À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Laine Berman shows how working-class Javanese women use conversation to construct identity and meaning within the rigid constraints of an hierarchical social order. She does so by uncovering the structures and functions of conversational narratives uttered within natural social networks. In particular, she focuses on identifying the silences, the "unsaid", and reveals both the structure and function of silence in terms of its reference to local meaning. The force of the Javanese language as used in everyday interactions is shown to be an extremely potent philosophical entity as well as a means of social control. Thus, this book will contribute to our understanding of the social consequences of language use, to the linguistic knowledge of Indonesia and Java, and to such basic linguistic issues as narrative structure and function, speech levels and styles, and indexicality features.

"...Berman's book is one of the most useful and original contributions tounderstanding Javanese society, particularly in terms of explaining how modelsof social organisation imply power relationships...[It] offers a refreshing andnecessary insight into the most fundamental aspect of a culture--that ofJava--which, extrapolated, is the guiding principle of an imposed stateculture--that of Indonesia."--Asian Studies Association of Australia, "...Bermans work is thorough and detailed and it rewards close reading. Indonesianist academics and more general anthropologists and linguists should all find this book essential reading. It is a strong work and will undoubtedly find its well deserved place within the canon of texts on Indonesia."--Inside Indonesia "...Berman's book is one of the most useful and original contributions to understanding Javanese society, particularly in terms of explaining how models of social organisation imply power relationships...[It] offers a refreshing and necessary insight into the most fundamental aspect of a culture--that of Java--which, extrapolated, is the guiding principle of an imposed state culture--that of Indonesia."--Asian Studies Association of Australia, "...Bermans work is thorough and detailed and it rewards close reading.
