Poetry of the Bima Kingdom as a Counter-Narrative to Colonialism, Scientism, Anthropocentrism and Radicalism
Get PDFThis article discusses Syair Kingdom Bima, a 19th-century Malay poem from the Bima Sultanate, as a counter-narrative that challenges dominant discourses of colonialism, scientism, anthropocentrism, and radicalism. Through a new historicism and intertextuality approach, this article examines the narrative strategy of the Bima Kingdom Syair in guiding power dynamics. By focusing on the internal conflict and ethical complexity within the Bima Sultanate, the poem implicitly rejects colonial narratives. This emphasizes the importance of local knowledge systems and the importance of ethical leadership rooted in Islamic principles. Bima Kingdom Poetry's depiction of the relationship between humans, nature and God is in sharp contrast to the Western scientific and anthropocentric view which prioritizes human power over nature. The poem interprets the eruption of Mount Tambora as being caused by a cosmic imbalance caused by human actions (the Sultan of Tambora's violation of the moral and spiritual order). By advocating spiritual transformation and moral introspection, Syair Kingdom Bima offers a solution to radicalism
Physical Means and Trading Network of Onrust in the 17th and 18th Centuries
Get PDFThis research aims to examine the physical facilities and trade networks on Onrust Island in the 17th-18th centuries. Onrust Island is a small island located in Batavia Bay (Jakarta) and has an important role in the history of trade in the Dutch East Indies. This research uses historical research methods through heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The research results show that Onrust has adequate physical facilities to support VOC trading operations, such as shipyards, warehouses, and commodity processing facilities. In the 17th century, Onrust also became Batavia's first defense center. In the 18th century, ship repair activities at Onrust began to decline due to the VOC's financial difficulties. However, Onrust remained an important post in the VOC trade network in the archipelago. This island became a stopover for the VOC trade fleet from various ports in Java and its surroundings. Products such as spices, wood, salt and others stopped at Onrust before being distributed further by the VOC. Thus, Onrust played an integral role in the VOC's maritime trade network in the archipelago in the 17th and 18th centuries through the infrastructure and logistics support it provided

Development of E-Assessment Instruments for Assessing Metacognition Skills of Students in The Research Methodology Course
Get PDFThis research is focused on the creation of a valid and dependable tool designed for the assessment of students' metacognitive abilities within the context of the Research Methodology course. The research methodology employed for this research follows the Research and Development (R&D) framework outlined by Mardapi, which encompasses ten distinct phases. The participants involved in this research comprised four lecturers responsible for instructing research methodology courses and a total of 61 students who were enrolled in these courses. The data collected for this research consisted of quantitative data acquired through expert validation questionnaires and trial instruments. Data analysis was conducted employing quantitative techniques, specifically utilizing Microsoft Excel and employing the Item Response Theory (IRT) Politomus data analysis approach within the R programming environment. The research outcomes indicated that the instrument employed to evaluate students' metacognitive skills in the research methodology course achieved a valid status as per expert evaluations, meeting the criteria for goodness. It was found to be valid in terms of the response distribution across all 24 items, and collectively, the instrument items were deemed capable of offering insights into the state of the test participants (respondents) by more than 85%. Moreover, the instrument demonstrated a very high level of reliability as 0,94
The Use of Andesite Rocks in the Hindu-Buddhist Kingdoms in Indonesia
Get PDFThis research aims to explain the reasons for choosing andesite igneous rock as building material from Hindu-Buddhist kingdoms. The research method in this article uses four stages of historical research, namely; heuristic techniques, source criticism techniques, interpretation techniques, and historiography techniques. Data sources were collected through primary and secondary data. The four stages of this historical research method together with secondary primary data are then analyzed using a combination of historical geography to obtain an in-depth study. The results of the research illustrate that the use of andesite igneous rock was used for temple buildings, statues, relief sculptures, and writing from Pallawa to Ancient Java. The choice of andesite igneous rock during the Hindu-Buddhist kingdom was based on the quality of the rock. The quality of this andesite rock has high artistic value, gray in color, hard, chemical composition and specific texture that can be carved. The chemical composition is 57% -63% silica content with 6% alkali metal oxide content. The silica content of andesite igneous rock makes this rock material resistant to weathering
Problem Case Historiography as an Alternative Learning Strategy to Train Historical Thinking Skills in The Merdeka Curriculum
Get PDFThe Merdeka Curriculum, which has just been implemented in Indonesia, still faces many obstacles in its implementation, especially in history subjects. This is because there are differences in the content and achievement of skills in the Merdeka Curriculum and the previous curriculum, namely the 2013 curriculum. One of the skill strands in history subjects is historical thinking skills. Based on the literature review conducted by the researchers, few learning strategies can be used specifically to train Historical Thinking Skills. For this reason, this research was conducted to provide alternative learning strategies that teachers can use to train students' Historical Thinking Skills. The method used in this research is the library method. The results of this study are in the form of a new learning strategy syntax called “Problem Case Historiography”. The use of this learning strategy is expected to be able to train students' Historical Thinking Skills
History of the Sitompul Clan in Huraba Village, South Tapanuli Regency (1803-2023)
Get PDFThe Sitompul clan is one of the Toba Batak clans that originally settled in Tarutung, North Tapanuli. As a result of the Padri War (1803-1838), a conflict between the Padri and the Minangkabau indigenous people which then spread to the Batak region, the Sitompul clan migrated to various places, including to Huraba Village, South Tapanuli Regency. This research aims to analyze the migration process of Sitompul Clan to Huraba Village and the Islamization process in Huraba Village. This research uses the historical method with four stages: heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. Data collection was conducted through document study, field observation, and in-depth interviews. The results show that the migration of the Sitompul clan to Huraba village occurred in several waves, starting in the early 19th century as a direct result of the Padri War. The process of Islamization in Huraba Village took place gradually, starting with the entry of Muslim traders and continued with the spread of Islamic teachings by local religious figures. This Islamization brought significant changes in the social and cultural structure of the Sitompul clan community in Huraba village. This article contributes to a deeper understanding of the dynamics of migration and cultural transformation in the context of local history, as well as enriching insights into the local wisdom of the Batak people
