It has been more than a millennium since mankind ventured to the stars beyond home, and while it has been a tumultuous history—at the very least—we have discovered, explored, and conquered worlds that our ancestors could only dream about. Humanity now occupies more than two thousand worlds stretched across a vast range of interstellar space known as the Inner Sphere. For humanity as a whole, Terra, at the heart of it all, will forever be known as “Home.” But for the far greater majority of us, “home” is a very different speck amidst the infinite black. Our homes are many, varied, beautiful, and filled with rich histories—each unique to itself. In the grand scale of interstellar history, it often becomes so easy to forget this, to see planets and solar systems as dots on an abstracted map. But, at the core of the matter, each of those dots is a place where men, women, and children live, work, love, and survive. Join us on a special tour of the Sphere, as we explore the richness of these worlds like never before! —Professor Herbert Redburn, Touring the Stars: One World at a Time, Interstellar Free Press elcome to Touring the Stars, a campaign supplement designed to offer players the opportunity to learn about the worlds of Wthe Inner Sphere, Periphery, and beyond. The background information contained in the Atlas section gives players a world’s geography, history, notable events, and other tools needed to create an unlimited number of BattleTech games for play, while the A Time of War section offers plot seeds and details for the planet’s more notable events. These plot seeds can be used as stand-alone games, woven into an existing game, or as part of a larger on-going campaign. The Rules Annex section explains planetary Atlas information for use in gameplay, as well as optional terrain tables, weather, and flora/fauna rules. Terrain tables can be used as a random chart to determine gameplay maps, or simply as a guide to provide ideas on the types of terrain found on the world. This section also contains a list of other rules that can be used to enhance your game experience. All players should agree whether or not to use any or all of these features before play.

As late as 3130, the world remained unlisted on navigation charts, though it was declared a secured protectorate of both the Marik- Stewart Commonwealth and the Duchy of Tamarind-Abbey, who only permitted limited access to it for civil and scientific expeditions. As of 3150, Jardine’s protected status is unclear, but official maps still omit its location. The following documentation derives from numerous sources, the most prominent of which are the accounts of Dr. Brooklyn Stevens, an independent explorer who reportedly rediscovered the planet in late 3067. Extensive efforts were made to verify the details enclosed here, but errors may remain.

  • Cosmology of the Mandaya
    COSMOLOGY OF THE MANDAYA Emmanuel S. Nabayra This study on Mandaya cosmology seeks to explore the following questions: What do the Mandaya understand about the composition of their cosmos or universe? How do they live this understanding about the composition of their cosmos or universe? How do they resolve conflicts among themselves and with others and with the spirits in their environment? The Mandaya believe that their one world is populated by myriads of beings; and that humans are just one of these. That some non-human beings or spirits are stronger than humans while many others are weaker, jealous, tricky, playful, wicked and harmful. I found the Mandaya did not believe that these spirits were gods, but they believe in the existence of one distant Labaw na Magbabaya—the one Source of all beings and the one who ultimately decides for everything that exists and occurs inside His dunya or realm, the world. For this belief in and respect for the existence of spirits in the same universe, missionaries branded the Mandaya and other indigenous peoples as “animists”, from the Latin word anima, spirits. This study then investigates myths, symbols and rituals developed by the Mandaya as homini religiosi (religious human beings) for the purpose of creating and maintaining harmonious relationship with all the spirits in their one and only kalibutan or world with its Langit (heaven), Lupa (land), and Ugsuban (underworld). This is then also a study on the geography of the Mandaya universe, of the Mandaya perception of the harmonious relationships between human and the other spirits populating the kalibutan (world).

    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.

    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.

  • Re-Animating Philippine Cinema: for Filipinos, by Filipinos
    Re-animating Philippine Cinema: For Filipinos, By Filipinos Maria Paulina P FLORENTINO University of the Philippines Manila Abstract This study explores the Philippine animation industry in terms of its original local content through the eyes of Filipino animators. It is a brief chronicle of Filipino animated films throughout the years, particularly film entries to the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) and Animahenasyon, from 2007 to 2016. These films were proudly made by Filipino animators and captured the essence of being a Filipino. With the talent and creativity of Filipino animators, they are constantly pursued to create content for foreign animation studios. This has led to a boom in animation subcontracting. However, with the flourishing business side of animation comes the breakdown of the local animation industry. With the preference of working as “in-betweeners,” Filipino animators have devoted their talent to assembly line-type of work instead of bringing to life characters that are uniquely their own. To trace the "re-animation" of the Philippine animation industry, this study draws attention to how Filipino culture is manifested in the animated films included in the study. Along with this, an analysis of MMFF and the Animahenasyon as main platforms for animated films and their roles in the distribution and exhibition of animated films are presented. The study is able to affirm the presence of original local content in the selected animated films from MMFF and Animahenasyon. Despite the challenges faced by Filipino animators, the original local content of the animation industry is blooming and defying expectations. Filipino animated films are reflective of the aspirations of its people and the nation's socio-political issues, mythology, and folklore.

PUB TYPE Books (010) Reports Research (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC09 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Adult Literacy; Basic Skills; Community Education; Cultural Differences; Economic Development; Economic Status; Educational Environment; Ethnic Groups; Ethnography; Foreign Countries; *Functional Literacy; *Literacy Education; Minority Groups; Numeracy; Outcomes of Education; Popular Education; Poverty; Rural Areas; *School Community Relationship; *Social Development; *Sociocultural Patterns; Urban Areas IDENTIFIERS *Philippines; Place Based Education; Sense of Community ABSTRACT Thirteen marginal Philippine communities were examined in an ethnographic study of the meaning of functional literacy and whether literacy invariably promotes development. The 13 sites were purposely selected to provide a broad sampling from three standpoints:(1) major-livelihood and form of economic activity (farming, fishing, urban poor, disaster areas); (2) ethnolinguistic grouping (Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao); and (3) lifestyle or rhythm of life in the community (traditional, transitional, Moslem Filipino minority, lowland Christian majority, urban poor, developmental). The sample functional literacy rate in the study's communities ranged from 34.4% to 79.8%. Special attention was paid to the following topics: community life as a context of literacy practice; community knowledge and the passage to a literate tradition; different practices, meanings, and definitions of functional literacy in different contents; constraints in the relationship between literacy and development; and possibilities for literacy in conceptualizing a school of the people.
