    Physical characterization of aswang in Filipino films
    Arcenio, Ariane G.; Perez, Trexie Jane A. (Division of of Humanities , College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-04)
    This study is a content analysis on the physical characterization of aswang in Filipino films. This study determined how the Filipino films characterized aswang. Descriptive research design was used in analyzing and tallying the physical characteristics of aswang in the Filipino concept and in the eight Filipino films. Interviews with film directors were also utilized for additional support of this study. The concept of aswang emerged because of the demonization of women especially the babaylans, by the Spanish priests in the history of the Philippines. It was found out that in both Filipino concept and Filipino films, there were differences on the physical characterization of aswang. Films used the concept of aswang to perform the role of media which is to entertain the audience.

    Gahom sa binalaybay: Mayamor's poetry as vehicle of power in the resistance movement of Panay
    Arceño, Angeliza T. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2016-12)
    This study analyzes Mayamor’s poetry as a vehicle of power in the resistance movement of Panay. Using New Historicism and textual analysis, this study identifies the cultural status quo in Mayamor’s poetry as Feudal and describes its manifestations and his mechanisms to counter it by waging a National Democratic revolution through a protracted people’s war and cultural revolution. Mayamor’s poems serve as a vehicle of power in the resistance movement of Panay by using poetry as a tool to teach people about the situation in the countryside of Central Panay, for exposing the cruelty of the state and the ruling class, by being a testimony to the plight of the people, and by inviting them to be allies and join the struggle in the countryside.
