Dharmawang A'S Heritage On The Appreciation Of The Old Javanese Mah Bh Rata, Willem Van Der Molen
Dharmawang A'S Heritage On The Appreciation Of The Old Javanese Mah Bh Rata, Willem Van Der Molen
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
As we all know, the Old Javanese Mah bh rata was not created from scratch by a Javanese author but was translated (in some sense) from the Sanskrit. The story of Hi imb reveals an interesting difference between the Old Javanese version and the Sanskrit version of the text. In the latter2 Hi imb appeals to Kunt , Bh ma's mother, after Bh ma keeps rejecting her. However, it is not Kunt who gives the answer but Yudhi hira, her son: he is the one who gives permission to Hi imb to take Bh ma as her husband. We should …
The Performance Of Panggung Bangsawan In Riau Lingga; A Reconstruction Of A Theatrical Process, Sutamat Arybowo
The Performance Of Panggung Bangsawan In Riau Lingga; A Reconstruction Of A Theatrical Process, Sutamat Arybowo
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
Panggung Bangsawan is a popular folk theatre in Riau Lingga. The ups and downs in its performance are atributed to changes in social, political, and cultural conditions. This article is a reconstruction of a near extinct Panggung Bangsawan group in the Teluk village in the islands of Riau Lingga. First, I have attempted to describe the staging process; second, to endeavour to understand the phenomenon of change which occurs when a folk tale is transformed from written work into a performance; and third, to expose the transformation of a script (text) divided into scenes into a performance. This is an …
The Impact Of The West Sumatran Regional Recording Industry On Minangkabau Oral Literature, S. Suryadi
The Impact Of The West Sumatran Regional Recording Industry On Minangkabau Oral Literature, S. Suryadi
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
Due to the emergence of what in Indonesian is called industri rekaman daerah 'Indonesian regional recording industries', which has developed significantly since the 1980s, many regional recording companies have been established in Indonesia. As a consequence, more and more aspects of Indonesian regional culture have appeared in commercial recordings. Nowadays commercial cassettes and Video Compact Discs (VCDs) of regional pop and oral literature genres from different ethnic groups are being produced and distributed in provincial and regency towns, even those situated far from the Indonesian capital of Jakarta. Considering the extensive mediation and commodification of ethnic cultures in Indonesia, this …
Lirasniara, The Sung Language Of Southwest Maluku (East-Indonesia), Aone Van Engelenhoven
Lirasniara, The Sung Language Of Southwest Maluku (East-Indonesia), Aone Van Engelenhoven
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
This paper discusses a highly endangered sung style in Maluku Barat Daya along the lines of Sasse's (1992) theory of language death and focusses on structural consequences, the speech behaviour, and the external setting of this oral tradition. It is concluded that if it really has existed and not only in local folklore, Lirasniara must have been a jargon that was replaced by Malay. Only because it already occurred in sung texts during the latter's introduction prevented its total disappearance from the region thus far. The fear remains that in the process of the modernization of Indonesia, it may undoubtedly …

