Abstract

This article attempts to give a brief picture about the genre and themes in the Dutch-Indies Literature from the VOC period. During the VOC-period, more than six months was needed to embark on a journey by sea from the Netherlands to Batavia. Undertaking this journey meant encountering many obstacles which occurred through the work of man as well as nature. In addition, a successful landing on the shores of the East did not always ensure a friendly reception. Due to these obstacles which they encountered, only a small number of those who had set sail from Europe were able to return home safely. Most of those who managed to survive this long and dangerous journey to the land of spices, finally chose to stay and start a new life in the East. Some of these men, in an effort to establish their new life, were able to make contact and build relationships with the local women. This paved the way for the emergence of the Mestis culture, in which we find the elements of East and West.

Abstract

R.M. Noto Soeroto was one of the Indonesian writers who wrote in Dutch. His poems and essays in Dutch were well appreciated by both the Dutch and the Indonesian society in the Netherlands. He published his works in Oedaya: Majalah bergambar untuk Indonesia, a magazine (1923-1931) that was founded by him. His works can be categorized as Dutch-East Indies literature. Most of his works in Dutch were written when he lived in the Netherlands and describe the Javanese culture. This article is an analysis on three of Soeroto's poems. These three poems present flowers as theme, two poems are from his anthology Melatiknoppen: gedichten in proza (1915) and one poem from De geur van moeders haarwrong (1922). Flowers are most usually seen as a symbol for women, and thus represent the idea of femininity. However, the flowers in these three poems refer to the idea of masculinity. Jasmine is no longer a symbol limited to the feminine gender. In Javanese culture, the jasmine flower attached to the hair is a symbol of femininity. The flower wrapped around the kris is a symbol of masculinity. Furthermore jasmine is a symbol for struggle. This article tries to demonstrate the presence of masculinity through the use of flowers and their role as an image of masculinity in Noto Soeroto's poems.
