The Tanjung Tirto sugar factory was one of 18 sugar factories that had been established in Yogyakarta during the Dutch East Indies administration. This factory was built in 1874 and was destroyed in the 1940s. The layout and development of the sugar factory from 1920-1940 were discussed in this study. Based on field observations, the emplacement of the factory buildings was not complete and only left a few housing buildings for the former factory employees. In addition, reconstruction through an old map is a way to find out the location and development of this factory. This study is important considering the lack of sugar factories in Yogyakarta which are the object of archeological research studies.

Pabrik Gula Gunungsari merupakan pabrik gula yang didirikan oleh Handels Vereeniging Amsterdam atau HVA pada awal abad ke-20 Masehi. Pabrik gula yang dimaksudkan untuk menjadi sister factory atau pabrik pendukung dari Pabrik Gula Jatiroto ini merupakan bagian dari rangkaian rencana percobaan HVA dalam merevolusi industri gula di Hindia Belanda. Penelitian bertujuan untuk menganalisis apakah terdapat kesalahan dalam bidang perencanaan pemilihan lokasi pembangunan pabrik gula yang berkaitan dengan berhentinya operasi pabrik gula ini. Metode penelitian bersifat deskriptif dengan penalaran induktif. Data yang dianalisis secara spasial diperoleh dari hasil survei arkeologi di Pabrik Gula Gunungsari dan kajian pustaka. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ketergantungan yang sangat tinggi akan besarnya modal usaha serta anggapan dapat terpenuhinya target yang terlalu ambisius menyebabkan pemilihan lokasi pembangunan pabrik menjadi suatu hal yang merugikan bagi HVA sendiri. Gunungsari Sugar Factory had been established by Handels Vereeniging Amsterdam or HVA in the early of 20th century. The factory which was intended to be a sister of the Jatiroto Sugar Factory was part of a series of HVA trial plans to revolutionize the sugar industry in the Dutch East Indies. This paper aims to analyze whether there is a failure when selecting the location of the factory related to the cessation of its own operation. This method used is descriptive with inductive reasoning. The data analized in spatial were obtained from the survey conducted at the Gunungsari Sugar Factory and literature review. The results show that high dependence on the amount of venture capital, and the assumption that ambitious targets can be achieved, have made the selection of a factory construction location become a major weakness for HVA.

                                                The study describes the life in colonial era using the theory of postcolonialism. This theory is used to reveal the facts of the story in a short story titled Tjerita Nji Paina by H. Kommer about representation and treatment of natives by colonialist society in those days. The short story of Tjerita Nji Paina brings the theme of domination and hegemony against indigenous and women. H. Kommer was one of the writers of the Dutch East Indies who often criticize the Dutch colonial government, especially against sugar businessmen. His works voiced opposition to the sugar businessman who oppressed the indigenous workers from that period. This research try to reveal the image of colonialism through the description of the figures contained in this story by using the theory of characterization. There are three figures described in this study. Each character represents superior and inferior binary opposition in colonial society in the Indies at that time. Furthermore, postcolonial theory from Edward Said used to reveal hegemony and domination of the natives by the Dutch colonials. From the theory used to the Tjerita Nji Paina text it is seen that hegemony and dominance got the legitimacy from the Dutch rulers who deceived the character Niti as subordinates at the sugar factory to hand over his daughters to become “nyai” or concubine to the character of Mr. Briot, his superior at the sugar factory. AbstrakPenelitian yang menggambarkan kehidupan di era kolonialial ini menggunakan teori poskolonialisme. Teori ini digunakan untuk mengungkapkan fakta cerita dalam cerita pendek berjudul Tjerita Nji Paina karya H. Kommer tentang representasi dan perlakuan terhadap pribumi oleh masyarakat kolonialis di masa itu. Cerpen Tjerita Nji Paina membawakan tema dominasi dan hegemoni terhadap pribumi dan terhadap perempuan. H. Kommer adalah salah satu penulis di zaman Hindia Belanda yang sering mengkritik pemerintah pendudukan Belanda, khususnya terhadap kaum pengusaha gula. Karya-karyanya menyuarakan perlawanan terhadap pengusaha gula yang menindas pekerja pribumi di masa itu  Penelitian ini mencoba mengungkap gambaran kolonialisme itu melalui deskripsi tokoh-tokoh yang terdapat dalam cerita ini dengan menggunakan teori penokohan. Ada tiga tokoh yang akan dideskripsikan dalam penelitian ini. Setiap tokoh merepresentasikan oposisi biner superior dan inferior dalam masyarakat kolonial di Hindia Belanda pada masa itu. Selanjutnya, digunakan teori poskolonial oleh Edward Said untuk melihat hegemoni dan dominasi terhadap kaum pribumi oleh kolonial Belanda. Dari teori yang digunakan terhadap teks Tjerita Nji Paina terlihat bahwa hegemoni dan dominasi mendapat legitimasi dari penguasa Belanda yang memperdaya tokoh Niti sebagai bawahan di pabrik gula untuk menyerahkan anak gadisnya menjadi nyai atau gundik dari tokoh Tuan Briot, atasannya di pabrik.

