Sastra
Literature is a loan from Sanskrit; "śāstra", which means "writing" or "book", from the basic word "śās-" which means "saw". In Javanese, this term is commonly used to refer to "literary" or something of particular meaning or beauty. However, the word "literature" can also refer to all kinds of texts, whether it is exquisite or not. Literary works are also used for the media to tell the experience of the sky. The words, words, and languages used by the author are beautiful language so it makes sense to readers. The events that have been lifted are not only good events but also the worst events in the story. But from the wonderful or bad stories we can take the essence. The citation also can be involved in certain civil society in the work of the literary works, such as the mindset of society. In addition, the literary word can be divided into literary writing with oral literature. Sastra iku sawijing tembung silihan saka Basa Sansekerta; "śāstra", sing tegese "tulisan" utawa "buku", saka tembung dasar "śās-" sing tegese "weruh". Ing basa Jawa, tembung iki biasane dienggo ngarani "kasusastran" utawa sajinising tulisan sing nduwe arti utawa kaendahan tartamtu. Ananging, tembung "sastra" ugi bisa ngarani kabeh jinis tulisan, apa iki endah apa ora. Karya sastra ugi dipungginakaken kagem media mratelaaken pengalaman panggangit. Ukara, tembung, lan basa ingkang dipunginaaken dening panganggit punika basa ingkang endah saengga dadosaken raos remen kagem tiyang ingkang maos. Prastawa-prastawa ingkang dipunangkat panggangit boten namung prastawa ingkang sae kemawon ananging ugi prastawa ingkang awon wontening salebeting carios. Ananging saking carios éndah utawi awon punika kita saged mundhut sari pathinipun. Pangganggit ugi saged mangaribawa kabudayan masyarakat tertemtu ing salebeting karya sastra ingkang dipunanggit, kadosta pola pikir masyarakat. Saliyane iku, tembung sastra bisa dibagi dadi sastra tulis karo sastra lisan.
