History Unhinged: World War II and the Reshaping of Indonesian History
Horton, William Bradley

This dissertation concerns the absence and misrepresentation of the Japanese occupation in modern Indonesian history, and seeks to address the question of the transformation of historical understanding if this period and the cultural approaches to examining history and society were integrated into our understandings.

This paper examines a forgotten novel (1941) featuring a Javanese detective, Raden Soebroto, and mysterious villain, Patjar Koening, presenting an analysis in the context of political scandals, and suggesting that it was shaped by legal risks facing the author and publisher, and inappropriate for readers in politically tense periods like the Japanese occupation (1942-5) or the revolution (1945-9).

Digital Humanities in the Covid Era: The Perspective of a Historian of Modern Indonesia from Northern Japan
William Bradley Horton
Paramita: Historical Studies Journal 32 ( 2 ) 243 - 252 2022.09
The covid-19 era has changed the world, including more “open access” publications, the increasing importance of digital research materials, and engagement in digital interactions of increased importance in the humanities. Perspectives of isolated scholars, in this case, working on the history of Indonesia during World War II from a small national university in a remote city in northern Japan, provide an essential perspective on conducting research and creating digital archives. Far closer to Indonesian students and researchers than researchers in major universities in the West, such practical perspectives are urgently needed to achieve the full potential of digital humanities. Some archives and public library collections have developed digital collections for readers and researchers, however smaller collections of materials made by scholars in the course of their research are also of significant importance but present a large number of unique problems, including dependence on low-budget efforts by individual scholars in their “spare time” to do all the planning and digitizing of their research materials. A coordinated effort by a group of scholars in northern Japan to digitize materials on Indonesian history is making progress but faces different problems than those of large institutions. These problems include long-term support, determining and coding materials for their accessibility, depending on the nature of the material and the rights involved. None-the-less, it is hoped that innovative collaboration will allow some of these materials to be made available to the general public and outside researchers while minimizing the disadvantages.

In 1963, the US government publisher JPRS issued an unauthorized translation of a seminal Japanese work on the wartime administration of Java. The appearance of this book resulted in the abrupt end of Harry J. Benda's Rockefeller Foundation supported translation project. This article attempts to grapple with this mysterious event and the repercussions of the US government's arrogant attitude towards authorial rights in the 1960s.

A kingdom centered in South-Central Java between the 16th century and 1755, when it was formally divided, Mataram has its roots in the mid-16th-century kingdoms of Pajang and Pengging, with legends ascribing its founding to Kyai Gedhe Mataram and expansion to his son Panembahan Senapati Ingalaga (r. c.1584–1601). Mataram reached the peak of its power under Sultan Agung in the early 17th century, based on his political ability and continual military exploits. However, the Dutch East India Company (VOC) was also aggressively expanding throughout the Indonesian archipelago, and had located its headquarters on the northwest coast of Java. The reign of Amangkurat I and the wars for succession over the next hundred years drew the VOC into Javanese affairs, and allowed them to intervene in the shrinking kingdom of Mataram. The division of the kingdom in 1755 is conventionally considered the end of Mataram.

A dual language volume (English and Indonesian) made up of an introduction and two articles. The first article talks about the Indonesian language stories and histories about the Eurasian "rebel" of the early 18th century, Pieter Erberveld, from the 1880s-early 2000s, tracing the knowledge of Indonesians about this ambivalent figure. The second article examines the interactions of Japanese with the monument to Pieter Erberveld created by the Dutch after executing him in 1722. Focused primarily on the early 20th century, this story culminates in the destruction of the monument and the lingering memories of Japanese towards this figure.

In Indonesia during the Japanese occupation, medical units actively investigated infectious diseases and tropical diseases. In particular, they had a strong interest in malaria, which is highly infectious. This study focuses on medical care and hygiene, in which public policies are directly linked to individual life and the actual conditions of life are reflected in the policies, in this case malaria, which was a high cause of death at that time, together with medical care and hygiene. The purpose is to depict the social situation at that time by scrutinizing and analyzing related documents and understanding them in a multifaceted and comprehensive manner. In addition to standard humanities and social science research (historical documentary research), this project's research will be conducted under an interdisciplinary system that also introduces physical science analysis. This research will create a new field of medical care and hygiene in the social history of Indonesia during the Japanese occupation, and at the same time, create a new academic field of fusion of literature and science.

Our Medicine: Alternative Medicines for Malaria from Local Renewable Resources during the Japanese Occupation of Indonesia (1942-1945)
William Bradley Horton
EuroSEAS Conference 2021 (Palacký University in Olomouc) 2021.09 - 2021.09 European Association for Southeast Asian Studies (EuroSEAS)
While Java was the world’s leading producer of cinchona bark, the vital ingredient for quinine, World War II resulted in both local and widespread shortages of quinine even within Indonesia. There were shortages of many other kinds of medicines and medical supplies as well. Even before the war, cost of medical treatment, availability of medical professionals, confidence in untested traditional medicines, and even suspicion of Western medicine were obstacles to improvement of public health.
In the days after the declaration of independence, with Japanese troops still present in Jakarta, a small 31-page booklet was published by the government publisher, Balai Poestaka. Entitled Obat-obat dari Bahan-bahan Negeri Sendiri [Medicines from Our Own Country’s Materials], if taken at face value, this book’s authors were seeking to find a way for both individual citizens and whole regions to become more medically independent through utilization of local renewable natural resources and traditional knowledge. Included were two recipes for treatment of malaria. This was not a sudden event, as efforts to develop and test alternative medicines for different illnesses were eagerly spread throughout Indonesia, even crossing Japanese administrative borders and dangerous stretches of ocean. This paper will discuss these two medicines, their development, potential effectiveness, as well as this publication itself.
