Appears at a time when Tagalog movies in the 35mm format seem to have arrived at their twilight years. Independent movies in the form of digital films that the Cinemalaya Film Festival of the Cultural Center of the Philippines had proliferated since 2005, have ushered in new chapter in the history of Filipino movies.

This is a collection of thirty-three Philippine-Asian oral traditions that have come down from the remote past. It was written in the hope that a new generation, that is a last awakening to nationalism, may discover the charm, the depth, and the variety of these ancestral narratives.

Benjamin Pimentel

The cause of history writing owes Ambeth Ocampo a great deal. By his extraordinary use of a relatively new genre, he has rescued history from the cold, forbidding halls of academe. He has made of history something amusing, entertaining... as immediate as a newspaper headline, as relevant as a rapper’s song .

The post-Ramos coup attempts did not have the same political magnitude and intensity as those which went on during the years of Cory Aquino in power in the 1980s. This is partly why putting the pieces together felt like writing a post mortem account.

This book traces the unique, dramatic odyssey of the most intriguing figure of the First Quarter Storm and of the generation of young Filipinos who helped shape Philippine history.

Ang Hayop na Ito

Reportage on Crime

Jose Y. Dalisay Jr.

Virgilio S. Almario

Nick Joaquin

A rich volume of photographs and essays by the country’s noted writers and photographers on the Philippines - its various and colorful people, places, history, tradition and culture. A creative testament that the country is a dynamic place - a manifold land.

National Artist for Literature Virgilio Almario collects 41 poems in Filipino about animals. The entries contain dates of first publications, “para makita mo,” says the author, “kung sakali, kung may pinagkatandaan ako.” Almario is also known under the pseudonym, Rio Alma.

The thirteen narratives in this anthology of true crime stories transcend journalism by attempting analyses of character, motive, period and ambiance. What emerges is the picture of a fascinating decade: the 1960s.

The essays in this collection survey major landmarks in the Ateneo de Manila University’s 150-year history. But, rather than being a comprehensive history of the Ateneo as an institution, these essays are instead reflections of how the Ateneo’s own history has been closely intertwined with that of the Filipino nation on how it has sought to engage the nation towards the creation of a more just and equitable society in keeping with the goals of the Ateneo as a Jesuit, Catholic, and Filipino institution of learning.

The particular culture we are in offers us a menu of options with which to make sense of the various and disparate events in our lives. Culture therefore cannot be ignored for being “unimportant,” for, through it, the lives that we lead acquire a shape that gladdens us. In the heightened competition that characterizes globalization, knowing one’s culture and keeping in touch with its most intimate values and aspirations can give the individual plenty of needed comfort.

Adolescents today live in a fastpaced, quickly changing, mindspinning world. At the core of this new world is complexity, and with it come confusion and vulnerability. Adolescents then need much hope. Hope is not just about wishing for things; it includes knowing the world where they wish is a safe place. Parents want to help their children navigate through it all. But more than a sense of safety and security, parents want their children to be self-aware, self-assured, and self-propelling. Parents feel a need to support their children in a way that they might survive as well as soar. Parents best help their children by giving them hope.

Basta

Modern prose fiction in Cebuano has its beginnings in the nineteenth century. In this respect, its emergence antedates the appearance of the first short stories and novels in much of Southeast Asia. Beyond this note of historical importance, however, Cebuano fiction is of value in itself, as a body of literary art, and for what it can reveal to us of Cebuano and Philippine culture.

Cebuano writing suffered marginalization in the scheme of a national literature and culture in the postwar years. In the work of some practitioners, many of them represented in this book, Cebuano fiction has acquired a more mellow, more confident voice.

Basta, is a work of clarity and stunning vision, and it is a vision that terrifies. Exiled from what makes him human, long subject to and of indignities, man is tethered back to his compulsions and is complicit. It is a complicity that contaminates every redemptive act, the sublimation of our impulses and sufferings, so that mortification of the flesh verges on its pornographic violation. The flagellating figure in the collection, the savior as sinner (and vice versa), may very well be a voyeur and an oppressor in his communion with the forsaken.

The Promise of the Nation, trailblazing in many respects, will be a yardstick for all other critical works to follow. Its virtue lies in its capacity to resist the onslaught of a scholarship that reads only the ‘nation’ and the ‘national’ from the vortex of a centralized political, economic, and cultural power. Irreverent and relevant, there is promise fulfilled in this work and the Ilokano people are richer because of its contribution to the critical production of knowledge in what we can now call Ilokano Studies.

Gerard A. Finin

Elmer I. Nocheseda

The author illuminates how Igorots, or “Cordillerans,” during the 1980s and 1990s, articulated an image of oneness in resisting the Marcos regime’s dam and logging projects, and in subsequent calls for a Cordillera Autonomous Region similar to Mindanao.

