Geliat Awal Kehidupan Kritik Sastra Yogya

For a long time, literary criticism has often been overlooked, underestimated. Likewise with the criticism of Yogya literature. The reason, the criticism is not important. Although, in fact, criticism becomes an important part of literary life. Why? Perhaps, because the criticism that emerges is considered not qualified, does not make passion. That is why literary criticism is unable to pursue the development of literary works. It is true that literary criticism is not well developed. But this does not mean literary criticism is dead. In Yogya, literary criticism grew from the very beginning of independence.
