The former is fully discussed by Juan Grau y Monfalcon, procurator of Filipinas at the Spanish court; the latter is related in various docu- ments, written mainly by participants in the Min- danao campaign. Certain minor documents relate to the administration of the islands and to the religious orders there. A letter from Corcuera (June 30, 1636) gives a brief account of the great ecclesiastical controversy of that year; we present it here, not so much for the new information contained in it (which is not ex- tensive) as for its being evidently the direct expres- sion of the governor's own opinions, and not (like some others of his reports) dictated more or less by other persons. Corcuera says that " the friars are lawless people, and he would rather fight the Dutch in Flandes than deal with them." He asks that the king will adjust these matters, or else send another governor to the islands, so that one of them may attend to ecclesiastical affairs and the other to tem- poral. Part of Cerezo's letter of August 10, 1634, to IO THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS [Vol. 27 the king is answered by the latter (October 10, 1636) in his despatches to Corcuera; it relates to military affairs - approving Cerezo's action, and giving some directions to Corcuera. A royal decree of August 14, 1636, commands the municipality of Manila to reimburse their pro- curator-general, Juan Grau y Monfalcon, for the time and money that he has spent in attending to their business at the Spanish court. Another docu- ment of this sort (November 6, 1636) gives Corcuera orders regarding certain matters which his prede- cessor Cerezo had laid before the Spanish govern- ment. A third document (of the same date) ap- proves the proceedings of Pedro de Heredia as governor of Terrenate, and promises reinforcements for the Spanish fort there. The noted Memorial informatorio (Madrid, 1637) of Juan Grau y Monfalcon, procurator-gen- eral for Manila and the Philippines at the Spanish court, is here presented; it concerns the important and long-debated question of the restrictions imposed on the trade of the Philippine Islands with Nueva Espana. Certain measures have been proposed to the Spanish government which the procurator re- gards as dangerous to the interests of the Philippines, and he hastens to urge against these proposals nu- merous forcible arguments. He claims that the adoption of the former must result in the ruin of the citizens. And thus the crown must either support the entire expense of the islands, or abandon its hold on them -the former a heavy tax on its means, the latter most damaging to its power and prestige. A royal commissioner has been sent to Acapulco to investigate the revenue frauds alleged there, which 1636-1637] PREFACE II greatly disturbs those who are engaged in trade, both in Nueva Espafia and in the islands. The proposal to abandon the islands has been revived; the pro- curator rehearses the arguments advanced for this, and vigorously attacks them, urging that the pos- session of Filipinas be maintained by the crown as is that of Flanders. He proceeds to represent the importance of the islands, adducing many arguments to show this: the dependence of the Malucos on Filipinas, the size and number of those islands, the greatness and importance of Manila, the mineral resources of the islands, and, above all, their com- merce. The procurator describes this commerce, both domestic and foreign. Under the former head he enumerates the chief products of the islands, the diverse peoples who inhabit them, and the number of Indians and foreigners paying tribute to the crown and to private persons. He emphasizes the impor- tance of the central location of the islands, and the restraint and hindrance that they constitute to the schemes of the Dutch for gaining control of the Oriental trade. Considering next the foreign trade of Filipinas, he represents it as far the most valuable part of that commerce, and gives a historical sketch of Oriental trade in general, with an enumeration of the commodities and products obtained therein, and much valuable information regarding the origin, quality, and prices of many goods. He relates how the Dutch were driven from Maluco, but afterward regained much of the spice region, notwithstanding the efforts of the Philippine Spaniards to prevent this. A list of the Dutch forts and factories in the archipelago is presented. From these data the pro- !2 THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS [Vol. 27 curator draws forcible arguments for the retention and support of the Philippine colony by the crown. This is fully justified by the importance of the clove trade, which otherwise would be lost to Spain; and by that of the Chinese trade, of which Filipinas enjoys the greater part. The maintenance of the Philippines will result in preserving the missionary conquests in the Far East, securing the safety of India, depriving the Dutch of their trade, relieving the expenses needed to preserve the American Span- ish colonies, and maintaining the prestige of the Spanish crown. The royal treasury alone cannot meet all the expenses of the islands, nor is it wise to allow them too much commerce with Nueva Espaiia; the king is therefore advised to combine these two methods of relief. For his guidance in this matter, valuable information is submitted by the procurator, regarding the expenses of maintaining and governing the Philippines (under eight different headings - civil, religious, and military - sufficiently itemized to give a clear outline of expenditures under each, and summarized at the end), the revenues of the colonial treasury, and the real nature of the deficit therein. He claims that the islands contribute more than what they cost, since they have to bear the great expenses of maintaining and defending Maluco against the Dutch (which includes more than one- third of all the expenses of Filipinas), and aid all public needs with their time, property, and lives, as volunteers - thus saving to the crown an enormous expense. The procurator asks that these services be duly rewarded by the crown, and recommends that for this purpose the magistracies in the islands be kept for rewarding such worthy citizens, and not 1636-1637] PREFACE 13 sold, as heretofore, at auction. But chiefly he urges the importance to them of the trade with Nueva Espafia which is chiefly based on that which Manila carries on with China and India. Efforts have been made in Spain to suppress the former commerce, as being detrimental to that of Spain and the Indias. He admits that this last is decreasing, but claims that Filipinas is not responsible therefor. The causes of that decline are, rather, the greatly lessened yield of the precious metals in America, the enormous de- crease of the Indian population in the colonies, the smaller consumption of goods among the Spaniards therein, and the exorbitant imposts and duties levied on the merchants.

