Abstract


ABSTRAK: Kebudayaan sesebuah tamadun perlu dilestarikan demi kemandirian tamadun tersebut. Tinggal lagi makna kebudayaan itu yang perlu jelas. Untuk itu makna kebudayaan daripada segi etimologi dan penggunaan di Malayonesia sebelum abad ke-18 M ditelusuri dengan tujuan memformulasikan makna kebudayaan yang lebih bertaraf ketamadunan yang lebih tinggi daripada yang biasa difahami di rantau ini kini. Perbandingan makna budaya dengan culture juga dilakukan sebagai bahan tanda aras penilaian itu. Kesimpulannya unsur kebudayaan yang terpenting dan perlu dilestarikan ialah bahasa dan ilmu, kherusnya bagi Malayonesia ialah bahasa Melayu dan ilmu Malayonesia. Sejarah turun-naiknya bahasa dan ilmu di Malayonexia ini ditelusuri dengan tujuan mencari indeks-indeks penting keterlestarian kebudayaan Malayonesia, khususnya kebudayaan Melayu Malaysia. Sejarah keruntuhan bahasa dan ilmu dari tamadun-tamadun besar lain juga dipaparkan dengan tujuan menambahkan lagi senarai indeks keterlestarian sesebuah kebudayaan

Kata kunci: Keterlestarian, kajian budaya, kajian tamadun atau peradaban; ilmu Malayonesia


ABSTRACT: Culture needs to be sustained for survival of the civilization concerned. However the definition of a culture must first be well defined. Therefore we study the definition of culture in English and its corresponding words in Malay, budaya, etymologically as well as based on its practice in Malayonesia before 18" century, with an objective to formulate the meaning of culture better than presently understood. We argue that elements of culture which is most important and need to be sustained is language dan knowledge, particularly for Malayonesia is bahasa Melayu (Malay language) and Malayonesian knowledge in which we define the later element appropriately. Accordingly, a history of rise and fall of a language and knowledge in every big civilization including Malayonesian civilization become a new field of study which we have started to embark on it here, for a purpose of finding important indices of sustainabsisty of a culture.

Keywords: Sustainability, cultural studies, civilizational studies, Malayonesian knowledge
