Description

Explore the deep connection between martial arts and cultural identity with The Fighting Art of Pencak Silat and its Music. Part of the Brill's Southeast Asian Library series, this volume examines how pencak silat functions as a pluripotent art form that links traditional village practices to a global movement. This book uses methods from ethnomusicology, ethnochoreology, performance theory, and anthropology to look at the martial art through a wide lens. It moves beyond simple combat to look at how these movements connect to a network of performing arts across Southeast Asia. By studying the relationship between fighting and music, readers gain a better understanding of the local concepts that shape ethics, society, spirituality, and personal life in the region. Whether you are a student of Southeast Asian studies or interested in the cultural roots of martial arts, this work provides a detailed look at the importance of pencak silat in the broader context of modern and traditional performing arts.
