EMILIO AGUNALDO
MGA GUNITA NG HIMAGSIKAN: Historical Background
Between 1928 and 1946, he produced in long hand the first

volume of his memoirs, “Mga Gunita ng Himagsikan (1964),
”translated from the original Tagalog as “Memoirs of the
Revolution” by Sulpicio Guevara (1967).
In his preface Aguinaldo says the memoirs were based on a
diary he kept, documents he preserved, and family lore
gathered from his elders.• A second publication was made in
1998 during the 100th anniversary of Philippine Independence.
MGA GUNITA NG HIMAGSIKAN: Context
Aguinaldo wrote some of his experiences in his younger years

in his memoirs.
“I still recall during my childhood, one of the toys that my beloved

father gave me was a huge basket full of blocks two inches square.
These blocks were of different colors and on each face was written
a letter of the alphabet. My father had two motives in giving them
to me- First, that I may have something to play with and, second, to
arouse my interest in the rudiments of learning, particularly the
alphabet.”
On September 1, 1896, Jose Tagle asks Emilio Aguinaldo to help him in invading
the Spaniards in Cavite. So Aguinaldo creates his strategy in invading the Spanish,
since it his first time to make strategies, he failed. His first attempt was to save the
rectory, he tasks the group of General Baldomero Aguinaldo to go to north and the
group of Captain Municipal Tagle was to go to the south. So he gathered again his
soldiers and divides them into three groups surround the north and south of the
hacienda of Imus. With that plan they win the hacienda.
Sa paglalahad ni Heneral Aguinaldo, “bilang paghahanda sa kaunaunahang gagawing pagsalakay sa mga

kalaban, sa unang araw ng Setyembre, 1896, nagtungo si José Tagle sa Kuwartel Heneral sa kumbento ng
Cavite el Viejo, at nakipagkita kay Aguinaldo. Humingi ang una ng abuloy upang lusubin ang mga kalaban sa
bayan ng Imus. Kaagad naman itong sinang-ayunan ng huli. ”Sa ika-2 ng Setyembre 1896, isinalaysay din ni
Heneral Aguinaldo na “ang pangkat na pinanguluhan ni Heneral Baldomero Aguinaldo, ay siya kong inatasang
lilibawa sa dakong hilaga o norte, sa kanyang pagsalakay. Sa dakong timog sur, ay ang kawal naman ng
Capitan Municipal sa Imus, si G. José Tagle, at sa pangharapan o liwasan ng kumbento at simbahan, ay ang
aking pangkat, at ako pa rin ang nangunguna sa pagharap sa mga kalaban.”
The documents also tells that Aguinaldo, with

the help of Andres Bonifacio attempted to save Dr.
Jose Rizal, however Rizal’s older brother Don Paciano
Rizal contradicted to avoid the death of many
Katipuneros. So they didn’t pursue it.
Dr. Jose Rizal imprisoned in Fort Santiago

The two factions, Magdalo and Magdiwang decided to have a new

Government to strengthen their alliance against the Spaniards. Emilio
Aguinaldo along with Andres Bonifacio was nominated for President. Aguinaldo
won the election for president while Bonifacio was proclaimed as the Secretary
of Interior but General Daniel Tirona opposes.
First Philippine Election
Subali't pagkatapos na pagkatapos na maipasiya ng Asamblea ang kanyang The Tejeros Convention
tagumpay ay biglang tumindig at sumalungat sa pagkahalal sa kanya si Heneral
Emilio Aguinaldo ---------- President
Daniel Tirona, at sinabing; "Hindi nababagay si Supremo Andres Bonifacio, ang Mariano Trias---------------- Vice- President
Artemio Ricarte------------- Captain- General
tungkuling nasabi, pagka't hindi siya abogado, at ang bagay rito'y ang Abogado Emiliano Riego de Rios--- Director of War
Andres Bonifacio----------- Director of the Interior
Jose del Rosario, na taga Tanza."
The “Gunita ng Himagsikan” (Memoirs of the Reevolution)
revealed a lot of untold stories behind the Philippine history. It gives
the readers a prior knowledge on what are the specific events that
happened during the colonization of Spaniards and Americans. It
also focused on the war strategies that were developed by the
katipunans. It also tells how non- katipinero Filipinos helped on
fighting against the colonizers.
It also explained the difference between two factions.
