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. Perkataan mudah dilupakan karena tidak ada buktinya, tetapi tulisan bersifat abadi karena ada yang mengabadikannya. Suatu peradaban akan mudah lenyap jika hanya dilisankan, tetapi akan bersifat abadi kalau dituliskan. Tulisan atau aksara memiliki kemampuan menyimpan/mengabadikan. Karena itu, peradaban besar dunia diketahui orang pada kelak kemudian hari salah satunya melalui aksara. Buku ini menyajikan berbagai tulisan yang membuktikan bahwa aksara daerah mampu mengabadikan pergulata...

Tahukah Anda bahwa Ilmu Pengetahuan Budaya merupakan istilah yang ditetapkan oleh Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan (dulu Departemen) sebagai rumpun ilmu di samping Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Sosial? Nama rumpun ilmu itu sekarang digunakan sebagai nama fakultas, menggantikan nama Fakultas Sastra yang sering disalahartikan sebagai kesusastraan, padahal dalam bahasa Sanskerta artinya kebudayaan. Mengapa ilmu pengetahuan? Karena banyak ilmu tergabung dalam rumpun itu. Pada hakikatnya, ilmu pengetahuan budaya menekuni hasil akal budi manusia dengan tujuan agar manusia menjadi lebih baik. Maka, para pakar ilmu pengetahuan budaya menggunakan berbagai hasil budi daya manusia seb...
Geographic mapping of dialects spoken in Lampung Province, Indonesia.
Indonesia has an extreme diversity of linguistic wealth, with 707 languages by one count, or 731 languages and more than 1,100 dialects in another estimate, spoken by more than 600 ethnicities spread across 17,504 islands in the archipelago. Smaller, locally used indigenous languages jostle for survival alongside Indonesian, which is the national language, regional lingua francas, major indigenous languages, heritage languages, sign languages and world languages such as English, Arabic and Mandarin, not to mention emerging linguistic varieties and practices of language mixing. How does the government manage these languages in different domains such as education, the media, the workplace and ...
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE SOCIOLOGY OF LANGUAGE brings to students, researchers and practitioners in all of the social and language-related sciences carefully selected book-length publications dealing with sociolinguistic theory, methods, findings and applications. It approaches the study of language in society in its broadest sense, as a truly international and interdisciplinary field in which various approaches, theoretical and empirical, supplement and complement each other. The series invites the attention of linguists, language teachers of all interests, sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists, historians etc. to the development of the sociology of language.
Eighteenth-century consumers of the Qing and Ottoman empires had access to an increasingly diverse array of goods, from home furnishings to fashionable clothes and new foodstuffs. While this tendency was of shorter duration and intensity in the Ottoman world, some urbanites of the sultans’ realm did enjoy silks, coffee, and Chinese porcelain. By contrast, a vibrant consumer culture flourished in Qing China, where many consumers flaunted their fur coats and indulged in gourmet dining. Living the Good Life explores how goods furthered the expansion of social networks, alliance-building between rulers and regional elites, and the expression of elite, urban, and gender identities. The scholarship in the present volume highlights the recently emerging “material turn” in Qing and Ottoman historiographies and provides a framework for future research.

Even a cursory look at conference programs and proceedings reveals a burgeoning interest in the field of social and affective factors in home language maintenance and development. To date, however, research on this topic has been published in piecemeal fashion, subsumed under the more general umbrella of ‘bilingualism’. Within bilingualism research, there has been an extensive exploration of linguistic and psycholinguistic perspectives on the one hand, and educational practices and outcomes on the other. In comparison, social and affective factors – which lead people to either maintain or shift the language – have been under-researched. This is the first volume that brings together t...

The endangered languages crisis is widely acknowledged among scholars who deal with languages and indigenous peoples as one of the most pressing problems facing humanity, posing moral, practical, and scientific issues of enormous proportions.
