A. de la H., Real Academia de la Historia INTRODUCTION This volume is entirely devoted to the bibliography of the Philippine Islands. In its narrowest significance, the term "Philippine bibliography" is restricted to the actual imprints of the Philippine Islands. By this term, however, we understand and include a much wider field -in addition to the above, all the printed books and pamphlets of any country dealing, in whole or in part, with the Philippine Islands; as well as all Manuscripts. Obviously, one cannot hope, much less expect, within the compass of one single volume, to cover the field as just outlined. Besides it is unnecessary to duplicate work that has been so efficiently done already. The recent bib- liographies published under the auspices of the Library of Congress, namely, those of A. P. C. Griffin and Dr. T. H. Pardo de Tavera, furnish excellent working bibliographies. The bibliographical works of Medina and Retana, although published in limited editions, are sufficiently accessible. The latest work of the latter, Aparato bibliografico, offers the most extensive array of Philippine imprints yet listed. The catalogues (especially vols, iv and v) of Pedro Vindel, the Madrid bookseller, can be used to distinct advantage, and are easily obtainable. The Adiciones of Perez and Giiemes supplement Medina's and Retana's work on the imprints of Manila and the Philippines. Finally, the bibliographical comments of James A. LeRoy, published in The Philippine Islands, I4pj-l8p8 9 Vol. LII, furnish the most comprehensive practical working list of Philippina for the later period of the Spanish regime that has yet been attempted. It is to be observed that the above bibliographies, and all Philippine bibliographies generally, while they do note or publish some few MSS., with but few exceptions (notably Llorens Asensio's Primer vuelta al mundo) are devoted to the listing of printed matter. Consequently, it has been deemed expedient, in the present work, to limit our endeavors more directly to the field of MSS. - a field that offers so rich a source for the history of the Philippines. Yet, in order that one may find within our volume complete material for a thorough bibliographical survey of the Philippines, we have IO THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS devoted the first part of our work to printed titles. We make no pretense of listing the titles usually found in bibliographies. Our first object, as seen by the first three divisions of printed titles, is to point out the sources for a complete bibliographical study of the Philippines. Those three divi- sions are: I. Philippine bibliographies, and important bibliographical lists; -this in small compass covering the entire field of imprints, so far as bibliographies have been compiled. II. Other bibliographies; cata- logues of public and private libraries; and sales catalogues; -this division showing the recognition of Philippine titles by general and special bibliog- raphers; to some extent the ownership of Philippina; and the demand and supply as demonstrated by the sales catalogues. III. Books, pam- phlets, etc., containing bibliographical lists, notes, etc.; -this division showing titles in many different lines, some of great rarity and value. It must again be noted that we do not list the actual titles, but the sources where the titles may be found. The fourth division of printed titles is the only one that can be classed under the head of pure or general bibliography. This we have entitled "Books, pamphlets, etc. (mostly published in whole or in part in The Philippine Islands, 1493-1898)" The fact that we have used them, in whole or in part, as documents for our series constitutes the first reason for their appearance. We have introduced here a very few titles that we have not used, because of their scarcity or importance for the study of the history of the Philippine Archipelago, such as, for instance, Rivadeneira's Historia of 160 1. A special feature of the last division is the location of the rarer titles. However, we have made no attempt to cite prices, for since American occupation, prices have been more or less arti- fically raised, and the present price is not a sure index of the value of the books. To many of the printed titles, we append critical and other notes; and frequent references to the various Philippine bibliographies admit of a study of the critical notes of others. In this portion of our work, as in the manuscript division, we aim rather at the practical, and our attempt is to furnish a good working bibliography, and not one calculated merely to meet the tastes of the bibliophile. We have personally examined most of the titles of the printed material listed by us, a process that has involved an immense amount of work, in- asmuch as the various books are not to be found in one collection. This has necessitated research in many libraries; and we are able to assert that no- where else have bibliographical aids to the study of the bibliography of the Philippine Islands been so extensively cited. We have made no attempt to list the many books that we have used for annotation, unless such books contain bibliographical information. Many general bibliographies and many special bibliographies contain Philippine titles. Many catalogues BIBLIOGRAPHY-INTRODUCTION * l of private libraries also contain titles. Especially is this true of libraries of Americana, which generally list some Magalhaes and Pigafetta material. While we have listed some libraries of Americana we make no effort to list all of them. It should also be noted that the ecclesiastical provinces of the Philippines extended to China and other parts of the Asiatic mainland, so that it is quite natural to expect that bibliographies of China and Japan and other parts of southern Asia should often contain Philippina. The student should also note that many collections of voyages, ecclesiastical books, etc., contain Philippine matter. Some of the titles cited contain very few items of Philippina, but some are of great importance. In the arrangement of the titles to books and pamphlets, we have adopted the strict chronological order. For a study of the early history of printing in the Philippines, and its de- velopment, the reader will find useful matter in Medina's Imprenta en Ma- nila (Santiago de Chile, 1896); and in Retana's Imprenta (Madrid, 1899), Introduction, col. 5-50. See also the rules of printing as published by the latter in vol. i of his Archivo. These rules were promulgated in Manila, February 16, 1857. ^ seems reasonably clear that the printing press was established in the Philippines as early as 1593, for in that year, Gomez Perez Dasmariiias licensed the printing of the Christian Doctrine in Taga- log and Chinese (see his letter of June 20, 1593, in our vol. ix, p. 68), although no copies of this have come down to the present day. It must be noted, however, that from the language of the letter above cited, it may be assumed that the printing press had been established before the year 1593. However, the implied reasoning of Perez and Guemes (Adiciones, pp. xxi- xxiv) following the statement of Beristain de Sousa, that the Arte y Vocabu- lario de la lengua tagala of Juan de Quinones was printed at Manila in 158 1, cannot be supported. The real history of printing in the Philippines, in which it seems that the religious orders had more to do than anyone else, has not yet been written, although it is worth careful study. MANUSCRIPTS The bibliography of MSS. forms the main part of the present volume. Important as is our citation of authorities citing Philippine titles, we believe this to be our chief contribution to Philippine bibliography. We do not hesitate to assert that we have presented more manuscript Philippine titles than all other bibliographers together.