HistORICAL CONTEXT AND PRELUDE INTRODUCTION Spanish colonialism in the Philippines began with conquest of the coastal stretches of Luzon and the central Visayas in the second half of the sixteenth century. During that time, the Spaniards came into direct contact and conflict with various groups professing Islam in the southern part of the Philippines in the Sulu chain of islands and Mindanao. Among the most important of these different people were the Taosug and Samal of the Sulu Archipelago. The Spanish officials and friars called them moros, a term that was originally used to describe the Muslim North Africans who, under Arab leadership, ruled the Iberian Peninsula from the eighth to the sixteenth centuries.

He was quietly released after bribing the Spanish commander, but seventeen others of his company were retained for their value as guides, pilots or interpreters or, in the case of three females, for other virtues. One of these was a slave who could speak Spanish or, more accu- rately, "a Moor who understood something of our Castilian language, who was called Pazeculan."l A later account identifies this slave as a pilot and a Makassarese who, "after having been captured and passed from one master to another, had wound up in the service of the prince of L~zon."~His special linguistic proficiency may have been the result of the vicissitudes of his captivity, and so may his faith, since Makassar did not adopt Islam until the next century.

  • Ang Epikseryeng Filipino: Diskurso Sa Amaya
    Ang Epikseryeng Filipino: Diskurso sa Amaya Ateneo de Naga University Vasil A.Victoria, Ph.D aiba sa mga nakamihasnan, nakasanayan at nakagawiang mga soap opera, soap operang nakabahag at epikserye ang tawag sa Amaya. Ito ang kauna-unahang panuring o bansag sa ganitong uri ng dugtungang palabas sa telebisyon. Ano nga ba ang epikserye? Higit na malalim na tanong, paano masasabing epikseryengK Filipino ang isang palabas? Bago tuluyang masagot ang mga tanong na nailatag, mahalagang taluntunin ang naging kasaysayan at anyo ng mga soap opera sa mga palabas- pantelebisyon. Sa disertasyon ni Reyes (1) kaniyang sinabi na isa ang soap Victoria... opera sa mga programang sinusundan ng mga manonood ng telebisyon. At dahil kinahuhumalingan ang mga ganitong klaseng programa, unti-unti na itong sinusundan hanggang sa makabuo na ng mga solidong tagapagtangkilik. May isang aspekto ang masasabing naging dahilan kung bakit ganoon na lamang ang naging tugon ng mga tao sa mga programang kanilang sinusundan. Bukod sa katotohanang may mga elemento ng pag-iidolo sa mga artista kung saan masasabing tunay na naggagandahang lalaki at babae ang mga bida, pumapasok din ang kapangyarihan ng wika bilang mekanismo ng pagkakaunawa at pagkahumaling. Tumutukoy ang soap opera sa mga dramang pantelebisyon na may sumusunod na pormulasyon, (1) problem (suliranin), (2) examination (pagtalakay sa suliranin), (3) catharsis (pamamaraan upang magupo ang suliranin) at (4) resolution (ang kasagutan o kaliwanagan sa suliranin). Ibinatay ang siklong nabanggit sa narrative drama ayon kay Aristotle. Tinawag naman itong soap sapagkat karaniwan, mga sabon ang nagiging pangunahing advertiser nito (Anger, 1999). Mula sa soap opera, nabuo naman ang taguring telenobela.

  • 110116 Ancient Entrepreneures
    1 Ancient Pinoy entrepreneurs Pilipino Express • Vol. 2 No. 17 Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada September 1, 2006 History books tell us that Ferdi- nand Magellan discovered the Philip- pines in 1521. The familiar story says that he landed in the Visayas and soon met his end when he tangled with Lapulapu in the Battle of Mactan. Because the books all tell us that Magellan discovered the Philippines, many people assume that the Philip- pine Islands were somehow isolated from their neighbours. We have an image of pre-colonial Filipinos just minding their own business, perhaps doing a little trading with visiting Chinese merchants, when suddenly, the Spaniards show up, claim the is- lands for their empire and drag the natives into the modern world. This idea is probably a remnant of the co- lonial eras of Spain and the United States when the people really were cut off from their neighbours in South East Asia due to the protectionist trade practices of the two successive occu- piers. However, it wasn’t like that before the Spaniards arrived. Some of the places where pre-colonial Filipinos did business Filipinos in Southeast Asia Europeans had already met some other Tagalogs to also settle in China mentioned that Luzon traders Filipinos at least ten years before Ma- Malacca.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Collecting the People: Textualizing Epics in Philippine History from the Sixteenth Century to the Twenty-First A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Brandon Joseph Reilly 2013 © Copyright by Brandon Joseph Reilly 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Collecting the People: Textualizing Epics in Philippine History from the Sixteenth Century to the Twenty-First by Brandon Joseph Reilly Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Michael Salman, Chair My dissertation, “Collecting the People: Textualizing Epics in Philippine History from the Sixteenth Century to the Twenty-First,” examines the study and uses of oral epics in the Philippines from the late 1500s to the present. State institutions and cultural activists uphold epics linked to the pre-colonial era as the most culturally authentic, ancient, and distinctive form of Filipino literature. These “epics” originated as oral traditions performed by culturally diverse groups. Before they could be read, they had to be written down and translated into, first, the colonial language of Spanish, and later, the national languages of English and Filipino. Beginning from the earliest Spanish colonial times, I examine the longer history of writing about, describing, summarizing, and beginning in the late nineteenth century, transcribing the diverse sorts of oral narratives that only in the twentieth century came to be called epics. I pay particular attention to how the instruments of pen, printing press, tape recorder, and video recorder, and media of preservation such as government report, published ii or unpublished colonial chronicle, scholarly textualization, coffee table book, or television show, have shaped the epics.

