Planning the Megacity examines the dramatic transformation of Jakarta over the past century. In 1900, the colonial capital of the Netherland Indies, then known as Batavia, was a compact city of approximately 150,000 inhabitants. During the next hundred years, but especially after 1950, it was transformed into the sprawling ‘megacity’ of more than 9 million in an urbanized region that boasted nearly 18 million by 2000. How this metamorphosis took place and what it meant for the life of Jakartans are questions central to the story of the city, as is the role of both local and national leaders in the control and manipulation of processes of growth. As Christopher Silver reveals, Jakarta’s place as Indonesia’s most prestigious city, and its capital city, subjected it to conflicting approaches to planning, and placed its development within the vortex of national development. He reveals how colonialism, the struggle for independence and for improving the national condition, together with aspirations for economic modernization, contributed to the distinctive character of Southeast Asia’s largest metropolitan area.

Les Asmat, population de Papouasie occidentale, ont connu une évangélisation récente, depuis 1953, et une transformation des pratiques culturelles telles que la chasse aux têtes, avec l'arrivée de missionnaires catholiques et protestants. Outre le champ religieux, l'évangélisation se situe dans les domaines de l'architecture, de l'alimentation, de la sorcellerie, des relations familiales.

Indonesia is the home of the largest single Muslim community of the world. Its Christian community, about 10% of the population, has until now received no overall description in English. Through cooperation of 26 Indonesian and European scholars, Protestants and Catholics, a broad and balanced picture is given of its 24 million Christians. This book sketches the growth of Christianity during the Portuguese period (1511-1605), it presents a fair account of developments under the Dutch colonial administration (1605-1942) and is more elaborate for the period of the Indonesian Republic (since 1945). It emphasizes the regional differences in this huge country, because most Christians live outside the main island of Java. Muslim-Christian relations, as well as the tensions between foreign missionaries and local theology, receive special attention.

In dit boek worden de levens van tien vooraanstaande personen uit de Nederlandse (post)koloniale geschiedenis beschreven. De aandacht voor het persoonlijk leven biedt een aantrekkelijk perspectief bij het reconstrueren van de impact die deze individuen op de loop van de geschiedenis hebben gehad. De geportretteerden vertegenwoordigen verschillende sociaal-maatschappelijke groepen uit zowel 'de Oost' als 'de West'. Door hun biografie te verbinden met de nationale heldencultuur van Indonesië en Suriname worden deze levens-geschiedenissen in een breder cultuurhistorisch kader geplaatst. De bijdragen in Tropenlevens zijn onderverdeeld naar tien 'ideaaltypen': de activist (Grace Schneiders-Howard), de verheffer (Tjalie Robinson), de militair (Frederik Hirschmann), de homo universalis (Albert Helman), de internationalist (Tan Malaka), de literator (Madelon Lulofs), de dichter (Robin Raveles), de strijder (Sutan Sjahrir), de politicus (Henck Arron) en de adviseur (Sayyid 'Uthmân).

L'expansion de l'art indien en Asie du sud-est fut une véritable épopée, dans le plein sens du terme, et cette aventure ressort tout autant de l'histoire que de la légende et du mythe. Forts d'une longue tradition de contacts commerciaux avec le monde méditerranéen, les Indiens du début de l'ère chrétienne se tournèrent vers l'Asie du Sud-Est où ils établirent rapidement des comptoirs, en Birmanie, en Thaïlande, au Cambodge, à Java, dans la péninsule malaise et dans le delta du Mékong. Cette présence indienne, que ne motivait aucune volonté de conquête territoriale et qui ne fut jamais appuyée par une force militaire, demeura toujours pacifique. Dans le domaine religieux, hindouisme et bouddhisme s'implantèrent progressivement, apportant l'iconographie et les doctrines qui leur étaient propres, sans pour autant éliminer les cultes locaux. L'hindouisme devait par la suite décliner, laissant la prééminence au bouddhisme dans l'ensemble de la région. Entre temps, la démarcation entre les deux religions s'était toutefois amoindrie, le bouddhisme ayant intégré, outre des emprunts aux croyances autochtones, un certain nombre d'éléments issus de l'hindouisme. C'est donc bien d'un art indien, ou au moins indianisé, dont on peut parler, dans ces régions où bouddhisme et hindouisme cohabitèrent en bonne harmonie avec les cultures locales. Les monuments subsistant aujourd'hui restent souvent, en dépit des outrages du temps, d'une imposante majesté et exercent sur le visiteur une indicible fascination. Il y eut, en Asie du Sud-Est, un double phénomène d'absorption, chaque culture adoptant, puis adaptant doctrines religieuses, modèles esthétiques et iconographiques, leur apportant à chaque fois sa griffe propre pour aboutir à des styles artistiques originaux. Et l'art indien se perpétuait ainsi, développant au-delà de sa terre d'origine des ramifications nouvelles.

The Arjunawiwāha is one of the best known of the Old Javanese classics. This volume presents a new text, based on Balinese manuscripts, with a complete translation, building on the work done by earlier writers. An introduction provides ample background information, as well as an original interpretation of the significance of the text, within its historical and cultural setting. This poem was written by Mpu Kanwa in around A.D. 1030 under King Airlangga, who ruled in East Java. It is Mpu Kanwa’s only known work, and is the second oldest example in the genre of kakawin . The poem is a narrative, but also contains passages of description, philosophical or religious teaching of great interest, as well as remarkable erotic scenes. Parts of the tale have been depicted on early temple reliefs and in paintings, and the text is still recited in Bali by literary clubs and in temple ceremonies. Full text (Open Access)
