THE BEGINNINGS OF FILIPINO NATIONALISM (MID 1700¶S-1900) Purposes of revolt: To retake one¶s lost kingdom or chiefdom. To resist forced labor that separated the men for long periods from their families. to get rid of the oppressive tribute To return to their ancient religion, the worship of Bathala and the anitos. y y y y

1761 --- Spain and France ± entered into a treaty of alliance against England¶snambition for supremacy. During the Seven Year¶s War in Europe between France and England, Spain was naturally drawn into the conflict. Archbishop Manuel Rojo ± acting governor-general when British, with 6,000 men including Sepoys from Bombay, bombarded Intramuros, Malate, Ermita, and Bagumbayan (Luneta) on September 22, 1762. 1762 --- Diego Silang, an Ilocano from Ilocos province rose in revolt. --- King of the Ilocos Gabriela Silang --- wife of Diego Silang, turned over the leadership and carried on the fight courageously but she was later captured and hanged, along with 100 followers. 1762 --- Juan de la Cruz Palaris --- led a widespread revolt in Pangasinan, demanding for the end to the payment of tributes and countless abuses by the Spanish officials.
2. BASCO¶S ECONOMIC PLANS
the economy developed slowly for several reasons: 1. The incompetence of Spanish officials; 2. Graft and greed of the merchants and religious corporations engaged in the galleon trade 3. Restrictive economic policies which closed some parts of the country to other foreign countries 4. The constant quarrels between the civil and ecclesiastical a uthorities assigned in the colony. 1778 --- Jose Basco y Vargas, who was appointed governor-general of the Philippines, surveyed the economic condition of the colony and found it to be far from satisfactory. y
Gov. Basco encouraged cultivation of crops for export like indigo, coffee, cocoa, sugar, hemp, mulberry trees, spices, and cotton. - the development of mines that produced gold, tin and copper. He founded the Economic Society of Friends of the Country in 1781 and established the Royal Company in 1785. 1807 ---, some 10000 rebels in Ilocos revolted against the government monopoly of a locally-produced wine from sugarcane called BASI. Basi revolt --- was among the BLOODIEST uprising ever recorded during this time. 3. LAISSEZ-FAIRE AND THE OPENING OF PORTS Laissez-faire or ³let alone policy´ --- this policy gave full freedom to private individuals and firms to engage in economic activities without much interference from the government. --- allowed for entry of foreign firms into the country. 1842 --- Manila could boast of two American, one French, one Danish, and eight British commercial firms. 1859 --- the number of foreign firms increased to fifteen. 1855 --- The ports of Iloilo, Zamboanga, and Sual (Pangasinan) were opened to foreign trade. 1860 --- Cebu 1873 --- Tacloban and Legazpi Batangas --- coffee Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, Sorsogon, Albay --- hemp Ilocos and Cagayan Valley --- Indigo and tobacco Negros, Iloilo, Pampanga, Laguna, Batangas --- Sugar cane Nicholas Loney --- British vice consul --- introduced first modern machinery that converted sugar cane into refined sugar. 4. THE RISE OF THE ³FILIPINO´ MIDDLE CLASS inquilinos --- tenants Ilustrado --- wealthy and highly-educated Filipino, composed the middle class Insulares --- Spaniards born in the Philippines Peninsulares --- (Espanoles) --- Spanish born in Spain, working or residing in the country.
Two events foreshadowed the developing consciousness of the masses as a different race and class in society. 1. Tagalog publication of Florante at Laura in 1838 by Francisco Baltazar or Balagtas. There was reference for the first time to the country as oppressed and in need of freedom as expressed in the following lines: Sa loob at labas ng bayan kong sawi Kaliluha¶y siyang nangyayaring hari Kagalinga¶t bait ay nalulugami innas sa hukay ng dusa¶t pighati. 2. Revolt by Apolinario de la Cruz or Hermano Pule in Tayabas (quezon) in 1841. Hermano Pule --- King of t he Tagalogs The Spanish authorities were alarmed by its pure Indio membership under the guise of a Confradia, whose aim to revive the ancient Catalonan teachings within the Catholic church. The Education Of Some Filipinos
Colleges and Universities were exclusively for the Spaniards and Mestizos San Juan de Letran San Jose San Felipe Schools for women: College of Santa Potenciana Santa Isabel College Santa Rosa College th mid 19 century --- University of Santo Tomas y y y
y y y
These educated Filipinos later asked for reforms in the Spanish administration of the Philippines. as Spaniards feared, it was the ilustrados who would later ask embarrassing questions about Spanish misdeeds, incompetence, inefficiency,
greed and corruption. And most dangerously, they pushed the idea of the Indios as ³Filipinos´ with equal rights as the Spaniards in the country.
5. THE OPENING OF THE SUEZ CANAL --- 1869
This resulted in the shorter route and travel time between Spain and the Philippines. Many Spanirads with progressive ideas migrated to the Philippines. Among them were exiled creoles from Mexico like Varela and Novales whose subversive ideas and activities advocated freedom and liberties. Mail ---1854 Telegraph --- 1873 Telephone, Manila-Dagupan railway ----1890 6. LIBERALISM IN THE PHILIPPINES Gov.gen. Carlos Maria de la Torre --- 1869 (Manila) --- he put into practice the liberal principles of the revolutionsits in Spain. He showed his democratic ways by living simply and avoiding luxury, by dismissing the halberdiers of his palace and by walking the streets of Manila in civilian clothes.
De la Torre¶s Administration: was the best gov. gen. he abolished the censorship of the press he abolished flogging as a punishment he solved the agrarian unrest in Cavite y y y
The return of autocracy Rafael de Izquierdo --- was appointed gov. gen. in 1871 to replace de la Torre. --- being an autocrat, he boasted that he would rule the Philippines ³with a cross in one hand and a sword in the other.´ 7. THE CAMPAIGN FOR SECULARIZATION regular priest --- those who belonged to the religious orders like Dominicans, Recollects, Augustinians and Franciscans. Regular priests, or simply regulars, have a mission to fulfill, i.e to convert non-Christian people to Christianity. Secular priest --- were not members of any religious order Friar curates --- they administered the parishes. The government even went as far as giving the parishes, run by Filipino seculars, to Spanish regulars. This led to the campaign called secularization The movement would later called ³ Filipinization´ because of its racial overtone. Father Pedro Pablo Palaez (1812-1863), a Spanish mestizo --- the leader of the Filipino campaign to secularize the parishes. Father Jose A. Burgos --- Spanish mestizo Father Jacinto Zamora, Mariano Gomez, Toribiodel Pilar, Mariano Sevilla, Pedro Dandan, Jose Guevarra y

8. THE CAVITY MUTINY Jan. 20, 1872 --- height of the secularization controversy, the Cavity Mutiny. --- was caused by the revocation of the privilege of shipyard workers to be exempted from forced labor and from paying tribute by gov. gen de Izquierdo. The mutineers included: Indios Mestizos Criollos (Spaniards born in Mexico and exiled in Cavite) They were led by military sergeant La Madrid. The government believing it to be a rebellion, ordered the arrested were: y y y
Father Jose Burgos Father Mariano Gomez Father Jacinto Zamora Father Pedro Dandan Father Toribio del Pilar Father Mariano Sevilla Father Agustin Mendoza Father Jose Guevarra Among the civilian arrested were: Pedro Carillo Antonio Regidor Joaquin Pardo de Tavera They were sentenced to be banished to Guam, while Gomez, Burgos and Za mora were sentenced to death. y y y y y y y y

9. THE EXECUTION OF GOMBURZA Gomez, Burgos and Zamora --- were jailed in Fort Santiago before they were tried for rebellion. They were sentenced death by garrotte. Feb. 17, 1872 --- the three priests marched from Fort Santiago to Bagumbayan Field (now Luneta). --- It is said that Zamora lost his mind and silently accepted to be garrotted. 1. Zamora 2. Gomez 3. Burgos The witnesses of the event took off their hats and knelt to pray for the souls of the innocent priests. The seeds of the Filipino nationalism had been planted on fertile ground.
The campaign for reforms (1882-1892) 10. THE REFORM MOVEMENT (PROPAGANDA MOVEMENT 1882) Cortes --- the Phil would be represented in the Spanish lawmaking body Assimilation --- granting of Spanish citizenship to Filipinos. To the phil would allow the Indios to be finally called ³Filipinos´.

Why did reform movement failed: 1. Spanish high officials in Spain were too busy with their own problems to listen to the collective voice of the reformists. 2. The reformists in the Spain and in the Phil. did not have the necessary financial means with which make their campaign effective. 3. The reformists themselves were not united. 4.

