editFamily of Subagio Sastrowardoyo
editMr. Sastrowardoyo was a son (the 11th of 14 children) of Raden Mas Sutejo Sastrowardoyo (1876–1968), a wedono of the Uteran District in Madiun,[1] and Raden Ayu Ratna Suyati Sastrowardoyo (née Kartokusumo) (1887–1980), a noblewoman descended from a minister of the Majapahit Empire. His wife was Sumarni Sastrowardoyo (?-2002). They are survived by three children—Saraswati Sastrowardoyo,[2] Rukmiati (also known as Minuk) Richards and Prakoso Sastrowardoyo – and two grandchildren, Anton Nortkus and Kristof Nortkus.
Mr. Sastrowardoyo's siblings included Prof. Soenario, S.H., minister of foreign affairs from 1953 to 1955; Dra. Sukanti Suryochondro, a former instructor in women's studies at the University of Indonesia; Subekti Sastrowardojo, who died in infancy during the 1918 influenza pandemic; Suryono Sastrowardoyo, a career diplomat whose posts included Singapore, Italy, the United States and Poland; Dr. Sumarsono Sastrowardoyo, a physician, surgeon and memoirist; and Sumarsongko H. Sastrowardoyo, M.A., formerly of the staff of the Consulate General of Indonesia in New York City. (Subagio had been the best man at his brother Sumarsongko's wedding in 1962.)
His family name was derived from sastra (Sanskrit, writings) and wardaya (Sanskrit, heart), so literally meant "writings of the heart." In the old Dutch spelling, the family name had been spelled Sastrowardojo but, even prior to the spelling reform in Indonesia in 1972, some members had changed the j to a y -- and one brother, Sudibbyo, spelled the name Sastrowardhoyo, reflecting the aspirant d.
Mr. Sastrowardoyo's first name has also been spelled Soebagio and Soebagyo.
Two nephews, Rahadyan Sastrowardoyo[16][17] and Hartriono B. Sastrowardoyo, are U.S.-based journalists (the latter for The Asbury Park Press[18]). The actress Dian Sastrowardoyo is a grandniece.
His father, Sutejo Sastrowardoyo, traced the family's ancestry back to 15th century Java.
President Megawati Sukarnoputri posthumously awarded Mr. Sastrowardoyo the Satya Lencana medal in the field of literature in (year?) — Preceding unsigned comment added by WL5Joy (talk • contribs) 02:24, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
