Pipit Rochijat’s Subversive Mythologies

Pipit Rochijat’s Subversive Mythologies


Asian Folklore Studies, Volume 65, 2006: 21–44

The Suharto Era and Beyond

This article examines Indonesian émigré Pipit Rochijat’s attempts to adapt and renew the tales of the traditional shadow theatre, the wayang. The significance of Pipit’s subversive mythologies lies in the historical context in which these reinterpretations occurred: at the height of Suharto’s New Order regime in the mid 1980s. At a time when censorship and self-censorship had virtually crippled the critical impulse of Indonesian cultural ... read more

SHADOW BOXING: INDONESIAN WRITERS AND THE RAMAYANA IN THE NEW ORDER

SHADOW BOXING: INDONESIAN WRITERS AND THE RAMAYANA IN THE NEW ORDER


Cornell University, October 2001

Marshall Clark

Introduction

This article is a study of the ideas, visions, and styles of a number of Indonesia’s writers in the New Order—in particular, the final years of the New Order—who chose to rework and reinterpret the Ramayana epic of the Javanese wayang kulit shadow puppet theatre. The deliberate choice by these writers to use Indonesian as their medium of linguistic communication has proven to be a decision in favor of distancing themselves from their ... read more
