Despite the existence of a large body of Javanese historical (babad) literature on Dipanagara (1785-1855) and the period of the Java War (1825-30), very few texts have been published or made available in any form.
The following edition and translation in English and Indonesian Malay of Codex Orientalis 2114 (Babad Dipanagara) of the Leiden University Library is thus intended to partially fill this gap in modern Javanese historiography." (Publisher's description).
