Description

Ranah Minangkabau telah melahirkan tokoh dan surat kabar penting dalam sejarah pers nasional. Di antaranya adalah Rohana Koedoes, Lim Soen Hin, Dja Endar Moeda, Datuk Sutan Maharadja dan surat kabar Soenting Melaju, Pertja Barat, Al-Moenir, Oetoesan Melajoe. Sayang, kajian tentang perkembangan dunia pers di Sumatera Barat masih terbatas jumlahnya.Buku ini mengkaji terbitan awal surat kabar dan majalah yang terbit di ranah Minangkabau mulai pertengahan abad ke-19 hingga pertengahan abad ke-20. Namun, berbeda dengan para sarjana komunikasi atau jurnalistik, penulis mencoba mengkaji dengan sudut pandang lintas media mengenai keunikan terbitanterbitan Minangkabau, yang ditandai dengan keterkaitan antara kelisanan dan keberaksaraan. Dengan demikian, kajian ini menyodorkan dua hal penting baik bagi dunia pers nasional maupun bagi perkembangan kesastraan Indonesia. Pertama, kajian ini mengisi potongan-potongan yang selama ini kosong dalam mozaik perkembangan pers Nusantara yang masih didominasi oleh terbitan di Pulau Jawa. Kedua, yang lebih penting, kajian ini memperlihatkan, dua dunia yang selama ini seolah terpisah, antara tradisi keberaksaraan dan tradisi kelisanan, nyatanya sangat erat terkait. Kelisanan sebagai satu medium, memiliki sistem yang sama sekali berbeda dengan sistem yang terdapat dalam keberaksaraan. Kita tidak dapat melihat keunggulan kelisanan jika belum berhasil menorobos hadangan keberaksaraan. Surat kabar terbitan awal di Minangkabau memperlihatkan adanya interaksi dalam kedua medium ini melalui beberapa ciri kelisanan yang disampaikan oleh Walter J. Ong, ilmuwan komunikasi dan Amin Sweeney, peneliti terkemuka di bidang kesusastraan Melayu.

Excellent, though slightly flawed. The protagonist was compelling, though some subplots felt slightly overshadowed. I would highly recommend this to discerning readers.

A highly sophisticated read. The protagonist was compelling, though some subplots felt slightly overshadowed. A wonderful companion for a quiet weekend.
