Post-theory or after theory offers some possible meanings and none of which indicates the end of theory or the return to liberal humanism. Post-theory might mean going beyond structuralism, post-structuralism, Marxism, etc. It also means a new paradigm in looking into the connection between theory and texts in terms of not what theory does to texts but what texts do to theory. Another meaning of post-theory, and this is what I am presenting, is the interrogation of Western epistemology for its centrality and domination in literary and cultural theory. Postcolonial theory can be seen as one of such efforts. However, an Indian scholar, Revathi Krishnaswamy, argues that despite the enormous influence of postcolonial theory, it has \u201conly dented, not dismantled Eurocentric practices of knowledge productions\u201d. In Indonesia, until a couple decades ago, critical postcolonial awareness in literary criticism was even almost absent (Foulcher). When finally, it is in vogue among Indonesian scholars, the topics brought up have been somewhat outdated in the global academic conversations. Responding to Krishaswamy\u2019s invitation and Indonesian postcoloniality in general, this working paper will look at the comparative analysis of Java\u2019s narratives of Baron Sekeber and Shakespeare\u2019s Prospero using postcolonial lens to seek the traces of the Javanese critique of Western epistemology, underlying the figuration of dramatic characters, such as Prospero and Caliban. It will see how the text of Baron Sekeber, its theatrical manifestation, and its living myth, while interrogating Western epistemology, contain the ambivalent traces of decoloniality.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
