Contemporary Philippine Historians and Philippine History
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 August 2009
Extract
Currently two historical societies exist in the Philippines, the Kapisanang Pangkasaysayan ng Pilipinas (Philippine Historical Association) and the Philippine National Historical Society. Each of these organizations sponsors a journal. The Kapisanang Pangkasaysayan issues the Historical Bulletin, formerly entitled Buletin ng Samahang Pangkasaysayan ng Pilipinas and Buletin ng Kapisanang Pangkasaysayan ng Pilipinas, in English, Tagalog, and Spanish; and the Historical Society publishes The Journal of History, formerly called the Journal of the Philippines Historical Society, in English. Other scholarly journals that from time to time contain articles about Philippine and Southeast Asian history are the Ateneo de Manila's Philippine Studies, the University of Manila's Journal of East Asiatic Studies, the University of the Philippines' Philippine Social Sciences and Humanities Review, Silliman University's Silliman Journal, Centro Escolar University's Graduate and Faculty Studies, the Universidad de Santo Tomás' Unitas, and the Philippine Sociological Society's Philippine Sociological Review. Moreover, Philippine newspapers — notably the Philippines Free Press, the Fookien Times, Sunday Chronicle, Daily Mirror, and The Sunday Times Magazine — feature some historical essays. All of these publications are in English except Unitas, which is in both Spanish and English, and the Fookien Times, which is in Chinese and English.
