Abstract

Penelitian ini secara kritis mengeksplorasi kontribusi sastra komunitas Tionghoa peranakan di Sumatra kolonial melalui lensa majalah Doenia Baroe, sebuah majalah berbahasa Melayu yang terbit di Padang dari Januari hingga November 1930. Meskipun peran Tionghoa peranakan dalam perkembangan sastra dan jurnalisme di Indonesia sangat signifikan, kontribusi mereka tetap terpinggirkan dalam narasi historiografi sastra utama. Dengan menggunakan metodologi penelitian sejarah yang mencakup heuristik sumber, kritik sumber, interpretasi, dan historiografi, artikel ini menganalisis bagaimana Doenia Baroe berfungsi sebagai platform budaya dan intelektual bagi Tionghoa peranakan pada masa kolonial Belanda. Majalah ini menunjukkan orientasi liberal dan kosmopolitan yang strategis dalam lanskap media kolonial, serta perannya dalam membentuk genre sastra baru yang menggabungkan pengaruh Tionghoa, Melayu, dan Barat. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa Doenia Baroe berhasil meng navigasi regulasi pers kolonial yang ketat sambil memberikan ruang bagi Tionghoa peranakan untuk mengartikulasikan identitas, mengkritik realitas sosial, dan berkontribusi pada wacana intelektual era tersebut. Penelitian ini mengisi celah signifikan dalam historiografi sastra Indonesia dengan menunjukkan bahwa produksi sastra Tionghoa peranakan bukan hanya fenomena marginal, tetapi merupakan bagian integral dari lanskap intelektual kolonial, yang menantang kanon sempit yang secara historis mengecualikan kontribusi mereka dari narasi sastra utama.

Abstract

This study examines representations of gender equality in Peranakan Chinese literary works published in the newspaper Doenia Baroe in 1930. As a medium that provided a relatively broad space for expression and social imagination, Doenia Baroe became an essential platform for Peranakan Chinese women in the Dutch East Indies, who stood at the crossroads between conservative Chinese traditions and the expanding influence of Western modernity. Through formal education—both in Tiong Hoa Hwee Koan (THHK) schools and Western-style schools—a group of educated women emerged who began to recognize and question the inequality of gender roles. Employing historical research methods, including heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography, and integrating a gender theory approach, this study analyzes how literary works functioned as a medium for critique, proposed solutions, and reflections on women’s struggles against cultural constraints. The findings indicate that female characters in these works display a growing awareness of the importance of education, freedom in choosing life partners, personal independence, and the courage to enter the public sphere. In addition, the authors frequently portray tragic consequences as moral warnings that highlight tensions between tradition and modernity. Overall, the representation of gender equality in Peranakan Chinese literature reflects broader social dynamics and underscores the role of literature as a significant arena for women’s ideological struggles against gender injustice in the Dutch East Indies during the early twentieth century.

Abstract

This study analyzes the role of ethnic Chinese in the island of Saparua's spice trade. Spices are among the trade commodities with the highest prices. For decades, Chinese traders have been among the distributors of Asian spices to Europe. The progress of maritime routes also affected spice trade activities in the archipelago. In the 16th century, Europeans such as the Portuguese were directly involved in the trade in the Maluku, followed by a trade monopoly by Dutch companies. With the times, spices are no longer a priority in international trade. So, after independence, until the reform of spice prices, it experienced ups and downs. During the colonial government until the reform, Chinese traders played a vital role in the spice trade, especially on Saparua Island. It is necessary to analyze the role of ethnic Chinese in the island of Saparua's spice trade during the colonial and reform periods. Through a historical review using historical methods, from source collection to criticism, interpretation, and historiography, it was found that the role of Chinese traders in Saparua was as merchants as well as channels or distributors between local traders and buyers outside the island.
