Criticism on Indonesian poems.
The histQry of this book dates back exactly 20 years. When I first set foot on the shores O'f Indonesia in September 1947, I was, amongst other things, assigned the task 0'£ teaching Malay literature in an advanced teacher-training course, with the instructiOon to' lay stress on modern literature. This was easier said than done, as very little had been written Oon the subject, and few materials were available to me. From this period I recall with great gratitude the regular and friendly contacts I had with Mr. Sutan Takdir Alisjahbana, whO' in many ways me with information and documentatiO'n. helped The editQrs of the magazine "Kritiek en Opbouw" found my lecture nffies Qn some pre-war authors worth publishing. These articles, with an introduction on Bahasa Indonesia and some other additiQns, were subsequently coUected and published by Pembangunan under the title Voltooid Voorspel (Completed Prelude) (Djakarta 1950). The little book sold fairly quickly, but rather than publishing a new edition in Dutch the publisher was interested in bringing out an Indo~ nesian adaptation. Much material was added, the larger part of which had been CQllected by writing occasional reviews Qf Indonesian literary works for the Dutch newspaper Nieuwsgier in Djakarta. The text of the book was very conscientiously turned intO' Bahasa Indonesia by Anku Raihul Amar gl
Lis tidak pernah menyangka harus berpisah dengan Darren karena laki-laki itu mesti melanjutkan studinya di luar negeri. Perpisahan itu membawa trauma pada Lis. Dia merasa hidupnya terombangambing karena sudah nyaman dengan kehadiran Darren. Sebagai terapi, dia menulis sebuah buku puisi yang akhirnya diterbitkan oleh penerbit tempatnya bekerja. Meski demikian, dia memakai nama pena agar orang lain tidak tahu soal puisi yang dia ciptakan. Tidak disangka-sangka, tiba-tiba Darren kembali hadir di hidupnya. Laki-laki itu menjadi manajer di galeri terkenal sekaligus seniman sukses. Lambat laun, sosoknya hadir lagi di kehidupan Lis. Lis pun merasa hidupnya kembali utuh saat Darren berada di sisinya. Namun, Lis sadar ada yang berbeda dengan hubungannya kali ini. Lis tidak tahu laki-laki itu menganggapnya sebagai apa. Jangan-jangan Lis terjebak dalam permainan Òmantan jadi sahabatÓ? Menjelang pergantian tahun baru, Lis ingin memastikan perasaan Darren terhadapnya. Berbagai dugaan saling tumpang tindih. Haruskah Lis tetap pada keputusan awal untuk meminta kejelasan akan perasaan Darren? Atau mestinya dia urungkan saja niat itu?
Criticism on Indonesian poems.
Indonesian poetry, like the country and also the language, is basically a product of this century. Only in the twentieth century have the people of this vast archipelago begun to achieve a unified cultural identity and national spirit; only since 1928 has the possibility, and by now the reality, of a common language been realized; and only since World War II have Indonesians achieved nationhood. Yet Indonesia has already produced a highly individual, lyric poetry that s in many ways unusual. Reflecting the diverse heritage of the Orient and the West—Moslem, Buddhist, Hindu, and Christian; Malay, Chinese, Dutch, and others—a poetic expression is developing that is accessible to, and meaningful for, both East and West. In this first major study of this poetic flowering, Burton Raffel traces its development, discusses the work of such major figures as Chairil Anwar, and points the paths the most recent poets are taking. This is illustrated with a wealth of examples—in translations mostly by the author, but also with samples of the original Indonesian to convey the flavor of the language—and by an extensive appendix of Indonesian literary criticism that indicates how the poets themselves view their role and their performance. The Development of Modern Indonesian Poetry provides the English-speaking public with a rare insight into the cultural development of the fifth most populous country in the world, and raises along the way some questions important for an understanding of the relationship between poetry and politics in nonaligned nations.