Palaspas, a richly photographed book, begins with how the palm leaf has figured in our early history and culture, then highlights its myriad manifestations in the contemporary religious, social, and economic practices of our people in various communities all over the country.

MINDANAO STUDIES

Orthodoxy and History in the Muslim-Mindanao Narrative

Voices from Sulu: A Collection of Tausug Oral Traditions

Patricio N. Abinales

Gerard Rixhon

This collection of essays challenges the prevailing academic and activist orthodoxy that sees the history and politics of the region as simply reflections of the unceasing resistance by Muslims against the Philippine state and the Christian Filipino majority. It lays out a number of revisionist arguments that highlight, among other things, the enduring interconnections between Muslims and Filipinos, the peculiar nature of state formation and economic development in Muslim Mindanao, the dilemmas of Muslim separatism, and the value of comparing Mindanao provinces, as well as Muslim Mindanao and equally marginalized areas like Okinawa.

Political conflict and religious fundamentalism coupled with the advent of audio-visual media have made it difficult for traditional oral literature to remain in the popular consciousness, especially in Sulu. This volume is an attempt to preserve and present to a new generation some of the Tausug oral art forms that were recorded and collected over fifty years ago in the Sulu Archipelago.

SERIES

The 10 Batibot stories in this new Buhay Bata series were published for young children. Written in Filipino and translated into English, these stories were first shown on TV and written specifically to help children understand and solve issues and problems that arise in the first six years of life — everyday problems that are part of everyone’s growing up. These also help children understand their own bodies, their actions which lead to a better and healthier self-image. It would help if parents and teachers were to discuss these stories with their children to arrive at a solution proper and effective for each individual family. The simple but valuable life issues of children are discussed through the medium of children’s stories and thus prove to be useful aids to parents, teachers and other caregivers.

Written during the first month of 1900, the subject of this book is a memoir of Fr. Fernando Garcia, a Spanish Augustinian Friar who became a prisoner of the Philippine Revolution form 1898 until the last days of 1899. In an epistle format, it is a litany of his experiences and events that led to his eventual escape after 18 months of captivity in various places to Luzon, the Philippines. What makes it interesting is that it was written in Kapampangan (perhaps the only one of its kind on the Philippine Revolution), the language of his parishioners in Pampanga whom he had served with love and devotion until his incarceration,

They wrote these for the benefit not of the natives, but of their fellow missionaries newly assigned to their respective missions and parishes, where they had to deliver homilies that no longer required someone standing beside them in the pulpit to do on-the-spot translations. The friars also needed to learn the vernacular so that they could understand the sins being confessed to them in the confession box and give the exact, corresponding punishment. We are lucky that because the friars dreaded being objects of the natives’ ridicule, they diligently studied our language and handed down to us these vocabularios and artes which reveal so much not only about our language in its pristine stage, but also about our ancestors’ way of life.

One of the reasons Filipinos did not learn the Spanish language like, for example, the Latin Americans did, even after 300 years of colonization, is that the friars—to whom the King had assigned the task of teaching the natives the Spanish language— decided that it was more convenient for them to learn the natives’ language than to teach them Spanish. This is also the reason the friars did not bother to translate the Bible into any of the Philippine languages, and the reason the natives wrote their own version of it (the pasyon). Instead, the friars wrote dictionaries (vocabulario) and grammars (arte)— Kapampangan, Tagalog, Hiligaynon, Cebuano, Ilonggo, Ilocano—name it, they wrote it.

One of the first things the Spanish missionaries did upon arriving in the new colony was to study the local language. They did not teach their converts Spanish because apparently, it was easier for the missionaries to learn the language of the natives, than for the natives to learn the language of the missionaries. This is the reason we never acquired proficiency in Spanish despite being a colony of Spain for over 300 years.

Ang lahat ng Wika sa Kapuluan ay sari-saring bulaklak na kung bagamat ay iba ang kanikanilang kulay at bango, ay tumutubo naman lahat sa Hardin ng Pilipinas; ang Kapangpangan at tagalong ay ganyan, dalawang mabangong bulaklak na palibhasa’y magkapatid ay tinuhog ninyo at ginawang kuwintas ng Inang Pilipinas, with that metaphor, the great Tagalog poet Jose Corazon de Jesus (a.k.a Huseng Batute) approved the Kapampangan translation of his verse novel Gloria by an obscure poet from Pampanga, Roman Leoncio.

