How can memories be preserved and archived in the twenty-first century, and assume a public role?

Subthemes cover, but are not limited to, the following:
Art and public celebration

The Bienvenido N. Santos Creative Writing Center (BNSCWC) in partnership with Penguin Random House SEA is pleased to invite lovers of literature to Assembling Alice: The Making of a Biofiction on April 22, 2022, Friday, 2:00 鈥� 3:00 p.m. (PST Philippine Standard Time) via Zoom.

Held in celebration of the Philippine Literature Month and the World Book Day, the event shall feature a craft lecture on biofiction by Katigbak-Lacuesta and a conversation between her and literature professor Shirley O. Lua about the book.

Assembling Alice is a portrait of a woman as much as it is a portrait of the times she lived in. Alice Feria came of age during the commonwealth period, survived both the occupation and the war, and did not write of her experiences as much as she spoke of them to those in her inner circle. Her experiences were sublimated into editorials she wrote for a small magazine called The Filipino Home Companion where she wrote of nation-building and what it meant or should mean to be a Filipino after the second world war. Assembling Alice is about the stories she told, and have been told about her.

Mookie Katigbak-Lacuesta is the author of four poetry collections: The Proxy Eros (2008), Burning Houses (2013), Hush Harbor (2017), and Eros Redux (2019). She obtained an MFA from the New School University in 2004, and has since taught in major universities in Manila. Katigbak-Lacuesta has also co-edited various literary Filipino poetry anthologies for the Cordite Poetry Review and Vagabond Press. Widely-awarded for her work in the Philippines, Katigbak-Lacuesta has also been the Filipino delegate to international literary festivals in Rotterdam, Medell铆n, San Francisco, Macau, and Kuala Lumpur. In 2015, she completed a writing residency for the International Writing Program at the University of Iowa.

Tungkol sa mga Aklat

Sad-sadan, Happy-hapihan: Mga Kuwento ng Pag-ibig听(UP Press)

Mula sa blurb na sinulat ni Dr. Romulo P. Baquiran, Jr.:

鈥淣agpapahayag ang koleksiyong Sad-sadan, Happy-hapihan ng hindi nag-aalangang pagkukuwento ng pananaw-sa-daigdig ng bakla. Hindi na ito ang may bahid ng pagkukubli (isipin na naisulat ito halos isang dekada na ang nakararaan) kung kaya maituturing na siyang pangunahing ambag sa fiction sa Filipino. Sa madaling sabi, ang ipinapahayag na politika nito sa kalahatan ay mapagpalaya. Hindi na pinagmumulan ng ligalig ang kaisipang bakla, na baka maging hindi katanggap-tanggap sa mambabasa ang kuwentong nabuo ng awtor. Matapang siya kung ganoon sa pagpalaot sa larang na ito. Mahusay ang pagkakasulat ng mga kuwento. Sa maikli at katamtamang haba ng pagsasalaysay ay naisasagawa ang layuning maipahayag ang mga karanasang madalas na hindi nabibigyan ng puwang sa popular na lathalain at sa mga textbook. Isa itong ambag sa lumalawak na pangangailangan na magkaroon ng mga babasahing LGBTQ na sumasalamin sa pagsisikap ng sector na makalaya sa heteronormatibong literatura.鈥�

Kung Ang Siyudad Ay Pag-ibig听(UP Press)

Hindi lugar ang siyudad sa aklat na ito kundi isang kondisyon ng posibilidad, isang malawak na panginoring inaasam puntahan, panahanan, takbuhan at takbuhan papalayo ng mga katawan. At ang Pag-ibig ng mga katawan sa koleksiyong ito 鈥� mga mamamayan, turista, migrante鈥檛 destiyero 鈥� ay hindi lamang mga pangarap, libog at lunggating nakalakip sa bawat baka-sakali ng pandarayuhan kundi mga pang-araw-araw na pagluluksa鈥檛 pagsalag sa dahas ng hangganan ng teritoryo鈥檛 teritoryalidad ng kapangyarihan. May 鈥減angako ng ginhawa鈥� sa kondisyonalidad ng Kung ang Siyudad ay Pag-ibig: ipinupusta ng wika ng tula na hindi lamang tayo makahanap ng lugar at 鈥渕akapagpanibagong-lungsod鈥� kundi makalikha rin ng bagong daigdig na may 鈥渕as ginintuang parang, mas makikinang na dagat, at mas mahihiwagang disyerto鈥� para sa ating dinarahuyo鈥檛 tinutupok sa mumunti nating sulok sa malupit na mundo.