    Doubling the World Enough for us that the hidden half of the globe is brought to light, and the Portuguese daily go farther and farther beyond the equator. Thus shores unknown will soon become accessible; for one in emulation of another sets forth in labors and mighty perils. —PETER MARTYR (1493) The 1400s in a Nutshell: Discovering the Unknown In the West: § Ptolemy (geography) is revived § The Portuguese begin the first state sponsored continuous exploration § Spain Responds (via efforts of Christopher Columbus) § A new continent is discovered In the Middle East: • The Arabs stagnate; maintain their roles as middle men traders In the East: • The Chinese explore one-third of the planet; then stop cold THE blocking of the land paths proved a godsend. Driven by new incentives to go to sea, Europeans would discover waterways to everywhere. From the whole period of the Great Interruption, the fourth until the fourteenth century, no mariner's charts survive. In that age of widespread illiteracy, sailors passed on their traditional knowledge by word of mouth. From about 1300, however, we do find Mediterranean sea charts (portolanos), offering useful details for the next generation of mariners. To reach Asia by water from the Mediterranean countries meant leaving the closed for the open sea. Mediterranean voyages were mostly coastwise sailing, which meant relying on personal experience of those particular places—local winds and currents, familiar landmarks, well-known offshore islands and the distinctive silhouette of a neighboring mountain. When Portuguese sailors advanced southward down the coast of Africa, they left behind all familiar landmarks.

Combining methodologies of social and economic history, this study provides new insight into patterns of empire-building in maritime Southeast Asia and the Pacific. It highlights Manila’s previously neglected role as an intra-Asian trading hub and reveals how its commercial connections to Batavia, Macao, and other regional port cities, forged by men like Gaspar de León, ultimately strengthened Spain’s Asian empire. Keywords: Philippines, Intra-Asian Trade, Iberian Asia, Agent of Empire, Social Network Analysis. Resumen Ésta es una aproximación microhistórica a la vida de Tomé Gaspar de León, un cristiano nativo del sur de la India, quien a mediados del siglo XVIII se convertiría en uno de los más exitosos comerciantes intraasiáticos de Manila, así como uno de los más confiados agentes de la monarquía española en Asia.

  • Newsletter of the District of Asia
    Newsletter of the District of Asia Oct - Dec 2001 A short Philippine History before the 1898 Revolution In search of spices When Ferdinand Magellan, a veteran Portuguese soldier, returned from the Spice Islands of the Moluccas, he approached the Portuguese King with a proposal to find a westward route from Portugal to the rich islands of Spices, on the opposite side of the world. The King however, did not take advantage of the offer, and temporized. In the meantime, Magellan offered his services to the King of Spain the great Charles V, who was soon to be raised to the dignity of Holy Roman Emperor. In Spain, funds were needed for the treasury. Spices were not cheap in Europe and there is a high demand, so commerce with them is one of the best solutions for raising the necessary funds. The King of Spain thus provided Magellan with a fleet of five ships: Trinidad, Victoria, Concepcion, Santiago and San Antonio. On August 10, 1519 the fleet sailed westward from Seville in search of a passageway to the Moluccas. It was manned by a crew of 270 men and there were 2 chaplains both were secular priests: Father Pedro de Valderama and another one a French by nationality who was latter abandoned by Magellan in the coast of Brazil. After various incidents suffered from men and the elements as it sailed across the Atlantic Ocean and down the coast of South America, the fleet reached in the last days of October the passage which now bears the name of the leader of this expedition.

