Dutch scholar A. Teeuw chronicles the emergence of a national literary identity, tracing how Indonesian authors navigated the complex intersections of colonial influence, indigenous tradition, and the revolutionary spirit of independence. With academic rigor and genuine enthusiasm for the subject, the text details the major literary movements, key authors, and defining works that shaped a distinctly Indonesian voice in prose, poetry, and drama. Teeuw illustrates how language itself — particularly the adoption of Bahasa Indonesia — became a powerful instrument of cultural and political self-determination. An indispensable reference for students and scholars of Southeast Asian literature and postcolonial studies, this authoritative volume remains a foundational text in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48839394820315,"sku":"2026770002150-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/a12429d5-10f0-4e87-aea5-b6efa8df50ea.png?v=1780561609","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770002150-secondhand-modern-indonesian-literature","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