Tungkol sa Panayam at Lunsad-Aklat

Isa sa maituturing na haligi ng panitikang Pilipino ang makata, kuwentista, at nobelistang si Dr. Efren R. Abueg. Mula sa pagiging regular na contributor ng maiikling kuwento at nobela sa magasing 鈥淟iwayway鈥� hanggang sa pagiging bahagi ng premyadong antolohiya ng maiikling kuwento na 鈥淢ga Agos ng Disyerto,鈥� hindi maikakailang malaki ang naging ambag ni Dr. Abueg sa kalinangan ng panitikan sa bansa. Sa panayam na ito, muling babalikan ang kaniyang makulay na karanasan bilang manunulat at guro. Bukod pa, kasabay ding ilulunsad ang librong 鈥淧lakard,鈥� kalipunan ng kaniyang mga maiikling kuwento.

Ang pagtitipong ito ay bahagi ng pagdiriwang ng听Buwan ng Wika听ng BNSCWC, Departamento ng Literature, at Departamento ng Filipino ng Pamantasang De听 La Salle

Tungkol sa Aklat

Dalawa lamang antolohiya ng mga kuwento sa anomang wikang sinasalita sa Pilipinas ang nagharap sa sambayanang Pilipino ng tungkol sa mga pangyayari,听听kaisipan at damdaming humantong sa isang mahalagang bahagi ng kasaysayan ng bansa 鈥� ang Rebolusyong EDSA. Una ang 鈥淪igwa,鈥� katipunan ng maiikling kuwento na pinamatnugutan ni Ricky Lee ng inilathala bago ideklara ang martial law; ikalawa itong 鈥淧lakard鈥� na hango ng awtor ang maraming akda sa mga pahina ng 鈥淟iwayway鈥� at iba pang popular na publikasyon.

Bahagi ang may-akda ng mga nangyari sa panahon ng aktibismo at isinangkap niya ang ilang karanasan niya sa mga kuwentong nilalaman ng antolohiyang ito. May kani-kaniyang pananaw ang maraming manunulat at alagad ng sining sa mga nangyari sa lipunan noong mga panahong iyon. Ang paghuhunos ng mga karanasang iyon ang naglantad at maglalantad pa ng kanilang mga ideolohiya na magtatakda ng kapalaran ng ating bansa sa darating na mga taon.

Tungkol sa Manunulat

Si听Efren R. Abueg听ay ginawaran ng Alab ng Haraya Lifetime Achievement for Literature ng National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA, 2002), nagkamit ng ilang Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature (maikling kuwento) at Gantimpalang Liwayway sa nobela, at isa sa limang manunulat ng antolohiya ng premyadong maiikling kuwentong nakaapat nang edisyon, ang 鈥淢ga Agos sa Disyerto鈥� (1964, 1974, 1995, 2010) matagal na nagturo sa dalawang kampus ng De La Salle University (Maynila at Dasmari帽as, Cavite). Aktibong nobelista ng lingguhang magasing 鈥淟iwayway,鈥� nagtuturo pa rin siya ngayon sa paaralang gradwado ng University of Perpetual Help System DALTA (UPHSD).

