Philology and Old Javanese Language Course

Philology and Old Javanese language courses are elective courses for students. The main objective of this course is for students to be able to reconstruct Old Javanese texts. Students are expected to have the ability to read Old Javanese script. In this course, students are taught how to transliterate manuscripts, inventory manuscripts, select manuscripts that meet standards and set aside those that do not meet standards, reconstruct manuscripts, and ultimately obtain an edited manuscript that contains text that is close to the original or original form of the text. To support the learning process, lectures also include research examples that are considered representative so that students have a clear and concrete picture of how to handle texts using correct scientific methods with objective results.
