Realizing the Dream of R. A. Kartini: Her Sisters’ Letters from Colonial Java presents
a unique collection of documents reflecting the lives, attitudes, and
politics of four Javanese women in the early twentieth century. Joost J.
Coté translates the correspondence between Raden Ajeng Kartini,
Indonesia’s first feminist, and her sisters, revealing for the first
time her sisters’ contributions in defining and carrying out her ideals.
With this collection, Coté aims to situate Kartini’s sisters within the
more famous Kartini narrative–and indirectly to situate Kartini herself
within a broader narrative.
The letters reveal the emotional
lives of these modern women and their concerns for the welfare of their
husbands and the success of their children in rapidly changing times.
While by no means radical nationalists, and not yet extending their
horizons to the possibility of an Indonesian nation, these members of a
new middle class nevertheless confidently express their belief in their
own national identity.
Realizing the Dream of R. A. Kartini
is essential reading for scholars of Indonesian history, providing
documentary evidence of the culture of modern, urban Java in the late
colonial era and an insight into the ferment of the Indonesian
nationalist movement in which these women and their husbands played
representative roles.

In Indonesia, the legacy of Raden Ajeng Kartini (1879-1904) is
celebrated on Kartini Day, every year on April 21. Around the world,
Kartini is recognized as a major figure in the history of the
advancement of women: a tireless and effective advocate of women's
education and emancipation. However, this book is the first complete and
unexpurgated collection of Kartini's published articles, memoranda, and
correspondence ever published in any language. This collection reveals
Kartini's importance as a pioneer of the Indonesian nationalist
movement. Claiming, in her letters and petitions, her people's right to
national autonomy well before her male compatriots did so publicly,
Raden Ajeng Kartini used her writing in an attempt to educate the
Netherlands and Dutch colonialists about Java and the aspirations of its
people. Had she lived, she would have been one of Indonesia's leading
pre-independence writers, as well as an educationist. In 1964, she was
elevated to the status of national hero by Indonesia's first president,
Sukarno. She has become one of the most well known Asian figures in the
international women's movement. The product of several decades' study
and based on archival sources, Kartini: The Complete Writings, 1898-1904
is extensively annotated and provided with an authoritative historical
introduction by one of the world's leading Kartini authorities. The book
will be the essential resource for scholars and students of Kartini and
her place in Indonesian history, around the world, for many years to
come. (Series: Monash Asia) [Subject: History, Asian Studies, Indonesian
