Abstract

The kebaya, when analyzed through the lens of song lyrics, emerges not just as a garment but as enveloping the transmission of ancestral wisdom, embodying a cultural philosophy that has the potential to enrich and guide contemporary lives. This research endeavors to bridge this knowledge gap by unraveling its philosophical values embedded in Sundanese song lyrics. The research is rooted in the philosophy of science, rationalism, empiricism, and scientific methods. The research uncovers a complex interplay of positive and negative values, symbolic meanings, and cultural contexts. The analysis underscores the interconnectedness of color symbolism, historical context, and cultural expressions in shaping the philosophical values associated with traditional attire in song lyrics. In contrast, the analysis uncovered a negative correlation between the red kebaya and depicted wounds or heartache in the song lyrics. The analysis highlights the importance of considering attire as symbolic elements within cultural expressions, moving beyond idealizations to embrace the complexities and realities of romantic experiences. Keywords: Sundanese Song Lyric; Kebaya; Ancestral Wisdom; Cultural Philosophy, Color Symbolism, Idealization in Culture.

Based on these problems, this paper aims to describe Tasikmalaya Batik. The method used in this paper is the descriptive method. The result of this paper is that the batik style in Tasikmalaya is influenced by the surrounding areas such as Garut, Cirebon, and others. However, separately it has its characteristics, namely the payung geulis and kelom geulis motifs.

Abstract

Local language as a cultural treasure is very different from the sociolinguistic perspective. Culture positions local languages as wealth and relics of human creativity and karsa in the past which are very meaningful and must be maintained and preserved. When correlated with the nature of culture, of course, local languages are included in a dynamic culture which means that they will experience language deconstruction and/or reconstruction. It is impossible if the language does not accept a concept or vocabulary from another language. This means that the language will experience development both in terms of the vocabulary it has or the concept and its use. The use of language must be positioned not only as a tool for communication but as a cultural result that must be maintained and preserved. This paper tries to explain how local language preservation occurs in Indonesia in the realm of culture and sociolinguistics.

Abstract

The facts show that Nusantara (Indonesia) culture keeps a lot of local wisdom values. One of the cultural forms of Nusantara culture owned by Sundanese people is traditional expression. In the Sundanese language, traditional expression implied eco-pedagogical values. This research will comprehensively expose the eco-pedagogic values in the traditional Sundanese expression. This research used descriptive method and documentation technique or bibliographical study. The data was analyzed by immediate constituent analysis and hermeneutic analysis techniques. This research data is a number of traditional idiomatic Sundanese languages containing eco-pedagogical value. The result of the research showed that Sundanese traditional idiomatic contained eco-pedagogical values that can be used as the basis for local wisdom. The value of eco-pedagogic refers to real-life values based on the natural environment perspective. The eco-pedagogical aspect refers to the natural environment, flora, and fauna. So, this suggests that traditional idiomatics contain words that relate to nature, flora and fauna. For example, humans should not be separated from nature (Lamun diarah supana, kudu dipiara catangna). From time to time human civilization evolves from dependening on the nature stage (Bisa ngindung ka usum ngabapa ka jaman), managing the nature stage, to controlling the nature stage (Bisa ngigelan jeung ngigelkeun jaman). The ecopedagogical values which become the repertoire of local wisdom refers to the natural environment, time, flora, and fauna education.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the concept of the Islamic Golden Age abbreviated as IGA, which is agreed upon by Western scholars and Muslim scholars and occurred in the history of Islamic culture and civilization. This research examines the possibility of grounding the characteristics and scientific paradigm of IGA in modern situations through several focuses of study, namely (1) the background of the development of the IGA concept, (2) the stage of development of the IGA concept, (3) the position of scientific activities in the map of cultural constellation (culture) and civilization (civilization) IGA, and (4) the characteristics and scientific paradigm of IGA. These four things are considered to be able to trigger the development stage of scientists, sciences, and inventions. The method used in conducting the research is descriptive-analytic of literature sources. This is done as a mapping of the entire overview of the IGA concept. This research approach is a history approach, both through a diachronic history approach and a synchronic history approach. In addition, it refers to the development of theories obtained deductively through literature studies. The basis of the research is then strengthened by conducting a form of inductive reasoning on the data obtained in this research in order to solve the final conclusions that are based on the data obtained.
