Abstract

Islamization has been one of the dominant discourses in the Ponorogo region, shaping various aspects of social and cultural life. The traditional art of Reyog Ponorogo represents a local cultural practice that cannot be separated from this discourse. This study aims to examine the influence of Islamization discourse on the traditions of Reyog Ponorogo. The research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach and a critical paradigm. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using the interactive model developed by Miles and Huberman. Michel Foucault’s discourse theory (1926–1984) serves as the primary analytical framework. The findings reveal that Islamization discourse in Ponorogo has significantly transformed the values embedded in Reyog Ponorogo and shaped public perceptions of traditional culture. This transformation is evident in the modification of song lyrics, costume design, ritual offerings, and the gemblak tradition. Furthermore, Islamization has influenced how Reyog Ponorogo is practiced within the broader context of cultural development and preservation. The study contributes to a deeper understanding of shifting cultural identity in Ponorogo and demonstrates the relevance of Foucault’s theory in analyzing the dynamics of religious discourse. The originality of this research lies in its application of Foucault’s discourse theory to the transformation of Reyog Ponorogo, a perspective that has not been systematically explored in previous studies.

Abstract

One version of the history of Art Reog Ponorogo that has appeared in Ponorogo since the days of the Wengker Kingdom, in which the kingdom still adheres to Hindu-Buddhist beliefs, With the passage of time and the spread of Islam to the Ponorogo area, brought by Raden Bathoro kathong and accompanied by various teachings, cultures, and religious dogmas, there was a process of shifting and acculturation of the ritual traditions and customs of the Ponorogo people from Hindu-Buddhist teachings to Islamic teachings gradually. This study aims to determine the process of acculturation of Islamic culture to the art of Reog Ponorogo and to know the supporting factors, opportunities, and constraints. The method used in this research is grounded research. The results of this study show that the process of acculturation of Islamic culture in the Reog Ponorogo art began with the spread of Islam in Ponorogo brought by Raden Batoro Katong, and this process runs very smoothly and can coexist between Islamic culture and Reog Ponorogo art. The existence of supporting factors in the form of the number of existing Islamic institutions and the majority of people who have embraced Islam led to the opportunity of the acculturation process being very large, and obstacles that hinder the process are the limited funds for the procurement of art components (Reog Ponorogo).
