Exploring Culture Inside and Out: National Seminar by UGM’s American Studies Graduate Program and UNAIR’s Literature and Cultural Studies Graduate Program

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGs 10: Reduced InequalitiesSDGs 16: Peace justice and strong institutionsSDGs 4: Quality Education Monday, 26 May 2025

Yogyakarta, 23/5/2025 – The national seminar held on May 16, 2025, marked the conclusion of the academic visit series by the Student Association of the Literature and Cultural Studies Graduate Program at Universitas Airlangga (UNAIR) to Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), hosted by the American Studies Student and Alumni Association (ASSAA). On this occasion, the seminar featured three speakers: Glory Emanuelle, a graduate student from UGM’s American Studies program, and Ahmad Faizin and Athaya Belia, graduate students from UNAIR’s Literature and Cultural Studies program.

In this session, each speaker presented various perspectives linked to culture and the identity of certain groups. For example, Ahmad Faizin’s presentation focused on the morning coffee-drinking culture in the Magelang area, which has become part of the identity of the community practicing it. Meanwhile, Athaya Belia’s presentation focused on the pop culture of metal music, specifically the Baddiecore genre, and concluded that fan communities can also evolve due to a shared sense of belonging. In the final presentation, Glory Emanuelle discussed the relationship between media and the representation of Native American tribes on the TikTok platform. Although each presentation brought a different perspective and focus, they shared a common theme: culture, media, and individual identity are interconnected and shape communities.

This collaboration between UNAIR’s Literature and Cultural Studies graduate students and UGM’s American Studies graduate students not only opens up opportunities to better understand how both local and global cultures influence and shape communities, but also builds a bridge for future collaboration between UNAIR and UGM.

Contemporary American Issue: American Studies Conference and Freedom of Speech in the Contemporary American Era

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGs 10: Reduced InequalitiesSDGs 16: Peace justice and strong institutionsSDGs 4: Quality Education Thursday, 22 May 2025

Yogyakarta, May 22, 2025 — On May 9, 2025, the American Studies Program successfully held a seminar titled Contemporary American Issues at the Soegondo Building 70X.

In addition to providing the audience with an opportunity to hear insights from Prof. Gade, the seminar also featured Achmad Munjid, Ph.D. as the second speaker, who delivered a talk on “Contestation on Freedom of Speech in the US Today.”

In the second session of the seminar, the discussion focused on how the concept of freedom of speech in the United States has significantly shifted—so much so that it appears citizens are only free to express their opinions as long as those opinions align with the voice of the government. This trend can be observed in various aspects of American society today.

The presentation also explored how the decline of democracy amidst the rise of globalization is driven by the emergence of anti-globalization sentiments in different parts of the world, resulting in fragmentation among individuals, including within the United States.

Beyond addressing current issues, the discussion also delved into broader events unfolding in the U.S. today and the underlying causes behind them. Examining this issue more deeply reveals that many of the changes occurring in America today are closely tied to the historical foundations of the nation.

Despite the many contradictions present in contemporary America, this discussion encouraged participants to think more critically about social equality, freedom of speech, and government transparency—both nationally and globally—as Indonesian citizens engaging with global discourse.

Weaving Harmony in the Romance of Svara: The Story of Oh Yeonju and Cultural Exchange on the Stage of Gadjah Mada Chamber Orchestra

HEADLINESINCULSNews ReleaseSDGs 10: Reduced InequalitiesSDGs 16: Peace justice and strong institutionsSDGs 17: Partnerships for the GoalsSDGs 4: Quality Education Thursday, 22 May 2025

Yogyakarta, 08/05/2025 – Amidst the vibrant melodies of bowed strings and profound harmonies, a deeply meaningful cultural event unfolded in “Mini Concert #18: Romansa Svara (Romance of Sound)”. This classical music performance by the Gadjah Mada Chamber Orchestra (GMCO) was held on Thursday, 8 May 2025 at Taman Budaya Yogyakarta. In the elegant atmosphere that enveloped the stage that evening, one figure stood out: Oh Yeonju, a student from South Korea currently studying Indonesian at INCULS, the Faculty of Cultural Sciences at Universitas Gadjah Mada.  

More than just a guest or spectator, Oh Yeonju took part as a member of the orchestra, playing the violin with passion and dedication. Alongside young musicians from across Universitas Gadjah Mada and Indonesia, she performed expressive compositions in a concert that showcased not only musical beauty but also reflected a profound cultural encounter.  

Oh Yeonju’s participation in this concert embodied the spirit of inclusivity and cross-border learning. In this collaborative artistic space, differences in background were not barriers but bridges connecting hearts and minds. Music, as a universal language, brought together individual uniqueness in a harmonious unity, creating a learning ecosystem that touched both intellect and emotion.  

