Goenawan Mohamad, an Indonesian writer, created a poem called Asmaradana that is derived from the classic
Asmaradana song written by Tandhakusuma. Comparing the two works gives the impression that these two texts
interact dialectically in giving the concept of fate and love. The ‘new’ Asmaradana from Goenawan Mohamad
is a soliloquy about realistic attitude in facing destiny whilst the ‘old’ Asmaradana is a kind of assertive
reflection from the main character, Damarwulan, in responding to an inevitable situation. It generates new
meanings and interpretations, whether it is from the writer or the reader, when a new work is created based on
the classic ones. This paper examines how the new Asmaradana shows new interpretation compared to its
previous versions; its prior texts. This paper discusses four Asmaradana poems, two of which are the re-made
versions from Goenawan Mohamad and the Putri Gunung Ledang movie soundtrack, and how they are
interrelated. This paper takes focus on the interpolations of meanings shown in contemporary works that are
different from their originals. This paper shows that the new works still follow the tone of the original works but
they create new interpretations. |
