The collaborative work put in by the development team has ensured that each activity does not only facilitate acquisition of 21st Century skills but shall also take into consideration the circumstances, needs and well-being of each learner, especially at this time of anguish and uncertainty. Rest assured, that we have not compromised learning through this modality but that all essential competencies are covered; the same way they will be tackled substantially in succeeding modules. For the Learner: Real-life stories could be as fascinating as the fairy tales and nursery rhymes from your childhood or the online and printed novels you read in the present. The characters, the setting and the action may even be more interesting if you know how to captivate your readers through escalating the thrill in a perspective that engages them; painting colorful images with metaphors or imagery as in poetry; or setting the mood and anticipation as in the dialogues in drama. The challenge is, even while integrating these elements and devices, how you do not deviate from events as they happen in reality. As you are expected to breathe life to your experiences by using literary elements and devices, Module 1 shall begin with a discussion of the different genres and the dominant literary conventions identified with each. ii To ensure that each lesson is a full, fun and enriching experience, it is divided into the following parts: This introduces the learner What I Need where one is at in terms of to Know Competencies, Objectives, and Skills to prosper with in the subject matter. What I Know This checks the learner’s perception on the lesson. This connects the What’s In understanding on the previous topic to ideas of the present topic. This is a start-up of the What’s New lesson thru stimulus activities that sets the mood into the topic. This part discusses, unlocks, What is It and guides the learners on the topic. This contains self – checked What’s More activities to set into the topic and develop knowledge and skills being asked. This section enriches the What I have learning through a question / Learned activity. This consists of an activity What I Can Do that applies the learner’s learning into day – to – day events in life. iii This area checks the Assessment mastery / skills toward the topic.

You might have figured out by now that drama and short stories (often referred to as fiction) are both written as prose. In this lesson let us find out more how these two magically transport us to the experiences of others. LET’S TAKE A BLAST From ThE PAST! Literature is a limitless library of human experiences that is divided into genres such as short stories (often referred to as fiction), poetry, drama and nonfiction. Each genre has dominant literary conventions or elements that distinguish it from all others. There are also some elements and devices used that are common among genres. In this lesson, we shall look into common elements of fiction and drama and how they differ. WhAT’S IN “Drama, None or Both” Instructions: Write D, if the characteristic is unique to drama; N, if it is not a characteristic of either drama or short story and B, if it is common to both genres. Write your answer on the blank provided. ____ 1. It is performed on stage. ____ 2. It follows a sequence of events: exposition, rising action, climax, falling action and denouement. ____ 3. It follows a repeated pattern of meter and rhyme. ____ 4. It is divided into acts. ____ 5. It can use foreshadowing to give a hint or warning on what would happen next in the story or flashback to present a past event for readers to understand the present. 3 How are you doing so far? Let us look more closely at elements of both fiction and drama. WhAT’S NEW Instructions: Read the following Cebuano folk tale and take note of details. BACUNAWA AND THE SEVEN MOONS Bathala was making his rounds one cool evening when the moon was all- lit up when suddenly, he again hears the sweet giggles of the six other moons he had lost one by one due to a monster’s greedy obsession. Thanks to the heartless Bacunawa, the peace and joy that had once ruled over the earth and sky are now tainted with fear and vigilance. Then, the desperate cries of Bathala’s people came ringing back again in his ears as if it was happening all over.

