Synopsis "MYTHS & SYMBOLS, Philippines (in English)"
Father Demetrio has been concerned with Philippine Mythology and Folklore for a good number of years now even before these themes moved into the brighter light of more general attention and interest. For some time now he has been interested, not only in gathering together data on Philippine folklore, folk beliefs and practices, but in instituting a dialogue between philosophy and theology and the world of myth and symbol in Philippine context.He has for years labored patiently and perseveringly in the interest and service of this vari-faceted dialogue. Even a cursory reading of these essays will tell the reader that there is much of interest between the covers of this book for a very wide range of students. Father Demetrio has gathered a wealth of information and data, which he presents with care. He raises questions and points for reflection, takes up at least tentative positions which will surely stimulate others to study more deeply and to reflect more fully on the issues which are here brought to light.PHILIPPINE MYTHS: THEIR MEANINGTowards an Understanding of Philippine MythsEarly Filipino View of the Universe: The Sky WorldCreation Myths among the Early FilipinosDeath: Its Origin and Related Beliefs among Early FilipinosThe Visit of the Dead and Their Return to LifeEngkanto Belief: An Essay in InterpretationTowards a Classification of Bisayan Folk Beliefs and CustomsChecklist of BeliefsRELIGIOUS SYMBOLS IN ORAL TRADITIONReligious Dimensions of Some Philippine FolktalesThemes in Philippine FolktalesFilipino Folk Memory and the PasyonOn Magical Prayers and Living ChristianityNATIVE RELIGIONS AND MODERNIZATION AND OTHER ESSAYSThe Shaman as PsychologistShamans, Witches and Philippine SocietyHumanity in Philippine EpicsWaterlore in MindanaoCreativity and Being Truly HumanXavier University: Center for Studies in Southeast Asian Cultures and ReligionsThe Heritage of MindanaoIndigenous Religions and Christianity in the Modernization Process of the Philippines
