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.

  • Contesting Land and Identity in the Periphery: the Moro Indigenous People of Southern Philippines*
    Contesting Land and Identity In The Periphery: The Moro Indigenous * People of Southern Philippines MYRTHENA L. FIANZA Department of Political Studies Mindanao State University (Main campus, Marawi) Philippines INTRODUCTION Over the past decades, the resurgence of intergroup conflict in the Philippines has led to a significant current in the direction of ethnicity and identity in the study of land tenure problems where the post-colonial state is involved, particularly in land use and resource allocation among indigenous communities. In the Philippine contemporary tenure situation, it is necessary to look at other categories or identities to understand how social unrest has been catalyzed in other areas of the country, as state action and politics in the center are also presently being shaped, more than ever before, by the demands of ethnicity or indigenous voices at the fringe or periphery. This course leads to approaching conflicts as rooted to the land question triggered by the issue of equitable access to land and resources or rights to a territory that contesting groups view should be acquired or reclaimed not solely on the basis of economic rights to private property in the Western liberal sense, or from a more progressive standpoint of redistributive (“land to the tiller”) reform, but as a determinant of the survival of a community and their culture, the basis of their identity as a people. The study proceeds from the perspective that views land as “tied up with the very ethnicity of indigenous peoples, inasmuch as their distinct cultures have developed in interaction with and in adaptation to specific environments” (Cariňo,1994: 5).

    Running Head: ROLES PLAYED BY MERANAO WOMEN IN THE FORMATION 295 3 ICLLCE 2015 70 Alyanah Pantao Roles Played by Meranao Women in the Formation of Meranao of Society; Breaking the Stereotypes Alyanah Pantao Department English, Mindanao State University, Second Street, MSU Marawi City, Philippines Mindanao State University Alyanah Pantao [email protected] ABSTRACT The study aimed to identify the different roles played by Meranao women in Marawi City, how their roles are portrayed and how it is different to traditional Meranao women. The main objective was to bring into light the early position of Meranao women in Muslim society to enlighten us what are the changes happened over the years. Using cultural feminism, the study correct the impressionists adverse picture of the Meranao women as completely subservient to their men, and as giving little importance to their role in life—facts which have consequently assigned them to a secondary status in society. Among the roles identified which broke the stereotype Meranao women are the following: breadwinner, entrepreneur, educator and activist. Furthermore, the author find out that the Meranao women play an important role in political arena such a solving conflict and ridu (family feud), organizers of community services, activist of peace process. Majority of the roles they played showed how Meranao women now have started to reassess their rights as they realized that they have more potential that they have been allowed to use in a male dominated society. The woman now assumes new roles to liberate her and be recognized. These new roles they now assume gave them a new identity to recognize their roles in Meranao society.

However, in Southeast Asian studies, less work has been committed to understanding the cultural politics of government-sponsored education in the context of colonialism, nation building, and/or modernity. Within this body of literature, few scholars have sought to . .... examine the state school in cases where it has' been challenged, questioned, or resisted. Additionally, there is a persisting. tendency to. observe the development of modem education from the perspective of the center, majority, and elite, consequently paying , " scant attention to the making of the margins and the historical experiences unique to their schooling environments.,. Therefore, based on arcIiival research and preliminary fieldwork, this thesis aims to explore the cultural, political, and historical contexts of modern education through two case studies: the first in southern Thailand and the second in the southern Philippines.

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.

    Desiree Quintero Dansuer Bantugen: Gendering of the Filipino Hero DESIREE QUINTERO University of Hawaii at Manoa Introduction With the stage black, a melody of a chant filters hauntingly through the air. One cannot decipher if it is a woman chanting, or perhaps a flute rendering a simi- lar sound. A lively, bouncing kobing1 enters the melodic soundscape. Rattling engenders anticipation in a suspense-filled theater. The thumping of a primal drum and the clashing/crashing of gongs generate sounding in a chaotic frenzy, which makes its way into for the procession from stage left; it is led by two bare-chested men carrying 10 foot poles with flag like tassels hanging from what looks like large pointy “rice hats.” Three Figure 1: malong2-clad ballerinas follow closely behind, execut- Poster of ing coupé en dehor pirouettes alternately left, right, left, the right twirling their woven palm leaf fans. They are Darangen ni Bantugen partnered with three men with arms in a stylized fourth position3, wearing spandexed purple knee length tights with a silver sash/apron hanging from hips. The sash is perhaps a fusion of an Ancient Roman warrior costume and a “native” g-string? A line of maidens in long or- ange dresses and gold okir4-esque tiaras walk in smil- ingly, arms in a Bayanihan5 Pangalay style fourth ettes. The men, choreographed in a musical queue, with position, with flexed wrists. Kolintang6 gongs tinkle in legs splayed in second position, imitate the pounding the background as the “King” strides in, donned in a drums in the air, as if manifesting what has become a black waist-length jacket, knee length tights, gold very “native” or “primal” atmosphere.
