Download or read book Journal Memorials and Letters of Cornelis Matelieff de Jonge written by Peter Borschberg and published by NUS Press. This book was released on 2015-07-31 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Admiral Cornelis Matelieff de Jonge was a Director in the Rotterdam chamber of the Dutch East Indies Company (VOC) for three decades in the early 17th century. In May 1605 he set sail from the Dutch Republic with a fleet of 11 ships, and in the following year launched an unsuccessful attack on Portuguese Melaka. After visiting various locations in the region and signing landmark treaties with the rulers of Johor (1606) and Ternate (1607), he returned to the Netherlands in 1608. There he wrote a series of epistolary reports and memoranda that were carefully studied by leading policy makers in the Republic, among them the renowned jurist Hugo Grotius, and the politician and diplomat Johan van Oldenbarnevelt. Early VOC policy for south-eastern Asia drew heavily on Matelieff's submissions, and the materials reproduced in this volume provide candid insights into key elements of VOC strategy, trade, security and regional diplomacy, as well as Dutch relations with Spain and Portugal. Here translated into English for the first time, this collection of Matelieff's writings is an invaluable resource for students of business history, early colonial history, and the history of international law.
Download or read book Diccionario mitol gico de Filipinas written by Ferdinand Blumentritt and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many authors, ancient and modern, native and foreign, have been preoccupied with 'primitive' religion, or even better said, the paganism of the Natives of the Philippines; however, their writings about the religion of the natives, non-Christianized or from the mountains, who until now keep their ancient practices, are always reduced to form a chapter indistinct from the other historical or ethnographic notes of their published works. There exists no work, [major] or minor, dedicated specifically and especially to the study of the religion of all the indigenous races of the Philippine Archipelago. The purpose of this dictionary is to put together the religious groups of the Philippines, and removing those of Christian or Mohammedan origins. This work will provide an opportunity to make comparative studies and give an idea of the wealth of names that are in the mythologies of this country.

Download or read book Outline of Philippine Mythology written by F. Jocano and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of Philippine myths and tales of wonder grouped under a few large headings and strung together with a minimum of unobtrusive commentary by an outstanding Filipino scholar, Dr. F. Landa Jocano. The stories are drawn both from previously published materials and from Dr. Jocano's own researches, especially in the interior fastnesses of his native Panay. While there is no attempt at comprehensiveness, one is struck by the richness and variety of these Philippine stories of gods, spirits and heroes. The variety is such as at times to induce confusion, especially where the same proper name is given to different divinities or variants of the same narrative are used. These gleanings from the traditions of our animistic forefathers reveal some strands which they may have had in common with some of the major world religions. For example, Dr. Jocano tells us that the early Tagalogs believed in the transmigration of the soul. One would surmise a common culture trait with Indian civilization. Likewise, some details remind one of Biblical lore, such as the flood story, and the use of clay in the making of man as found both in Igorot and Bagobo traditions. The Bisayan divinity Magyan and the Manobo spirit Manduyapit, both of whom ferried the souls of the dead to the afterworld, bear a strong resemblance to Charon of Greek mythology. Some stories may suggest conditions prevailing at the time. For example, there is an extremely interesting reference to lending money at high interest in the Sambal legend of the shark, possibly an indication that the story arose in the early phases of the introduction of money into a subsistence economy. Clearer still are indications of the prevailing ethos among certain people. For example, the Panay epic of Hinilawod narrates the matrimonial exploits of some of its heroes. Labaw Donggon, on his way home with a new bride, hears about another beautiful woman and promptly leaves his wife with his mother and proceeds to court and win a second wife. However, his try for a third bride, a married woman, is not as successful. His brother Humadapnon wins a bride with a feat of strength and magic and then, hearing during the wedding feast about the beauty of another goddess, goes forth to woo and win her. Later, it appears that he also takes a third wife. Perhaps these stories are meant to show that in mythological times men were men, and they may also help to explain the marital behavior of their modern day descendants! Other stories lead one to question whether they antedate the coming of the Spaniards, or whether post-Magellanic traditions have been added to the pre-Hispanic accounts. For example, the Bisayan story of Hari-sa-bukid refers to the planting of tobacco on the slopes of Mt. Kanlaon. Since tobacco is an American plant and was unknown in this country before the coming of western explorers, one wonders what part of the story is pre-Hispanic, if any. Likewise, the Ilocano legend of "Lam-ang", while apparently pre-Hispanic in its framework, makes reference to various introduced features such as tobacco, Christian names like Juan, Marcos, Pasyo and Ines, and a church wedding with a nuptial mass followed by feasting where the Fandango is danced. Some of these tales have been analyzed by scholars, both Filipinos and foreigners. Others remain to be collected and collated, as Dr. Jocano's own work demonstrates. Some day it is hoped that we can have an encyclopedic work on Philippine mythology, similar to those available for Greek, Roman, Germanic and Scandinavian folklore. In the meantime, this book may serve as an introduction for laymen to this highly interesting phase of our people's culture.
