Sheldon Pollock (ed., transl.), A Rasa Reader :Classical Indian Aesthetics, Columbia University Press, avril 2016
This book is the first in any language to follow the evolution of rasa from its origins in dramaturgical thought—a concept for the stage—to its flourishing in literary thought—a concept for the page. A Rasa Reader incorporates primary texts by every significant thinker on classical Indian aesthetics, many never translated before. The arrangement of the selections captures the intellectual dynamism that has powered this debate for centuries. Headnotes explain the meaning and significance of each text, a comprehensive introduction summarizes major threads in intellectual-historical terms, and critical endnotes and an extensive bibliography add further depth to the selections.

Women’s Eyes at All Issues: On Indonesia, 14th Northeastern Conference (NEC) on Indonesia, 15-16 avril 2016, accueillie par le Yale Indonesia Forum avec la Cornell Indonesian Association
The organizing committee is seeking proposals that will critically engage with the following questions: What is the role of gender in the modern history of Indonesia? How have Indonesian women contributed to Indonesia’s development over the past seven decades (for example, What do we know about Indonesian Women’s Congress in 1928 and Indonesian women’s movements and their roles in Indonesia and Southeast Asia at large)? To what extent have their contributions been recognized or obscured? How do external or international actors imagine and represent the role of Indonesian women in society? How has gender been constructed historically? How might we interrogate the taken for granted representations of women in Indonesia? How do gender, power, traditions intersect? How has form of femaleness power been controlled or managed? How do women learn/exercise agency in negotiating laws and resisting various authorities? What are the challenges in conducting research on women/gender studies and what new methodologies are available/can be developed through these challenges?

“Earliest hominin occupation of Sulawesi, Indonesia” by Van den Berg et al. in Nature 529 (14 janvier 2016)
Earliest occupation of Sulawesi, Indonesia, pushed back to between 200-100 kya! Van den Bergh et al. (http://bit.ly/1J3ij1c) report in Nature new dates and stone tools excavated from Talepu. The hominin species who discarded these tools remains unknown, but this exciting discovery revises our understanding of hominin occupation, migration and expansion out of Africa and into mainland and island Southeast Asia!

“Collecting European and Asian Art Objects in 17th- and 18th-Century Batavia”by Michael North, 4 mars 2016, Center for Southeast Asia Studies, Berkeley
The visual documents of the Dutch presence in Southeast Asia have not been much studied, although the Dutch East India Company (VOC) has long attracted the attention of scholarship. Important publications have also appeared on the trade, shipping, institutional organization, and administration of the VOC. Much has also been learned about the VOC and Dutch colonial societies. In contrast, the role of the VOC in cultural history and especially in the history of visual and material culture has not yet attracted comparable interest.
This talk will focus therefore on the role and function of art in Batavia, one of the settlements and factories of the Dutch East India Company in Asia. It will demonstrate that many varieties existed in the forms of cultural exchange. The collections of the VOC representatives and merchants here were shaped by Dutch standards of taste, but also contained such local artistic production as Moorish drawings, Chinese pictures and Japanese lacquer works. By including Chinese and indigenous households in Southeast Asia, the talk will also offer insights into the mediating processes between the different ethnicities and cultures in the settlement.
“Linguistic archaeology in Timor” by Juliette Huber, 17 Mars 2016, KITLV
Timor is an island of hybridity. Its people are not only divided by a national frontier, but also by a deeper linguistic divide: in Timor, unlike most other places in eastern Indonesia, speakers of Papuan languages live cheek by jowl with speakers of Austronesian languages. It remains a mystery how this situation came into existence. The conventional understanding of Indonesian prehistory states that Austronesian speakers gradually overwhelmed pre-existing populations of Papuan-speaking hunter-gatherers when they arrived in the region. However, on the basis of anthropological patterns, McWilliam (2007) suggests that the reverse took place in Timor and that Papuan languages arrived on the island after the Austronesian languages.
In this talk, Huber aims to show how linguistics can contribute to our understanding of the (pre-)historic interactions between the Austronesian and Papuan-speaking populations of the island. Huber focuses on the eastern tip of East Timor, where three of the island’s four Papuan languages are clustered, and report on ongoing research using two types of linguistic evidence, namely a) a study of place name etymologies, and b) a linguistic reconstruction of proto-Eastern Timor, the ancestor of the three Papuan languages spoken there today.

« Maps in the crowd » à la bibliothèque de l’Université de Leyde (suite)
Le Projet « Maps in the Crowd » a pour but de rendre accessible en ligne la collection de cartes et d’atlas du KITV grâce à la participation du public.
La collection de cartes et atlas du KITLV comprend 7000 cartes (16 000 feuilles) et 500 atlas datant des 19e et 20e siècles. Les régions concernées sont l’Indonésie, le Surinam, les Antilles Néerlandaises et l’Asie du Sud-Est. Parmi les collections figurent des plans de Java à la fin du 19e siècle et les cartes produites par le Topographisch Bureau de Batavia.
Une application spéciale (Leiden Georeferencer) a été développée permettant aux participants à la numérisation de connecter la carte historique à une carte topographique moderne de Google Maps.
http://libraries.leiden.edu/news/the-crowd-helps-unlocking-historical-maps-of-dutch-east-indies.html
En deux semaines, 3% des cartes, soient 227 cartes ont déjà été géoréférencées. Vous pouvez suivre les progrès de la numérisation sur le blog dédié :

La bibliothèque de l’Université de Leyde vient de lancer un projet visant à donner directement accès à sa collection de « manuscrits orientaux » (y compris les manuscrits malais) à partir de son catalogue en ligne.
In the course of time scholars have extensively studied and described many thousands of them in dozens of printed catalogues. However, the majority of the Oriental manuscripts can neither be found in Leiden’s online catalogue nor in other international databases. To remedy this, the library has started a project to make concise bibliographic records available for this treasure trove of manuscripts, provided with references to these scholarly catalogs and, if possible, also with links to pdf’s of the catalogs. The records will become available in the online catalogue by the end of 2016.
Women and Folktales Project : un projet du Festival du film de Luang Prabang et du Centre pour les arts traditionnels et l’ethnologie (Laos)
Funded by the US Embassy Vientiane, the project filmed seven women, from Hmong, Kmhmu, and Tai Lue villages around Luang Prabang Province, recounting 19 traditional folktales in their native languages. These films were translated into Lao and English, subtitled, and are now archived within the digital libraries of LPFF and the Traditional Arts and Ethnology Centre.
Three of these folktales, one from each ethnic group, were turned into animated shorts with the creative input of the storytellers. “The Dog and Her Three Daughters” (Hmong), “The Spider Man” (Kmhmu), and “What the Buffalo Told the Humans” (Tai Lue) are traditional, yet vibrant, cartoons that will be used by TAEC’s Education and Outreach Team in local primary schools and distributed to libraries and children’s organizations, exposing a whole new audience to the diverse cultural heritage of Laos.