The Revitalization Of Mak Yong In The Malay World, Pudentia Mpss
The Revitalization Of Mak Yong In The Malay World, Pudentia Mpss
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
Culture can only be revitalized when a cultural tradition is considered of significant importance by its owning community. How important it is for the identity of that community or in how far it symbolizes that community can only be established after in-depth study. It is crucial that revitalization activities involve the community. If not, efforts would be pointless. Mak Yong is one of the Malay performing art traditions that has been revitalized over the last five years. It is an art form that originates in southern Thailand and was brought to Bintan in the Riau Islands (Kepulauan Riau, Kepri) via …
The Myth About The Origin Of The Karo House, Juara R. Ginting
The Myth About The Origin Of The Karo House, Juara R. Ginting
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
The Karo people in North Sumatra (Indonesia) consider areas in the Karo regency and those in other regencies as part of Taneh Karo (the Karolands), despite the fact that these areas comprise different administrative territories. This paper focuses on how the idea of Taneh Karo is articulated in a special Karo myth. Scholarly research has discovered that the notion of Taneh Karo originated in pre-colonial times, but an analysis of a local myth which established the concept of Taneh Karo remains an interesting anthropological study. This study is significant as it endeavours to comprehend the traditional ways of life of …
That Mighty "Pantun" River And Its Tributaries, Ding Choo Ming
That Mighty "Pantun" River And Its Tributaries, Ding Choo Ming
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
Known as pantun to the Malays in Brunei, Malaysia, Pattani, Riau, Singapore, and Southern Phillipines, it is called peparikan to the Javanese, sesindiran to the Sundanese and many other different names in different ethnic groups in the different parts of the Indo-Malay world, which is made up of Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Pattani in southern Thailand, and Mindanao in the southern Philippines. In almost every settlement that sprang up along the major rivers and tributaries in the Indo-Malay world, the pantun blend well with their natural and cultural surroundings. In this article, the geographical extent of the pantun family in …
The Effect Of Oral Performances In Audiences' Minds And Behaviour, Santosa Santosa
The Effect Of Oral Performances In Audiences' Minds And Behaviour, Santosa Santosa
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
As a means of communicating thoughts, gamelan performances affect the way audiences construct their worldview. More than that, listeners in villages believe that performances can affect people's behaviour. Performances may be deeply influential in the creation of fundamental social values such as in-group integrity, feelings of unity and peace in the community. All this demonstrates that in villages, arts are not autonomous entities; people value the arts as an integral domain with other social activities.
Mamanda Theatre, The Play Of Banjar Culture, Ninuk Kleden-Probonegoro
Mamanda Theatre, The Play Of Banjar Culture, Ninuk Kleden-Probonegoro
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
This article reveals the dialectic relationship between Teater Mamanda and the living conditions of Banjarese community. When we watch Mamanda, we watch the life and culture of the Banjarese. Without any knowledge of Banjarese society and culture we cannot possibly understand the content of a Mamanda performance as a miniature version of Banjarese society and culture. Three areas where Mamanda is performed have been studied using Paul Ricoeur's textual theory. There are two kinds of texts, the Mamanda performance (considered as text, that is, social events fixated in the form of a performance), and the narration of the performance itself …

Oral Traditions In Malaysia; A Discussion Of Shamanism, Haron Daud
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
The article discusses Malay oral traditions and emphasizes the shamanistic aspects of these traditions. Shamans often recite mantras in the execution of their role in society.

Each aspect is discussed in combination with the mantra the shaman utters.

