Compilation Of Philippine literature during Pre-Spanish and Spanish Colonization
During the pre-Spanish period, the Philippines had its own indigenous literature as seen in folktales, legends, folk songs, epics, and other oral traditions that showed Filipino customs and culture. Our ancestors also had their own writing system before the Spanish introduced the Roman alphabet. When the Spanish colonized the Philippines in the 16th century, they sought to convert the natives to Christianity and imposed Spanish language and culture. Spanish missionaries collected and translated ancient Filipino works. Religious themes then dominated literature, and Spanish influences included use of the Roman alphabet, Christian doctrines, and Spanish words. Some of the earliest printed books in the Philippines were Christian texts and translations of biblical stories.
Philippine Literature During Spanish Colonization
1. Spanish colonization of the Philippines began in 1565 under Miguel Lopez de Legazpi.
2. During this period, Spanish missionaries introduced Christianity and the Roman alphabet, replacing the indigenous writing system. They also established the Spanish language as the literary language.
3. Some of the earliest and most significant works published in the Philippines included religious texts in local languages translating Catholic doctrines, as well as dictionaries, grammars and folk songs that helped preserve local cultures in writing.

PART I
Comment on the significance of the following to the themes/major concerns/author world view in OF MICE AND MEN.
1. The title of MICE AND MEN- The title of the Steinbeck’s novel is inspired from a poem called “To a Mouse” by Robert Burns. In the mouse it is shown that a mouse built its nest in a wheat field which is later destroyed by farmers. There is a great relation between the poem and the Steinbeck’s novel. The characters in the Steinbeck’s novel are powerless and they can’t do much about their life. They are at the mercy of the fate. The characters Lennie and George are farm workers who dreams of having their own home and land but their dream is destroyed just like the mice in the poem that cannot do much about their nest being destroyed. Linney has a mouse is his bucket why ? the most is warm and soft , presents basic human needs . He kills them , cuz he can’t control his strength god gave him . the fad of mice and the fade of men are equal . got squash by a force stronger than itself
2. Slim drowning the puppies- The puppies here are innocent and yet they are drowned. The phrase is taken from Slim drowned four pups from a litter of nine. Since it was not possible for the mother to feed all the nine puppies, she these four puppies so that the rest five would survive. The situation was very harsh and the decision was not easy to make but still in order to save the life of five puppies, four puppies were drowned. Act of love in a horoic act just like the friendship act when Gorge killed linney . because he know he wouldn’t survive after killing Curley’s wife . He either will be sent to jail or killed and toutured by Curly. And gorge knows that he can’t live independtly . that’s why Slim understood Gorge when he kills Linney . He represents the figure of understanding
3. The name of Curley’s wife- In the novel Curley’s wife does not have a name. This might imply that she does have a identity of her own, she is not given due respect. She has a dream of her own but still she is considered nobody. She is known by her husband’s name. She dreams of becoming a movie star. She years for attention and reaches out to Lennie and be flirtatious with him. But she met a tragic end. She died without a name. Her neck was accidently broken by Lennie and she met an accidental death.
4. The water snake and the heron- There is a relationship of predator and a prey in between the heron and the snake. Snake being eaten by Heron reflects what happened to Curley’s wife. She was killed by Lennie. A snake appeared in the end and it was killed by heron’s at the water edge. Lennie comes to the pool in search of peace. It’s the paradise of George and Lennie. The place is not at peace now when Lennie has come here. George has stood by Lennie but he could not allow him to do bad things now.

Contemporary society often dissociates sex from love, prioritizing sex over emotional connection. True sexuality is the foundation of personhood and is best expressed within a committed relationship like marriage, where sex is an effect of love rather than its cause.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Philippine Literature: Region 1 – Ilocos Region
- 1. Region 1 – Ilocos Region Lam-ang
- 2. PROVINCES CAPITAL Ilocos Norte Laoag City Ilocos Sur Vigan La Union San Fernando City Pangasinan Lingayen Ilocos Region
- 3. Don Juan and his wife Namongan lived in Nalbuan, now part of La Union in the northern part of the Philippines. They had a son named Lam-ang. Before Lam-ang was born, Don Juan went to the mountains in order to punish a group of their Igorot enemies. While he was away, his son Lam-ang was born. It took four people to help Namongan give birth. As soon as the baby boy popped out, he spoke and asked that he be given the name Lam-ang. He also chose his godparents and asked where his father was. BIAG NI LAM-ANG
- 4. After nine months of waiting for his father to return, Lam-ang decided he would go look for him. Namongan thought Lam- ang was up to the challenge but she was sad to let him go. During his exhausting journey, he decided to rest for awhile. He fell asleep and had a dream about his father’s head being stuck on a pole by the Igorot. Lam-ang was furious when he learned what had happened to his father. He rushed to their village and killed them all, except for one whom he let go so that he could tell other people about Lam-ang’s greatness.
- 5. Upon returning to Nalbuan in triumph, he was bathed by women in the Amburayan river. All the fish died because of the dirt and odor from Lam-ang’s body.
- 6. There was a young woman named Ines Kannoyan whom Lam-ang wanted to woo. She lived in Calanutian and he brought along his white rooster and gray dog to visit her. On the way, Lam-ang met his enemy Sumarang, another suitor of Ines whom he fought and readily defeated.
- 7. Lam-ang found the house of Ines surrounded by many suitors all of whom were trying to catch her attention. He had his rooster crow, which caused a nearby house to fall. This made Ines look out. He had his dog bark and in an instant the fallen house rose up again. The girl’s parents witnessed this and called for him. The rooster expressed the love of Lam-ang. The parents agreed to a marriage with their daughter if Lam-ang would give them a dowry valued at double their wealth. Lam-ang had no problem fulfilling this condition and he and Ines were married.
- 8. It was a tradition to have a newly married man swim in the river for the rarang fish. Unfortunately, Lam-ang dove straight into the mouth of the water monster Berkakan. Ines had Marcos get his bones, which she covered with a piece of cloth. His rooster crowed and his dog barked and slowly the bones started to move. Back alive, Lam-ang and his wife lived happily ever after with his white rooster and gray dog.
- 9. Comprehension Questions: 1. Describe Lam-ang. What is his dominant character trait? 2. Identify the character trait of Lam-ang that is valued by Filipinos up to the present time. 3. Describe traits of the characters that are realistic. What are not? 4. Point out the common character of the village people. Is it true to both men and women, young and old alike? 5. Do you know anybody who is like Lam-and? How is he similar to Lam-ang?
