Abstract Indonesia is the country with the largest archipelago in the world, with a total of seventeen thousand islands. The term ‘maritime nation’ has actually been surging through stories of local wisdom (culture), but during the colonial period, the term lost its original significance and Indonesia came to be treated as if it were an agrarian country. This paper shows that Indonesian maritime society contains various inherited values of religiosity, including myths, legends, folklore, and oral traditions about marine cosmology. Folklore, myths, and legends have an important position in society, not only referring to cultural traditions but also containing religious or theological values that are closely related to the identity of the Indonesian nation. This paper studies the mythical figure of Nyi Roro Kidul who is considered the sea guardian. The legend surrounding the figure of Nyi Roro Kidul can serve as an important trope to develop a contextual Javanese eco-pneumatology [Holy Spirit] and help address some of the contemporary ecological issues.

AbstrakIndonesia menempati urutan ke-74 dari 79 peserta pada tes PISA yang didalamnya memuat tes literasi. Hal ini berbanding terbalik dengan kenyataan bahwa Indonesia kaya akan keberagaman termasuk keberagaman bahasa sebagai dasar literasi. Keberagaman bahasa yang memuat folklor di dalamnya nyatanya mulai tergerus zaman. Pergeseran budaya menjadikan anak-anak tidak lagi mendengar ataupun mengetahui legenda (folklor) dari masing-masing wilayahnya. Hal ini menjadi pemantik peneliti untuk mengangkat Kembali folklor untuk lebih dalam dideskripsikan struktur dan fungsinya dalam sastra lisan. Peneliti mengambil legenda Joko Satriyan dari desa Sadang, Kec. Jekulo, Kab. Kudus dengan harapan terdapat manuskrip legenda tersebut untuk dapat ditelisik, dibaca, terjaga, dan tersimpan warisan budaya Jawa. Metode dalam penelitian ini adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan pendekatan metode etnografi. Data penelitian diperoleh menggunakan Teknik observasi, wawancara, perekaman, transkrip, terjemahan, dan disertai dengan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian analisis struktur naratif menggunakan teori ala Maranda terdapat 8 terem dan fungsi legenda dari teori ala William R Bascon adalah empat fungsi yang tersirat dalam pembentukan cerita. Dari hasil penelitian membuktikan bahwa cerita Joko Satriyan masuk ke dalam unsur legenda yang memiliki terem dan fungsi sebagai folklor yang harus dilestarikan keberadaannya, salah satunya melalui penyimpanan manuskrip dalam riset ini.Kata kunci: struktur, fungsi, folklor AbstractIndonesia ranks 74th out of 79 participants in the PISA test which includes a literacy test. This is inversely proportional to the fact that Indonesia is rich in diversity, including the diversity of languages as the basis for literacy. The diversity of languages that contain folklore in them is starting to erode with time. The cultural shift made children no longer hear or know the legends (folklore) of their respective regions. This has become a trigger for researchers to bring back folklore to deeply describe its structure and function in oral literature. Researchers took the legend of Joko Satriyan from the village of Sadang, Kec. Jekulo, Kab. Kudus with the hope that there will be a manuscript of the legend so that it can be investigated, read, preserved, and stored as Javanese cultural heritage. The method in this study is descriptive qualitative with an ethnographic method approach. Research data were obtained using observation techniques, interviews, recordings, transcripts, and translations, and accompanied by documentation. The results of the analysis of the narrative structure using Maranda's theory show that there are eight terms and the functions of the legend from William R Bascon's theory are the four functions implicit in story formation. The results of the research prove that Joko Satriyan's story includes elements of legend which have a term and function as folklore that must be preserved, one of which is through the storage of manuscripts in this research.

Understanding how stories of human-elf marriages are portrayed is very crucial because such stories can influence the public’s opinion regarding people who claim to have such relationships. Therefore, a study on human-elf marriage as a formula in popular fantasy contributes to a better understanding of the function and role of popular fantasy in society. Using Cawelti’s theory of formula (Cawelti, 1977) as starting point, this study tries to see how human-elf marriage as a formula may be portrayed differently in English fantasy works and popular Javanese stories. Several English fantasy works are presented as data for this study, along with Javanese stories collected from social media, television, and the box office that have strong influences from urban legends. Stories from the Arabian peninsula are also considered for their strong affinity to the predominantly Islamic society of Java. Miles & Huberman (1992) qualitative methods are applied interactively and continuously to optimize the data collection and analysis. The analysis shows that the portrayal of marriages between humans and Other beings, such as elves, fairies, or jinns, hugely depends on the manner of the depiction of Other beings involved. The elves of Tolkien are strongly associated with the heavenly light that humans long for, while the jinns in the Islamic and Javanese traditions are generally considered bearers of turmoil in human society. Consequently, the human-elf marriages of Tolkien are celebrated. All kinds of contact between humans and the jinns, however, fairy-like they may be, are avoided and even condemned in Javanese stories. This conclusion confirms that the formula in popular fantasy serves as both an endorsement or a condemnation of certain notions a particular society upholds.

Abstract: Every group of people, ethnicity, or tribe must possess cultural richness in the form of medical tradition. In the scientific world, this tradition is called ethnomedicin. In terms of therapy, etnomedicin is divided into two, namely herbal therapy and zoo theraphy. Herbal therapy is an attempt to treat an ethnic group using plant materials, while zoo theraphy is a traditional treatment using ingredients from animals. This research determines the object in the form of Javanese manuscripts which contains knowledge about zoo practices in Javanese manuscripts. The approach used is an exploratory approach by trying to make a qualitative description. In addition, this study also uses an ethnographic research approach to see animal medicine practices in the community. Treatment with zoo therapy is generally related to myths, rituals and legends. In general, manuscripts date from the 19th century, especially the Mataram Mataram era. One of the manuscripts that has become the source of the implementation of zoo theraphy is the Suluk Tambangraras script, also known as Serat Centhini. Other sources include primbon manuscripts, and practices of therapy zoos in the community. --- Abstrak: Setiap kelompok masyarakat, etnis, atau suku pasti memliki kekayaan budaya berupa tradisi pengobatan.

Before my performance of wayang golek menak (a rod-puppet performance of Islamic legends) Pak Narto, my teacher in Central Java, was trying to dress me for the role of a dhalang, the puppeteer of a wayang. He tugged down on the batik sarong, already wrapped low about my waist, and pulled at the dress hat and jacket that pinched my head and bound my shoulders, as if he could have concealed that I was anything more or less than a large American in Javanese dress. That evening, in the village of Gombong on the South coast of Central Java, I would perform a demonstration of wayang golek menak. I had only arrived a few months before to undertake my research with Pak Narto and was hastily prepared to perform for a celebration surrounding the wedding of his wife's cousin. After my brief demonstration, there would be an all night wayang performance by Pak Narto's brother, Pak Kuswanto.
