Karawitan
The twentieth century has spawned a great interest in Indonesian music, and now books, articles, and manuscripts can be found that expound exclusively about karawitan (the combined vocal and instrumental music of the gamelan). Scholar Judith Becker has culled several key sources on karawitan into three volumes and has translated them for the benefit of the Western student of the gamelan tradition. The texts in her collection were written over a forty-five-year time period (ca 1930–1975) and include articles by Martopangrawit, Sumarsam, Sastrapustaka, Gitosaprodjo, Sindoesawarno, Poerbapangrawit, Probohardjono, Warsadiningrat, Purbodiningrat, Poerbatjaraka, and Paku Buwana X. The final volume also contains a glossary of technical terms, an appendix of the Javanese cipher notations (titilaras kepatihan), a biographical listing, and an index to the musical pieces (Gendhing).

A Literary Mirror
A Literary mirror is the first English-language work to comprehensively analyse Indonesian-language literature from Bali from a literary and cultural viewpoint. It covers the period from 1920 to 2000. This is an extremely rich field for research into the ways Balinese view their culture and how they respond to external cultural forces. This work complements the large number of existing studies of Bali and its history, anthropology, traditional literature, and the performing arts. A Literary Mirror is an invaluable resource for those researching twentieth-century Balinese authors who wrote in Indonesian. Until now, such writers have received very little attention in the existing literature. An appendix gives short biographical details of many significant writers and lists their work.
Storytelling in Bali
In Storytelling in Bali, Hildred Geertz makes a case for the importance of the role of informal storytelling as an engine of social change in Bali in the 1930s. This is a study of more than 200 texts dictated by the painters of the village of Batuan in 1936 to the anthropologist Gregory Bateson. It is completed by three years field work in Batuan in the 1980s. The tales reveal a set of strong ambivalences about the magical powers of kings, priests and sorcerers, and about social strains within villages and families. These narratives were related in the daily settings of home and coffee shop and also in the spectacular dance-dramas of the time.
Sejarah Perlawanan Terhadap Imperialisme dan Kolonialisme di Daerah Bali
Buku ini membahas tentang kesejarahan perihal sejarah perlawanan terhadap imperialisme dan kolonialisme di berbagai wilayah di negara kita. Perlawanan-perlawanan pada masa kerajaan-kerajaan di Bali menentang kolonialisme Belanda di dalam masyarakat di Bali memang lebih dikenal dengan istilah perang, di samping itu kita dapatkan juga istilah-istilah lain di dalam Babad, seperti uwug, rusak, rereg. Sebagai contoh: Uwug: Gaguritan uwug Payangan; rusak: Gaguritan rusak Buleleng; rereg: Rereg Gianyar. Ketiga istilah tersebut di samping mengandung arti perang, tetapi lebih menekankan pada pengertian kehancuran atau kekalahan (perang) dari suatu kerajaan. Kata perang itu sendiri di dalam bahasa Bali memang berarti perlawanan antara kerajaan atau negara yang satu dengan kerajaan atau negara lainnya.
