| philippine history trivia questions with answers: Neo-slave Narratives Ashraf H. A. Rushdy, 1999-11-04 NeoSlave Narratives is a study in the political, social, and cultural content of a given literary form--the novel of slavery cast as a first-person slave narrative. After discerning the social and historical factors surrounding the first appearance of that literary form in the 1960s, NeoSlave Narratives explores the complex relationship between nostalgia and critique, while asking how African American intellectuals at different points between 1976 and 1990 remember and use the site of slavery to represent the crucial cultural debates that arose during the sixties. |

| philippine history trivia questions with answers: It's Complicated Danah Boyd, 2014-02-25 A youth and technology expert offers original research on teens’ use of social media, the myths frightening adults, and how young people form communities. What is new about how teenagers communicate through services like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram? Do social media affect the quality of teens’ lives? In this book, youth culture and technology expert Danah Boyd uncovers some of the major myths regarding teens’ use of social media. She explores tropes about identity, privacy, safety, danger, and bullying. Ultimately, Boyd argues that society fails young people when paternalism and protectionism hinder teenagers’ ability to become informed, thoughtful, and engaged citizens through their online interactions. Yet despite an environment of rampant fear-mongering, Boyd finds that teens often find ways to engage and to develop a sense of identity. Boyd’s conclusions are essential reading not only for parents, teachers, and others who work with teens, but also for anyone interested in the impact of emerging technologies on society, culture, and commerce. Offering insights gleaned from more than a decade of original fieldwork interviewing teenagers across the United States, Boyd concludes reassuringly that the kids are all right. At the same time, she acknowledges that coming to terms with life in a networked era is not easy or obvious. In a technologically mediated world, life is bound to be complicated. “Boyd’s new book is layered and smart . . . It’s Complicated will update your mind.” —Alissa Quart, New York Times Book Review “A fascinating, well-researched and (mostly) reassuring look at how today's tech-savvy teenagers are using social media.” —People “The briefest possible summary? The kids are all right, but society isn’t.” —Andrew Leonard, Salon |

| philippine history trivia questions with answers: The Social Cancer Jose Rizal, 2016-09-01 We travel rapidly in these historical sketches. The reader flies in his express train in a few minutes through a couple of centuries. The centuries pass more slowly to those to whom the years are doled out day by day. Institutions grow and beneficently develop themselves, making their way into the hearts of generations which are shorter-lived than they, attracting love and respect, and winning loyal obedience; and then as gradually forfeiting by their shortcomings the allegiance which had been honorably gained in worthier periods. We see wealth and greatness; we see corruption and vice; and one seems to follow so close upon the other, that we fancy they must have always co-existed. We look more steadily, and we perceive long periods of time, in which there is first a growth and then a decay, like what we perceive in a tree of the forest. FROUDE, Annals of an English Abbey. |
| philippine history trivia questions with answers: Eden in the East Stephen Oppenheimer, 1998 This book completetly changes the established and conventional view of prehistory by relocating the Lost Eden—the world's first civilisation—to Southeast Asia. At the end of the Ice Age, Southeast Asia formed a continent twice the size of India, which included Indochina, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Borneo. In Eden in the East, Stephen Oppenheimer puts forward the astonishing argument that here in southeast Asia—rather than in Mesopotamia where it is usually placed—was the lost civilization that fertilized the Great cultures of the Middle East 6,000 years ago. He produces evidence from ethnography, archaeology, oceanography, creation stories, myths, linguistics, and DNA analysis to argue that this founding civilization was destroyed by a catastrophic flood, caused by a rapid rise in the sea level at the end of the last ice age. |

