A history of ancient and legendary Java in macapat verse, beginning with the Creation of the cosmos and extending to the reign of Sri Mahapunggung, king of Mendhangkamulan. The final section of the poem narrates the origin of rice cultivation. The poem comprises a fusion of the "left" nusc ipts, Vol. III (via the Hindu deities) and "right" (via the Islamic prophets) histories of the antecedents of Javanese kings. Poem opens in Dhangdhanggula, "Giyuhing tyas dennya ta manis ing, wasita geng genge kang kagungan." The second canto, in Asmarandana, begins, "Ywang Sukma ngandika aris, eh Ngijrakil awasena, ngarepira apa katon." The final canto of the main text is in Dhangdhanggula meter; it opens, "Sampun katur marang Ywang Pramesthi, lamun wiji-wiji sadayanya." The poem was composed by R.Ng. Sindusastra, Kaliwon in Rajaniten, a prominent court-poet patronized by Pakubuwana VII (r. 1830-58) before and after his accession to the throne, together with the pujongga R.Ng. Ronggawarsita. Ronggawarsita provided the narrative; Sindusastra cast that narrative into poetry (see poem's introductory verses for notes on the composition of the text and on its authors). Pakubuwana VII commissioned the poem on 16 Dulkangidah Dal 1767 (21 January 1840); sangkala, "gunung [7] obah [6] pi tung [7] nagara [1]." The date of the prototype MS from which the present MS was copied is found on MS. p. 527: 7 Sapar Alip 1779 (12 December 1850); sangkala, "rasa [9?; normally "6"]lungguh giri [7] sabdaning [7] narpati [1]" (1776 was a Be year, however). I.S.K.S. Pakubuwana VII commissioned R.Ng. Nitipura, Man tar am Kliwon Anon- anon, to compose a sequel to this 1850 prototype on Rebo Legi, wuku Mondhasiya, 25 Rabingulakir 1779 (27 February 1851); sangkala, "rinasa [9?; normally "6"] sapta [7] panditaning [7] ratu [1]" (the wuku, again, suggests a date of 1779 rather than 1776); see colophon, MS. p. 528. Of the planned sequel, whose title is Serat Salaredi dumugenipun Prabu Basurata Wiratha, only a beginning fragment is extant here. The fragment breaks off abruptly. The sequel, beginning on MS. p. 528, opens in Asmarandana, "Brataning tyas sru pinardi, Dyan Ngabehi Nitipura." Present manuscript witness was inscribed on commission of K.P. Hangabehi III (putra-dalem I.S.K.S. Pakubuwana IX, r. 1861-93) circa 1870. Karaton Surakarta Kadipaten script. Paper is foxed. Watermarks: VDL; PRO PATRIA EENDRAGT MAAKT MAGT.

Serat Babad Tanah Jawi
ð Ikhtisar & Catatan Filologis
A history of Java in macapat verse: Yogyakarta tradition. The narrative opens with the Creation of the cosmos and extends to late sixteenth-century Mataram at the time of Panembahan Senapati.

Serat Baron Sekedher
ð Ikhtisar & Catatan Filologis
Mythic history of the imagined founders of European rule in Java, Baron Seke[n]dher and Baron Sukmul. Macapat verse. This version of the poem treats the adventures of the heroes in Europe, that is, in nagari Spanyol and Welonda; it includes tales of their early imperial ventures prior to their colonial exploits in Java. Poem opens in Asmarandana, "Tekalanipun tinulis, wancine jam pitu enjang." The second canto, in Sinom begins Cinarita bayi ika, aneng tengahe ' The final canto, in Pangkur, opens, "Sayempraba kinembulan, ing ngakathah langkung prawireng jurit." According to internal evidence, poem forms a translation into Javanese verse of a Dutch original by the scribe or clerk of "Tuwan Aprup" Ouru tulis Tuwn Aprup ). "Aprup" is almost certainly a variant spelling of "Uprup" (Opperhoofd), the title of the highest colonial official at the Javanese court-cities Yogyakarta and Surakarta in the late 18th and early 19th centuries (up to 1808). Portions of the text are in Malay language, notably those passages that contain dialogue of non-Javanese/ foreign characters. The present manuscript was produced for rental and belonged to one Pak Kasebtam in "Kampung Krokan." The dating of the MS is problematic: it is dated 9 Besar 1802 (27 January 1874) and 23 Januwari 1873. This is an illuminated manuscript, with numerous fascinating color illustrations in wayang style spread throughout the text. The MS has suffered some water damage. Yogyakarta script. Watermarks: VDL; CONCORDIA RESPARVAE CRESCUNT. MS. leaves double-page numbered, 1-200. Java & Juridical Literature, HN 1 15 285

