Description
Summary:This essay explains about postcolonial space body in the poem Sakramen by Joko Pinurbo. In the Upstone postcolonial context, body is the subject which being ordered the same with home, journey, nation, and city. Body becomes the last space in colonialism, as a form of power and ownership implementation in supporting the existed systems. Body becomes part of colonial absolute definition target, but there is posibility of redefinition continuance. This research finds that body construction is found in Sakramen poem paradoxically presents dialiectic between body and soul which revolve in the matter of God as body. This construction in the end becomes self-deconstruction for the author which ontologically refers that body (material) is destroyed in impermanence, while spirit (idea) of Christ as God is idealized in unity. In the end, this condition directs that the ideal contruction is in the spirit world, while in here, (the empirical, physical) is just irony. Keyword: space, post-colonialism, chaos, altenative body, whole budy, paradox, self-deconstruction, irony.
