Muslims and Matriarchs

Muslims and Matriarchs is a history of an unusual, probably heretical, and ultimately resilient cultural system. The Minangkabau culture of West Sumatra, Indonesia, is well known as the world's largest matrilineal culture; Minangkabau people are also Muslim and famous for their piety. In this book, Jeffrey Hadler examines the changing ideas of home and family in Minangkabau from the late eighteenth century to the 1930s. Minangkabau has experienced a sustained and sometimes violent debate between Muslim reformists and preservers of indigenous culture. During a protracted and bloody civil war of the early nineteenth century, neo-Wahhabi reformists sought to replace the matriarchate with a soci...

Global Muslims in the Age of Steam and Print

The second half of the nineteenth century marks a watershed in human history. Railroads linked remote hinterlands with cities; overland and undersea cables connected distant continents. New and accessible print technologies made the wide dissemination of ideas possible; oceangoing steamers carried goods to faraway markets and enabled the greatest long-distance migrations in recorded history. In this volume, leading scholars of the Islamic world recount the enduring consequences these technological, economic, social, and cultural revolutions had on Muslim communities from North Africa to South Asia, the Indian Ocean, and China. Drawing on a multiplicity of approaches and genres, from commodity history to biography to social network theory, the essays in Global Muslims in the Age of Steam and Print offer new and diverse perspectives on a transnational community in an era of global transformation.

Kajian Lintas Media

"""Ranah Minangkabau telah melahirkan tokoh dan surat kabar penting dalam sejarah pers nasional. Di antaranya adalah Rohana Koedoes, Lim Soen Hin, Dja Endar Moeda dan surat kabar Soenting Melaju, Datuk Sutan Maharadja dan surat kabar Oetoesan Melajoe, Pertja Barat, Al-Moenir. Sayang, kajian tentang perkembangan dunia pers di Sumatera Barat masih terbatas jumlahnya. Buku ini mengkaji terbitan awal surat kabar dan majalah yang terbit di ranah Minangkabau mulai pertengahan abad ke-19 hingga pertengahan abad ke-20. Namun, berbeda dengan para sarjana komunikasi atau jurnalistik, penulis mencoba mengkaji dengan sudut pandang lintas media mengenai keunikan terbitanterbitan Minangkabau, yang ditanda...