The Politeness Prosody Of The Javanese Directive Speech, F. X. Rahyono
The Politeness Prosody Of The Javanese Directive Speech, F. X. Rahyono
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
This experimental phonetic research deals with the prosodies of directive speech in Javanese. The research procedures were: (1) speech production, (2) acoustic analysis, and (3) perception test. The data investigated are three directive utterances, in the form of statements, commands, and questions. The data were obtained by recording dialogues that present polite as well as impolite speech. Three acoustic experiments were conducted for statements, commands, and questions in directive speech: (1) modifications of duration, (2) modifications of contour, and (3) modifications of fundamental frequency. The result of the subsequent perception tests to 90 stimuli with 24 subjects were analysed statistically …
Potensialitas Dan Keterbatasan Inovasi Morfologis Dalam Bahasa Indonesia; Contoh Kombinasi Afiks "Keter-/-An", Jérôme Samuel
Potensialitas Dan Keterbatasan Inovasi Morfologis Dalam Bahasa Indonesia; Contoh Kombinasi Afiks "Keter-/-An", Jérôme Samuel
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
This paper examines with a particular affixe (keter-/-an) consisting in two primary affixes. Through the analyse of terms coined by the Pusat Bahasa and spontaneous terms, the paper distinguishes between "double" and "complex" affixation, corresponding to different operating modes of affixation. The first deals with an already affixed and lexicalized word, then reaffixed and relexicalized. The second, almost only found in documents produced by the Pusat Bahasa, refers to a base getting a first affix in a poorly (or not) lexicalized form, constituting no more than a morphological stage towards the wished form, which is intent as lexicalized. Complex affix …
Are Indonesians Sensitive To Contrastive Accentuation Below The Word Level?, Vincent J. Van Heuven
Are Indonesians Sensitive To Contrastive Accentuation Below The Word Level?, Vincent J. Van Heuven
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
It is impossible in Indonesian to express narrow-focus meta-linguistic contrasts on subparts of words (whether meaningless syllables or meaningful morphemes). In English and Dutch this possibility exists, as in I meant coffin not coffer or I said meaningful not meaningless. We predict from this circumstance that Indonesian learners of Dutch will not be sensitive to this type of prosodic contrast marking at the sub-word level. Native Dutch speakers should be able to make functional use of this type of contrast. We conducted an experiment with thirteen Indonesian learners of Dutch with lengths of residence in the Netherlands between 3 weeks …
Dutch Word Stress As Pronounced By Indonesian Students, Lilie M. Roosman
Dutch Word Stress As Pronounced By Indonesian Students, Lilie M. Roosman
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
This study focuses on the way in which the Dutch monophthongal vowels are pronounced by Indonesian students. To investigate whether Indonesian students realize the Dutch vowels correctly, especially when they are stressed, I analysed duration and quality of stressed and unstressed Dutch vowels. Measurements were done on the duration and the formant frequencies of the vowels spoken by Indonesian students and by native speakers of Dutch as well. Statistical analysis showed that in general the differences in duration between vowels spoken by the Indonesian students and by the native speakers were not significant. However, the effect of stress on the …

Prominence In Indonesian Stress, Phrases, And Boundaries, Ellen Van Zanten, Rob Goedemans
Prominence In Indonesian Stress, Phrases, And Boundaries, Ellen Van Zanten, Rob Goedemans
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
Many (Western) languages have word-based stress, which entails that one, predictable syllable per word is more prominent than all the other syllables in that word. Some linguists claim that such stresses also occur in Indonesian. In this article, we set out to investigate that claim using experimental, phonetic methods. The results confirm our hypothesis that Indonesian lacks word-based stress. Yet, we do observe some kind of prominence pattern. In the last part of this article, we search for the phonological phenomenon that generates this pattern, exploring the level of the phrase to see whether phrasal accents or boundary markers are …
Developing An Orthography For Onya Darat (Western Borneo); Practical And Theoretical Considerations, Uri Tadmor
Developing An Orthography For Onya Darat (Western Borneo); Practical And Theoretical Considerations, Uri Tadmor
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
Onya Darat is a language spoken, with great dialectal variation, in the interior of western Borneo. It is the southernmost member of Land Dayak, a branch of the Austronesian language family. This article reports on the development of a writing system for Onya Darat. In addition to five vowels and 19 simple consonants, Onya Darat also exhibits three series of complex oral-nasal segments: prenasalized oral stops, preoralized nasals, and postoralized nasals. An analysis of the Onya Darat sound system reveals that of these three series only postoralized nasals are distinctive and therefore need to be represented in the writing system. …
Vygotsky's Socio-Cultural Theory Of Literacy; Scaffolding Children To Read And Write At An Early Age, Mahzan Arshad, Wu Hsueh Chen
Vygotsky's Socio-Cultural Theory Of Literacy; Scaffolding Children To Read And Write At An Early Age, Mahzan Arshad, Wu Hsueh Chen
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
In the article the concept of semiotic mediation, appropriation, internalization, Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) and scaffolding in particular were reviewed to provide understanding of the process. Under the concept of semiotic mediation, the issue of how children learn through imitating adults was examined with inputs from second language acquisition theories. Vygotsky's concept of appropriation provides the springboard for a discussion on how children may appropriate the psychological tool of language through modeling and text meditation in the context of second language learning. It is hoped that the understanding of these concepts could lead to more insights in order to …