The original kekawin was composed early ll'h century by Empu Kanwa in the East Javanese kingdom of Kahuripan during the reign of Erlangga. For an edition, analysis, and Indonesian translation of the kekawin, see Kuntara Wiryamartana' s Arjunawiwaha. See also Zoetmulder, Kalangwan: 234-49, for an extensive discussion and synopsis of the original kekawin. The present modern Javanese version is normally attributed to I.S.K.S. Pakubuwana III (Poerbatjaraka, Kapustakan Djawi: 133-34), but the introductory verses of this manuscript witness state that it was R.Ng. Yasadipura I who composed the poetic translation on the sunan's commission. The poem is dated 25 Jumadilawal Be 1704 (21 June 1778); sangkala, "tasik [4] sonya [O] giri [7] juga [1]."

The text narrates the Pandhawa prince Werkudara' s quest for the Water of Life through his meeting with the miniature god, Dewaruci. This version is likely an early nineteenth-century pseudo-archaic rendering of y Yasadipura I's 1794 macapat version of the poem, possibly by his son R.Ng. Yasadipura II (1756-1844). The present sekar ageng version opens (lampah 25): "Purwaning gupita, duk Sang Wrekudara, puruhita sang resi, dhanyang Durna kinon." Second canto, in Sardhula wikridita, begins, "Samya prapta wau ing ngandeling westhi." Final canto (lampah 11) opens, "Tan kawarneng ngenu lampah Sang Sena." 3. Serat Dewaruci. Author unknown (MS. pp. 196-234). Suluk literature: Sufi song in macapat verse. The suluk relates Werkudara's quest for the Water of Life up through his meeting with Dewaruci.

The second canto, in Pangkur, begins, "Praktamu nedya sikara." The penultimate canto, in Kinanthi, opens, "Tan kena pisah iku." The final canto, in Sinom, begins, "Ujar wruh watakanira, sirna nirmalaning galih." 4. Serat Nitisurti = Serat Surtikanthi. Composed by Pangeran Karang Gayam (MS. pp. 235-58). Piwulang literature: didactic moralistic poem including lessons on statecraft. Kawi language in Dhangdhanggula meter. Poem opens, "Sarasa sinileming jaladri, bahni mahastra condra sengkala." Authorship of the poem is attributed to Pujongga Pajang Pangeran Karang-Gayam. Nineteenth-century Javanese texts date the poem 1513 <;:aka (CE 1591); sangkala, "bahni [3] maha [1] [a]stra [5] condra [1]." Poerbatjaraka, however, reads the sangkala differently, "jaladri [4] bahni [3] manastra [5] condra [1]," and hence dates the composition <;:aka 1534 (CE 1612); see Kapustakan Djawi: 102-05. 5. Serat Pepali Ki Ageng Sela. Attributed to Ki Ageng Sela (MS. pp. 258--62). Piwulang literature: the prohibitions p , that Ki Ageng Sela addressed to his descendants, who included the Mataram dynasts.

Text is dated 30 Sura Jimawal 1797 (23 May 1868). The final portion of the MS (pp. 264- 94) appears to be a later addition to the volume.
