Heirs to World Culture
Author: M.H.T. Sutedja-LIem
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004253513
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 547
Book Description
This volume brings together new scholarship by Indonesian and non-Indonesian scholars on Indonesia’s cultural history from 1950-1965. During the new nation’s first decade and a half, Indonesia’s links with the world and its sense of nationhood were vigorously negotiated on the cultural front. Indonesia used cultural networks of the time, including those of the Cold War, to announce itself on the world stage. International links, post-colonial aspirations and nationalistic fervour interacted to produce a thriving cultural and intellectual life at home. Essays discuss the exchange of artists, intellectuals, writing and ideas between Indonesia and various countries; the development of cultural networks; and ways these networks interacted with and influenced cultural expression and discourse in Indonesia. With contributions by Keith Foulcher, Liesbeth Dolk, Hairus Salim HS, Tony Day, Budiawan, Maya H.T. Liem, Jennifer Lindsay, Els Bogaerts, Melani Budianta, Choirotun Chisaan, I Nyoman Darma Putra, Barbara Hatley, Marije Plomp, Irawati Durban Ardjo, Rhoma Dwi Aria Yuliantri and Michael Bodden.

The Oxford Handbook of Names and Naming
Author: Carole Hough
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 019163042X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 801
Book Description
In this handbook, scholars from around the world offer an up-to-date account of the state of the art in different areas of onomastics, in a format that is both useful to specialists in related fields and accessible to the general reader. Since Ancient Greece, names have been regarded as central to the study of language, and this has continued to be a major theme of both philosophical and linguistic enquiry throughout the history of Western thought. The investigation of name origins is more recent, as is the study of names in literature. Relatively new is the study of names in society, which draws on techniques from sociolinguistics and has gradually been gathering momentum over the last few decades. The structure of this volume reflects the emergence of the main branches of name studies, in roughly chronological order. The first Part focuses on name theory and outlines key issues about the role of names in language, focusing on grammar, meaning, and discourse. Parts II and III deal with the study of place-names and personal names respectively, while Part IV outlines contrasting approaches to the study of names in literature, with case studies from different languages and time periods. Part V explores the field of socio-onomastics, with chapters relating to the names of people, places, and commercial products. Part VI then examines the interdisciplinary nature of name studies, before the concluding Part presents a selection of animate and inanimate referents ranging from aircraft to animals, and explains the naming strategies adopted for them.

Questioning Modernity in Indonesia and Malaysia
Author: Wendy Mee
Publisher: NUS Press
ISBN: 9789971695637
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Processes of transformation typically defined as "modernising" have been pervasive in Indonesia and Malaysia over an extended period of time and have played a central role in shaping the societies of both countries. Questioning Modernity in Indonesia and Malaysia engages critically with the concept of modernity considering the way it has been used in the analysis of cultural, social, economic and political processes in the two countries. The book argues that while Indonesia and Malaysia can both be considered fully modern, their modernities are not merely derivative of the Western understanding of the word. Written by scholars from both "inside" and "outside" the region, the case studies presented in this volume highlight the extent to which the intellectual tools, concepts, and theories commonly used in academic research reflect a European/Western modernist imaginary. Starting from the premise that modernity viewed from a local rather than a Western perspective takes on different qualities, the authors show how the process of conducting social research in Asia might be re-conceptualized on the basis of a revised understanding of this crucial idea. Their essays make a compelling case for the need to re-assess the application of a supposedly "Western" concept to the study of Asia.

Culture, Multiculture, Postculture
Author: Joel S Kahn
Publisher: SAGE Publications Limited
ISBN:
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
In the 1990s, we are witnessing the influence of cultural signs and symbols that serve to divide humanity into discrete, often conflicting "cultural groups." What brought about this focus on culture? And what should we make of the current importance of cultural politics? In this assured and accessible text, author Joel S. Kahn argues that the idea of difference is of fundamental importance in debates on culture, multiculture, and postculture. He argues for a view of culture and its affiliated forms that is thoroughly based on history. Richly illustrated with resources from fiction and real-life, this volume fully represents the many-sided and ubiquitous place of culture in social life. It shows how cultural distinctions shape our relations to reality and imagination. Culture, Multiculture, and Postculture also addresses globalization, but it avoids the conceits of postmodernism by insisting that differences have not "withered" away, declaring that globalization has, in fact, multiplied cultural differences and diversities.
