Some Features of the Cultural Matrix
History, Culture, and Region in Southeast Asian Perspectives
A thought-provoking book by author of The Fall of Srivijaya in Malay History, intended to generate discussion of what is meant by earlier Southeast Asian history and the ways in which the subject can be presented. It is left to the reader to decide whether the sudden change of approach of this renowned historian has made a great deal of difference to his perception of Southeast Asia as a zone of subregional histories
On Telling a Story of Vietnam in the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries
My essay in celebration of the Journal 's anniversary sketches what may be the concluding chapter in a study of Vietnam in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries when the Tran dynasty reigned (1226–1400). In 1225 the Tran family overthrew the last emperor of the previous dynasty, the Ly (1009–1225) and hitherto the only long lived one. The Ly imperial line, in fact, lasted nearly fifty years longer than its successor. Nevertheless, the Tran is u…
Southeast Asia as a Southeast Asian Field of Study
My first reaction to your kind invitation was a nervous one. I do not like to throw my weight around and did not feel that it was really my business to give advice to LIPI. But I had to admit to myself that I wanted to visit Indonesia again, and here I am but mourning the absence of two friends: my old traveling partner of Sriwijayan days, Yati Suleiman, and my old sparring partner also of Sriwijayan days, Boechari. Yet, when I began to ask mysel…

Phạm Su Mạnh's Poems Written while Patrolling the Vietnamese Northern Border in the Middle of the Fourteenth Century
I recently discussed the response of Pham Su Mạnh and other fourteenth century Vietnamese officials to signs of peasant unrest when the Trṇn dynasty (1226–1400) weakened. I suggested that the officials were witnessing social and political conditions that compelled them to abandon their habitual sense of being the emperors' obedient subordinates and, instead, reluctantly to assume the responsibility of defining norms of good government. Their unwo…
Assertions of Cultural Well-being in Fourteenth-Century Vietnam
Phạm Sū Mạnh's name first appears in the annals during the 1340s, and by 1358 he is described as a hanh-khǐên . Several of his surviving poems were written when he was travelling on duty in northwestern Vietnam, perhaps in the 1360s. In 1364 and 1365, military precautions were taken on the northern border to safeguard Vietnam from consequences of the civil warin southern China on the eve of the Ming dynasty's accession in 1368
Assertions of Cultural Well-being in Fourteenth-Century Vietnam
I am interested in ways in which some Vietnamese in the fourteenth century were thinking about their fellow-countrymen. The writings of only a few of them are extant, but their understanding of a well-ordered society survived. For this reason, the fourteenth century may be a watershed in Vietnamese history. Thoughtful men during that century were concerned with more than reaffirming their country's independence, which was never in doubt and had b…

Jayavarman II's Military Power
Jayavarman II is the famous Khmer ruler who, in the first half of the 9th century and after a hundred years when Khmer overlordship had been in abeyance, was consecrated on Mount Mahendra “to ensure that the country of the Kambujas would no longer be dependent on Java and that there would be no more than one sovereign who was cakravartin ”. His inscriptions have never been recovered, but Khmers in later times remembered his reign as the time when…

Ayudhyā and the Rearward Part of the World
The Thai kingdom of Ayudhyā endured several periods of crisis during its long history from 1350 to 1767, but the crisis which will concern us here happened in 1592. During that year the king, Nareśvara, was well aware that he lived in a hostile world of unusually wide dimensions. His behaviour will be discussed as a basis for a brief consideration of Ayudhyā's attitude towards the world, a subject of more than diplomatic interest

Asian Trade and European Influence in the Indonesian Archipelago between 1500 and about 1630
The central theme of this comparative study of the position of native trade in Indonesia is the appearance of foreign traders both Asian and European.New sources of information, e.g. the original documents in the Dutch East India Company Archives as well as Portuguese, English and a few native sources have enabled the author to supplement and to criticize the economic aspects of the sociological studies of B.
