Deskripsi
Preserved in music, dance, and art-as well as in ritual, tribal law, and mythology-the fighting arts of the Indonesian archipelago play a central role in Indonesian culture. The Martial Arts of Indonesia is a heavily illustrated and well-researched work from revered martial arts scholar and teacher Donn F. Draeger. Draeger offers an expert's perspective on the story of Indonesia's martial culture, providing a comprehensive introduction to the sophisticated forms of empty-hand combat. These acrobatic fighting styles like Pencak Silat-which was granted World Cultural Heritage status by UNESCO in 2019-and Kuntao are growing in popularity around the world. ; Index : 252 - 255 pages ; Bibliografi : 243 - 244 pages ; Glossary-Index : 245 - 251 pages
