Kata Kunci: Hikayat Kadiroen, Sastra Indonesia, Semaoen, Abstract The early 20th century is an important milestone in the history of Indonesian literature. During this period, literary works emerged that were later labeled "wild readings". One of the most important authors of these writings labeled as "wild reading" was Semaoen, with his Hikayat Kadiroen. Semaoen himself was a leftist thinker and the first chair of the Indonesian Communist Party in the 1920s. Hikayat Kadiroen is his novel that has an interesting form of storytelling. As a literary history research with data collection through literature study, this paper tries to explain the position and history of Semaoen's authorship in the midst of Indonesian literary history. It can be concluded then, in this article, that Semaoen and Hikayat Kadiroen are important in the treasury of modern Indonesian literature. In addition to marking the distinctiveness of resistance through literature in the early 20th century, Semaoen and his work are also interesting because of the style of storytelling that differs from some of the major literary works of his day, by showing the characteristics of Socialist-Realism works. keywords: Hikayat Kadiroen, Indonesian Literature, Semaoen,]]>
