Une version orale du mythe de Sawérigading recueillie à Kandora, Méngkéndek, Pays Toraja
Authors: Salombe Cornelius 
Published: September 2009

4) Bien qu'on ait pu qualifier ce héros de "personnification du peuple bugis", Sawérigading n'est pas inconnu du pays toraja. Cornélius Salombé' (Fakultas Sastra, Universitas Hasanuddin, Ujung Pandang) y a recueilli une version particulièment intéressante de sa visite aux enfers, à la recherche de Pindakati, la jeune épouse qu'il a perdue peu après leur mariage. Mais les morts ne peuvent retourner au monde des vivants, et, arrivée à sa frontière, elle se change en pierre. La seconde partie rapporte l'histoire de Jamallono, née de Sawérigading et de Pindakati peu avant la métamorphose de sa mère.
Le texte, que complète utilement une comparaison avec la version bugis, est particulièrement éclairant pour la connaissance des conceptions toraja concernant l'au-delà, et pour comprendre les idées qui sous-tendent le rituel funéraire et ses rapports avec la fécondité et le rituel agraire. C'est aussi un document de première importance qui atteste de l'étroite communauté culturelle ayant uni autrefois les Toraja et les anciens Bugis.
La communauté chinoise de Surabaya. Essai d'histoire, des origines à la crise de 1930
Authors: Lombard-Salmon Claudine 
Published: September 2009

Claudine Salmon
Although a large body of literature has been produced on the Chinese of Java, there are very few studies of the history of their various settlements. We present here a detailed study of the Chinese community of Surabaya whose historical development appears to be specific to East Java. In the first part, we discuss the sources concerning the beginnings of the community and briefly allude to an early Islamisation process which allowed the settlers to intermingle with local society. In the second part, we single out three big Peranakan families (the Han, the Tjoa and the The), whose history (which lasts from the end of the 17th or the beginning of the 18th century to the early 1930s) may be regarded as representative of the different ways the Chinese and their descendants adapted themselves to the host society. In the third part, we put the attempts of the community to re-establish its Chinese roots into relation with political issues on the Mainland and in Java. The first attempt started in Surabaya in 1864 with the foundation of the Hokkien Kong Tik Soe or "Temple of the Merits of Fujian", which was aimed at reviving Chinese funeral and marriage customs and curbing the process of Islamisation. The second attempt, much broader in scope, was aimed at promoting Chinese education by the foundation of various private schools (one of them, the Hoo Tjiong Hak Tong, 1903, was closely linked with Mainland revolutionnaries), reviving Confucianism as a reaction against Westernization (foundation of a temple dedicated to Confucius in 1898), establishment of a Chinese Chamber of Commerce (1906) intended to help the local Chinese merchants to promote their enterprises both in the South Seas and in China. Since the last decades of the 19th century there has been a continuous stream of migrations from the Mainland that gradually modified the social and economic structure of the Chinese community and finally caused it to split up. In the fourth part we deal with the Totok (or newcomers) who started to organise themselves into a great number of smaller associations (on the basis of geography, profession or lineal descent) ; we also pay attention to the Peranakan who resented the competition of the newcomers decided to struggle separately. This restructuration was disrupted by the recession of the 1920s, the depression of 1930, which affected the Chinese of Java and especially of Surabaya, and was finally stopped with the occupation of the Dutch Indies by the Japanese.
The conclusion suggests that since Independence, the history of the Indonesians of Chinese descent in Surabaya cannot be dissociated from that of the city as a whole.
Mort à Sabang. Histoire d'une sépulture militaire française à Sumatra
Authors: Rocher Jean 
Published: September 2009

Jean Rocher
In the ancient cemetery of Sabang (on the island of Weh in north Sumatra) is a
modest tombstone which constitutes the only French military « graveyard » in
Indonesia.
The author examines the strange history of this tomb. The story begins when the remains of two French soldiers are placed there. They were killed during the confrontation between the German cruiser Emden and the French anti- torpedo boat Mousquet (1914).
By considering the damage inflicted on this monument, one also can see the lively destiny of this little island positioned at the intersection of larger maritimes movements. However, a mystery enshrouds this tombstone. Will the reader be able to solve it ?
Retour en Malaisie de Henri Fauconnier
Authors: Labrousse Pierre 
Published: September 2009

