These essays by Philippine and U.S.-based scholars illustrate the dynamism and complexities of the discursive field of Philippine studies as a critique of vestiges of "universalist" (Western/hegemonic) paradigms; as an affirmation of "traditional" and "emergent" cultural practices; as a site for new readings of "old" texts and "new" popular forms brought into the ambit of serious scholarship; and as a liberative space for new art and literary genres.

“These essays are not about Chocolate Hills and the tarsiers and the fancy beach clubs and other tourist magnets in Bohol. They are about seemingly mundane things that define a place and bind its people together—childhood games, songs, religious rituals, cultural practices, superstitions and myths, magical creatures. Here you will read about triumphs that united people in pride, disasters that drew them even closer; larger-than-life heroes and everyday heroes; changes that tested their mettle and inspired new ways of seeing as well as values that have endured; cracks in the pavements that mirrored cracks in relationships. Braiding storytelling with fictional devices, the writers merge reportage with self-reflection; weave patterns out of chaos and happenstances; and create a tapestry of memories that restores the past, turning the Bohol they love into the Bohol we love as well.” — Susan Lara

Genesis 1 1 Sa sinugdan gibuhat sa Dios ang mga langit ug ang yuta. 2 Ug ang yuta awa-aw ug walay sulod; ug ang kangitngit diha sa ibabaw sa nawong sa kahiladman; ug ang Espiritu sa Dios naglihok sa ibabaw sa nawong sa mga tubig. 3 Ug miingon ang Dios: Mahimo ang kahayag: ug dina ang kahayag. 4 Ug nakita sa Dios ang kahayag nga kini maayo; ug gilain sa Dios ang kahayag gikan sa kangitngit. 5 Ug gihinganlan sa Dios ang kahayag nga Adlaw, ug ang kangitngit gihinganlan niya nga Gabii: ug dihay kahaponon ug dihay kabuntagon, usa ka adlaw.
