Book excerpt: The various regions of the Philippines are rich sources of Philippine folklore, which includes myths, legends, epics, tales, folk sayings, and other folklore material. Originally told and retold by our forefathers of long ago, these various forms of folklore have been handed down to the present through the lips of story tellers or informants and have become an essential part of our cultural heritage. There are fifty myths and legends included in this volume, and they are grouped into four sections: Part I, myths and legends of places; Part II, myths and legends of plants; Part III, myths and legends of people; and Part IV, myths and legends of animals. Each tale is followed by a set of exercises which provide not only for the acquisition, on the part of students, of such important skills as learning new words, getting the main ideas, comprehending what is read, remembering important details, and making an outline, etc., but also for the clarification and development of values.

Download or read book The Aswang Complex in Philippine Folklore written by Maximo D. Ramos and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1971-01-15 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Aswang Complex in Philippine Folklore: With Illustrative Accounts in Vernacular Texts and Translations.This book is a bold attempt to present to the reader and to students of Filipino society and culture one of the dominant Filipino beliefs, the aswang. For some strange reason the belief has never been explored for its usefulness in the field of literature or social studies. Even educators shy away from it, branding the belief as superstitious and therefore hot to be perpetuated. While this view is entertained, however, there is continued use in the schools-including the nursery schools-of Western tales like "Hansel and Gretel," 'Rapunzel," "Snow White," and so forth, dealing with witches, dwarfs, and other people of lower mythology. It is sad to note that while we accept these stories as entertaining to our children, we reject our own folktales about equivalent characters as superstitious and undesirable.It is about time that we changed our perspective, that we accepted our own literary heritage and used it if we are to make education meaningful to our children. Maximo D. Ramos has provided us with one way to achieve this. Of course the present volume is only one of his many works on Philippine folklore.While he presents the materials in this book as folklore, these can also be regarded as ethnographic data in that they deal with one of the dominant aspects of Filipino folk culture. The aswang belief may be viewed as socially functional in many communities. Our own field notes on the subject matter indicate that aswang tales are used by many people as a medium of social control. For example, when a child frets at night or becomes unruly during the day, adult members of the family or sibling caretakers generally use the aswang belief as a means of quieting the child or of disciplining him. When one wishes to protect his fields from unnecessary trespass by others, all he has to do is make it known that an aswang haunts the place and no one will dare enter the premises, especially at night. Deviant behavior is also handled through avoidance, and the aswang label is handy for this purpose. Once the label is set, deviants are either coerced into conformity to what is acceptable behavior or are effectively deprived of their legitimate status in the community.Thus seen, it is understandable that the aswang belief has persisted in our society over such a long period of time.
