Puisi Angka Jawa sebagai Indigenous Knowledge dalam Perspektif Etnomatematika Sastra

Suwardi Endraswara

Abstract

This article aims to interpret Javanese number poetry texts. These number poems, apart from being symbols of intelligence, are also symbols of Javanese indigenous knowledge. The study uses qualitative interpretive ethnographic methods. Meaning is also studied using a literary ethnomathematics perspective. The Javanese number poetry data appears in four forms, namely: (1) macapat, (2) dolanan songs, (3) karawitan literature, and (4) geguritan. The Javanese numeric poetry data is read heuristically, then interpreted hermeneutically. This study emphasizes transdisciplinary studies. The results of the study show that in Javanese life, there are various number poems. After understanding the Javanese number poetry, it uses four perspectives of meaning, namely: (1) Ethnomathematics of literary analogies, (2) Ethnomathematics of literary anthropology, (3) Ethnomathematics of literary pedagogy, and (4) Ethnomathematics of Literary Memory. Through these four perspectives, Javanese number poetry is found as an illustration of the philosophy of indigenous knowledge. The text of the poem contains local analogies about numbers. The mathematical poem with the dhandhanggula meter actually depicts numbers starting from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 0. The Javanese number poem is an invitation to encourage students to behave, among other things: ( 1) working hard, (2) working together, (3) helping each other, (4) getting along harmoniously, and (5) mutual cooperation. This study of Javanese number poetry is useful for providing an overview of the intelligence of the Javanese people. In the future, it is necessary to study further the Javanese number poetry that appears in various Javanese literary genres.
