Arahan Penataan Kompleks Candi Plaosan Sebagai Destinasi Wisata
No full textCandi Plaosan merupakan jenis objek daya tarik wisata berbasis pada hasil karya cipta manusia. Candi Plaosan merupakan sebuah kompleks bangunan kuno yang terbagi menjadi dua, yaitu Candi Plaosan Lor (lor dalam bahasa Jawa berarti utara) dan Candi Plaosan Kidul (kidul dalam bahasa Jawa berarti selatan).
Di dalam Rencana Tata Ruang Wilayah Kabupaten Klaten tahun 2011-2031 Candi Plaosan Lor dan Plaosan Kidul sudah ditetapkan menjadi Cagar Budaya dan menjadi satu kawasan wisata budaya, khususnya wisata candi. Komponen produk atraksi, aksesibilitas maupun amenitas tidak bisa terlepas untuk pengembangan suatu objek menjadi destinasi wisata, karena ketiga komponen ini dapat menjadi daya tarik suatu objek wisata. Pengelolaan ketiga komponen produk pariwisata yang baik akan berimplikasi positif terhadap citra objek wisata tersebut.
Banyak aktivitas wisata yang bisa dilakukan di Candi Plaosan Lor dan Candi Plaosan Kidul. Dengan diadakannya penataan Kompleks Candi Plaosan diharapkan bisa meningkatkan kenyamanan para pelaku wisata
STRATEGI PENGEMBANGAN DESA SEKITAR CANDI BOROBUDUR BERDASARKAN TIPOLOGI POTENSI KEPARIWISATAAN
Full text link The villages around Borobudur Temple have many tourism potentials that feel drowned by all the attention devoted to Borobudur Temple. Management of Borobudur temple with excessive business systems resulted in prosperity or poverty problems experienced by the people in the villages around Borobudur.
In relation with the determination of the development potential model for tourism, then this study adopts the dynamics of tourism development proposed by Miossec (Pearce 1989). Evolutionary model is based on four factors that may affect the development, namely; (1) resort; (2) transport; (3) tourist behavior; (4) attitudes of decision makers and population of receiving region. Factors that affect the “resort aspects†are the existence of recreation facilities and geographical location in the plains. Factors that affect the “transport aspects†are the existence of many modes of transportation and impassable by public transport routes. Factors that affect the “tourist behavior aspect†are the charter travelers type and leisure travelers type. Factors that affect the aspect of “attitudes of decision makers and population of receiving region†are the antagonism behavior of the public and the local officials that are less supportive of tourism
Tipologi Potensi Kepariwisataan Desa Sekitar Candi Borobudur
Full text linkDesa sekitar Candi Borobudur memiliki banyak potensi kepariwisataan yang dirasa tenggelam akibat semua perhatian ditujukan ke Candi Borobudur. Pengelolaan Candi Borobudur dengan sistem bisnis yang berlebihan mengakibatkan persoalan kesejahteraan atau kemiskinan yang dialami oleh masyarakat di desa–desa sekitar Candi Borobudur.Sehubungan dengan penentuan model pengembangan potensi obyek wisata, maka dalam studi ini mengadopsi dinamika pengembangan pariwisata yang dikemukakan oleh Miossec (Pearce 1989). Model evolusi didasarkan pada empat faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi pengembangan, yaitu; (1) resort; (2) transport; (3) tourist behaviour; (4) attitudes of decision makers and population of receiving region.Tipologi desa sekitar Candi Borobudur dipetakan berdasarkan potensi kepariwisataan dengan cara menganalisis temuan-temuan di lapangan kemudian dikompilasikan dengan teori maupun data lainnya. Tipologi potensi menghasilkan tipe desa berdasarkan teori Miossec

Akbar II as Pretender: A Study in Anarchy