Pierre Labrousse
In 1930, Henri Fauconnier was awarded the Goncourt [Litererary] Prize for his novel, Malaisie. It takes place within the context of a Selangor plantation, which he himself had opened at the beginning of the century. This article draws upon his family archives to understand better the personal journey of a writer born to a bourgeois family in Charente.
An analysis of several critical reviews of his novel resituates his work within the literary context of the time. If his novel is known for its extreme sensitivity to the Soul of Malaya (the title of one of the English translations) and is considered one of the best French texts on the subject, the impressionistic picture the author paints of his Malasian experiences places this novel outside of history and the first breaks within the colonial empire.
Un danseur javanais en France : Raden Mas Jodjana (1893-1972)
Authors: Bonneff Marcel , Labrousse Pierre 
Published: September 2009

Marcel Bonneff
Between the two world wars, the professional career of the Javanese danser, Raden Mas Jodjana, was known in all of Europe. Relying mainly on his family archives, this article follows his trail («From Yogyakarta to La Réole»); analyses the reasons for his success («The Triumph of Shiva»); his contacts with his own culture («Sangkan-paran») ; and his birthplace («The Meaning of Being an Exile»). The final section of this article («A French Destiny») focuses on the time he spent in France — with his wife, children and his disciple Roemahlaiselan. In southern France, he established an «International Cultural Centre» in 1934. It attracted numerous artists who wanted to learn his methods of corporal expression. His artistic destiny and that of his wife, Raden Ayou Jodjana, opened the way to a greater degree of cultural understanding [between the East and the West], which corresponded to the «orientalist» context that reigned during this epoch.
Louis-Charles Damais, un humaniste en Indonésie. Détails d'une vie à Java à travers sa correspondance
Authors: Elbaz Jean-Pascal 
Published: September 2009

Jean-Pascal Elbaz
Through a reading of the excerpts of the unpublished correpondence of Louis- Charles Damais, stored in Jakarta, the author attempts to reconstitute the life of a researcher working in Indonesia at the crucial time when the country was making its transition from Dutch colonisation to independence. This short essay points up the problems, both professional and material, which Damais had to face in a country dislocated by the rapid succession of political changes. This article also considers the humanist view of a Westerner for a people trying to regain its dignity by struggling against a colonial system, which Damais himself held to be morally unjustified.
Communautés expatriées, entre France et Indonésie
Authors: Raillon François 
Published: September 2009

François Raillon
To a large extent the relationship between France and Indonesia is determined by their respective expatriate communities, which in turn are affected by the state and evolution of the relationship. The French community in Indonesia (some 3000 people) is basically engaged in business activities. But the French expatriates find it difficult to expand due to a lack of continuity in France's strategy towards Indonesia despite a high priority given to the Archipelago. In France, the Indonesian community is even more limited (around 1000 people) ; its members are deeply involved in pursuing higher education and training in technological fields, within the framework of a number of doctoral programs between both countries.
Data about both communities are presented and discussed, as well as developments in the French-Indonesian relationship with its major emphasis on business and training ; however a large mental cultural gap remains between both communities, as their respective cultures and motives differ widely.
Bantayan : An Early Makassarese Kingdom, 1200-1600 A.D
Authors: Bougas Wayne 
Published: September 2009

Wayne A. Bougas
This article describes the development of Bantayan (Bantaeng), a pre-Islamic,
Makassarese kingdom, on the south coast of South Sulawesi. The Nagara-
Kertagama, a count poem written in Majapahit Java in 1365 A. D., indicates
that Bantayan was one of the three most important centers in South Sulawesi at
that time.
The author uses four sources to explain Bantaeng' s rise : (1) an archaeological
field survey of Bantaeng (2) accounts of grave robbers who looted Bantaeng' s
major sites (3) myths describing the development of kingship in Bantaeng and
(4) pre-Islamic, religious beliefs and rites.
The author concludes that one of Bantaeng' s oldest kingdoms emerged along
the Biangkeke River at Gantarang Keke in eastern Bantaeng. This kingdom
may have traded with Majapahit. The expansion of wet rice agriculture and
increased trade in the 14th and 15th centuries A. D. saw the rise of another
powerful kingdom at Bissampole/Lembang Cina along the Calendu River in
central Bantaeng. A third center rose at Kaili in west Bantaeng. Lembang Cina
in central Bantaeng grew so powerful that it ultimately dominated the two
other centers to the east and west.
The article also explains how tomanurung veneration provided the religious
and ideological basis for kingship in Bantaeng. Dynasties there and elsewhere
in South Sulawesi were thought to have been founded by heavenly descended
beings known as tomanurung.
Finally, the paper concludes by providing some suggestions for Bantaeng' s
subsequent decline in the 16th century.
Personal Status and Ritualized Exchange in Majapahit Java
Authors: Hall Kenneth R. 
Published: September 2009

Kenneth R. Hall
Durant la période des années 1200-1500, la mobilité dans l'échelle sociale javanaise s'explique par une richesse nouvelle et des opportunités de distinction de statut. La cour encouragea l'élite des communautés rurales à se penser comme partie d'un ordre royal hiérarchique basé sur les lignées et à participer à la vénération des ancêtres du roi. Une personne pouvait prendre place dans le réseau rituel royal et profiter d'une amélioration de son statut personnel en recevant un nouveau titre. Elle se soumettait ainsi au pouvoir du roi, de ses ancêtres et des dieux indiens avec lesquels ils se confondaient. Des familles étaient encouragées à rechercher richesse et statut et à développer la conscience du lignage, ce qui eut pour effet de donner un essor aux activités rurales. Les profits de l'économie rizicole javanaise largement excédentaires aux XIVe et XVe siècles permit à l'élite et aux aspirants à celle-ci (en compétition avec la vieille élite pour ses privilèges) de participer dans tout le royaume aux fêtes et célébrations fastueuses qui culminaient dans les cérémonies de cour dans lesquelles elle faisait montre de son succès matériel. En théorie, le roi contrôlait toutes les forces affectant la prospérité terrestre ainsi que le salut éternel, ce qui lui permettait d'incorporer ses sujets terrestres dans la société centrée sur la cour de Majapahit.

A "Chinese" Mousedeer Goes to Paris

Ian Proudfoot, Australian National University, Asian Studies Faculty A " Chinese " Mousedeer Goes to Paris
Cet article retrace la «biographie» d'un manuscrit malais du XVIIe siècle, la plus ancienne version de l'histoire du cerf nain. D'un style très vivant, ce texte est plus court que les versions ultérieures. Il met aussi en question de façon plus significative la légitimité de l'autorité royale. Il a, sans aucun doute, été recopié à l'extérieur du palais par un groupe de trois copistes qui employaient des orthographes très diverses. Suite à une utilisation intense, des morceaux du manuscrit ont disparu. Il est ensuite passé entre les mains d'Européens. On en trouve les traces pour la dernière fois entre Batavia et Paris où l'on oublie son origine Sud-Est asiatique et où l'on croit pendant un certain temps qu'il s'agit d'un livre venant de Chine.
La dernière hikayat malaise
Authors: Goriaeva Lioubov 
Published: September 2009

Lioubov Goriaeva
The Malay Hikayat Marakarma, as it is found (incomplete) in two manuscripts kept in Saint- Petersburg, is not the text we usually know by that name or that of Hikayat Si Miskin, but a continuation of it. Some evidence in the manuscripts seems to indicate that the text was written in the middle of the last century by an author close to the Fadli family, known for keeping a lending library in Batavia from the 1850s to 1912. This text was popular enough to be copied again around 1910. The author of this article analyses the story of this "new" Hikayat Marakarma according to Propp's algorithm. She shows that the proportion of the "ceremonial ornaments" compared with the "basic structure" of the story is far higher in this text than in traditional hikayat, including the Hikayat Si Miskin. These " ceremonial ornaments ", mainly related to the protocol visits that the royal families pay each other, occupy no less that a third of the text and make the story extremely slow and repetitive. The author concludes that in the course of time, the style of the Malay hikayat lost its dynamism and became increasingly weighed down by stereotypes: "The creative abilities of the hikayat as a genre were worn out".
Master scribes : Husin bin Ismail, Abdullah bin Abdulkadir Munsyi, their handwriting and the Hikayat Abdullah
Authors: Tol Roger 
Published: September 2009

