Relation Supposing Books Arok Dedes
Arok Dedes, yang merupakan salah satu karya terbaik Pram, menceritakan sejarah perlawanan dan pemberontakan Ken Arok terhadap pemerintahan akuwu Tumampel, Tunggul Ametung. Dalam buku ini, Pram secara jelas mengungkap kondisi sosial politik pada masa itu.Novel ini mencoba memberikan suatu perspektif baru terhadap sejarah dengan menggambarkan Ken Arok bukan hanya seorang berandalan pemberontak, seperti yang banyak dikatakan buku pelajaran sejarah. Tetapi di sini diceritakan bahwa Ken Arok adalah seorang pemimpin rakyat yang tidak puas dengan pemerintahan yang menindas. Novel ini juga menggambarkan kondisi pemberontakan yang terjadi di dalam suatu negara atau kerajaan yang sarat dengan intrik politik.

I admire the ability of Pram to produce this scholarly work. 13th century Java, the people are feed up with the corrupt Governor, there are a number of people manoeuvring for his position and a rebellion forms.Arok is the leader of the rebellion, his motive seems to simply remove the corruption and the adherence to a false God. He is blessed with all sorts of talents but is unemotional for the main.Dedes is the beautiful Consort of the Governor. She was a peasant before being kidnapped and madeAs usual, stories from Pramoedya are always excellent. Though in this one, it's a bit different from the history I'd been thaught when in elementary.The only thing that a bit disturbing about this book is the translation/editing. This one has been translated by Max Lane. I found many words were not quite right; not to mention many wrong typing mistakes...Nevertheless, I did still enjoy the story.
Bagus

i built a game based on this bookso... it was awesomewww.kornwaretm@wordpress.com
It's a more realistic way of looking through the coup d'etat of Singosari Kingdom, stage by famously known "Ken Arok"
This is the first book that make me know what kind of socio-realism fiction is. this book makes me in love with Pramoedya. how he described the rebellion of Ken Arok which was really different with what I known before. since I was child, my parents gave books to make me love reading. one of the book is about Ken Arok from myth point of view. for many years it was I believed. the succeeded of Arok's rebellion was because of Gandring's keris. therefore, I got confused when I read Toer's Arok
