Wayang Golek (Bahasa Indonesia)

(Wayang Golek)

      Wayang Golek adalah suatu seni pertunjukan wayang yang terbuat dari boneka kayu, yang terutama sangat populer di wilayah Tanah Pasundan. Wayang adalah bentuk teater rakyat yang sangat popular. Orang sering menghubungkan kata “wayang” dengan ”bayang”, karena dilihat dari pertunjukan wayang kulit yang memakai layar, dimana muncul bayangan-bayangan.
      Asal mula wayang golek tidak diketahui secara jelas karena tidak ada keterangan lengkap, baik tulisan maupun lisan. Kehadiran wayang golek tidak dapat dipisahkan dari wayang kulit karena wayang golek merupakan perkembangan dari wayang kulit.
      Kelahiran wayang golek diprakarsai oleh Dalem Karang Anyar (Wiranata Koesoemah III) pada masa akhir jabatannya. Waktu itu Dalem memerintahkan Ki Darman yang tinggal di Cibiru, Ujung Berung, untuk membuat wayang dari kayu. Bentuk wayang yang dibuatnya semula berbentuk gepeng dan berpola pada wayang kulit. Namun, pada perkembangan selanjutnya, atas anjuran Dalem, Ki Darman membuat wayang golek yang membulat tidak jauh berbeda dengan wayang golek sekarang. Di daerah Priangan sendiri dikenal pada awal abad ke-19. Perkenalan masyarakat Sunda dengan wayang golek dimungkinkan sejak dibukanya jalan raya Daendels yang menghubungkan daerah pantai dengan Priangan yang bergunung-gunung. Semula wayang golek di Priangan menggunakan bahasa Jawa. Namun, setelah orang Sunda pandai mendalang, maka bahasa yang digunakan adalah bahasa Sunda.
