  • The Ramayana Epic and Traditional Indonesian Music
    The Ramayana Epic and Traditional Indonesian Music By Dr. Sri Hastanto Traditional Indonesian music consists of a vast repertoire of musical expression. This is because there are hundreds of different ethnic groups in Indonesia, each group having its own individual culture. Within each sub-culture flourish many kinds of music. Some of these sub-cultures have as many as ten musical types. So you can imagine just how many and different kinds of music there are in Indonesia. Some musical types are similar in nature, while others are distinct, but all are part of the family of traditional Indonesian music. Traditional Indonesian music has been influenced by diverse factors such as natural surroundings, religion, faith, politics, or social legend, for example. Social legend has often influenced musical composition, as musical performances accompany the performance of these social legends. In Indonesia each sub-culture has its own social legend. The Pasundan sub- culture in west Java, for example, has a legend called Sangkuriang. In Bali there is the Calonarng. Some legends exist in more than one sub-cultural area, such as the legends of the Panji,1 the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. In this paper I will discuss the involvement of legend, specifically the Ramayana, in the life of Indonesian traditional music. THE RAMAYANA EPIC The first type of Ramayana uses the KECAK IN BALI old Javanese language, the second THE RAMAYANA HAS BEEN uses a mixture of new Javanese and KECAK IS A GENRE OF known in Indonesia since the middle Javanese language,2 as does performing arts which presents a beginning of the eighth century.

  • Sangkuriang Dalam Budaya Masyarakat Sunda (Satu Kajian
    Volume 1 ,Nomor 1, Juli 2021 Sangkuriang dalam Budaya Masyarakat Sunda (Satu Kajian Konseptual terhadap Komuniti Seni Ujungberung Rebels) Rizky Hafiz Chaniago 1, Raja Widya Novchi 2, Khusnul Hanafi 3 R. Arlizon 4 1Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, 2, 3Universitas Muhammadiyah Riau, 4Universitas Riau Email: [email protected] Abstract: The negative impact of popular culture due to the long influence of Americanization is certainly unavoidable, but creating a counter culture may ignore popular culture. Art works with the virtue of local wisdom are able to give positive meaning to human life, typically to the development of young generation. Popular art with traditional cultural arts is actually able to be in the position of "mutualism symbiosis" where traditional cultural arts can enter the realm of popular art without having to leave creativity, original identity and still maintain idealism, so that both can run in harmony. Ujungberung Rebels art community is an art community that triumphed in preserving Sundanese traditional arts and culture based on Sundanese philosophy and customs of West Java, namely the legend of 'Sangkuriang'. The wisdom concept, theological concept and humanity concept in the legendary story 'Sangkuriang' become a life guide for the Ujungberung Rebels art community, especially for young people who are in the process of searching for identity. Now, Ujungberung Rebels community triggers its own culture, namely 'Panceg Dina Galur' (firm in its founding) that is an excerpt from the Sundanese ancient text 'Amanat Galunggung'. Therefore, this study aims to prove that popular art will not discredit traditional art as long as the pattern of production of cultural arts is focused on what is beneficial to society.

    International Journal of English and Education 300 ISSN: 2278-4012, Volume:3, Issue:3, July 2014 Comparison of Structural Reduction in Indonesian Legend and Myth Leny Saili Rahmah 1 Sutiono Mahdi 2, English Linguistic, Faculty of Humanities, Universitas Padjadjaran, Bandung, Indonesia Abstract: This article tries to analysis the structural reduction in Indonesian narrative texts. To collect and analyze data used qualitative method. The research focuses on two main points: (1) What kinds of function can be found in narrative text? (2) What are differences structural reduction inter narrative text? . To answered those questions writer used Propp’s list function. This research employs Semiotics: The Basics. The results of this research are: (1) No villain in one of the Indonesian legend but there is villain in myth story. Both of stories get reduction from seven roles Propp’s list, The stories which come from Indonesia the hero and villain are still in a family or have relationship each other. (2) There are fourteen function in the legend of Sangkuriang and thirteen functions in the myth of Nyi Roro Kidul so this story gets reduction from thirty one list of Propp’s list functions. Key Word: structural reduction, functions, legend, myth Introduction In order to have good capability in teaching reading comprehension, we need to know the basic knowledge of English text, what kinds of genre in English text and what the structural of the text is. Semiotic is probably best known as an approach to textual analysis, and in this form it is characterized by a concern with structural analysis. The structure of any text or cultural practice has both syntagmatic and paradigmatic axes.

  • Conclusion: 'Placing Culture'
    CONcLUSION: ‘PLAcING CULTURE’ This book has explored the way Indonesian films have engaged with issues of traditional cultures in diverse regions, the forms these regional societ- ies take, and particularly the cultural phenomena to which they give rise. It has also explored the issue of broad cultural dominants in Indonesian society, in particular group orientation and group body language, which are also addressed by Heider in his book Indonesian Cinema: National Culture on Screen, though in quite different ways. At the same time, this study has eschewed attempting to define a national culture or a national identity, on the ground that most of the cultural dominants with which it has engaged, and especially body language, are pre-national in origin, and not only pertain to local communities in which the individual is raised, but are part of the habitus of an individual. Nevertheless, the arguments and analyses presented in this book are grounds for thinking further about the differences between individualistic Western societies and group-oriented societies, certainly beyond bland and non-specific generalizations, because the phenomena explored are fundamental to the constitution and forms of interaction of an individual, ultimately producing a quite different kind of human experience. This is something demonstrated by the films them- selves. At the same time, in Chap. 7 I have provocatively raised questions about alternative positioning(s) of women in some Indonesian films. One of the examples investigated—the West Javanese legend of ‘incest avoided’ with the help of the mother, a story found also in various forms elsewhere in Indonesia, and retold in the popular filmSangkuriang —provides an alternative myth to the Oedipus story, used widely in the West as a singular © The Author(s) 2017 297 D.

  • Theological Symbolisation of Watugunung Myth and Sangkuriang Legend (Comparative Literature Study)
    Vol. 2 No. 2 October 2018 Theological Symbolisation Of Watugunung Myth And Sangkuriang Legend (Comparative Literature Study) By: Ni Made Ayu Susanthi Pradnya Paramitha Institut Hindu Dharma Negeri Denpasar E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 6, 2018 Accepted: September 22, 2018 Published: October 31, 2018 Abstract Science that has developed to this day seems to shift the role of the logic of Theo- logos, namely science that is still supported by divine values or religion. Before humans recognize the logic of science as a tool to understand truth, humans initially seek truth by using mythical logic so that myth is called pre-logic. Between myth and science or logos has the same role, which is to be an answer to chaos in understanding a natural phenomenon. One of the pre-logical phenomena is found in literary works of various myths or legends. Some of them are the myth of Watugunung and the legend of Sangkuriang. Both works are urgently studied in the comparative literature study paradigm, because they contain the same substance, namely the incest and symbolism of the siwaistic understanding of the archipelago. The focus of the issue that will be discussed in this study is how is sexual relations in the Watugunung Myth and Sangkuriang Legend as theological symbolization? This problem was assessed using structural and semiotics theory while, the research method used a qualitative paradigm with the type of data in the form of narration or discourse in the medium of language. The primary data source is the text of the Medang Kemulan Manuscript and the printed text of the Sangkuriang Manuscript.

Investigating both performances staged in conventional theatres and those staged in the streets, the thesis looks at the ways these performances have told the story of Indonesia's post-New Order or `reformasi' era. The thesis contends that performance - which is essentially temporal and necessitates multiple interpretations - is an ideal site for the investigation of reformasi, which has similarly tenuous, contested, evolving and unstable meanings. Performances of the post -New Order is an inter - disciplinary project. It comprises four inter-related but separate chapters, each of which is informed by its own theoretical approach, and engages with a different aspect of reformasi.

  • Traditional Weapon Kujang Masterpiece of Indonesia
    TRADITIONAL WEAPON KUJANG MASTERPIECE OF INDONESIA By : Endang Naryono Lecturer of the Pasim College of Economics [email protected] ABSTRACTION West Java in ancient times called Pasundan was a large area for Sunda known as the Pajajaran Kingdom led by Prabu Dewataprana Sri Baduga Maharaja or Jayadewata who was better known to the wider community by the name Prabu Siliwangi. At that time the Sunda Hindu Kingdom was in crisis because of the influence of Islam brought by Indian Gujarat merchants. So that Prabu Siliwangi made an ancient literary text as a way of life for the Sundanese people. Reporting from Wikipedia, Prabu Siliwangi made a life guide book called Sanghyang Siksa Kandang Karesian in 1518 as a provision for community life in Pajajaran. The book contains various kinds of norms, morals, culture, customs, to the typical arts of Pajajaran. One of the traditional weapons listed in the ancient text is the cleaver. Keywords: Kujang, Pajajaran, Prabu Siliwangi A. INTRODUCTION Kujang has a very long historical background with the process of its creation which has been widely studied in previous research. Based on the evidence that has been found, many of the cleavers were created during the Pajajaran kingdom. There is even a mention that the cleaver existed during the Tarumanegara kingdom. Although the name of the cleaver was never written in the inscription, there is a lot of evidence that supports its existence, such as the Batu Kujang megalithic site in the Sukabumi area, the discovery of kudi in the Batujaya Karawang temple complex, the reliefs of the Sukuh temple in Surakarta, the notes of Stamford Raffles in the book "History of Java".
