The Rancage Literary Award is a prize given to people who are considered to have contributed to the development of language and literature. This award is given by Rancage Cultural Foundation, which was founded by humanists Ajip Rosidi, Erry Riyana Harjapamekas, Edi S. Ekajati, and some other figures.
In the beginning, the only literary prizes include literary, but then this award is also given to the literary world of Java, Bali literature, and Lampung literature. In 1990, Literary Gifts Rancage into two, namely to work published in the form of books and for services for those who contributed to the development of language and literature in the area.
