Linus Suryadi AG
Linus Suryadi Agustinus, commonly known Linus Suryadi AG or Linus Suryadi AGN was born in Sleman, Indonesia on 3 March 1951 and died in Yogyakarta on 30 July 1999 at the age of 48. Linus Suryadi studied at IKIP Sanata Dharma and began publishing poems and essays while still in his late teens. He studied English in college but left before completion, and worked on various newspapers and magazines in Yogyakarta. According to Harry Aveling, Suryadi's prose-lyric ''Pengakuan Pariyem'' (Pariyem's Confession) attracted considerable attention for its bold use of Javanese words and phrases. In ''Pengakuan Pariyem'', Suryadi describes the life of a female servant of a noble family which is limited by the traditions of the court town of Yogyakarta.

In 1982, Linus Suryadi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

People From Sleman Regency
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