  • Critical Historical Consciousness & Decolonizing for Filipinx American
    Critical Historical Consciousness & Decolonizing for Filipinx American Undergraduates Dalya Amiel Perez A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2020 Reading Committee: Joe Lott, Chair Rick Bonus Kara Jackson Joy Williamson Lott Program Authorized to Offer Degree: College of Education 1 ©Copyright 2020 Dalya Amiel Perez 2 University of Washington Abstract Critical Historical Consciousness & Decolonizing for Filipinx American Undergraduates Dalya Amiel Perez Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Joe Lott College of Education This study seeks to understand how undergraduate Filipinx Americans develop historical consciousness and what the impacts of this are on their racial identity. The roots of Filipinx American historical erasure date back to colonization of the Philippines, both Spanish and U.S. occupations of the Philippines and continue to have a damaging effect on Filipinx Americans today (Leonardo & Matias, 2013). Evidence of this erasure is apparent in the absence of U.S. Philippine history from textbooks as well as the general absence of anything related to Filipinx Americans in contemporary pop culture or dominant narratives. Another form of erasure is in the invisiblity of Filipinx Americans under the racial category of Asian. This monolithic racial category obstructs possibilities to examine unique experiences, successes, and challenges Filipinx Americans as well as many other Asian groups face (Teranishi, 2010). In sum, the legacy of historical erasure, starting with colonization in the Philippines and the invizibilizing of Filipinos as Asian are factors that explain contemporary struggles for Filipinx Americans in higher educational contexts. My research seeks to examine the relationship between these phenomena and to explore what happens when Filipinx American undergraduates engage in learning critical colonial history.

  • 7. Fluckiger the Will to Trade.Pages
    THE WILL TO TRADE STEVEN JAMES FLUCKIGER The Will to Trade: The Bruneian Incorporation of the Pre-Hispanic Manila Region STEVEN JAMES FLUCKIGER MA Student in History University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Abstract While it is difficult to precisely trace the origins of Brunei’s establishment of the Manila region as an economic satellite, sufficient sources suggest that it occurred as a result of a marriage between Bruneian and Manila royalty. Bruneian oral histories suggest this was a forced event brought upon the Manila polities by Bruneian leaders. However, other historical sources of the Luzones, the inhabitants of the Manila region, show that the Luzones played a greater role in the maritime trade of Southeast Asia. This is in part due to the strategic location of the Manila entrepôt between China and the more southern islands of Southeast Asia. This location, coupled with the Luzones long exposure to maritime trade in the region, motivated the Luzones polities to intermarry with the Bruneians to gain greater access to Southeast Asian maritime markets.

  • A Theological Understanding of Power for Poverty
    A THEOLOGICAL UNDERSTANDING OF POWER FOR POVERTY ALLEVIATION IN THE PHILIPPINES WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO US-BASED FILIPINO PROTESTANTS IN TEXAS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of Asbury Theological Seminary Wilmore, Kentucky In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Dissertation Committee Dr. Gregg Okesson, Mentor Dr. Stephen Offutt, Reader By Yohan Hong April 2019 ABSTRACT This study calls attention to the sense of powerlessness of everyday people in the Philippines, and to the missional agency of US-based Filipino Protestants for the transformation of the Philippines. This research has been a journey to discover what kind of power is in play, how the fallen powers can be named and made visible, and then ultimately the ways through which power should be restored. In this process, I referred to the voices, perceptions, stories, and insights of US-based Filipino Protestants in Texas, in order to explore the causes of powerlessness. Through literature review and ethnographic research, two major causes of powerlessness are discovered: structural evil and social imaginary. On one hand, the sense of powerlessness is caused and perpetuated by structural evil. Given the context of the Philippines, structural evil is represented by oppressive and corruptive political power structures (the patrimonial oligarchy, patron-client relations, elitism, and a cacique democracy), and exploitative economic power structures (booty capitalism and neo-patrimonialism). On the other hand, the sense of powerlessness functions at some mythic level in relation to social imaginary. In this study, two different Filipino cultural values, Bahala na and Utang na loob, are investigated as the factors that cause and perpetuate a sense of powerlessness.