This was in late 1920s, when the literary scene in Pampanga was percolating with publications and performances whose sheer number, variety and quality would invite comparison with Elizabethan Age. The same scene was occurring just across the Pampanga River, home of another ethno-linguistic tribe, the Tagalogs, whose destiny and role in history alternately merged and parted and sometimes collided with that of the Kapampangans. As Huseng Batute and Roman Leoncio showed the kinship of Tagalogs and Kapampangans, so have the people behind this publication crossed the river and other great divides to prove that regional languages are nothing but ways of expressing the same national spirit.

Kapampangans should get used to the idea of living with an active volcano in their backyard. Its future eruptions, which are certain, will always interrupt the region’s progress in a vicious cycle of growth and destruction. Pinatubo’s peak is gone for now, but in the next few years (or decades or centuries, who knows?) it will grow back, like it always has, in a process that may or may not be as explosive as the 1991 eruption.

A book of poetry, Jim Pascual Agustin’s Alien to Any Skin captures the sensibilities of readers, Filipino or not, with precise observations from the author who is now based in Africa. Evidently manifested in the book is Agustin’s broadened horizon from the experiences he earned in and out of the Philippines.

Unlike writers of the younger generation who deem it necessary to destroy what the elders have built to etch their own mark in literature, Coroza uses the freshness of his voice as a poet with traditional viewpoint created by his predecessors.

Has its close connections with academe enriched or diminished Philippine literature in English? Are there alternatives to academe as literary arbiters? Is Latin American fiction the source of Philippine marvelous realism, or are our own novelists in English mining a more powerful, native lode? How do contemporary Filipino women writers perform? The modern wonder tale? How do women’s memoirs and travel essays function as social history? Are literary blogs part of a long tradition of chronicling or are they breaking new ground? These are some of the questions that Cristina Pantoja Hidalgo asks in her latest, and perhaps most provocative, book.

From Colonial to Liberation Psychology: The Philippine Experience The book is an organized material of indigenous psychology concepts culled from different treatises by the author based on his interviews of psychology professors, practitioners, and social researchers as well as his knowledge acquired in the course of teaching in the different universities in the Philippines and other countries. The book includes a discussion on the colonial background of psychology in the Philippines and the subsequent development of psychological thought in the country. The author traced this development against the backdrop of historical events and issues that

This book makes a postcolonial reading of the American invasion and colonization of the Philippines in 1898. It considers how nineteenth century American popular culture, specifically political cartoons and caricatures, influenced American foreign policy. These sources, drawn from several US libraries and archives, show how race and gender ideologies significantly influenced the move of the USA to annex the Philippines.

Bob Boyer offers affectionate – often intimate – portraits of Filipino life and culture, formed over many visits to a country that many, if not most, Americans know only in the broadest terms: as a staunch ally in the Pacific and its other wars, as the rack of Imelda’s shoes, and as the home of Manny Pacquiao. Bob sharpens that picture with factual detail, but also softens the resulting image of the Filipino with his sympathy and understanding.

This is a story about the Communist Party of the Philippine (CPP) from its founding in 1968 to its devastating splits in the early 1990s. Weekley asks why the CPP was not able to adjust to the changed political condition of EDSA, when it was necessary to do so. Using official and unofficial CPP documents, and information from her in-depth interviews with ranking party cadres (former and present), Weekley tells a story that is critical of and yet sympathetic to the dilemmas of the CPP.

The Roots is above all a Filipino story. It begins as the story of our ancestors, their differentiation into Muslims and non-Muslims, and then the division of the non-Muslims into Christians and non-Christians. It tells of their separation for centuries, and then of how the natives, Chinese and Spanish mestizos, and even some full-blooded Spaniards born in Filipinas, united to form the Christian Filipino nation. It tells of the imperfect joining of Christians and Muslims during the American colonial regime, as distinguished from the vision of Rizal and Aguinaldo of a fraternal, allarchipelago union.

Philippine Folk Literature: An Anthology, a pioneering work in Philippine folklore studies, is the first volume of an eight-volume Philippine Folk Literature Series. The Introduction gives a helpful discussion of folk literature in general, defines terms, and briefly surveys the different types of Philippine folk literature: Folk Narratives, under which are given myths, heroic narratives (mostly folk epics), legends, and folktales; Folk Speech, represented by proverbs and riddles; and Folk Songs, of the narrative, lyric, and miscellaneous types. Within each type, selections are presented in geographic order, from north to south.

Philippine Folk Literature. The Proverbs is Volume VI of the author’s eight-volume Philippine Folk Literature Series. This collection focuses on the proverb-a terse didactic statement, handed down through generations, the wisdom of many and the wit of one. It ordinarily suggests a course of action or passes judgment on a situation. As an introduction to the collection, the essay “Philippine Proverb Lore” is reprinted here, to provide readers with an overview.