Roger Tol
Cet article traite de deux éminentes personnalités du monde des Lettres malaises, qui ont travaillé en étroite collaboration à Singapour, dans les années 1830 et 1840. Le premier, Abdullah bin Abdulkadir connut le succès comme la gloire dès le début de sa carrière. Son autobiographie, Hikayat Abdullah ainsi que ses autres œuvres sont toujours lues et appréciées à l'heure actuelle. Le second, le Bugis Husin Bin Ismail - sans doute le scribe le plus productif en manuscrits malais - demeure beaucoup moins connu. Un examen de leur graphies respectives pourrait conduire à résoudre l'énigme des «deux» Hikayat Abdullah conservées aujourd'hui en Nouvelle-Zélande.
Cet examen est basé sur une prometteuse technique d'analyse des graphies enjawi qui devrait apporter des éléments nouveaux dans le débat sur l'identification de celles-ci.
Variation in Bugis Manuscripts
Authors: Macknight C.C. , Caldwell I.A. 
Published: September 2009

C.C. Macknight & LA. Caldwell
Les Bugis de Célèbes-Sud, de même que les Makassar et d'autres de leurs voisins, possèdent une tradition de l'écrit qui remonte aux environs de l'année 1300. Bien qu'apparentée à d'autres traditions lointainement dérivées, comme elles, d'un modèle indien, celle-ci s'en distingue par de nombreux détails, tant du point de vue de ses pratiques que de l'écriture utilisée ; par voie de conséquence, les méthodes philologiques qui ont été mises au point pour l'étude des manuscrits malais, javanais ou autres, ne peuvent pas être utilisées sans quelque esprit critique.
Notre intérêt pour les manuscrits Bugis et leur contenu nous a amenés à prendre en considération les différences existant entre les multiples versions manuscrites d'un même ouvrage. Nous donnons dans cet article la définition et des exemples de cinq niveaux de variation, liés aux particularités de l'écriture et du contexte culturel. Cette analyse met en lumière ce qu'est la pratique de l'écriture et son rôle dans le contexte bugis traditionnel. Il en résulte, pour la mise au point d'éditions imprimées modernes de telles œuvres, certaines implications, qui sont ici brièvement passées en revue.
Nayinar Kuniyappan. Un Tamoul, syahbandar de Samudera-Pasai au début du XVIe siècle
Authors: Dos Santos Alves Jorge 
Published: September 2009

Jorge M. dos Santos Alves
This historical study describes the life and times of a Tamil merchant who played a role in the commercial and political life of the sultanates of Northern Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula at the beginning of the 16th century. Nayinar Kuniyappan is known from Portuguese sources as he chose to be the Portuguese ally on several occasions in the midst of the constant struggles for hegemony in the region. He was a wealthy merchant trading with Aceh, Kedah, Melacca and Pegu; he was also the powerful syahbandar (harbour master) of Samudera-Pasai and seems to have nourished political ambitions.
When the Portuguese had to flee Samudra-Pasai in 1523 he followed them to Goa but was back in Malacca the following year. He eventually died in a naval fight with another merchant. It was then discovered that he may have been a Muslim. Through this colourful life story the turbulent times of the early European expansion are depicted.
"A Watchful Eye" ; The Meccan Plot of 1881 and Changing Dutch Perceptions of Islam in Indonesia
Authors: Laffan Michael F. 
Published: September 2009

Michael Laffan, HAS
Les rapports officiels hollandais (mailrapporten) envoyés de Batavia à La Haye à la fin du siècle dernier montrent comment la désinformation conduisit en 1881 à une véritable panique et un resserrement de la surveillance des musulmans des Indes. Les fonctionnaires néerlandais, aux Indes comme en Arabie, voyaient dans les musulmans des Indes des sujets passifs de la propagande pan-islamiste «des Arabes et des Turcs». Après l'échec d'un prétendu complot destiné à renverser les colonisateurs, ce regain d'attention engendra cependant une meilleure compréhension des liens de l'Indonésie avec le Hedjaz et plus particulièrement de l'activité croissante de la confrérie Naqshabandiyah.
Les Malais du Cap existent-ils ?
Authors: Germain Eric 
Published: September 2009

