Traces of the Ramayana and Mahabharata in Javanese and Malay Literature
Local renderings of the two Indian epics Ramayana and Mahabharata in Malay and Javanese literature have existed since around the ninth and tenth centuries. In the following centuries new versions were created alongside the old ones, and these opened up interesting new directions. They questioned the views of previous versions and laid different accents, in a continuous process of modernization and adaptation, successfully satisfying the curiosity of their audiences for more than a thousand years. Much of this history is still unclear. For a long time, scholarly research made little progress, due to its preoccupation with problems of origin. The present volume, going beyond identifying sources, analyses the socio-literary contexts and ideological foundations of seemingly similar contents and concepts in different periods; it examines the literary functions of borrowing and intertextual referencing, and calls upon the visual arts to illustrate the independent character of the epic tradition in Southeast Asia.
Arabic Literary Culture in Southeast Asia in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries
This groundbreaking work studies the Arabic literary culture of early modern Southeast Asia on the basis of largely unstudied and unknown manuscripts.

It brings to light a large number of hitherto unknown texts produced at or for the courts of Southeast Asia, and examines the role of royal patronage in supporting Arabic literary production in Southeast Asia.

Aksara, Naskah, dan Budaya Nusantara
Verba Volant scripta manent ("perkataan menguap, tulisan abadi"). Ungkapan yang dikemukakan oleh Caius Titus, seorang penyair dan senator Romawi pada awal abad Masehi ini, menekankan pentingnya dokumen tertulis.