Urban Dynamics; An Impression Of Surabaya's Sociolinguistic Setting, Tom G. Hoogervorst
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
This paper examines the sociolinguistic situation in the city of Surabaya, by presenting an impression of various phenomena unique to Indonesia's second largest city. A surprisingly little amount of linguistic research has heretofore been carried out on this subject, whereas it transpires from this study that enough intriguing and unique things can be found in this Southeast Asian metropolis, both among its Javanese majority as well as its Madurese and Chinese inhabitants. Due to the lack of earlier relevant publications, this research is largely based on the results of several fieldwork trips, which included the pleasant activities of watching television, …

Warisan Dunia Situs Sangiran; Persepsi Menurut Penduduk Sangiran, Bambang Sulistyanto
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
Cultural heritages are things from the past, which are valued by communities in recent time as part of their nation's culture. In reality, among the community members there are problems that arise as a result of diverse perceptions, due to the fact that each perception is based on own interests as is the case with the Site of Sangiran. On the one hand, the Government, as part of the present community, has an idealistic orientation towards the Site of Sangiran as a cultural heritage which unquestionably needs to be protected for the purpose of scientific knowledge and national identity. The …
Osing Kids And The Banners Of Blambangan; Ethnolinguistic Identity And The Regional Past As Ambient Themes In An East Javanese Town, Bernard Arps
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
On the basis of the theoretical notions of discursive ambience and ambient discourse, this article examines the recent history of language and ethnicity in Banyuwangi in the far east of Java. Over the last three decades (with roots going back to the 1920s and earlier) a redefinition of the language and culture of the "autochthonous" inhabitants of Banyuwangi has been occurring. Their status and constitution have been changing from a variety of Javanese into an autonomous language and ethnicity, called, after the name given to the language or dialect, Osing. At the same time, an idyllic and heroic picture of …

'Race' And Inequality In Postcolonial Urban Settings; Examples From Peru, Jamaica, And Indonesia, Peter J.M. Nas, Rivke Jaffe, Line Algoed
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
In this essay we present three case studies of Peru, Jamaica and Indonesia to illustrate the use of the concept of race in daily life in relation to labour, popular culture and beauty respectively. These cases demonstrate how the use of the concept of race changes in the transition from a colonial into a postcolonial setting, depending on the role of the state and nation building. In Peru, we see a clear continuation of racialized thinking; thinking and speaking in terms of 'race' is still the norm. In Jamaica we find a process of inversion: the concept of race is …
Keterpenjaraan Perempuan Dalam Ruang Kota Di Dalam "Lost In Translation" (2003) Dan "The Good Girl" (2002), Asri Saraswati
Keterpenjaraan Perempuan Dalam Ruang Kota Di Dalam "Lost In Translation" (2003) Dan "The Good Girl" (2002), Asri Saraswati
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
The urban space offers more challenges to the female self. Two motion pictures, Lost in translation (2003) and The good girl (2002), depict the issue of gender and space by conveying the city as prison for the female characters. This article analyses the urban space and argues that in the two movies, the female characters struggle and eventually create meaning in the urban room. Applying feminism and urban geography in analysing the position of female characters within the city, the paper finds that the two films offer their perception on, and solutions to, the imprisonment of women by the urban …

Between Eroticism And Social Criticism; The Literariness Of Shahnon Ahmad's "Terdedah" (1965), Mohd Zariat Abdul Rani
Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia
In the history of modern Malay literature, the 1960s are labelled by many literary critics as era picisan (the age of dime fiction) because of the flood of karya picisan (dime fiction) in the local market. Karya picisan here refers to works that clearly manipulate sexual themes, with the intent of conjuring an atmosphere of eroticism to attract readers. Critics generally do not consider these works to be karya sastra (literary works) because they do not fulfil two important criteria that commonly classify the term 'literature', namely bahasa yang indah (aesthetic language) and isi yang berfaedah (beneficial content). In the …