Eric Germain
The Malay community of Cape Town has its origin in the slaves and political exiles sent there in the second half of the 17th c. Islam, the religion shared by the Malays and some Indian communities, was officially recognised only a century later and spread through new groups: Malagasi, Black people and mestizos. The unity, divisions and the denomination of this pluri- ethnic community have been conditioned ever since by political and economic choices coming from inside as well as outside its circle. The diachronic study of these various strategies offers an example of the way dynamics of identity are implemented.
La traversée des années 90 par les calembours (plesetan)
Authors: Labrousse Pierre 
Published: September 2009

Pierre Labrousse
The term of plesetan describes several types of puns in the Javanese culture. It has to be defined as much by a linguistic typology as by its function of communication : rupture of conventions, surprise effect, triggering of laughter and the assertion of complicity between the group of laughers. In the 90s, this form of pun, combined to the traditional theatre (ketoprak plesetan), to the invention of anti-governmental abbreviations and postmodenists ideas, enables to fill, under cover of an adherence to the traditional Javanese culture, the space of subversive laughter. It will even experience with President Abdurrahman Wahid, famous for his jokes, a sort of self-destructive peak : making jokes about himself Gus Dur becomes self-destructive.
From New Order to National Disintegration. The Religious Factor between Reality, Manipulation, and Rationalization
Authors: Meuleman Johan H. 
Published: September 2009

Johan H. Meuleman
Dans un cadre de plus longue durée et à travers une analyse de plusieurs conflits politiques et intercommunautaires récents, cet article cherche à répondre aux questions suivantes : dans quelle mesure le facteur religieux a-t-il été important dans les profondes transformations qui ont marqué l'évolution contemporaine de l'Indonésie et quel a été le rapport entre le facteur religieux et d'autres facteurs : sociaux, économiques, ethniques, etc.. Il conclut que la religion n'a jamais joué un rôle indépendant ou dominant, mais a souvent agi en combinaison avec différents facteurs. Dans ce cadre, la rationalisation de ces conflits dans plusieurs analyses indonésiennes et étrangères et la manipulation sociale et politique de l'élément religieux reçoivent une attention particulière.
Indonesian Traditionalist Islam's. Troubled Experience with Democracy (1999-2001)
Authors: Feillard Andrée 
Published: September 2009

Andrée Feillard
Le premier président élu démocratiquement en Indonésie est issu des rangs de l'élite musulmane traditionaliste, le Nahdlatul Ulama. Derrière l'union de circonstance avec l'Islam réformiste se cachent de profondes divisions, et surtout des interrogations fondamentales sur la démocratie. L'article montre l'existence chez les oulémas du Nahdlatul Ulama de fortes réticences à la présidence d'Abdurrahman Wahid, petit-fils du fondateur du mouvement. Par ses nombreuses faiblesses face à une critique généralisée, la présidence de Wahid a provoqué de nouvelles tensions entre loyalistes, décidés à utiliser les moyens extra-parlementaires pour sauver l'honneur du président et celui du Nahdlatul Ulama, les oulémas cherchant dans Icfiqh (jurisprudence islamique) des réponses sages pour répondre à la dissidence politique. Cet article présente le regard de la plus grande organisation musulmane sur elle-même durant cette période clé, et son impact direct sur le contexte politico-religieux aujourd'hui.
Aceh et les lectures de l'histoire
Authors: Guillot Claude 
Published: September 2009

Claude Guillot
Aceh's present critical situation has recently prompted the publication of a number of books. This short article endeavours to compare the memory of Aceh's past as preserved by the authors of these books with the history of the region as we know it. By pointing to the basic discrepancy between historical reality and its perception, this comparison may help to better understand the difficulties met by the people of Aceh when contemplating their own future in a concrete way.
