material object. The research is done by using the postmodern parody theory of Linda

parody of Dara Jingga or Bundo Kanduang myth and Pamalayu history text. Parody
in this script play is a media used by the author to give a critical response toward
power deviation which is done by power regime and its influence to the social system
in Minangkabau. The criticisms toward power that are being passed on among others:
criticizing authoritarian government form which prevents the freedom of expressing
opinion, criticizing the power holder that monopolizes history, and criticizing power
that is carried on with violence.

criticisms to some changes happening in the social system of Minangkabau. Several
criticisms to those changes are for example: questioning the truth of Minangkabau's
history dimness, criticizing the shifting role of custom chief, the kinship system
performing and the sapping female position in Minangkabau

Evan Dara
No full textEvan Dara appears to be a pseudonym used by an unknown US author, who has published three novels and a play since 1995. There is almost no conclusive information about Dara, aside from the fact that he is probably male, allegedly resides in France, and started a self-publishing venture, Aurora Publishers, to publish three of his works. Dara's anonymity has had both positive and negative effects on his authorial career; while it may have scared off traditional publishers, it has also fueled online literary intrigue among a cult of devoted readers. He remains best known for his first novel, The Lost Scrapbook (1995), which employs postmodern literary techniques to examine a community affected by ecological disaster
