The Archaeology of the Aru Islands, Eastern Indonesia
This volume describes the results of the first archaeological survey and excavations carried out in the fascinating and remote Aru Islands, Eastern Indonesia between 1995 and 1997. The naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace, who stopped here in search of the Birds of Paradise on his voyage through the Indo-Malay Archipelago in the 1850s, was the first to draw attention to the group. The results reveal a complex and fascinating history covering the last 30,000 years from its early settlement by hunter-gatherers, the late Holocene arrival of ceramic producing agriculturalists, later associations with the Bird of Paradise trade and the colonial expansion of the Dutch trading empires. The excavations ...
Fruits of Inspiration
A rich collection of lengthy and thorough articles about such a broad field as the history, art and archeology of South and Southeast Asia, this volume is a worthy tribute to a great scholar. Professor J. G. de Casparis has lectured and published widely both at the School of African and Oriental Studies in London and at the Departments of South and Southeast Asian Studies in Leiden. Inspired by his lifelong devotion to this field, his former colleagues and students, now spread over many countries in Asia and the West, present the selected fruits of their research as a token of friendship and admiration. Epigraphy is the main theme in most of the thirty articles contained in this volume, but ...
New Perspectives in Southeast Asian and Pacific Prehistory
‘This volume brings together a diversity of international scholars, unified in the theme of expanding scientific knowledge about humanity’s past in the Asia-Pacific region. The contents in total encompass a deep time range, concerning the origins and dispersals of anatomically modern humans, the lifestyles of Pleistocene and early Holocene Palaeolithic hunter-gatherers, the emergence of Neolithic farming communities, and the development of Iron Age societies. These core enduring issues continue to be explored throughout the vast region covered here, accordingly with a richness of results as shown by the authors. Befitting of the grand scope of this volume, the individual contributions articulate perspectives from multiple study areas and lines of evidence. Many of the chapters showcase new primary field data from archaeological sites in Southeast Asia. Equally important, other chapters provide updated regional summaries of research in archaeology, linguistics, and human biology from East Asia through to the Western Pacific.’ Mike T.

Spirits and Ships
This volume seeks to foreground a borderless history and geography of South, Southeast, and East Asian littoral zones that would be maritime-focused, and thereby explore the ancient connections and dynamics of interaction that favoured the encounters among the cultures found throughout the region stretching from the Indian Ocean littorals to the Western Pacific, from the early historical period to the present. Transcending the artificial boundaries of macro-regions and nation-states, and trying to bridge the arbitrary divide between (inherently cosmopolitan) high cultures (e.g. Sanskritic, Sinitic, or Islamicate) and local or indigenous cultures, this multidisciplinary volume explores the me...
INTERSEKSI GENDER
Buku Interseksi Gender: Perspektif Multidimesional Terhadap Diri, Tubuh, dan Seksualitas dalam Kajian Sastra Perspektif dalam kajian gendertidaklah bersifat tunggal. Ada dinamika yang terus bergerak secara teoritis dalam merespon perkembangan teori-teori feminisme yang mengalami kemajuan pesat sejak tahun 1970-an. Memandang bahwa perempuan secara universal memiliki nasib yang homogen, seperti yang dijelaskan oleh Gerakan Feminisme Gelombang Kedua dianggap oleh para feminis, yang kebanyakan bukan feminis kulit putih, terlalu mengeneralisasi persoalan perempuan (Mohanty, 1984; Crenshaw, 1992; Collins, 1989). Ketiganya sepakat bahwa perempuan memiliki nasib yang tidak sama dalam batas-batas sejarah, sosial, politik maupun geografis. Perspektif gender dengan fokus pada intersectionality menjadi cara untuk mengkonseptulisasikan hubungan antara sistem-sistem opresi yang membangun identitas kita yang bersifat multipel dan juga lokasi sosial kita yang berada di dalam hierarki kekuasaan. Idenfitas gender tidak muncul begitu saja tetapi berada di dalam sebuah sistem kekuasaan yang di dalamnya ada legitimasi dan privilese dari kelompok-kelompok yang menjadi kultur dominan.
