    Statement ang Malolo: An analysis of an Ilonggo concept
    Bartonico, Alora Grace P. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2010-04)
    This paper examines the different perspectives that have been used to define the meaning of Ilonggo concept malolo. It argues that the concept malolo derives not only its linguistic characteristics but it is also manifested through observable behaviors of Ilonggos. It reviews the meaning of the concept across history by inspecting some pieces of Ilonggo literature of the 20th century. This paper also examines the meaning of the term as it is understood by today's speakers themselves. It describes the use of the term malolo as a stereotype for Ilonggos by both Hiligaynon and non-Hiligaynon speakers. It observes that the concept has different uses and meanings across generations; as well, the understanding of the concept differs from rural and urban areas

    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.