LECTURE

The Biographer鈥檚 Dilemma:
The Creative Challenges of Writing Biography

by

Joe Jackson

16 March 2019
9:00-11:00 a.m. (Saturday)
Philippe Jones Lhuillier Conference Room,
14F Henry Sy Sr. Hall
De La Salle University, Taft Avenue, Manila

澳门六合彩 the Lecture

How does one write an engaging biography of a historical figure when it鈥檚 hard enough to write a short personal bio for a job application? How does one distill the mysteries of character through such filters as historical comprehension and passing time? More simply, how does one inhabit another鈥檚 mind? Admittedly, it鈥檚 hard. The creative challenges faced by the biographer are like those of the writer of fiction, memoir, and the personal essay; are similar to the professional 鈥渃raft鈥� of the journalist or clinical psychologist. But with variations. 鈥淐haracter鈥� is the heartbeat of any empathetic endeavor, but how does one make one鈥檚 subject live? The author reflects upon his own work while drawing on his experiences as a death-row reporter and suicide counselor in the USA.

澳门六合彩 the Author

Joe Jackson听is the author of one novel and seven works of nonfiction, including听Black Elk: The Life of an American Visionary,听winner of the PEN/Jacqueline Bograd Weld Award for Biography and the Society of American Historians鈥� Francis Parkman Prize. Jackson holds an MFA from the University of Arkansas, was recently the Mina Hohenberg Darden Endowed Chair of Creative Writing at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA., and was an investigative reporter for the Norfolk听Virginian-Pilot,听where he covered criminal justice and the state鈥檚 Death Row. His journalism resulted in the acquittal of a man wrongly convicted of murder, the federal investigation of a jail in which sixteen prisoners died of medical neglect, and the recantations of two men whose testimony sent men to Death Row. Over the years he has been chased by an elephant and two rhinos in Zimbabwe, greeted by killer wasps and a big anaconda in the Amazon, and fired upon by Soviet troops in Lithuania. Such moments have taught him that panic is rarely the best option, a good mantra for writers facing deadlines. He is in Manila researching an extended narrative on the Spanish-American and Philippine-American wars, told from the viewpoint of the Cuban, Filipino, and American participants.

Tatangkain ng lekturang ito na balikan ang huling sampung taon ng produksiyon ng panitikang pambata sa Pilipinas.听 Ano-ano ang naikuwento na ng mga manunulat sa mga batang Filipino? May mga nadagdag bang mga bagong kuwento na tumalakay sa kontemporanyong panahon o sa higit na mabibigat ng isyung panlipunan?听 Ano-anong uri at anyo ng aklat-pambata na nalilikha para sa mga batang Filipino? Sa anong anyo/uri ng mga aklat-pambata ang higit kailangang palakasin ang produksiyon? Sapat na ba ang ating mga nagawa sa panitikang pambata para makalikha tayo ng isang nasyong nagbabasa?

MGA ABSTRAK NG LEKTURA

Datapoua Hindi Tula: Pag-Akda sa Hanggahan ng Liriko
Allan Popa

Bagamat patuloy ang pagtula sa kasalukuyan sa anyong liriko upang magpaalingawngaw ng protesta, magsuri, magmulat, at magpahiwatig ng posibilidad ng transpormasyong panlipunan, patuloy ding naghahanap ng bagong pamamaraan at dulog sa pag-akda ang maraming manunulat upang makompronta ang ginagawang pagwasak ng mga puwersang mapaniil sa lipunan sa mga dating batayan ng ating mga paniniwala at saligan din ng bisa ng tula.

Karaniwang Daniw: Babae, Tula, at ang Araw-Araw
Faye Cura

鈥淗indi espesyal ang babaeng makata,鈥� sulat ni Luna Sicat Cleto. 鈥淎ng pagiging ordinaryo niya ang kanyang lakas.鈥� Ipakikita ng panayam ang pagtalakay ng mga babaeng makata sa araw-araw na buhay, at ang mga posibilidad nito sa pagsulat ng kasaysayang makababae at makabayan. Kabilang sa itatampok ang mga tula ng feministang si Aida F. Santos, ng kababaihang pesante mula sa Cavite, at ilan pang halimbawa ng mga tulang nakatagpo ng Gantala Press sa mga pagsusumikap nito sa larangan ng independent women鈥檚 publishing.

