Because conversion was Spain’s imperial project in all its colonies, the church, as an institution, became a major player in the colonial enterprise. Christianization became a constitutive force in the country’s colonial affairs as friars were sent to the archipelago to realize Spain’s mission of conversion. From early accounts, it can be surmised that it was the work of religious missionaries that became the most influential factor in the transformation of the cultural behavior of the people in acquiring a Westernized consciousness. The article looks at the conditions that underpinned the transformation of church music in nineteenth-century modernity in the colony, approached through the prism of published music scores. It brings to light both friars and non-religious church musicians who had an active role in transforming the musical life of the colonial capital, being prime movers in the musical scene of the city and contributing to the formation of the city’s sacred music culture. It is interesting to explore this construction within the musical milieu of Intramuros when the church got preoccupied with significant developments of modernity particularly that of lithographic music printing.

In light of the celebration of the five centuries of Christianity in the Philippines, this article hopes to reintroduce Fr. Zeferino González, OP, to scholars of Church history, philosophy, and cultural heritage. He was an alumnus of the University of Santo Tomás, a Cardinal, and a champion of the revival of Catholic Philosophy that led to the promulgation of Leo XIII’s encyclical Aeterni Patris. Specifically, this essay presents, firstly, the Cardinal’s biography in the context of his experience as a missionary in the Philippines; secondly, the intellectual tradition in Santo Tomás in Manila, which he carried with him until his death; and lastly, some reasons for his once-radiant memory to slip into an underserved forgetfulness.

The existing historiography primarily discusses the early Philippine experience of Roman Catholic conversion in terms of (a) conversion’s success or failure, or (b) local resistance against colonial hegemony. This article, meanwhile, approaches the confrontation generated by conversion as a process of colonial knowledge production. The concept of “idolatry” was central to this confrontation. I ask: in what ways did indigenous agents help create this concept as it was used locally? This essay examines two late-seventeenth century missionary investigations into indigenous animism. They took place in and around Bolinao, Pangasinan and Santo Tomas, Batangas, both communities in the northern Philippine island of Luzon. Together, these investigations generated interviews with indigenous respondents, whose transcriptions are housed at the Archivo General de Indias in Seville, Spain. Initially, neither the missionaries nor the missionized had a clear idea of what local words, actions, and objects counted as “idolatrous.” Indigenous agents constructed generalizations about their religious beliefs to advance their own interests, to protect themselves from persecution, and to understand indigenous deities within their increasingly colonial reality. The indigenous were not passive gatherers of raw data for missionary ethnographers. They were, in their own right, producers of colonial knowledge.

Diego Cera has been heralded as the builder of the Bamboo Organ of Las Piñas. This article explores how he passed on his technical knowledge to his apprentices, who after his death, continued building pipe organs during the middle of the 19th century. When all the organs he built and the social environment in which he worked are integrated in his life story, a new picture emerges with lessons for the future of church music in the country.

: The present article attempts to present the most complete biography of one of the earliest and most outstanding Recollect missionaries in the Philippines, Fr. Rodrigo de San Miguel. After reviewing the extanct literature on the friar, it will shed light on the main activities of Fr. San Miguel in the Philippines and will explore his bizarre travel from Asia to Europe and also his problems with Holy Inquisition. Lastly, it will review his abundant written production, presenting a few titles never mentioned. Separating the myth from the real man, Fr. Rodrigo de San Miguel appears as a very versatile figure: as a missionary, scholar of theology, chronicler, adventurer, and also a geostrategist of the Catholic missions in Asia.

The objective of this paper is twofold. First, to underline the fact that the Relación de las Islas Filipinas (ca. 1654) responded to the need to provide “entera notiçia de las cosas” to the new governor of the Philippines, Don Sabiniano Manrique de Lara, to promote good government. And second, to demonstrate how this report was drawn up to convince the new governor to fight against Muslim sultanates as a way to protect the Lutaos and Suban natives, thereby spreading the Catholic faith in the southern islands of Mindanao and Sulu. Placing it into Manila’s troubled relationship with the Muslim population, Francisco Combés’ Relación was a minor but no less important work. It was a complete report – entera relación - which used witness-based (autoptic) knowledge and empirical practices, with imperialist biases. Nonetheless, this new knowledge was not an imposition of hegemonic cultural models but the result of cultural exchanges across Muslim, Christian, and native cultures.
本文的目的是双重的。首先，强调Relación de las Islas philippine as(约1654年)响应了向菲律宾新总督Don Sabiniano Manrique de Lara提供“entera notiia de las cosas”的需要，以促进良好的政府。其次，为了证明这份报告是如何起草的，以说服新总督与穆斯林苏丹国作战，以此来保护卢陶斯和苏班原住民，从而在南部的棉兰老岛和苏禄岛传播天主教信仰。弗朗西斯科•康姆萨梅斯(Francisco comcom)的Relación是一项次要但同样重要的工作，将其置于马尼拉与穆斯林人口的麻烦关系中。这是一份完整的报告——entera relación——它使用了基于证人的(自动)知识和经验实践，带有帝国主义的偏见。尽管如此，这种新知识并不是霸权文化模式的强加，而是穆斯林、基督教和本土文化之间文化交流的结果。
