Q & A
What is historiography?
-Historiography is the study and writing of history, focusing on how historians write about past events. It involves analyzing historical sources and interpreting them to produce a narrative about the past.
How does the speaker illustrate historiography using an analogy?
-The speaker compares historiography to observing a house from different angles (front, back, left, right). Although it’s the same house, each perspective gives a different view, much like historians analyzing the same historical event from different viewpoints, leading to varying interpretations.
What is the difference between problem-oriented and non-problem-oriented historiography?
-Problem-oriented historiography focuses on solving specific historical problems or questions through research. Non-problem-oriented historiography, on the other hand, simply narrates historical events without addressing specific problems or questions.
Why is subjectivity considered problematic in historiography?
-Subjectivity in historiography can lead to biased interpretations of historical events. Historians aim for objectivity to ensure that their writings are based on accurate facts and not influenced by personal opinions or perspectives.
What are the key characteristics of traditional historiography?
-Traditional historiography is centered around royal families and kingdoms, often including elements of mythology and religious beliefs. It is typically palace-centric (istanasentris), magical (religiomagis), region-focused (regiosentris), ethnocentric (etnosentrisme), and politically driven (kepolitikansentrisme).
How did traditional historiography justify the authority of kings?
-In traditional historiography, kings were often portrayed as having mystical or divine powers, which were meant to legitimize their rule and ensure obedience from their subjects. This reinforced the power structure and prevented rebellion.
What is the main focus of colonial historiography?
-Colonial historiography, written during the colonial period, is typically Eurocentric, written by Europeans about their colonies. It often portrays colonized people as inferior and aims to justify colonial rule by glorifying the colonizers and denigrating local cultures.
What are the characteristics of colonial historiography?
-Colonial historiography is Eurocentric, written by Europeans, and often presents the colonized peoples as inferior or subjugated. It uses a critical historical method but primarily draws from European sources, and its purpose is to justify colonialism and maintain European dominance.
How did modern or national historiography differ from colonial historiography?
-Modern or national historiography, developed after Indonesia's independence, is written from an Indonesian perspective, emphasizing national identity and history. It uses critical methods, includes a multidimensional approach (sociology, economics, politics), and aims to represent the country's history from an Indonesian viewpoint.
What does a multidimensional approach in modern historiography entail?
-A multidimensional approach in modern historiography involves analyzing historical events from various perspectives, such as sociology, economics, politics, and culture, making the narrative more comprehensive and nuanced.
