A History of Classical Malay Literature
This is a detailed, narrative–based history of Classical Malay Literature. It covers a wide range of Malay texts, including folk literature; the influence of the Indian epics and shadow theatre; Panji tales; the transition from Hindu to Muslim literary models; Muslim literature; framed tales; theological literature; historical literature; legal codes; and the dominant forms of poetry, the pantun and syair. The author describes the background to each of these particular literary periods. He engages in depth with specific texts, their various manuscripts, and their contents. In so doing, he draws attention to the historical complexity of tradisional Malay society, its worldviews, and its place within the wider framework of human experience. Dr. Liaw’s History of Classical Malay Literature will be of benefit to beginning students of Malay Literature and to established scholars alike. It can also be read with benefit by those with a wider interest in Comparative Literature and in Southeast Asian culture in general.
Poskolonial: Hibriditas
Poskolonialisme dan hibriditas adalah dua konsep penting dalam studi sastra dan budaya. Poskolonialisme berkaitan dengan hubungan antara kolonialisme dan pasca-kolonialisme, sedangkan hibriditas mengacu pada pencampuran dan penggabungan budaya yang terjadi sebagai hasil dari interaksi antara budaya yang berbeda. Dalam artikel ini, kita akan membahas kaitan antara poskolonialisme dan hibriditas. Poskolonialisme merupakan perspektif yang berkembang setelah masa kolonialisme, dan bertujuan untuk memahami dampak-dampak kolonialisme terhadap budaya dan masyarakat pasca-kolonial. Perspektif ini menganggap kolonialisme sebagai suatu bentuk kekuasaan yang merusak dan menghancurkan budaya lokal. Dala...
Politics of Citizenship in Indonesia
The core argument of this book is that citizenship is produced and practiced through movements against injustice. These take the shape of struggles—by people at the grass-roots level and middle classes and their representing organisations and activists—for cultural recognition, social and economic justice, and popular representation. Such popular struggles in Indonesia have largely ended up engaging with the state through both discursive and non-discursive processes. While the state is a common focal point, these struggles are fragmented across different sectors and subject positions. Developing chains of solidarity among fragments of struggles is highly important, yet attempts at bridgi...

Land, Livelihood, the Economy and the Environment in Indonesia
This volume of essays is intended to honour an exceptional, indeed a unique scholar. Joan Hardjono grew up in Sydney and graduated from Sydney University in the mid-1950s. She majored in English and Geography and like most girls in those years who had managed to complete a tertiary degree, she probably expected to embark on a career as a high school teacher in Australia. But no doubt prompted by the spirit of adventure which she has kept throughout her long career, she decided to go to Indonesia as a volunteer teacher. The scheme which brought young Australian graduates to Indonesia at that time was pioneering; it pre-dated the US Peace Corps and several of the participants went on to distin...
