    Assignment for Module 1

    Name: Neale John M Oliva Date of Submission: 8/05/2019


    Section: STEM 12 L Subject: CONPHIL

    I. Direction study these Fernando Amorsolo and Leonardo Da Vinci paintings,


    and answer the following questions in a complete sentence(s).

    1. What do these paintings share in common?


    Answer: The things that they shared in common are, in both paintings
    we can see that the subject is a woman. The differences bettween those two is that
    both showed a different culture. They are both woman painted by one of the
    greatest artists, Fernando Amorsolo who is also known as one of Philippines'
    greatest arts and Leonardo da Vinci who is an Italian Renaissance painter known
    for his famous painting, Mona Lisa. The thing is, those two showed distinctively
    feminine nature, where they showcase the culture of their country and time. That’s
    why they share in common.

    2. How differently did Amorsolo treat the subject?


    Answer: Amorsolo communicated his sentiments fervidly to the show-
    stopper he made in light of the fact that he underscored the hues, surface, feeling,
    and the everyday lives of Filipinos living in a country foundation. He likewise tells
    his gathering of people on how Filipinas were dealt with and on how they live
    some time recently. Since the country is a tropical country, farming made the
    country to be known as an agricultural land where both filipinos and filipinas work
    as one, to provide the needs of the country and fellow man

    3. What makes Palay Maiden truly Filipino?


    Answer: The Palay Maiden truly Filipino because of the details shown in
    the piece. A lady posing for a smile while holding palay reflects the Filipino's
    culture since rice is a big commodity to our country. Filipinos acknowledge and
    cherish rice. They work their hands off to add to the improvement of their nation
    and their families. They were not regarded as though they were some kind of
    sovereignty to be served. The lady is portrayed with Round face, nose and the dark
    brown complexion unlike the western type of beauty. In conclusion, what makes
    the Palay Maiden truly Filipino because of the Palay (Which can be seen in the
    painting) and the beauty of a Filipina. Aside from that wearing the traditional
    clothes from that time made a Filipina unique that show modesty, integrity and
    purity

    II. Direction: Answer if it’s a Yes or a No then depend or


    explain your answer. (at least 3-4 paragraphs)

    1. Do you think that the usage of English in literature


    lessens the “Filipino-ness” of the literary work?
    Explain.

    No, Using English language to express or to deliver a message by means of


    literature does not lessen the Filipino-ness of the literary work. Since English is a
    worldwide language, conveying the Filipino literature in the norm of English
    language to the world makes our presence more noticeable. Expressing the Filipino
    cultures for others to understand, makes way for other country to understand what
    being a Filipino means.
    Tourist also may increase just by reading literatures about Philippines'
    famous tourist spot in the norm of English language. One great example of Filipino
    literature are Jose Rizal's Noli Me Tangere and El Filibutirismo, these novels were
    not written in Filipino, but the essence of conveying strong and powerful message
    on the life under the regime of the Spaniards, sparks many Filipino to fight for our
    country's freedom.
    As the way of expressing and conveying a message is to show Filipino pride, then
    using English of other language does not lessen the Filipino-ness of the Philippine
    Literature. The way we promote and show the pride of the Filipinos by using the
    English language is a great step for us, making it more reliable and easy to
    interpret the stories behind Filipino literacy. It is the key to exhibit the talents of
    our great fellow Filipinos, to show that we are remarkable and we can do great
    things like others.
