Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “... salah satu ‘lagu ulangan’ yang akan kembali berkumandang, khusus oleh kelompok nasionalis ialah; menjajakan keunggulan peradaban Melayu satu ketika dahulu. Di sebalik hujah yang dinyatakan tersebut, salah satu yang sering diabaikan oleh ‘sejarawan retrophiliac’ adalah faktor keadaan manusia Melayu murbawan itu sendiri. Sebagai misalan, soalan yang mungkin sering diabaikan adalah apakah kegemilangan dan kehebatan peradaban Melayu tersebut dapat dikecapi, dinikmati sama-rata atau sampai ke kaum bawahan, rakyat jelata dan manusia kecil?” Faisal Tehrani Kompilasi baru ini mengandungi sepilihan esei-esei provokatif dan polemik karya Faisal Tehrani. Antara tumpuannya termasuk agama, sastera, sejarah dan politik – empat bidang yang biasa menjadi ruang pemikiran konservatif dan reaksioner. Dalam buku ini, hal-hal semasa seperti kesupreman Melayu, pengharaman buku-buku, budaya keagamaan dan lain-lain dibincangkan dalam bentuk yang cukup berseni, berteraskan sumber sejarah dan analisis tajam.

Book excerpt: Panji's Quest is a love story set before the reign of King Kameswara of Kadiri (r. 1135-1185). It is a part of the only original Indonesian stories that have been widely disseminated for centuries and were later combined into the Panji Tales. On October 30, 2017, UNESCO included The Tale of Panji in their "Memory of The World" documentary series. In Panji's Quest Panji, crown prince of the kingdom of Janggala and Sekartaji, crown princess of the kingdom of Kadiri, have been engaged since they were youngsters. However, the wedding does not proceed as planned by their parents. One month before the wedding ceremony Panji falls in love with Angreni, the daughter of the prime minister of Janggala. Panji and Angreni marry. Panji decides he wants only one wife and refuses to marry Sekartaji. Panji's father becomes enraged when he hears that Panji has canceled his marriage with Sekartaji. As the king of Janggala, Panji's father had planned to reunite the kingdoms of Janggala and Kadiri through this marriage. Faced with the dilemma that Panji's refusal to marry Sekartaji might ignite a war between the two kingdoms, the Janggala king orders the murder of Angreni and sends Panji to visit his aunt. When Panji returns from his visit and finds that his wife has been kidnapped, he immediately starts to search for his wife. When Panji finds his wife's dead body on a remote beach buried under angsana flowers, his pain is so deep that he goes crazy. He puts his wife's body on a ship and, with his shipmates, heads out to sea. A storm hits their ship, stranding Panji and his shipmates on a beach at the far eastern end of the island of Java. With great difficulty, Panji's shipmates finally persuade him to bury his wife. To help Panji overcome his grief, they suggest to Panji to become a warrior. They advise him to disguise himself. Panji changes his name to Kelana Jayengsari and becomes a well-known warlord. Word of his fame reaches the ears of Sekartaji's father, the king of Kadiri who is under the threat of an imminent invasion by King Metaun's army. King Metaun was scorned because Sekartaji had rejected his proposal of marriage. When the invasion of Kadiri occurs, Kelana Jayengsari, with his comrades, not only repel the invaders but also kill King Metaun. As his reward, Kelana Jayengsari is given Sekartaji to marry. The news of Kelana Jayengsari and Sekartaji's betrothal infuriates the king and lords of Janggala. In their minds, Sekartaji was still engaged to their missing crown prince. Janggala decides to attack Kadiri. But when Janggala's army arrives at Kadiri's borders, Kelana Jayengsari meets the generals of Janggala. It becomes immediately clear that Kelana Jayengsari is Panji. The story ends with the wedding of Panji and Sekartaji. In 1185 CE Panji is crowned king of Kadiri. He rules over the united kingdoms of Kadiri and Janggala and becomes known as King Kameswara.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pum is a loyal old dog who can smell colors. Along with Kwee, a pig with attitude, and seven-year-old Leksi, they tell the story of Mabel. As a young girl of the Dani tribe in Papua, Dutch missionaries take her to the city under the pretense of adopting her. Mabel quickly adapts to being domestic help and is eager to learn, but her request to attend school is denied. When Mabel returns to village life years later, her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, Leksi, join her. The women work in the fields all day long, and Mabel sells the fruits and vegetables in the open market. Living in Papua is a battle between tradition and the new: for the Papuan people this means leaving the land and working in the gold mining operation on the Holy Mountain, home of the spirits of the Amungme people. The mining company takes the labor from many Papuans and only gives riches to very few. Mabel holds on to the traditional way of life, and dares to speak out against injustice during a fierce election.

Download or read book Kei written by Erni Aladjai and published by Dalang Pub. This book was released on 2014 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young Muslim woman and Protestant man find love during a religious conflict that threatens to consume the Pacific islands of Kei. At the end of Suharto's New Order, the Kei people hold on to their traditions as they flee the violence that divides Muslim from Christian and destroys the villages. Namira, a Muslim girl, works as a volunteer in a refugee camp when she meets Sala, a young Protestant man. Grounded in the islander's belief of "We drink from the same spring and eat from the same land, the land of Kei," the two fall in love amid the chaos that will soon separate them. Erni Aladjai earned her degree in French literature from the Hasannudin University in Sulawesi. She has worked as a journalist and news editor, and managed a learning institution. Her novel, Kei, took first place in the 2011 Jakarta Arts Council novel competition. Erni is also the author of Pesan Cinta dari Hujan (Messages of Love from the Rain, Insist Press, 2010) and Ning di Bawah Gerhana (Ning Under Eclipse, Bumen Pustaka Emas, 2013). Kei is a brave first novel exploring the troubled entanglement of two young lovers who find themselves on opposing sides in the sectarian violence that marked the dawning of the twenty-first century in the Moluccas. The Kei islands form the southern flank of the Spice Islands, the scattering of small islands whose cloves and nutmeg launched Christopher Columbus' ships, brought the Western world to its shores, and helped change the shape of history. Erni Aladjai invites the reader into a world marked by conflict and loss-heritage of the long era of colonial domination-but also, and importantly, writes of love, healing, and hope, rooted in the power of age-old local customs to make peace possible. -Sylvia Tiwon, Associate Professor, University of California at Berkeley Strong in local color and portraying the rich culture of the island communities, Kei is about the events that are an unspoken part of Indonesian history. Erni Aladjai shows the reader that the horrors of the past need to be remembered, so they will not be repeated in the future. -Melani Budianta, Professor of Literary and Cultural Studies, University of Indonesia Kei tells the story of two young islanders, Namira and Sala, who discover love in the midst of violence. Though of different faiths, they are united in the strong belief that the best way to express love is to be selfless and care about the needs of others. A sincere heart is the only cure for dangerous times. -Josephina Maria Mantik, Faculty of Humanities, University of Indonesia