    SARE, Vol. 58, Issue 1 | 2021 Making Space for Myth: Worldbuilding and Interconnected Narratives in Mythspace Francis Paolo Quina University of the Philippines-Diliman, Quezon City, the Philippines Abstract The comics medium has long proven to be fertile ground for worldbuilding, spawning not only imaginary worlds but multiverses that have become international transmedial franchises. In the Philippines, komiks (as it is called locally) has provided the Filipino popular imagination with worlds populated by superheroes, super spies, supernatural detectives, and creatures from different Philippine mythologies. The komiks series Mythspace, written by Paolo Chikiamco and illustrated by several artist-collaborators, takes the latter concept, and launches it into outer space. Classified by its own writer as a “Filipino space opera” consisting of six loosely interconnected stories, Mythspace presents a storyworld where the creatures of Philippine lower mythologies are based on various alien species that visited the Philippines long ago. The article will examine the use of interconnected narratives as a strategy for worldbuilding in Mythspace. Drawing from both subcreation and comic studies, this article posits that interconnected narratives is a worldbuilding technique particularly well-suited to comics, and that the collaborative nature of the medium allows for a diversity of genres and visual styles that can be used by future komiks creators to develop more expansive storyworlds. Keywords: comics studies, subcreation studies, storyworlds, Mythspace, the Philippines The comics medium has long proven to be fertile ground for worldbuilding. It has spawned not only storyworlds in the pages of comic books and graphic novels but given birth to multiverses of storytelling across several media.

  • Notes on Philippine Divinities
    NOTES ON PHILIPPINE DIVINITIES F. LANDA JocANO Introduction THIS PAPER IS ETHNO-HISTORICAL IN NATURE. IT IS DE- signed to put together representative pantheons of different Philippine divinities. The materials for this purpose have been gathered from historical documents, ethnographiC monographs, and Held observations conducted by the writer and other fieldworkers among different indi- genous religious groups in the various parts of the country. No sociological analysis of these cosmologies or their manifest theo- logies is made except to point out that their persistence through time - from the early Spanish contact to the present - indicates they are closely interwoven with the lifeways of the people. The divinities described here are, as they were in the past, conceived as beings with human characteristics. Some of them are good and others are evil. Many stories about the workings of these supernatural beings are told. They participate in the affairs of men. These relationships reinforce local beliefs in the power of the supernatural beings, as those people who participate in community affairs witness how these deities, invoked during complicated rituals, cure an ailing patient or bring about suc- cess in hunting, fishing, and agriculture. Some of these deities are always near; others are inhabitants of far-off realms of the skyworld who take interest in human affairs only when they are invoked during proper ceremonies which compel them to come down to earth. In this connection, the spirits who are always near, are the ones often called upon by the people for help. These supernatural beings are led by the highest ranking deity and not by any one supreme divinity, for each has specific and some independent function.

  • THE RECOVERY of EGALITARIAN LEADERSHIP by Cynthia Datu Introduction
    FILLIPINAS AND THE CHURCH: THE RECOVERY OF EGALITARIAN LEADERSHIP By Cynthia Datu Introduction The Filipino Church needs to hearken back to its roots. To be Filipino and Christian is to be egalitarian. Unfortunately this is not always the case when it comes to the role of women in church leadership. Filipino leadership needs to rediscover both reasons for the loss of egalitarianism within their churches and challenge a misguided belief that that the traditional indigenous worldview supports the supremacy of the male. To assist such a search/challenge the article begins with two case studies in the Faith Evangelical Church of the Philippines, a denomination taken as representative of the larger Philippine Evangelical Church in spite of its slightly liberal position on female leadership. Tracing the historical causes of female discrimination in the Philippines, the article reveals how Western biases impinged upon the Church and carry over to the present generation. There is a discrepancy between the perceived high status of women in society and their real status as male subordinates, including certain conditions manifested in the Philippine Evangelical Church. The article closes with recommendations for granting women greater participation in church leadership and achieving balance between males and females leadership. A Narrative on Filipinas in the Church: Two Cases in the Faith Evangelical Church of the Philippines (FECP) In 1999 Joy Pabito was a fresh graduate of Faith Bible College (FBC) and about to embark on a year of internship at Faith Fellowship Ministry Center in Quezon City. When asked what degree she had earned, she replied, “Bachelor of Theology.” She was a Pastor? With a small smirk, she answered, “So they say.