AbstractThe powerful concept of orientalism has undergone considerable refinement since Edward Said popularized the term with his eponymous book in 1978. Orientalism typically is presented as a totalizing process that creates polar oppositions between a dominating West and a subordinate East. U.S. orientalisms, however, reflect uniquely North American approaches to identity formation that include assimilating characteristics usually associated with the Other. This article explores the complex relationship among three individuals—U.S. composer Charles T. Griffes, Canadian singer Eva Gauthier, and German-trained Dutch East Indies composer Paul J. Seelig—and how they exploited the same Javanese songs to lend legitimacy to their individual artistic projects. A comparison of Griffes's and Seelig's settings of a West Javanese tune (“Kinanti”) provides an especially clear example of how contrasting approaches manifest different orientalisms. Whereas Griffes accompanied the melody with stock orientalist gestures to express his own fascination with the exotic, Seelig used chromatic harmonies and a chorale-like texture to ground the melody in the familiar, translating rather than representing its Otherness. The tunes that bind Griffes, Gauthier, and Seelig are only the raw materials from which they created their own unique orientalisms, each with its own sense of self and its own Javanese others.

It is common wisdom among the historians of the Dutch East Indies that everyone in the Dutch East India Company engaged in private trade. That is, ‘everyone’ traded in goods supposedly monopolized by the Company and ‘everyone’ abused his or her position to squeeze graft from the Company's trade. It was, supposedly, to get their hands on the private trade and graft that people joined the Dutch East India Company (VOC: Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie) in the first place. But back in the Netherlands the VOC's Board of Directors (the Heeren XVII) objected vociferously to private trade, which drained Company profits and shareholder revenue. To appease the Heeren XVII back at home, the various Governors-General and Councillors of the Indies (Raad van Indië), who represented the Heeren XVII in Asia, issued annual placards forbidding private trade while the High Court (Raad van Justitie) carried out infrequent desultory trials for private trade. But these prosecutions were inevitably doomed to failure, so the story goes, because everyone engaged in private trade would ‘cover’ for everyone else.

Storytelling brings into vivid focus the emotions and affects that different classes and races of people experienced in the imperial Dutch Indies island worlds. The storyteller explored in this article is Maria Dermoût (1888–1962), a mixed-race Dutch woman (Indo) who was born and raised on Java in the Dutch East Indies and who spent more than thirty years there. This article argues that Dermoût is a key writer for understanding affective economies, because she devotes significant time and effort in her fiction to fleshing out Native characters, something that few writers of her time did. The novella Toetie, one of Dermoût’s last works, uncovers Indies and Dutch attitudes toward race and color, moving her work from the genre of Indies Letters, or Dutch colonial literature, to that of postcolonial critique, with an exploration of forms of servitude, affect, and the social relations of her time.
