    eventual politician.

    By far his most important
    contribution to Philippine studies
    is El Folk-Lore Filipino published
    in 1889 that contains stories on
    local folklores, such as legends,
    fables, and superstitions.
    RESIL MOJARES
    -considers Isabelo de los Reyes as one of the “Brains of the Nation”
    In other work, entitled Apuntes para un
    ensayo de teodica filipina: la religion del
    Katipunan (Notes in Order to Familiarize
    Myself with Philippine Theodicy, 1899), de
    los Reyes expounds on the origin of the
    Katipunan as he also discusses the
    foundations of early religion of the natives .
    Lifted from the work, de los Reyes narrates that:

    “However, in as much as the Filipino people were


    still very young, its heart was still virgin and its
    mind was still pure and healthy, without these
    sophisms which are used to artfully conceal
    teachings, which are intended to exploit and take
    advantage of those who easily, believe them. On
    the other hand, the ancient Filipino religion was
    also purer and more rational than those religions,
    which today claim to be true and philosophically
    correct, such as certain mysticisms of Christianity
    and Brahmanism”
    PEDRO PATERNO
    -He was born on February 27, 1858 in
    Santa Cruz, Manila.
    -A poet and novelist
    -He was another intellectual who had
    great interest in early Filipinos and
    their culture.

    Ninay embodies spirit of
    early nationalism against a
    backdrop of racism because of
    Paterno’s narration on the
    uniqueness of Filipino culture
    NINAY and the dynamism of Philippine
    (1885) History with infusions of
    foreign civilizations.
    Paterno wrote numerous dissertations on
    Filipino culture that include:
