Since the time of the Reformist Movement (1870s-1890s), Filipino scholars have been reinterpreting Philippine history from a nationalist/Malay/Asian stand point, so to speak the struggle to an ideal National History. This session extols the development of the research, writings, and understanding on the world of our ancestors.
