Pramoedya Ananta Toer

Pramoedya Ananta Toer was an Indonesian author of novels, short stories, essays, polemics, and histories of his homeland and its people. A well-regarded writer in the West, Pramoedya's outspoken and often politically charged writings faced censorship in his native land during the pre-reformation era. For opposing the policies of both founding president Sukarno, as well as those of its successor, the New Order regime of Suharto, he faced extrajudicial punishment. During the many years in which he suffered imprisonment and house arrest, he became a cause célèbre for advocates of freedom of expression and human rights.

Joris Luyendijk

Ik werd in 1971 geboren in Amsterdam, maar groeide vanaf mijn vijfde op in Hilversum, een dorp onder de rook van de hoofdstad. In 1990 kreeg ik de kans om een jaar in Amerika te gaan studeren en ik dacht met mijn Hollandse kop: als ik nou een universiteit kies in het midden van het land, zit ik lekker centraal.

Na een heerlijk jaar tussen optimistische mensen ging ik in Amsterdam studeren, wat uitmondde in een zwerftocht van politicologie, via geschiedenis, naar Arabische en religieuze antropologie. In 1995 deed ik een jaar onderzoek onder Egyptische leeftijdsgenot
