Abstract

Fokus penelitian ini menggali nilai-nilai etis yang terkandung dalam upacara Racang Ngi’is dan mengelaborasikan dengan konsep nilai menurut Max Scheler. Racang Ngi’is adalah upacara pendewasaan diri perempuan Riung-Flores. Setiap gadis Riung yang dipandang dewasa secara adat dan siap membina hidup rumah tangga harus melewati upacara tersebut. Akan tetapi, saat ini upacara Racang Ngi’is kurang diminati baik oleh generasi muda maupun masyarakat Riung. Hal ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor diantaranya; pertama, tidak ditemukan sumber tertulis tentang tata cara pelaksanaan upacara Racang Ngi’is. Kedua biaya yang cukup malah dan ketiga kaum muda Riung lebih tertarik terhadap budaya asing. Akibatnya, banyak gadis yang hidup berumah tangga tanpa melaksanakan upacara Racang Ngi’is terlebih dahulu. Peneliti menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi literatur terkait tulisan-tulisan yang membahas tema penelitian dan mewawancarai beberapa narasumber sebagai sumber primer penelitian. Peneliti juga mengkaji beberapa artikel yang membahas proses pendewasaan diri di beberapa daerah seperti Nagekeo, Sabu, dan Bali sebagai sumber sekunder. Peneliti menemukan bahwa upacara Racang Ngi’is memiliki empat nilai yang terkandung di dalamnya yakni nilai kegembiraan, sosial, kepercayaan dan religius. Nilai-nilai tersebut memiliki tingkatan atau hierarki nilai dari yang terendah (kegembiraan) sampai tertinggi (religius). This research explores the ethical values contained in the Racang Ngi'is ceremony and elaborates on the concept of value according to Max Scheler. Racang Ngi'is is a coming-of-age ceremony for Riung-Flores women. Every Riung girl who is considered mature by custom and ready to build a household must go through the ceremony. However, currently the Racang Ngi'is ceremony is of less interest to both the younger generation and the Riung community. This is due to several factors including; firstly, no written sources were found about the procedures for performing the Racang Ngi'is ceremony. Secondly, the cost is quite prohibitive and thirdly the youth of Riung are more interested in foreign cultures. As a result, many girls married without performing the Racang Ngi'is ceremony first. The researcher used a qualitative method with a literature study approach related to writings that discuss the research theme and interviewed several sources as primary sources of research. The researcher also reviewed several articles that discussed the process of self-maturation in several regions such as Nagekeo, Sabu, and Bali as secondary sources. The researcher found that the Racang Ngi'is ceremony has four values contained in it, namely joy, social, belief and religious values. These values have a level or hierarchy of values from the lowest (joy) to the highest (religious).

Abstract

This article attempts to interpret the weaving culture of Sikka-Maumere, Flores, in a Christian way. First of all, the weaving tradition is described as a cultural heritage which has social, economic, artistic and religious meanings. It takes a long process and involves many people to create this beautiful woven cloth that is characteristic of the local community in Sikka-Maumere. The process of working on it and its completion can be interpreted in a Christian way, especially from the perspective of an ecclesiastical community. Like the work of weaving, life in an ecclesiastical community requires integrated cooperation between the various parties and a constructive rigor, because the life of an ecclesiastical communion can be compared to the work of weaving. All members of the Church are called to share in this work of weaving together with the main weaver, namely the Lord God Himself.
