Historiography and Nation since Pasyon and Revolution:

Conference in Honor of Professor Reynaldo C. Ileto

Organized jointly by

Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints and the Department of History, Ateneo de Manila University

and

Southeast Asian Studies and "Toward Sustainable Humanosphere in Southeast Asia" Research Program
Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University

To be held at the Ateneo de Manila University, Quezon City, Philippines, 8–9 February 2013

The publication of Professor Reynaldo C. Ileto’s Pasyon and Revolution: Popular Movements in the Philippines, 1840–1910 by the Ateneo de Manila University Press in 1979 was a watershed event in Philippine historiography. It reshaped the contours of Philippine history and many other disciplines. Ileto’s ideas on “history from below” inspired an entire generation of Filipino historians to critically evaluate historical sources, interrogate long-held theoretical assumptions, and adopt fresh perspectives in the study of Philippine history. Pasyon and Revolution rose to become one of the most influential books in Southeast Asian Studies.

This international conference aims to assess the influence of Professor Ileto in general, and of Pasyon and Revolution in particular, on Philippine historiography, on studies of nationalism and social movements, on theories of colonialism and postcolonialism, and on area studies and scholarship beyond the Philippines.

Scholars from the Philippines as well as Australia, Canada, India, Japan, Macau, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America will present over 60 scholarly research papers in this landmark conference.

The opening program will be held at the Leong Hall Auditorium, starting at 8:30 AM. Registration begins at 7:30 AM.

Interested participants who will not present papers are welcome to attend. Please consult http://www.philippinestudies.net to register. The registration fee for Philippine participants is P4,000 and US$100 for overseas participants. On-site registration is P5,500, with no assured conference packet.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION BY NON-PAPER PRESENTERS

The publication of Professor Reynaldo C. Ileto’s Pasyon and Revolution: Popular Movements in the Philippines, 1840–1910 by the Ateneo de Manila University Press in 1979 was a watershed event in Philippine historiography, recently given due recognition by the Ateneo de Manila University with the Gawad Tanghal ng Lahi awarded to Professor Ileto.

This defining moment in 1979 has reshaped the contours and directions not only of Philippine history but also of many other disciplines. Professor Ileto’s ideas on the writing of “history from below” were trail blazing, inspiring an entire generation of Filipino historians to critically evaluate historical sources, interrogate long-held theoretical assumptions, and adopt fresh perspectives in the study of Philippine nationalism and social movements. Deservedly, Professor Ileto is one of the most awarded and recognized Filipino historians of the contemporary generation.

Beyond the Philippines, Pasyon and Revolution has been considered one of the most influential books in Southeast Asian Studies by the editorial team of Sojourn: The Journal of Social Issues in Southeast Asia. It was the only book written by a Southeast Asian scholar and published by a Southeast Asia-based university press that found inclusion in the prestigious list. Beyond Southeast Asia, the book has caused scholars specializing on other countries in other parts of the world to take notice of Philippine studies and its relevance to their own fields of scholarship.

Over three decades have passed since the publication of Pasyon and Revolution. This international conference aims to assess the influence of Professor Ileto in general, and of Pasyon and Revolution in particular, on Philippine historiography, on studies of nationalism and social movements, on theories of colonialism and postcolonialism, and on area studies and scholarship beyond the Philippines. Scholars from the Philippines, Southeast Asia, and other parts of the world are expected to present over seventy papers in this landmark conference.