Philippine Folk Literature. The Folktales is Volume IV in the eight volume Philippine Folk Literature Series. This collection focuses on folktales, defined in this work as fictional folk narratives, which are not considered as dogma or history; they may or may not have happened and are not to be taken seriously. But though they are told mostly for amusement, they perform an important teaching function as well.

This is the eighth volume being added to the original seven-volume Philippine Folk Literature Series.Folk epics are long heroic narratives in verse which recount the adventures of tribal heroes and in the process express the customs, beliefs, and ideals of the people who sing them.

Philippine Folk Literature. The Legends constitutes Volume III of the author’s eight-volume Philippine Folk Literature Series.This volume focuses on the legend, which may simply be defined as an account of an extraordinary happening believed to have actually occurred. The Introduction gives a more detailed characterization of the legend, distinguishes it from the folktale, offers a system of classification, and gives a detailed description, with examples from the collection, of the different types of Philippine legends.

It describes their family links and their interlocking interests with other elites and foreign partners. The book also tells us about the values and behavior of the elite in politics and government, how they exploit the poverty and ignorance of the masses to win political power and what they do with that power.

Filipinos think and feel about our world and so, justify the way we live. Because of the ever-present danger of arrest and torture during the years of the Marcos dictatorship (1972 to 1986), the writers were driven to other forms or guises of the short story, such as fantasy and sci-fi, tale and parable. But whatever the form, you come away from the story with an image of a lifetime or a moment lived that the story’s words have evocatively forged; and that image sums up and makes into a whole the story’s meaningfulness by which its form has been achieved. That meaningfulness too is what raises the story to a universal plane, which is not the realm of eternal verities but rather, the site of everlasting questioning. Thus, illustratively, it would appear in a number of stories that the country’s true hero is the common tao for their underground spirit of endurance; the rebel, too, the NPA cadre, would be ennobled during those oppressive years of martial law by their struggle for a just and humane society.

Rather than looking at these folk illnesses as “superstitions,” Tan explains the broader social and cultural contexts of these concepts. Tan uses different social science perspectives to explore the deeper meanings of these illnesses, including their links to social norms, tensions, and conflicts. He emphasizes, too, that far from being static, these folk illnesses continue to evolve, influenced by western medicine as well as new images around health and illnesses that come with mass media and advertising. Finally, he calls attention to a medical ecological perspective, looking at how our changing relationships with the natural environment also lead to modifications in the folk illnesses.

ISBN 971-542-488-0 2006 238 pages $ 40.00

Tunugan: Four Essays on Filipino Music is intended to fill in a void in critical writing on Philippine musical literature-reflective and analytical discussions of important markers in contemporary Filipino musical life.

Watching dance is stepping into a pond. Writing on dance traces vanishing imprints beneath the waters. A dancing body disappears as it appears. Creating dance inscribes that body in a temporal-spatial landscape. Knowing dance in society hopes to understand a cultural and communal body, a crossing of currents of visible and invisible forces, even felt, if not reducible to a verbal discourse. This book is a first reader in Philippine dance, observed through forty-five years of viewing, reviewing, and doing. It is one observer’s understanding of what, where, or how is dance, and who makes it and why we dance.

Philippine National Hero Jose Rizal’s grandniece Asuncion Lopez-Bantug writes the vivid life story of the First Filipino as culled from family lore and personal anecdotes. This biography enables us to see, hear and feel how an acutely sensitive and prodigiously talented boy became the national hero of the Philippines in an epoch of great suffering and danger.

n this landmark history of Philippine maps and their cartographers, National Artist Carlos Quirino recounts how the concept of the Philippines emerged in the late sixteenth century as a nebulous speck in the vast Pacific Ocean and evolved in fits and starts over four centuries into its current iconography. The Philippines as a geographical and ideological concept is given form by a long line of illustrious cartographers from many cultures and times, among them Gerardus Mercator, Sebastian Münster, Robert Dudley, Pedro Murillo Velarde, and homegrown José Algué, SJ. Ranging from ancient Chinese scrolls to intricate atlases, Quirino writes a history full of heroics and everyday routine, of personal and national rivalries, of influential mistakes and brilliant insights. First published in a limited edition in 1959 and published a second time in Amsterdam, the third edition of Philippine Cartography showcases more than 120 maps from the finest collections in the Philippines and the most comprehensive bibliography of Philippine maps. This edition also contains a fresh and authoritative introduction by map collector and scholar Dr. Leovino Ma. Garcia. With its erudite text and unparalleled reproductions of rare maps and views, the book will delight everyone with an interest in antiquities, history, geography, and maps as instruments of power and vessels of beauty.
