However, the beginnings of anything resembling a professional market for writing in English would not be realized until the 1920s with the founding of other newspapers and magazines like the Philippines Herald in 1920, the Philippine Education Magazine in 1924 renamed Philippine Magazine in 1928 , and later the Manila Tribune , the Graphic , Woman s Outlook , and Woman s Home Journal.

Fresh from studies in American universities, usually as Ful- bright or Rockefeller scholars, a number of these writers introduced New Criticism to the country and applied its tenets in literature classes and writing workshops. In this way were born the Silliman National Writers Workshop.

Flores The criticism of Alice Guillermo presents an instance in which the encounter of the work of art resists a series of possible alienations even as it profoundly acknowledges the integrity of distinct form. The critic in this situation attentively dwells on the material of this form so that she may be able to explicate the ecology and the sociality without which it cannot concretize. The work of art, therefore, becomes the work of the world, extensively and deeply conceived. Such present-ness is vital as the critic faces the work in the world and tries to ramify that world beyond what is before her. This is one alienation that is calibrated. The work of art transpiring in the world becomes the work of the critic who lets it matter in language, freights it and leavens it with presence so that human potential unerringly turns plastic, or better still, animate: Against the cold stone, tomblike and silent, are the living glances, supplicating, questioning, challenging, or speaking—the eyes quick with feeling or the movements of thought, the mouths delicately shaping speech, the expressive gestures, and the bodies in their postures determined by the conditions of work and social circumstance.

Kwan Laurel English has been in the Philippines for a hundred years, yet some of the best Filipino writers in English express ambivalence as to what should be done with it. This ambivalence is a product largely of a particular type of nationalist rhetoric that challenges the use of English in the Phil- ippines. The paper argues for the need to understand English as a global language and to claim Philippine English as our own language. Rather than protract the language debate, the need is to generate a Philippine literature in English, Filipino, or any language that can spark the imagi- nation of Filipinos and promote a wider readership. KEYWORDS: Englishes, Philippine English, Philippine literature, Fili- pino writers Just a year before the Marcoses would be booted out of power by the People Power uprising of 1986, the nationalist dscourse on the lan- guage issue was reaching one of its peaks.

  • Place and Cultural Identity in Joaquin's the Mass of St. Sylvestre
    Volume 7 – Issue 1 – Summer 2020 Place and Cultural Identity in Joaquin’s The Mass of St. Sylvestre Mohammad Hossein Abedi Valoojerdi University of Perpetual Help System Dalta Las Piñas, Philippines Abstract Nick Joaquin (Nicomedes Márquez Joaquín, 1917-2004) is widely known for his interest in the Spanish colonial period and its culture in the Philippines. He employed the “Walled City” or Intramuros (Old Manila) as the setting for The Mass of St. Sylvestre (1946) and many other stories. Intramuros not only has an important role in Joaquin’s short story as a physical place, but also conveys identity elements and cultural meanings. This cathedral city has a glorious but neglected past and Joaquin, by retelling the stories from this magnificent past, recalls the link between Filipino identity and the formation of culture during the period of Spanish colonialism. His approach to the issue of identity corresponds to what Stuart Hall classifies as the “Enlightenment Subject” (1996, p. 597). This paper attempts to explore the role that place and the experience of landscape play as markers of cultural identity in The Mass of St. Sylvestre. Keywords: Joaquin, place, landscape experience, cultural identity 37 Volume 7 – Issue 1 – Summer 2020 Introduction Obviously due to his status as national hero, many scholars have studied the works of Rizal (José Protasio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda, 1861-1896), yet only a few have examined the work of Joaquin, presumably a writer as important as Rizal. Among those few, even fewer have paid much attention to The Mass of St. Sylvestre, a work that challenges deep-rooted ideas and ranges across an array of complex concepts to upend assumptions about Filipino culture, confronting the reader with a variety of unconventional potential interpretations.