“Romansa Svara” was not merely an aesthetic experience but also carried important values of cooperation, mutual respect, and growth in diversity. This was a stage where international friendships were woven naturally, not through diplomatic discussions but through notes flowing in perfect rhythm.  

Oh Yeonju’s story on the GMCO stage served as a reminder that true education extends beyond the classroom. It thrives in interaction, in the courage to try new things, and in openness to embracing differences. UGM, through platforms like GMCO and INCULS, continues to foster inspiring spaces for both local and international students to collectively shape a more harmonious, empathetic, and meaningful world.  

Amidst the thunderous applause that night which resonated as more than just musical appreciation there was a clear message: art can transcend geographical and cultural boundaries, offering hope for a more harmonious world. And among the performers, a South Korean student became part of this beautiful story, a vital note in the symphony of togetherness known as “Romansa Svara”.

HISKI Organizes Academic Writing Workshop to Commemorate the Centenary of Pramoedya Ananta Toer

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGs 16: Peace justice and strong institutionsSDGs 4: Quality Education Thursday, 22 May 2025

Yogyakarta, 9 May 2025 — To commemorate the 100th anniversary of Pramoedya Ananta Toer, Himpunan Sarjana-Kesusastraan Indonesia (HISKI) held an Academic Writing Workshop titled “100 Years of Pramoedya Ananta Toer.” The event was conducted in a hybrid format—offline at the Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Universitas Gadjah Mada, and online via Zoom Meeting—bringing together literary scholars from various higher education institutions across Indonesia.

This initiative served not only as a tribute to Pramoedya’s intellectual legacy but also as an academic platform for scholars and writers to engage with his literary works through a wide range of theoretical approaches. As part of this framework, HISKI facilitated the workshop as a forum for academic writing, enabling participants to develop and present scholarly articles that critically examine Pramoedya’s oeuvre from multiple perspectives.

The event was officially opened by Prof. Dr. Novi Anoegrajekti, M.Hum., Chairperson of HISKI, who underscored the strategic role of academic publishing in both scholarly and cultural domains. She noted that HISKI has consistently contributed to collaborative publications such as Sastra Pariwisata, Antologi 222, 100 Years of A.A. Navis, and Antologi 122, reflecting the collective academic engagement of the association.

“We are delighted by the enthusiastic response to this initiative. To date, we have received a total of 136 abstracts from prospective contributors,” stated Prof. Novi. She further emphasized that Pramoedya’s commitment to writing remained unwavering, even during his periods of imprisonment. “Physical confinement never silenced Pram’s voice. His work exemplifies the enduring power of ideas and writing beyond physical limitations.”

Following the opening remarks, Prof. I Nyoman Darma Putra, M.Litt., Ph.D. from Universitas Udayana, representing the editorial team, highlighted the importance of the workshop as a space for critical dialogue and inspiration. He encouraged participants to engage in intellectual exchange and to strengthen the intertextual foundations of their academic manuscripts. According to him, the constructive and reflective discussions cultivated during the sessions are essential to enhancing the academic quality of the written works.

Several notable scholars also attended to support the event, including Prof. Dr. Djoko Saryono, M.Pd. (Universitas Negeri Malang), Dr. Sastri Sunarti, M.Hum. (Vice Chairperson III of HISKI Central Board), Sudartomo Macaryus, M.Hum. (HISKI UST-UTY), and Dr. Shoim Anwar, M.Pd. (Universitas PGRI Adi Buana Surabaya).

The main sessions of the workshop consisted of presentations by selected contributors, each outlining the framework of their academic papers. These works were critically reviewed by two distinguished reviewers Prof. Dr. Aprinus Salam, M.Hum. (HISKI UGM) and Dr. Y. Yapi Taum, M.Hum. (Universitas Sanata Dharma). Their insightful feedback stimulated dynamic discussions and encouraged deeper analytical engagement with Pramoedya’s literary contributions.

The diversity of theoretical frameworks presented—ranging from postcolonial theory to identity and historical narratives—reflected the extensive influence of Pramoedya’s thought in the field of literary studies. Participants offered interpretations that were not only critical and analytical but also contextually reflective of the socio-political dimensions embedded in his works.

Beyond commemorating a literary icon, the workshop represented a concrete effort by the academic community to foster a vibrant, critical, and relevant literary discourse. With a collaborative and intellectually stimulating atmosphere, the Academic Writing Workshop on 100 Years of Pramoedya Ananta Toer successfully provided a meaningful forum for intellectual exchange, interpretative exploration, and the spirit of transformative thought that Pramoedya championed throughout his life and writings.
