifact explains different ways to transfer skills to promote critical thinking. The artifact also shows how to apply the results of attempting to transfer skills to the original skill to enhance understanding of said skill. The artifact defines and describes multiple aspects of chess and martial arts such as tactics, strategy, and thinking. Critical thinking, not results, is the objective of the research.

Vasilisa Maligina Karya A.M. Kollontai; Sebuah Rekonstruksi Atas Konsep Maskulinitas Rusia, Mina Elfira

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

This article is a literary analysis on Aleksandra Mikhailovna Kollontai' Vasilisa Maligina (1923) by using a feminist approach. Issues on masculinity are the focus of the analysis. The main argument of this article is that through the main character of this story - Vasilisa Maligina - Kollontai tried to expose the new image of Russian women by reconstructing the concept of Russian traditional masculinity in Russian society under former Uni Soviet communist government based on patriarchal culture.

"Ini Apel Ni Nya" 'This Here Apple Now'; Deictics In The Malay Speech Of Southwest Malukan Migrants In The Netherlands1, Aone Van Engelenhoven

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Dialek Melayu yang dipakai para pendatang asal Maluku Selatan di Belanda ini memperlihatkan rangkaian demonstrativa dan endofora yang tidak ditemukan dalam bahasa Indonesia baku. Makalah ini mengkaji semantik dari rangkaian unsur deiktik tersebut dalam kerangka linguistik kognitif dan menjelaskannya sebagai sesuatu yang muncul dari bahasa ibu penutur, dengan mencontohkan bahasa Meher dan Leti. Makalah ini ditutup dengan mengaitkan penemuannya dengan bahasa Melayu Tangsi yang diduga adalah nenek moyang dari dialek Melayu yang digunakan pendatang Maluku di Belanda. Dinyatakan bahwa pencarian asal-usul dialek turunan Melayu Pijin sejenis ini hanya bisa dilakukan dengan berfokus pada makna yang disampaikan lewat konstruksikonstruksinya.

Ketika Perempuan Lantang Menentang Poligami; Sebuah Analisis Wacana Kritis Tentang Wacana Antipoligami, Untung Yuwono

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Critical discourse analysis (CDA) has become a very influential interdisciplinary approach, which views a discourse as a form of social practice. Antipoligamy discourse, as a social practice persisted for a long time ago in Indonesia, offers chalenging discussions in the perspective of CDA. Teun van Dijk, as one of the pioneers of CDA, articulates ideology as the basis of the social representations of groups. Furthermore, he advocates a sociocognitive interface between social structures and discourse structures. Within these views, whenever social groups, including the producers of antipoligamy texts, voice their ideas and feelings, their ideology come up apparently or, otherwise, …

The Risks Of A Mammoth Edition: The Example Of The Complete Letters Of Henry James - Review Of The Complete Letters Of Henry James, 1855–1872. 2 Vols. Edited By Pierre A. Walker And Greg W. Zacharias., Kevin J. Hayes

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979-2011)

With The Complete Letters of Henry James, general editors Pierre A. Walker and Greg W. Zacharias have undertaken such a mammoth task. In their editorial introduction to the first volume, which has been released simultaneously with the second, they explain that by the time it is finished the entire edition will fill at least 140 volumes. If the editors can maintain their two-volume-a-year pace—in itself quite ambitious—simple division tells us that it will take seventy years to finish the project. The Complete Letters of Henry James is one of those cathedral-like works whose editors will not live long enough to …

If You Have To Explain It, Is It Still Funny?, Beth Luey

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979-2011)

Is editing humor different from editing political correspondence, personal letters, journals, and the materials that most documentary editors deal with? Transcription surely is the same, but what about annotation? When I asked three editors to present papers on the subject, they were reluctant to do so because they didn’t think they did anything differently than editors whose subjects are less funny. But it seemed to me that there would be differences. Humor is often topical and very much tied to its time: any script of The Daily Show resurrected fifty years from now would require a lot of explanation. Does …

A Place In The Sun: Review Of The Selected Papers Of Margaret Sanger, Volume 2: Birth Control Comes Of Age, 1928–1939. Edited By Esther Katz; Peter C. Engelman And Cathy Moran Hajo, Associate Editors; Amy Flanders, Assistant Editor., Jimmy Wilkinson Meyer

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979-2011)

Birth control advocate Margaret Sanger (MS) was, and still is, both revered and reviled for her efforts to move contraception out from the shadows of illegality and obscenity into the light of widespread acceptance. During her radical activist days (1910s–1920s), MS honed her leadership, networking, and speechmaking skills and often depended on direct action to further her cause.1 By 1930 she had departed from her radical cohorts but continued to employ her broadening network of contacts. The Selected Papers of Margaret Sanger, Volume 2: Birth Control Comes of Age, 1928–1939 covers the efforts and life of MS during this era. …

The Pitfalls Of Digital History: Review Of Digital History: A Guide To Gathering, Preserving, And Presenting The Past On The Web. Daniel Cohen And Roy Rosenzweig., David Spiech

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979-2011)

With Digital History, Dan Cohen and Roy Rosenzweig have attempted to boost scholarly authors and editors into the wild world of web publishing, even those who have tried to maintain a conservative academic distrust of electronic media. They write engagingly and frankly, addressing the reader as a colleague who knows historical material well but needs comprehensive background about every facet of digital access and presentation.

Yet Another George Washington Website: The Digital Edition And The Future Of Documentary Editing, Jennifer E. Stertzer

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979-2011)

In 2005, work commenced on what has become The Papers of George Washington Digital Edition. A small team was assembled, and the process of converting legacy volumes to XML began. For the past two years we have been busy entering corrections and changes, linking documents, tackling consistency issues, and correcting errors introduced by our conversion vendor. Though much of the work has been tedious, the resulting digital edition, released earlier this year, is an important milestone for the project. But it’s more than just another George Washington website. This site contains all the features of the print edition, but it …

Founding Fathers Face The Senate, Charlene Bickford

On December 15, 2007, The Washington Post published an article by staff writer Jeffrey H. Birnbaum titled “In the Course of Human Events, Still Unpublished: Congress Pressed on Founders’ Papers.” This article focused on complaints that the editions publishing the papers of Founders John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington, collectively known at the Founding Fathers Papers (FFP), which noted historian David McCullough called “as worthy as any publishing effort that I know of,” take too long to finish and are not accessible enough in the electronic age of free online resources. Comments from Rebecca W. …

Humor And Its Hazards: Editing The Papers Of Will Rogers, Steven K. Gragert

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979-2011)

Almost from the opening day of the Memorial, discussion began about publishing Rogers’s collected works. An early one-volume effort appeared in 1949. Author and magazine editor Donald Day literally cut and pasted several of Will’s newspaper and other writings—retyped versions, fortunately—to produce the chronologically sequenced The Autobiography of Will Rogers, published by Houghton Mifflin. Other trade books and assorted academic studies came into print over the next several years, but no serious attempt was made to collect and edit his published works.That is, until 1967. In March of that year, Paula Love, the curator of the Memorial since its opening, …