| philippine history trivia questions with answers: The Indolence of the Filipino José Rizal, 2022-09-16 In The Indolence of the Filipino, José Rizal offers a profound exploration of the complex interplay between colonialism and national identity, articulating a compelling argument regarding the perceived laziness of Filipinos under Spanish rule. Through a careful blend of historical analysis and personal reflection, Rizal employs a meticulous literary style that weaves together narrative, expository writing, and compelling rhetoric. The book is set against the backdrop of 19th-century colonial Philippines, where prevalent stereotypes about Filipino workers are scrutinized through the lens of social injustice, economic exploitation, and cultural oppression, revealing the profound effects of colonization on Filipino character and society. José Rizal, a multifaceted scholar, revolutionary, and national hero, wrote The Indolence of the Filipino as a response to the disparagement of his countrymen. Rizal's own experiences as an expatriate educated in Europe lent him a distinctive perspective, allowing him to challenge prevailing myths about Filipino incapacity. His conscience and sense of purpose were deeply rooted in the desire for reform and advocacy for the Filipino populace, providing the impetus behind his critical examination of national identity and character. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the cultural and historical dimensions of the Philippines during the colonial era. Rizal's incisive insights not only debunk prevalent misconceptions but also invite readers to rethink the narratives surrounding colonial subjects. Engaging and thought-provoking, it serves as a vital resource for students and enthusiasts of Filipino history and literature, inviting deeper reflection on the implications of colonialism on identity formation. |

| philippine history trivia questions with answers: The Marcos Legacy Cecilio Arillo, 2018-01-02 THE book is not only about the legacy of President Ferdinand E. Marcos but also the ignominious story of how two governments - and others - driven by a mixture of greed and vindictiveness, ganged up on him and his family, divested them not just of lawful power, but of honor as well as of possessions. This is the story of how legal systems were manipulated for sinister ends, how God-given rights were wantonly violated by governments professing respect for human rights. This book also consists mostly of official documents that are incontrovertible proof of the unjust punishments inflicted upon the Marcoses without them first being found guilty by the courts of law. These documents chronicled lies, frauds, flawed logic, anomalous processes and judicial partisanship that made adverse decisions against them possible in various courts. The accusatory and punitive documents comprised a paper trail of shameful acts that their authors would regret come Judgment Day. What human law can justify, for instance, the desecration of the dead? What commitment to human rights can legitimize their sustained violation? What advocate of justice can glory in denying it from the accused? Justices, lawyers, students and laymen would no doubt be amused or bewildered by the whirlwind allegations lodged against the Marcoses, and the maze of processes they went through. Legal systems are vulnerable to manhandling that frustrates justice. Most of the holdings against the Marcoses have been based on the discretion of officials of uncertain impartiality. Both legal experts and laymen have to wonder, for example, why one American court cautioned that its decision was not to be published, and why the Supreme Court of the Philippines insisted in another decision that its ruling should not be construed as a precedent. President Marcos's vision and ideas about leadership, government and constitutionalism still remain fresh and timeless today. He believed in fair and transparent political competition, operated in the national interest, created more friends and widened his network of friendship throughout the world, including in hostile places where others feared to tread. His enemies and critics saw almost everything he does as a threat to their political ambitions and economic interests. Strangely, they literally hanged the wrong man (Hubris 2000) at a time when he was fighting a deadly kidney disease that had emaciated his athletic body not in his homeland but in the United States, a country known for its liberal democracy and many of whose leaders had treated him with dignity and as a reliable ally only to be crucified and abandoned for political, security and economic expediency. Even his wife, Imelda Romualdez Marcos, their children and grandchildren were not spared from all manners of indignity. These tribulations befell the Marcoses, Imelda Romualdez-Marcos most of all. But despite the indignities, she has not crumbled and continued to fight their detractors. Before this book went to press, she has already suffered more than 31 years of persecution that have merely steeled her resolve to regain the family's honor, and perhaps mothered or fathered what the hyenas of history have left of the Marcos fortune. Already 88 when this book went to press, she continued her quest for justice, realizing that there is more at stake than her family's name and material wealth: the unity of the Filipino people, their capacity for reconciliation and their willingness to outgrow the betrayal and conflicts of the past. The Marcoses had been confronted originally with 358 civil and criminal cases (mostly against Imelda), of which some 100 were still current, the rest having been dismissed. Such an extended ordeal certainly adds deeper meaning to what the Irish writer William Butler Yeats penned many decades ago: The innocent and the beautiful have no enemy but time. |
