TRANSLATING VERNACULAR CULTURE the Case of Ramon Muzones's Shri-Bishaya
Journal of English Studies and Comparative Literature TRANSLATING VERNACULAR CULTURE The Case of Ramon Muzones’s Shri-Bishaya Ma. Cecilia Locsin-Nava Every group of people makes an appeal to the past for its sense of cultural identity and its preferred trajectory for the future. However, the past is never accessible without translation, even within the same language. - K.W. Taylor No body of writing in Western Visayan literature has attracted as much attention, controversy, and translation as Monteclaro’s Maragtas. It was written by Don Pedro Monteclaro, the first municipal president of Miag-ao, Iloilo, local historian, and war hero in a mixture of Kinaray-a and Hiligaynon in 1901 at the end of the Filipino-American war when Ilonggos lost, all too soon, their hard-won independence from Spain to the Americans. However, it did not get published until 1907 in Kadapig sa Banwa (Ally of the Country), a nationalist newspaper in Iloilo city. By then, the zeitgeist of frustrated nationalism was finding expression in a number of nativist movements that sought to “revive and revalue” local language and culture. Significantly, reacting to “the privileging of the imported over the indigenous, English over local languages; writing over orality and linguistic culture over inscriptive culture,” (Ashcroft Griffiths and Tiffin 1983: 64) several advocacy groups were established. The first is Academia Bisaya (1901), established by regional writers and 60 Journal of English Studies and Comparative Literature journalists to promote among others, linguistic purism. Next, the standardization of Hiligaynon orthography and usage was promoted in order to protect it from further distortions introduced by Spanish friars, literary societies or talapuanan. -
Axis Relationships in the Philippines – When Traditional Subgrouping Falls Short1 R. David Zorc <[email protected]> AB
Axis Relationships in the Philippines – When Traditional Subgrouping Falls Short1 R. David Zorc <[email protected]> ABSTRACT Most scholars seem to agree that the Malayo-Polynesian expansion left Taiwan around 3,000 BCE and virtually raced south through the Philippines in less than one millenium. From southern Mindanao migrations went westward through Borneo and on to Indonesia, Malaysia, and upwards into the Asian continent (“Malayo”-), and some others went south through Sulawesi also going eastward across the Pacific (-“Polynesian”)2. If this is the case, the Philippine languages are the “left behinds” allowing at least two more millennia for multiple interlanguage contacts within the archipelago. After two proposed major extinctions: archipelago-wide and the Greater Central Philippines (Blust 2019), inter-island associations followed the ebb and flow of dominance, expansion, resettlement, and trade. Little wonder then that “unique” lexemes found on Palawan can appear on Mindoro or Panay; developments throughout the east (Mindanao, the Visayas, and southern Luzon) can appear in Central Luzon, and an unidentified language with the shift of Philippine *R > y had some influence on Palawan and Panay. As early as 1972, while writing up my dissertation (Zorc 1975, then 1977), I found INNOVATIONS that did not belong to any specific subgroup, but had crossed linguistic boundaries to form an “axis” [my term, but related to German “SPRACHBUND”, “NETWORK” (Milroy 1985), “LINKAGE” 3 (Ross 1988. Pawley & Ross 1995)]. Normally, INNOVATIONS should be indicative of subgrouping. However, they can arise in an environment where different language communities develop close trade or societal ties. The word bakál ‘buy’ replaces PAN *bəlih and *mayád ‘good’ replaces PMP *pia in an upper loop from the Western Visayas, through Ilonggo/Hiligaynon, Masbatenyo, Central Sorsoganon, and 1 I am deeply indebted to April Almarines, Drs. -

Democratization, Ethnic Minorities and the Politics of Self-Determination Reform
Democratization, Ethnic Minorities and the Politics of Self-Determination Reform Aslıhan Saygılı Submitted in partial fulllment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 ©2019 Aslıhan Saygılı All rights reserved ABSTRACT Democratization, Ethnic Minorities and the Politics of Self-Determination Reform Aslıhan Saygılı Conventional wisdom portrays ethnic minorities as likely victims of democratization who often fall prey to nationalist aggression fueled by power-seeking elites. Yet, history is re- plete with newly democratic states that have not only avoided targeted violence against ethnic "others" but also sought to reconcile with aggrieved ethnic minorities through con- cessions over self-determination. In light of conventional wisdom, this picture is puzzling and raises two important questions: 1) Why is self-determination reform so frequently observed during democratization periods? 2) Why do some democratizing states accom- modate minority demands for self-determination while others continue to neglect minority grievances, or worse, become a breeding ground for exclusionary nationalism and minority repression? This dissertation is dedicated to addressing these questions. To answer the rst question, I develop a novel theory of self-determination reform that explains the condi- tions under which government leaders develop both the capacity and incentives to intro- duce policies that devolve some degree of autonomy to separatist minorities. The theory pinpoints early democratization as a critical juncture where two key conditions neces- sary for self-determination reform - limited institutional constraints to rule and threats to elite survival - are most likely to be observed together. During early democratization, newly democratic governments are able to push forward radical policy changes without the meddling of institutionally empowered veto players, who typically gain more leverage as the democratic regime consolidates. -

A HISTORY of SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY in the PHILIPPINES by Olivia C
GE1713 A HISTORY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY IN THE PHILIPPINES by Olivia C. Caoili** Introduction The need to develop a country's science and technology has generally been recognized as one of the imperatives of socioeconomic progress in the contemporary world. This has become a widespread concern of governments especially since the post world war 11 years.1 Among Third World countries, an important dimension of this concern is the problem of dependence in science and technology as this is closely tied up with the integrity of their political sovereignty and economic self-reliance. There exists a continuing imbalance between scientific and technological development among contemporary states with 98 per cent of all research and development facilities located in developed countries and almost wholly concerned with the latter's problems2 Dependence or autonomy in science and technology has been a salient issue in conferences sponsored by the United Nations.3 It is within the above context that this paper attempts to examine the history of science and technology in the Philippines. Rather than focusing simply on a straight chronology of events, it seeks to interpret and analyze the interdependent effects of geography, colonial trade, economic and educational policies and socio-cultural factors in shaping the evolution of present Philippine science and technology. As used in this paper, science is concerned with the systematic understanding and explanation of the laws of nature. Scientific activity centers on research, the end result of which is the discovery or production of new knowledge.4 This new knowledge may or may not have any direct or immediate application. -

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. -
