Download or read book Traces of the Ramayana and Mahabharata in Javanese and Malay Literature written by Ding Choo Ming and published by ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local renderings of the two Indian epics Ramayana and Mahabharata in Malay and Javanese literature have existed since around the ninth and tenth centuries. In the following centuries new versions were created alongside the old ones, and these opened up interesting new directions. They questioned the views of previous versions and laid different accents, in a continuous process of modernization and adaptation, successfully satisfying the curiosity of their audiences for more than a thousand years. Much of this history is still unclear. For a long time, scholarly research made little progress, due to its preoccupation with problems of origin. The present volume, going beyond identifying sources, analyses the socio-literary contexts and ideological foundations of seemingly similar contents and concepts in different periods; it examines the literary functions of borrowing and intertextual referencing, and calls upon the visual arts to illustrate the independent character of the epic tradition in Southeast Asia.

Download or read book Indonesian Idioms and Expressions written by Christopher Torchia and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2007-07-15 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indonesian Idioms and Expressions is a collection of Indonesian expressions, including proverbs, slang, quotations and acronyms, that offers a commentary on their origins, as well as insights into Indonesian culture, customs, and history. The book is an informal compendium designed to be both educational and easy to read. There are four parts in the book, and the chapters hit on various linguistic themes, among them wisdom, characters, animals, food, slang, family affairs, and politics. Entries include the expression in Bahasa Indonesia, a translation, an equivalent expression in English, and an explanation if necessary. The idea is to learn about Indonesian through the texture and content of its language, rather than the headlines—often bad ones—that tend to dominate perceptions of the vast country.

Download or read book Old Javanese English Dictionary written by Petrus Josephus Zoetmulder and published by Springer. This book was released on 1982 with total page 1260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dictionary is based on published texts and copies from unpublished manuscripts in Old and Middle Javanese. The vocabulary is arranged in Latin alphabetical order with the base-words as entries. Meaning and usage of the entries are illustrated by quotations from the whole range of the relevant literature. These are arranged in such a way that changes in usage or minor semantic developments can be traced. The reader can then see for himself how the interpretation given, often based on the context, was reached, and whether he agrees with it. In the case of rare words, or where a question mark indicates that there is a doubt about the correctness of the interpretation, many or even all the places where these words occur are given. In other cases what may seem a profusion of examples is provided because of the insight they give into the life and culture of early Java.
