Overview

The unit develops Indonesian linguistic and cultural proficiency through a focus on Indonesian writing and literature. The unit shows a particular concern with 'new' Indonesian writing but also positions this writing within its historical, cultural and literary context. Students engage with a range of literary texts and Indonesian language styles (e.g. youth, ethnic) and gain an understanding of why and how authors vary their language. Students also learn to critically analyze these Indonesian texts vis--vis literary and cultural conventions in Australia and beyond.
