Serat Babad Majapahit Wekasan dumugi Mataram-Senapati
ð Ikhtisar & Catatan Filologis
A history of medieval java in macapat verse (15th -late 16th c.). Poem begins in Dhangdhanggula metre: "Tyas srengkara pamedharing karsi." The babad treats the histories of Majapahit, Demak, Pajang, and early Mataram. Poem begins with the preliminary negotiations for the marriage of Prabu Brawijaya Wekasan (the final king of Majapahit) to Putri Cempa (Princess of Cempa). MS. dated Setu Pahing, 22 Sapar Be 1808 (15 February 1879), sangkala: "pandhita [8?] nir [0] esthi [8] aji [1]." Note: "7" is the more normal numerical equivalent of "pandhita"; 22 Sapar Dal 1807 fell on Selasa Pon, 26 February 1878. According to notes inscribed on p. iii, this copy was made from a prototype MS. belonging to Hamengkubuwana V (r. 1822-55) after that MS. had come into the hands of the late Sultan's son K.B.P.H. Suryaninglaga (Suryengalaga). In the text of the poem, there are, however, ambiguous notes indicating that the poem might rather have been composed by Suryengalaga himself (see canto I: verses 2-3, pp. 1-2). The scribe, one Atmaharja, was evidently a servant of this prince "dasihira Gusti Suryenglaga" who had been ordered to read the text by the prince. The scribe, now in a piteous state of mourning, laments that the prince has "vanished" (mugsyeng) from the realm. Having been the central figure in an abortive rebellion at the Yogyakarta Karaton, Suryenglaga was exiled to Menado in April 1883; that was, however, four years after the probable 1879 date of this MS. writing. For more on this prince, see A.L. Kumar, "The 'Suryengalaga Affair' of 1883 and its Successors: Born Leaders in Changed Times." BKI 138 (1982), pp. 251-284. Yogyakarta cursive script. Some leaves of MS. are water damaged.

Suryenglaga (K.B.P.H. Suryaninglaga) was a son of Hamengkubuwana V and the leader of an abortive rebellion in 1883. This MS. is a (partial) copy of a Yogyakarta MS. dated Setu Pahing, 22 Sapar Be 1808 (15 February 1879), sangkala: "pandhita [8?] nir [0] esthi [8] aji [1]," that is, KS 25A.

Poem was composed in the early nineteenth century upon commission of the Crown Prince of Surakarta (the future Pakubuwana V). Composition is probably that of R. Ng. Yasadipura II. This version closes with a didactic-moralistic message concerning the reading of the poem (see pp. 207 ff.). Copy is of a prototype MS. dated 5 Rabingulakir Dal 1791 (30 September 1862).

Poem is usually attributed to R. Ng. Yasadipura II; see Pigeaud, Literature of Java, vol. I, p. 258. However, Sastrasoewignja in his article "De Waarde van de Serat Djakapangasih" in Djawa XIII (1933), pp. 130-35, doubts that attribution on stylistic grounds. He notes that Surakarta oral tradition credits Pangeran Cakradiningrat, a grandson of Pakubuwana VII (sic) [that is, VI and son-in-law of Pakubuwana VI], with the poem. I am grateful to Alan Feinstein for bringing this reference to my attention. Copy by Widasupama dated 1 August 1928. Scribal style from the court of Pakubuwana X.

Serat Semaresthibrata
ð Ikhtisar & Catatan Filologis
Didactic-moralistic text in macapat verse. 48 cantos. The teachings, addressed to the poet's descendants, are framed by apologies tendered by the poet (amba) to his superior (paduka). The teachings, which comprise a moral handbook for the late nineteenth-century priyayi, treat a wide range of topics, including: Islamic ethics and theology; child development and the education of children, trade and business practices; horsemanship; etiquette (jagong, priyayi family life, and court etiquette and service). The latter half of the poem (p. 186 ff.) comprises a parable on royal government in which a "nation" of birds war among themselves, form a proper kingdom under a just king, prosper, and then decline into moral decadence, finally to fall to utter destruction. The text has a marked late nineteenth-century flavor, and could not date before the late 1850s. Portions of the poem are rendered in Melayu. There are references to the police (pulisi) and to poor relief and the generosity of "Kangjeng Gupermen." The teachings are said to be those handed-down through the Kadilangu family. Poem opens with the poet's (partial?) genealogy, beginning with Sunan Kalijaga to that legendary fifteenth-century wali's fourth generation descendant, "Panembahan Wijil." The poet identifies himself as "pun..." with the assistance (sabiyantu) of R. Adipati Yudanagara, Bupati of Rembang (a fifth-generation descendant of Sunan Ngampel-denta according to the text). Note: I have no knowledge of a Bupati of Rembang named "Yudanagara." Cursive (Surakarta?) script.
