Perlawanan Terhadap Penjajahan dalam Puisi-Puisi Indonesia dan Korea

Penjajahan di muka bumi, seperti yang dialami Indonesia dan Korea telah mengakibatkan kerugian materiil dan non materiil. Akibat-a­kibat dari kolonialisme ini mendapat respon puitik dari para penyair Indonesia dan Korea yang tidak hanya menulis puisi namun juga bersentuhan dengan gerakan perlawanan untuk menggapai kemerdekaan. Artikel ini membahas resistensi terhadap penjajahan sebagaimana tercermin dalam puisi-puisi para penyair Indonesia dan Korea. Untuk meneliti puisi-puisi tersebut konsep sastra bandingan digunakan dan dielaborasi bersama dengan teori kolonialisme. Sumber data penelitian ini adalah antologi puisi Korea yang berjudul Puisi buat Rakyat Indonesia (terjemahan Chung Yong Rim tahun 2013) dan antologi puisi Indonesia Aku ini Binatang Jalang karya Chairil Anwar cetakan tahun 2015. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengalaman ketika dijajah Jepang membuat para penyair kedua negara ini melahirkan puisi-puisi yang secara tematis menggambarkan berbagai akibat kolonialisme dan semangat antipenjajahan yang lahir sebagai bentuk perlawanan. Abstract: Colonization as experienced by Indonesia and Korea brought about impacts on infrastructure and people of both countries. Those effects triggered Indonesian and Korean poets to give poetical response. These poets not only wrote poems but also involved in the movement in gaining independence. This article discusses the resistance toward colonization as represented in the poems by Indonesian and Korean Poets. The concept of comparative literature and colonialism are employed in this research. Sources of the data in this research are taken from the anthology of Korean poems entitled Puisi buat Rakyat Indonesia (translated into Indonesian by Chung Yong Rim in 2013) and anthology of Indonesian poems by Chairil Anwar entitled Aku ini Binatang Jalang published in 2015. The result of the research shows that colonization in Indonesia and Korea inspired the poets from these two colonized countries to write poems that delineate the impacts of colonization and spirit of anti colonization as the foundation of the resistence. Key Words: colonization, resistance, Indonesian and Korean poems

Nucleation during primary succession in the Canadian Rockies

A study of nucleation during primary succession was carried out on age sequences of communities at two sites in the Canadian Rocky Mountains: one at the Mount Robson moraines, British Columbia, the other at Southeast Lyell Glacier, Alberta. The study concentrated on the associations of species with the nitrogen-fixing plants Hedysarum boreale var. mackenzii at Mount Robson moraines and Dryas drummondii at Southeast Lyell Glacier because those plants might serve as nuclei for colonization by other species, thus facilitating succession. The data show that recruitment of later successional species is greater in patches of the two pioneer species, but the fact that recruitment takes place away from the plants also suggests that although there is nucleation, it is not necessary for succession at these sites. Key words: colonization, nitrogen fixation, nucleation, succession.

Biological control of Fusarium wilt of carnation with a nonpathogenic isolate of Fusarium oxysporum

The nonpathogenic isolate 618-12 of Fusarium oxysporum, wild type as well as a benomyl-resistant mutant, suppressed Fusarium wilt (F. o. f.sp. dianthi) in a susceptible cultivar of carnation by 80%. Two other nonpathogenic isolates had a similar effect. Suppression by isolate 618-12 occurred only when antagonist and pathogen were both added to the soil but not if they were introduced at a different location (one in the stem, the other in the soil). Thus systemic induced resistance could not be demonstrated. In treatments where isolate 618-12 and the pathogen were both introduced into the soil, fewer plants showed symptoms, disease severity was less, and colonization by the pathogen was less extensive than after inoculation with the pathogen alone. After soil inoculation, the nonpathogenic isolate 618-12 was recovered from the stem, sometimes at a height of 60 cm. Key words: colonization, carnation stem, soil.

Early patterns of revegetation of artificial earthen mounds in a northern mixed prairie

Patches of bare soil are thought to be important to the diversity and structure of North American grasslands. In 1987, 45 7.5-dm diameter artificial earthen mounds were built in low-, mid-, and high-prairie types to experimentally study the effects of mound location on patterns of mound revegetation. Stem densities and species abundance data were recorded every other week during the summers of 1987 and 1988. Few stems were recorded in 1987, and stem density more than quadrupled in 1988, but less than 1 % of all stems were seedlings. Grass stem densities were significantly higher on low-prairie mounds than mid- or high-prairie mounds and were concentrated in the outer perimeter of mounds. Forb stem densities did not vary significantly between prairie types or on-mound position. Mound species composition closely resembled surrounding vegetation, reflecting between and within prairie-type compositional variation. Key words: colonization, disturbance, earthen mounds, northern mixed prairie, patch, revegetation.
