This article studies three manuscripts of the old Javanese Baratayuda now kept
in the Perpustakaan Nasional in Jakarta. One of them turns out to be a fragment
that had separated from one of the others. These originated in Java, which
raises the question about how they relate to the Javanese tradition of the
Baratayuda. This tradition differed from the Balinese tradition, both in wording
and metre. One of the manuscripts appears to be on a par with the Balinese
tradition, while the second one reflects common Javanese practice in its metrical
aspect but seems to by unique where the wording is concerned. In addition, the
latter is a small-size reproduction of a selected passage of the text. The conclusion
is that the so-called Merapi-Merbabu Collection to which both manuscripts
belong adds a new dimension to the study of the tradition of Old Javanese
literature |