1. The Founding of the Katipunan ü July 7, 1892: Azcarraga Street, Tondo (now Claro M. Recto Ave.) ü Andres Bonifacio, Valentin Diaz, Teodoro Plata, Ladislao Diwa, Deodato Arellano and a few others decided to form an association called: KATAASTAASAN, KAGALANGGALANG NA KATIPUNAN NG MGA ANAK NG BAYAN ü The men gathered around a flickering table lamp, performed the ancient blood compact, and signed their membership papers with their own blood. 1. Katipunan Objectives ü Three Fundamental Objectives of Katipunan:
POLITICAL Objective: Consisted of working for the SEPARATION of Philippines from Spain.
MORAL Objective: revolved around the teaching of good manners, hygiene, good morals and attacking obscurantism, religious fanaticism and weakness of character. CIVIC Objective: revolved around the principle of self-help and the defense of the poor and the oppressed.
1. Membership ü ü ü ü
It was agreed to win members to the society by means of the TRIANGLE METHOD. This system was eventually changed on Oct. 1892 because the method was slow and clumsy. It was agreed upon that any member of the society could take in as many as members he could get. Under this new method, the number of members increased.
1. Kinds of Membership ü When the Katipunan had sufficiently expanded to include more than a hundred new members in the ranks, Bonifacio thought it convenient to divide the members into THREE GRADES.
Grade One: Katipon - Wore a BLACK HOOD during meetings of the society. - The hood had a triangle of white ribbon inside of which were the letters Z.Ll.B. ± the Katipunan letters for A ng B (Anak ng Bayan) - Password: ANAK NG BAYAN
Grade Two: Kawal - Wore a GREEN HOOD with a triangle consisting of white lines. At the angles of the triangle were the letters Z.Ll.B. - Suspended from the neck of the Kawal was a green ribbon with a medal at the end, with the ancient Tagalog letter K in the middle of the medal. Beneath the K was a crossed sword and a flag. - Password: GOMBURZA
Grade Three: Bayani - Wore a RED MASK and a sash with green borders, symbolizing courage and hope. - The front of the mask had white borders that formed a triangle with 3K¶s arranged as if occupying the angles of a triangle. - At the latter¶s base were the letters Z.Ll.B. - Password: RIZAL ü The Katipon could graduate to the Kawal class if he had brought in several members into the society. ü The Kawal can become a Bayani upon election to become an officer of the society. ü For the members to recognize each other in the street, the society adopted countersigns. ü A member meeting another member places the palm of his right hand on his chest. As he pass the other member, he close his hand, bringing the index finger and thumb together.
1. Katipunan Codes ü The Katipuneros faced many dangers, so that precautions had to be taken to keep the society secret. ü To maintain the secrets of their communication, Bonifacio made a system of writing that would make it difficult for the Spanish authorities to decode. 1. The Flags of the Katipunan ü With the Katipunan now well organized, Bonifacio turned his attention to the symbol of its authority. ü Upon his request, Benita Rodriguez, with the help of Gregoria de Jesus, made a flag. OFFICIAL FLAG of the KATIPUNAN
A version of the Katipunan Flag ü Owing to the lack of uniformity in the design and the use of the flag, some generals of the revolution adopted their own design. BONIFACIO¶s FLAG Mariano Llanera¶s Flag (Llanera¶s Skull) Gen. Pio del Pilar¶s Flag 1. Andres Bonifacio ü The Father of the Katipunan ü ³Supremo´ of the Katipunan ü Founder and Organizer of the Katipunan ü the eldest among six children- four boys and two girls. ü came from a poor family in Tondo ü his father (Santiago)is a pure Filipino, while her mother (Catalina) is a mestiza with a Filipino-Chinese-Spanish descent ü Supported his siblings when his parents died of tuberculosis ü Jobs:
He had a beautiful penmanship and talent to make attractive posters for clothing companies. He helped his siblings continue to make rattan walking canes and paper fans in the evening. He also wove hats. He accepted odd jobs from different companies. ü Great Dresser: He always wore an open coat and matched it with a necktie and black hat. ü He wasn¶t a barbaric individual who put up an arms struggle because of his violent nature as what some textbooks perceive. ü had a scanty education ü highly intelligent ü He completed only what we call grade four. But he was far from being uneducated. ü He was a voracious reader. He read hundreds of foreign novels, books about the French revolution, politics, law, and religion. ü He was fluent enough in Spanish to translate Jose Rizal¶s Mi Ultimo Adios in Tagalog. ü He also wrote the heart-stirring poem, Pag-Ibig sa Tinubuang Lupa. ü Humble: he knew his limitations and recognized the worth of others ü Ruthless: When the society¶s existence was at stake, he never hesitated to take drastic action against anybody whom he thought would defeat the purposes for which the Katipunan was founded. ü He may have been ignorant from the point of view of the middle class, but he succeeded where they failed. ü Without him, it is extremely doubtful whether the Phil. Revolution could have been a reality. ü During his time, everybody seemed in despair and were not doing anything about it. ü Had Two Wives
MONICA -
Andres¶ first wife Died of Leprosy
GREGORIA DE JESUS -
Andres¶ second wife From Caloocan LAKAMBINI of the Katipunan. Aka Ka Oriang Married Andres after a few months of courtship. She also came from a poor family.

