IX KEITH TAYLOR comes from Cadilac, Michigan. He studied as an undergraduate at Hope College and was graduated from George Washington University. After serving with the United States Army in Vietnam, he began a Ph.D. program at the University of Michigan in 1972. His dissertation is entitled TTThe Birth of Vietnam: Sino-Vietnamese Relations to the 10th Century and the Origins of Vietnamese Nationhood.TT Taylor has reviewed several books on Vietnamese history for the Journal of Asian Studies. JOHN K. WHITMORE completed a B.A. at Wesleyan University and received an M. A. and a Ph.D. in Southeast Asian History from Cornell University. He is Assistant Professor of Early Southeast Asian History at the University of Michigan and a specialist in the history of Vietnam. His book, The Transformation of Vietnam: Politics and Confucianism in the 15th Century, is forthcoming. x Foreword While following the probes of foreign individuals into various obscure parts of Southeast Asia over the centuries is a diverting and entertaining pastime, the purpose of this volume is to investigate this past with the mind, to question and postulate upon the historical patterns that have developed from earlier study of the area, and to bring concepts from other areas and disciplines to bear on the existing information. The product of this effort, as it is encompassed in this volume, is not an attempt at the definitive study of any of the topics. It is rather a series of speculations on the directions feasible for the further study of the Southeast Asian past. As such, the answers proposed in these essays are really questions. Are the ideas presented here true within the specific historical contexts for which they have been developed? If so, can we use these ideas, or variations of them, to interpret the history of other parts of Southeast Asia? If not, what other ideas may be brought to bear on these situations in order to understand them? The ultimate aim of this volume is thus a challenge to the profession at large not only to criticize what we have done, but also to go beyond our postulations and create new ones. The studies included here have not been based on the primary source materials in their original forms, with one exception (Aung Thwin). The authors have utilized a variety of available materials, generally in translation (in both European and modern Southeast Asian languages), and have applied certain concepts derived from a number of different directions to put forward their proposals. Both Taylor and Hall, in the second and third essays, operate by careful analogy from 19th and 20th century ethnological data in order to provide a cultural framework of understanding for the earlier material. As Hall shows, epigraphic and ethnological detail can be fitted together to construct a viable model for the indigenous political structure of the times. In the second essay, Taylor also brings to bear linguistic theories in the attempt to gauge patterns of change and continuity. In both this essay and the fifth one, he makes a fundamental use of mythological material to gain a generic sense of local development and to see how this sense presents insights into the historical events. This resurrection of what might be called the folklorist approach of French scholars in the first decades of this century, when combined with other source material, proves itself to be a most fruitful form of inquiry. In the same way, Aeusrivongse has utilized theories of religion developed by earlier Dutch archeologists and art historians for the distant past of Java and Bali in his attempt to penetrate the mysteries of the Devaraja cult and thereby explore the indigenous belief system which formed its core. Aung Thwin, on the other hand, draws on the more modern anthropological theories of Polanyi and Sahlins, Leach and Spiro to propose a dynamic structure for the state of Pagan which involves economic, social, religious, and political patterns. His basic questions, which must now be applied to the other classical states, are: what occurred socially and economically, with the formation of an empire? was it more of the same? or did a totally new structure emerge? Taylor, in the seventh essay, brings a Southeast Asiann historical frame of analysis to bear on Ceylon and additionally uses a genealogical approach to understand its political events. The other pieces, my own TTNoten and the essay by Hall and myself, attempt to fill in areas of historical investigation that have heretofore been generally ignored, while Hall's introductory Essay" both sets the stage for the following explorations and integrates the latterTs finding into a general discussion of the classical Southeast Asian state and its form. Behind these postulations is the solid use of more traditional textual and historical approaches. Aung Thwin and Taylor (essay no. 5) are doing work in their own areas of doctoral research, utilizing inscriptional and chronicle materials respectively. The other essays by Hall, Aeusrivongse, and Taylor are based on English and French translations of a wide range of local Southeast Asian materials combined with sources from the Mediterranean, the Middle East, India, and China.

  • The WILLIAMSBURG Brand Takes a “Trend-Meets-Tradition” Approach
    The WILLIAMSBURG brand takes a “Trend-Meets-Tradition” approach to home décor inspired by the extensive design archive of the not-for-profit Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. Fusing the best of American craftsmanship with international influences that accented homes of the era, WILLIAMSBURG offers a fresh take on 18th-century design, reimagining classic elements for today’s lifestyles. GARDEN IMAGES Highlighted by a magnificent watercolor painted by Georg Ehret in 1737, this botanical design captures the natural ambience of gardens in Colonial Williamsburg’s Historic Area. The large magnolia blossoms, flowering dogwood, and occasional butterfly are shown in multiple colors on a lightly textured field which mimics fine linen or, in one instance, cloth of gold. Six variations include cream ground with green, blue, and beige, brown ground with deep pinks and blue-greens, a charcoal ground with purples and ochres. There is also a distinctive metallic gold ground enhanced by plum accents. Dickinson Trellis or Amelia Stripe would make a handsome partner. TAUNTON TEXTURE During the 18th- century, Taunton, England, was a center for the manufacture of woolen broadcloth. This wall paper, named for that city, bears a similarity. The textured background looks like woven cloth, while vertical and horizontal faux slubs mimic the appearance and feel of earlier fabrics made from nubby hand-spun yarns. This pattern, in five palettes including beige with taupe and white, or light and medium grey with cream, offers a subtle complement to many other designs in the WILLIAMSBURG collection. For example, use with Dinwiddie Damask or with John Rocque’s London Map, circa 1740s, Mural.