  • Basques in the Americas from 1492 To1892: a Chronology
    Basques in the Americas From 1492 to1892: A Chronology “Spanish Conquistador” by Frederic Remington Stephen T. Bass Most Recent Addendum: May 2010 FOREWORD The Basques have been a successful minority for centuries, keeping their unique culture, physiology and language alive and distinct longer than any other Western European population. In addition, outside of the Basque homeland, their efforts in the development of the New World were instrumental in helping make the U.S., Mexico, Central and South America what they are today. Most history books, however, have generally referred to these early Basque adventurers either as Spanish or French. Rarely was the term “Basque” used to identify these pioneers. Recently, interested scholars have been much more definitive in their descriptions of the origins of these Argonauts. They have identified Basque fishermen, sailors, explorers, soldiers of fortune, settlers, clergymen, frontiersmen and politicians who were involved in the discovery and development of the Americas from before Columbus’ first voyage through colonization and beyond. This also includes generations of men and women of Basque descent born in these new lands. As examples, we now know that the first map to ever show the Americas was drawn by a Basque and that the first Thanksgiving meal shared in what was to become the United States was actually done so by Basques 25 years before the Pilgrims. We also now recognize that many familiar cities and features in the New World were named by early Basques. These facts and others are shared on the following pages in a chronological review of some, but by no means all, of the involvement and accomplishments of Basques in the exploration, development and settlement of the Americas.

    Justice Antonio T. Carpio The views expressed in this presentation are the personal opinion of the author and do not necessarily represent the position of the Philippine Government. China’s 9-dashed Lines China’s new “national boundaries” under the 9-dashed lines Macclesfield Bank Nine-dashed Lines Map Submitted by China to UN in 2009 China did not explain the legal basis for the dashes. The dashes had no fixed coordinates. In 2013, China released a new map of China, adding a 10th dash on the eastern side of Taiwan. In its 2013 map, China claims the 10 dashed lines are its “national boundaries” without explaining the legal basis or giving the fixed coordinates for the dashes. The 2013 China map was published by SinoMaps Press, under the jurisdiction of China’s State Bureau of Surveying and Mapping. This means the 2013 Map is an official Chinese government map. In its Note Verbale of June 7, 2013 to China, the Philippines stated it "strongly objects to the indication that the nine- dash lines are China's national boundaries in the West Philippine Sea/South China Sea.” China’s New Map with 10 dashes (2013) Printed in a 1947 map, China’s 9-dashed lines have no fixed coordinates. Originally 11 dashes, two dashes in the Gulf of Tonkin were removed in 1950 without explanation. In 2013, one dash was added east of Taiwan. The new 2013 China map, with 10 dashed lines, is printed by SinoMaps Press. What is the Effect of China’s “National Boundaries” under the 9-dashed Lines? The Philippines loses about 80% of its EEZ facing the West Philippine Sea, including the entire Reed Bank and part of the Malampaya gas field.

Diane Barnes, Thesis Advisor Date Dr. David Simonelli, Committee Member Date Dr. Helene Sinnreich, Committee Member Date Dr. Salvatore A. Sanders, Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT Filipino culture was founded through the amalgamation of many ethnic and cultural influences, such as centuries of Spanish colonization and the immigration of surrounding Asiatic groups as well as the long nineteenth century’s Race of Nations. However, the events of 1898 to 1914 brought a sense of national unity throughout the seven thousand islands that made the Philippine archipelago. The Philippine-American War followed by United States occupation, with the massive domestic support on the ideals of Manifest Destiny, introduced the notion of distinct racial ethnicities and cemented the birth of one national Philippine identity. The exploration on the Philippine American War and United States occupation resulted in distinguishing the three different analyses of identity each influenced by events from 1898 to 1914: 1) The identity of Filipinos through the eyes of U.S., an orientalist study of the “us” versus “them” heavily influenced by U.S.

Students of Southeast Asian history have had little to say about the historical role played by the Chinese mestizo in that region. Although studies of the Chinese in Southeast Asia have devoted some attention to the position of native-born Chinese as opposed to immigrant Chinese, the native-born Chinese of mixed Chinese- native ancestry is rarely singled out for specific treatment. Perhaps this is because in most parts of Southeast Asia the Chinese mestizos (to use the Philippine term for persons of mixed Chinese-native ancestry) have not been formally and legally recognized as a separate group — one whose membership is strictly defined by genealogical considerations rather then by place of birth, and one which, by its possession of a unique combination of cultural characteristics, could be easily distinguished from both the Chinese and the native com­ munities.
