RADEN AJENG KARTINI

Raden Adjeng Kartini was born to a noble family on April 21, 1879, in the village of Mayong, Java, Indonesia.
Kartini’s mother, Ngasirah, was the daughter of a religious scholar. Her father, Sosroningrat, was a Javanese
aristocrat working for the Dutch colonial government. This afforded Kartini the opportunity to go to a Dutch school,
at the age of 6. The school opened her eyes to Western ideals. During this time, Kartini also took sewing lessons
from another regent’s wife, Mrs. Marie Ovink-Soer. Ovink-Soer imparted her feminist views to Kartini, and was
therefore instrumental in planting the seed for Kartini’s later activism.

When Kartini reached adolescence, Javanese tradition dictated that she leave her Dutch school for the sheltered
existence deemed appropriate to a young female noble.

Struggling to adapt to isolation, Kartini wrote letters to Ovink-Soer and her Dutch schoolmates, protesting the
gender inequality of Javanese traditions such as forced marriages at a young age, which denied women the freedom
to pursue an education.

Ironically, in her eagerness to escape her isolation, Kartini had to to accept a marriage proposal arranged by her
father. On November 8, 1903, she wed the regent of Rembang, Raden Adipati Joyodiningrat. Kartini had recently
been offered a scholarship to study abroad, and the marriage dashed her hopes of accepting it. According to
Javanese tradition, at 24 she was too old to expect to marry well.

Intent on spreading her feminist message, with her new husband’s approval, Kartini soon set about planning to start
her own school for Javanese girls. With help from the Dutch government, in 1903 she opened the first Indonesian
primary school for native girls that did not discriminate on the basis of their social status. The school was set up
inside her father’s home, and taught girls a progressive, Western-based curriculum. To Kartini, the ideal education
for a young woman encouraged empowerment and enlightenment. She also promoted their lifelong pursuit of
education. To that end, Kartini regularly corresponded with feminist Stella Zeehandelaar as well as numerous Dutch
officials with the authority to further the cause of Javanese women’s emancipation from oppressive laws and
traditions. Her letters also expressed her Javanese nationalist sentiments.

On September 17, 1904, at the age of 25, Kartini died in the regency of Rembang, Java, of complications from
giving birth to her first child. Seven years after her death, one of her correspondents, Jacques H. Abendanon,
published a collection of Kartini’s letters, entitled “From Darkness to Light: Thoughts About and on Behalf of the
Javanese People.” In Indonesia, Kartini Day is still celebrated annually on Kartini’s birthday.