  • Toward a Model for Historicising Translation in Hispanic Filipino
    Translation (in/of/as) history: toward a model for historicising translation in Hispanic Filipino literature The International Journal for Translation & Interpreting Research trans-int.org Marlon James Sales University of Michigan, Ann Arbor/ KU Leuven [email protected] DOI: 10.12807/ti.111202.2019.a04 Abstract: The task of researching the history of translation within the framework of a national literature overlaps with the task of interrogating the uses of translation in imagining a nation’s history. Although translation may be represented in this context as a neutral and unproblematic search for equivalence between languages, translational acts have been employed, either wittingly or unwittingly, to privilege a past and inscribe it into the accepted national narrative. Such is the role of translation in the history of Hispanic Filipino literature. In this article I argue that the endeavour of writing a translation history using Hispanic Filipino texts is called upon to examine translation in history, of history and as history, that is, how translation operates as a material, method and mode of commemoration. Translation is considered here as a fundamental component in the production and mediation of a text. It fulfils a gatekeeping function through which historical information is repatriated into the national consciousness. Keywords: history of translation, Spanish Philippines, literatura hispanofilipina, Jose Rizal, Pedro Paterno, Isabelo de los Reyes 1. Introduction The Philippines is an underrepresented area in the study of Hispanism. While there is an awareness about the interconnections between this Southeast Asian archipelago and those regions we readily identify as Hispanic, attempts to investigate Filipino Hispanism are sparse and are often tinged with colonial nostalgia.

    SARE, Vol. 58, Issue 1 | 2021 A Convergence of Filipino Worlds: An Onomastic Reading of Edgar Calabia Samar’s Janus Silang Novels Maria Rhodora G. Ancheta University of the Philippines-Diliman, Quezon City, the Philippines Abstract Edgar Calabia Samar’s Janus Silang book series is a significant body of contemporary young adult fantasy novels in the Philippines. Samar’s ambitious series that successfully melds alternate online tech -worlds, everyday Filipino life, and ancient supernatural, god-inhabited worlds, is worthy of study. In creating this fantasy world, the Janus Silang series underscores the richness of Filipino mythology and lore by cohesively layering these lived worlds by way of spatial and temporal play. This paper wishes to study the value of this “world(s)-building”, entering this by way of the study of onomastics, the study of proper names of all kinds and the origins of names. Using both toponomastics and anthroponomastics, or the study of place names and human naming, respectively, this inventive, powerful focus on naming solidifies the Janus Silang series’ development of unique Filipino characters and narratives and its reintroduction of the cultures of its imaginary worlds for young, contemporary Filipino and global readers. Keywords: Janus Silang, Filipino mythology, literary onomastics, anthroponyms, toponyms Edgar Calabia Samar’s Janus Silang book series is a significant body of contemporary young adult fantasy novels in the Philippines.

  • Cultural and Religious Dynamics of the Church in the Philippines1 Kenneth D
    Andrews University Seminary Studies, Vol. 46, No. 1, 109-119. Copyright © 2008 Andrews University Press. CULTURAL AND RELIGIOUS DYNAMICS OF THE CHURCH IN THE PHILIPPINES1 KENNETH D. MULZAC Andrews University The Philippines consist of 7,250 islands. About 700 of these are populated with approximately 89.5 million people, at an average population growth rate of 1.8 percent per year. These citizens represent a unique blend of diversity (in languages, ethnicity, and cultures) and homogeneity.2 Despite this diversity, one common element that characterizes Filipinos is a deep abiding interest in religion that permeates all strata of society. Fully 99.3 percent of the population identify with a specific religion (see Table below).3 The overwhelming Christian majority makes the Philippines the only country in Asia that is predominantly Christian. Christian behavior, therefore, is influenced not only by the convictions of the respective faith communities, but also by certain psychosocial values held in common by the Filipino people. In order to understand the Filipino Christian, these values must be apprehended and appreciated.4 As one Filipino thinker has noted, we must 1I am writing as an outside observer. From September 2000 to November 2004, I taught religion at the Adventist International Institute of Advanced Studies, a graduate school owned and operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church that is located in the Philippines. In an attempt to understand the Filipino mindset and possible response to teaching, preaching, and evangelism, I undertook this investigation. I discovered that this is a wide field that has been properly studied and documented, though in scattered places.

    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.