  • The Mandala Culture of Anarchy: the Pre-Colonial Southeast Asian International Society
    The Mandala Culture of Anarchy: The Pre-Colonial Southeast Asian International Society Pandu Utama Manggala Australian National University, Australia Abstract Throughout the years, study on pre-colonial Southeast Asian international relations has not garnered major attention because it had long been seen as an integral part of the China- centred tribute system. There is a need to provide greater understanding of the uniqueness of the international system as different regions have different ontologies to comprehend its dynamics and structures. This paper contributes to the pre-colonial Southeast Asian literature by examining the interplay that had existed between pre-colonial Southeast Asian empires and the hierarchical East Asian international society, in particular during the 13th- 16th Century. The paper argues that Southeast Asian international relations in pre-colonial time were characterized by complex political structures with the influence of Mandala values. In that structural context, the Majapahit Empire, one of the biggest empires at that time had its own constitutional structures of an international society, albeit still sought close relations with China.

Miceli** Abstract: Throughout history, religious and political authorities have had a mysterious attraction to each other. Rulers have established state religions and adopted laws with religious origins, sometimes even claiming to have divine powers. We propose a political economy approach to theocracy, centered on the legitimizing relationship between religious and political authorities. Making standard assumptions about the motivations of these authorities, we identify the factors favoring the emergence of theocracy, such as the organization of the religion market, monotheism vs. polytheism, and strength of the ruler. We use two sets of data to test the implications of the model. We first use a unique data set that includes information on over three hundred polities that have been observed throughout history. We also use recently available cross-country data on the relationship between religious and political authorities to examine these issues in current societies. The results provide strong empirical support for our arguments about why in some states religious and political authorities have maintained independence, while in others they have integrated into a single entity.

  • Amalan Kultus Devaraja Di Asia Tenggara Pendahuluan
    M. Rajantheran - Amalan Kultus Devaraja Di Asia Tenggara AMALAN KULTUS DEVARAJA DI ASIA TENGGARA M.Rajantheran PENDAHULUAN Hubungan perdagangan antarabangsa India dengan Empayar Rom (Roman Empire)t dan Asia Tenggara terjalin sekurang-kurangnya sejak abad ke-3sm.2 Ini dapat dibuktikan dengan pelbagai bukti seperti bukti kesusasteraan India, karya- karya sejarah dan geografi Barat, catatan penggembara-penggembara Cina, rekod- rekod pedagang Arab dan pelbagai penemuan arkeologi di India dan Asia Tenggara.3 Penemuan pelbagai inskripsi di wilayah Asia Tenggara yang bertarikh abad ke-4 dan ke-5 masihi yang kebanyakannya ditulis dalam Bahasa Sanskrit,a menunjukkan bahawa hubungan perdagangan antarabangsa telah merintis jalan untuk beberapa unsurperadaban India tersebar di kalangan masyarakat di Asia Tenggara. Ini termasuklah kultus devaraja yang menjadi pokok persoalan dalam tulisan ini.s Tujuan utama artikel ini ialah untuk memberikan satu gambaran yang komprehensif tentang amalan kultus devaraja di kalangan pemerintah-pemerintah awal di wilayah Asia Tenggara. Namun demekian sebelum amalan kultus devaraja di Asia Tenggara dibincang ada baiknya jika kita meneliti secara ringkas akan erti perkataan devaraja dan konsep asas devaraja yang boleh dicari dari sumber- sumber India. PENGERTIAN ISTILAII DEVARAJA Istilah devaraja adalah terbentuk daripada dua patah perkataan iaitu ' dewa' dan 'raja'. oleh itu istilah tersebut dapat diertikan sebagai 'raja kepada dewa-dewa'. Dalam tradisi India Dewa Indra selalunya dikaitkan dengan gelarandevaraja.Dewa ini juga dikatakan sebagai pemerintah bagi bandar kedewaan Amaravati yang dipercayai terletak di puncak Gunung Mahameru.6 Jean Filliozat, salah seorang sarjana Peradaban India, menerangkan bahawa Dewa Indra dikenali sebagai devaraja,tetapi kultus devaraja tidak mungkin merujuk kepada Dewa Indra sebaliknya kultus tersebut lebih tepat dikaitkan dengan Dewa siva.

  • A Walk Through the Gallery 5
    A WALK THROUGH THE GALLERY MARGARET PLASS The new African Gallery has been designed to exhibit, simply and honestly, a selection of sculptures from our permanent collections. Proudly we present them as works of art; where possible they are arranged in tribal groups for convenience and comparative study. They are labeled briefly and clearly. Here are the materials from which our visitors may form a just view of the special characteristics and merits of Negro art. For more than half a century our Museum has been enriched by acces- sions of African sculpture, mainly by purchase and partly by gifts, to the end that our permanent collections are the largest and most varied in style in America. The following descriptive notes are not to be construed as an attempt at a catalogue of the exhibition; the serious student may have access to fully documented formal catalogues should he apply to the Museum staff. In Dr. Coon's introduction he has given us the anthropological and ethno- grapbical background of the people who produced this art, working within the framework of their tribal traditions. Here in this book, with their photographs, are small synopses of what we know of these sculptures, and what we guess. We all have conscious, and sometimes unconscious, difficulty in understanding such works of art; the philosophical barrier that lies in the way of full appreciation is almost too difficult to hurdle. Many writers have tried to explain the magico-religious significance, the strength and directness of African art; few have succeeded. Perhaps these notes are mere hints and suggestions, but we hope that they may sometimes be stimulating as well as factual.