No full textAkbar Shāh, son of the Mughal emperor Shāh 'Ālam II, was elevated to the throne of Delhi as pretender eighteen years previous to his accession as Akbar II, and money was struck in his name. The addition of another claimant to the dynastic list was communicated in a joint paper by Mr. S. H. Hodivala and myself, which appeared in the Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal for the year 1922, and to which I invite reference. I had found a copper coin of Aḥmadābād mint bearing the name of Akbar Shāh and date A.H. 1203, which made me conjecture whether Ghulām Qādir Khān, the “unspeakable Rohilla”, raised another prince to the Mughal throne after the puppet Bedār Bakht (A.H. 1202–3), who might or might not be identical with the Akbar Shāh, eldest surviving son of Shāh 'Ālam II, who succeeded his father in the regular way as Akbar II in the year A.H.. 1221 (A.D. 1806). I put the matter to Mr. Hodivala, a leading authority on Mughal history, and his reply was that “it has not yet been possible to find an absolutely complete and satisfactory solution of the problem connected with the Akbar Shāh coins of A.H. 1203, but there would seem to be fairly good grounds for answering the question in the affirmative”. The fullest account of the transactions which led to the deposition and blinding of Shāh 'Ālam II is in the 'Ibratnāmah (Book of Warning) of Faqīr Khairu-d-dīn Muḥammad, but this work closes soon after recounting the terrible cruelties practised on the Emperor Shāh 'Ālam and his family by the infamous Ghulām Qādir, whose atrocities the author describes at length.</jats:p

Akbar entre mundos : uma análise, leitura crítica e tradução da obra poética de Kaveh Akbar
Full text linkOrientador: Prof. Dr. Caetano Waldrigues GalindoDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal do Paraná, Setor de Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras. Defesa : Curitiba, 27/02/2025Inclui referênciasÁrea de concentração: Estudos LiteráriosResumo: Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo comentar criticamente a produção poética do escritor contemporâneo americano-iraniano Kaveh Akbar, autor de dois livros de poemas: Calling a Wolf a Wolf (2017) e Pilgrim Bell (2021). Akbar nasceu na cidade de Teerã, no Irã, em 1989 e na infância mudou para os Estados Unidos, onde vive até hoje. Neste trabalho, articulo a sua biografia de deslocamento com a sua produção literária, dentro dos limites da autoficção. Ademais, proponho uma análise aprofundada de como os temas, estipulados aqui como centrais na sua obra, "linguagem", "religião" e "memória", aparecem e se entrelaçam ao longo da sua produção poética. Também conecto a literatura de Akbar e sua trajetória biográfica com a discussão acerca da "literatura sem morada fixa", teorizada por Ottmar Ette (2018), problematizando assim as questões da literatura contemporânea e das suas fronteiras. E, por último, apresento a tradução de 23 poemas retirados de seus dois livros, a fim de possibilitar ainda mais a discussão sobre a sua obra poética, que é recente e, apesar de ter obtido grande destaque no cenário literário norte-americano, permanece pouco conhecida e não tinha sido, até o momento, traduzida no BrasilAbstract: This research aims to critically analyse the poetic production of the contemporary American-Iranian writer Kaveh Akbar. He is the author of two poetry books, Calling a Wolf a Wolf (2017) and Pilgrim Bell (2021). Akbar was born in Tehran, Iran, in 1989, and moved to the United States as a child, where he currently lives. In this research, I articulate his biography with his literary production, within the limits of autofiction. Also, I conduct a detailed analysis of how the three themes, defined here as the main themes in his poetry books, "language", "religion" and "memory", appear and are intertwined throughout his work. I also connect Akbar's literature and his biographical trajectory with the discussion about "literatures without a fixed abode", theorized by Ottmar Ette (2018), thus problematizing the issues of contemporary literature and its borders. And, finally, this dissertation presents my translation of 23 poems taken from Akbar's two books into Portuguese, in order to shine a light on his work and bring the discussion about it to Brazil. His publications are farrelly recent, and despite receiving great attention in the North American literary scene, they remain little known in Brazil and have not, to this date, been translated or published in the countr