She had to stop studying just to be able to help her parents take care of her younger siblings. She wove and sewed textiles in their house to gain additional income. Like her husband, she was also tough. She became a member of the women¶s chapter of the group. She was entrusted with the crucial role of custodian of documents, a tasked she heroically accomplished. Knowledge of succeeding Filipino generations about Katipunan is credited to her She risked her life even at a time when she was pregnant.
1. Emilio Jacinto ü BRAINS of the KATIPUNAN ü Joined the society at age of 18, becoming the youngest member of the Katipunan. ü He became Bonifacio¶s trusted friend and adviser. ü He gave up his Law studies and joined the Katipunan ü His intelligence was of great use to the Katipunan. ü He wrote the Kartilla: the primer of the Katipunan where rules and regulations are contained. ü He edited Ang Kalayaan: Katipunan's newspaper where eople are informed about the aims and activities of the association. ü As an editor of Kalayaan, he used Marcelo H. del Pilar as his pen name. ü Emilio's greatest poem was A La Patria, inspired by Rizal's Mi Ultimo Adios. ü It was signed "Dimas-Ilaw", his other pen name. ü Emilio Jacinto was wounded critically during one of the battles in Majayjay, Laguna. ü This led to his death on April 16, 1899 at the young age of 24. 1. Women¶s Chapter of the Katipunan ü Membership was limited only to the wives, daughters and sisters of the male members ü This is to ensure that no women of dubious character could penetrate the deep secrets of the society ü Duties:
To take in new members, male or female. See to it that the meetings of the male members were not disturbed by surprise raids of the authorities. Pass and keep important documents of the association

1. Revolution: Second Phase 2. American Designs on the Philippines 1. Expansion of the American Navy
± To expand the navy, the Americans have to gauge war against the Spaniards. 1. Battle of Manila Bay ± The naval battle was one-sided because while it is true that the Spanish ships outnumbered those of the Americans, they were poorly armed. Thus, Spain lost the battle.
1. Aguinaldo While in Hong Kong, he deposited the P400,000 given to him in 2 Hong Kong Banks. Only the interest was withdrawn and used for the expenses of the exiles. After the Battle of Manila Bay, he felt that there was an opportunity to oust the Spaniards from the Philippines. But there was a division in the ranks of the exiles, for ISABELO ARTACHO wanted the P400,000 to be divided among them and sued Aguinaldo in the Hong Kong Supreme Court. To avoid appearing in court, Aguinaldo, accompanied by Gregorio del Pilar and J. Leyba, secretly left for Singapore. 1. Aguinaldo and E. Spencer Pratt -
Pratt persuaded Aguinaldo to take his lot to the Americans: ³Y ou need not have any worry about America. The American Congress and President have just made a solemn declaration disclaiming any desire to possess Cuba and promising to leave the country to the Cubans after having driven away the Spaniards and pacified the county. Cuba is at our door, while the Philippines is 10,000 miles away! 1. Aguinaldo Returns Aguinaldo arrived in Cavite with the war materials he had brought from Hong Kong. The Renewal of the Struggle began after he issued a proclamation urging the people to rally once more to the Filipino flag in the struggle against the Spaniards. His return was demoralizing for the Spaniards. 1. The Siege of Manila ü Intramuros (Walled City) ± The place where thousands of Spaniards have sought refuge. ± Aguinaldo and his men besiege the city in an attempt to starve out the enemy within its walls. ± They surrounded the city and cut off the city¶s food and water supply. This made the people in the city, Spaniards, Filipinos and aliens, suffer from hunger and thirst. ± It was only a matter of weeks before the Spanish authorities would surrender to Aguinaldo. ± Aguinaldo offered Gov. Gen. Augustin honorable surrender but he refused for in Spanish code of honor, the word surrender was non-existent. ± With this refusal, Aguinaldo and his men continued the siege. 1. The Spanish-American Secret Agreement ü George Dewey, thought that the surrender of Manila could be affected without the use of arms. ü He started negotiations with Augustin, through the Belgian consul, Andre, regarding the surrender of Manila. ü But when the Peninsular Government heard of Augustin¶s plan for surrender, he was relieved as governor and was replaced by General FERMIN JAUDENES. ü Jaudenes, like Augustin, believed that the Spanish position was hopeless and to save face, he insisted that to satisfy the Spanish code of honor, a MOCK BATTLE should happen after which, the Spanish forces would surrender. ü It was stipulated that Filipino rebels should be excluded and should not be allowed to enter the city
1. The Mock Battle of Manila ü There was a short display of fireworks on the side of the enemies. ü The Spaniards hoisted the white flag of surrender. ü This signaled the ³fall´ of Manila and the end of the Spanish Colonial Period. 1. Malolos Republic ü ü ü ü ü

In return, Spain would receive $20,000,000 from the US as payment for the improvement made in the colony. US also agreed to give Spaniards the right to ship commodities to the Philippines for a period of 10 years. This signaled the start of American Colonization in the Philippines.