Tubig sa Rikan-rikan: Dapat Bang may Bikolnon sa Bawat Rawitdawit?
Niles Jordan Breis

Ilalatag ang ilang datos hinggil sa panulaang Bikol simula 1995 hanggang sa kasalukuyan kabilang na rito ang iba pang kaugnay na mga inklinasyon ng mga paksa at poetikong artikulasyon. Tatalakayin din ang tila pagkagumon sa anumang Bikolnon na dapat umanong nasa bawat rawitdawit at sisipatin din ang ilang panimulang diskurso tungkol dito.

Mula Mingaw Tungong Kalipay:
Panimulang Sipat sa Kontemporanyong Panulaang Waray
Jerry B. Gr谩cio

Mula nang ideklarang 鈥減atay na鈥� ang panulaang Waray noong Dekada 90, nagbanyuhay ang tula sa Samar-Leyte at umusbong ang mga bagong manunulat sa rehiyon dahil sa mga pampanitikang palihan sa mga unibersidad na nagresulta sa 鈥渕odernisasyon鈥� ng panulaan. Ngunit nagbunga rin ito ng extreme na tendensiyang parokyal na kailangang igpawan upang tiyakin ang patuloy na pagyabong ng tula at iba pang pampanitikang anyo na nakasulat sa wikang ito.

From the听World听Poetry听Movement:

鈥淚n September 2018, in Zigong, China, the Coordinating Committee of the World听Poetry听Movement met, and considering that dividing walls are emerging to segregate people: concrete walls, barbed wire walls, or more invisible walls built by money and inequality, its members took the decision to call for a planetary听poetic听action to be carried out in February 2019.

In the appeal that followed, we stated that 鈥渨e, the听poets, participating in the World听Poetry听Movement, we defend a free world from all discrimination between the people because of their colour of their skin, national identity, social status, gender or beliefs.鈥澨� ()

Held during the Philippine National Arts Month, the听poetry听reading is part of the activities of the 12^th听澳门六合彩 Arts Congress (13 to 23 February 2019) and the yearlong centennial celebration of the College of Liberal Arts.

澳门六合彩 the Event & Lecture Abstracts
Trans studies is one of the most exciting fields of scholarship in the LGBTQIA studies and in theory and criticism in general.听 But what is the state of trans studies in the Philippines?听 What theorizing has been done so far?听 How do we explain the inviolable kinship between the bakla and the transgender? How do we conceptualize trans history vis-脿-vis the history of听kabaklaan?

Mikee Inton:听听听In this very short talk, I鈥檇 like to problematize the points of convergence and divergence between 鈥渢rans鈥� and 鈥渂akla.鈥� I examine how trans movements in the Philippines first started, and how the human rights framework may have incidentally become a form of neocolonization bent on erasing local practices and knowledge of non-normative genders. I argue that while both global trans discourse and听kabaklaan听are rooted in an interiorized disconnect between the body, mind, and spirit,听kabaklaan听offers an alternative discourse to this interiority that does not pathologize or medicalize this disconnect. I further argue that because many other performative aspects ofkabaklaan听resonate with global trans discourses, local social movements have adopted these global discourses in framing their struggle under Human Rights frameworks.

Jaya Jacobo:听听How has the 鈥渂akla鈥� been constituted in discourse? In this talk, I seek to sketch out the bakla in language and interpret her as a figure gendered by dissemination, as one traversing gender itself, as transgender, if one wills, and at the same time, as a figure who cannot seem to navigate the terrain of identity. First, I do a close reading of the听Vocabulario de la lengua tagala听(1613, 1794, 1860) by looking at the bakla as imminent being, a power that dissimulates the sense through transformation. Then I locate in the听Mahal na Passion听(1814) how this potency becomes an instance of debilitation, which shall become the premise of subsequent representations of the bakla鈥檚 gender. From here, I read the 鈥渂inabae鈥� as a problematic queer figure in听Pusong Walang Pag-ibig听(1910). I end by demonstrating how these contradictions on the bakla are elaborated and confounded even further in contemporary poetry, through a selection of poems from the 1st GlobalGRACE Gender and Cultures of Equality-University of the Philippines LGBTQ Writers鈥� Workshop (2018).

This symposium is one of the projects in The Asia-Pacific Rainbow Initiative of the Literature Department of De La Salle University.
