Abstract

This paper is a critical analysis of two important texts in two cultural traditions, namely the story of “The Fall” in Genesis chapter 3 in the Judeo-Christian tradition and “Sang Durjodana Arsa Ngasoraké Pandawa sarana Prang Dadu” in the Mahabharata epic in the Javanese tradition, Sadjarah Pandawa Korawa, by Raden Tanojo. The analysis process of juxtaposing the two texts will use the characterization method that focuses on the speech and actions performed by the serpent and Sengkuni as a representation of external elements that are capable of influencing human actions. Both are portrayed as intelligent and cunning, and they use their cunning to tempt other characters, Eve and Yudhistira, to sin or mistake. In addition, a text reading of the Book of Genesis can provide a perspective that not everything has to end with war and violence in the Mahabharata. Also, a text-reading of the Mahabharata can provide a perspective that humans must dare to bear their faults instead of running and hiding as told in the Book of Genesis.

Abstract

Inculturation is one of the crucial aspects in the living out of the Christian faith. Without inculturation, the Christian faith would become alienated from the context of believers’ lives. Conversely, with inculturation, faith becomes more vibrant as it is not only expressed in accordance with the local context, but also touches the concrete lives of the people. This research concentrates in exploring the uniqueness and distinctiveness of the inculturation of four statues of Mother Mary within Javanese culture in several pilgrimage sites and churches. The four statues of Mother Mary are Dyah Marijah Iboe Ganjoeran, Maria Ratuning Katentreman lan Karaharjan in Gantang, Bunda Maria Stella Maris in Pacitan, and Maria Bunda Segala Suku in Jakarta. By using this qualitative method, the research employs literature review, interviews, and field observations. The aim of this research is to analyze the forms of Javanese-styled Mother Mary statues and reflect on them within the framework of theological inculturation. Based on Ferdinand de Saussure's semiotic analysis, it is concluded that the Mother Mary statues are signs that representing her personality. As sign, each statue has symbolic meanings derived from its name/title, accessories, clothing, and body position. The theological reflection also indicates that each statue possesses dimensions of inculturation that align with the local (Javanese) cultural taste. Therefore, the acculturative effort towards these Mother Mary statues further supports the devotion of the faithful to the figure of Mother Mary, as one of the expressions of their faith.
