      <description>Title: A Study on the Rehabilitation Project of the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church
Authors: Guda, Abigail G.
Abstract: The Study on the Rehabilitation Project of St. Alphonsus Mary&#xD;
de Liguori Parish Church answers the question: How was the&#xD;
rehabilitation of the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish&#xD;
Church managed? It examines the two fundamental aspects of&#xD;
project management, which are planning and implementation. The&#xD;
study documents the history and background, and the&#xD;
architectural features of the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori&#xD;
Parish Church prior to the rehabilitation project. The study&#xD;
also documents the rehabilitation project and the changes made&#xD;
to the original structure.&#xD;
In 1968, National Artist for Architecture Leandro V. Locsin&#xD;
designed the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church, whose&#xD;
design is the precursor of that of the Folk Arts Theater.&#xD;
Unfortunately, in September 9, 2005, the interior of the parish&#xD;
church was badly damaged in a fire brought about by faulty&#xD;
electrical wiring. The damage was extensive that only the 28&#xD;
concrete buttresses and the fins of the old church structure&#xD;
remained which accounts to 70-80% of the whole structure.&#xD;
Through the initiative of parish priest, Rev. Fr. Benito B.&#xD;
Tuazon, and the collaboration of the parish community, the&#xD;
church underwent rehabilitation with Dominic Galicia as its new architect. There are two committees-the Fundraising Committee&#xD;
and the Construction Committee-formed to handle the management&#xD;
of the rehabilitation project of the St. Alphonsus Mary de&#xD;
Liguori Parish Church.&#xD;
With the proper guidance of Architect Dominic Galicia, the&#xD;
parish decided on a&#xD;
returning a building&#xD;
preserving the features&#xD;
rehabilitation project which involves&#xD;
into use through alteration while&#xD;
of the original building which are&#xD;
significant to its historical and architectural value. Architect&#xD;
Dominic Galicia, as a member of the Advisory Council of the&#xD;
Heritage Conservation Society, was very much concerned about&#xD;
preserving the remaining concrete structures of the old church&#xD;
to honor the work of Architect Leandro V. Locsin as a National&#xD;
Artist.&#xD;
However, in any construction project for churches, the need of&#xD;
the parish should be attended first before any architectural&#xD;
concern. As a result, in the design of the rehabilitated parish&#xD;
church, the remaining fins of the old church had to be&#xD;
eliminated in the process to provide room for the frontline and&#xD;
in the mezzanine. In the rehabilitated St. Alphonsus Mary de&#xD;
Liguori Parish Church, the 28 concrete buttresses were the only&#xD;
parts of the old church structure that were retained. Hence,&#xD;
Architect Leandro V. Locsin' s essential architectural character of massive floating roof slab can no longer be seen. The reason&#xD;
for this can be attributed to the primary concern of addressing&#xD;
to the need of the parish for a bigger place of worship.&#xD;
With only few refinements left, the St. Alphonsus Mary de&#xD;
Liguori Parish Church was ready for use in time for the feast&#xD;
day of Saint Alphonsus on August 01, 2007. The actual&#xD;
rehabilitation project took almost two years which corresponds&#xD;
to what Architect Dominic Galicia has expected. In terms of the&#xD;
actual cost, the proposed budget of 40 million escalated to more&#xD;
than 64 million due to unavoidable circumstance which is the&#xD;
high inflation rate during the rehabilitation project.&#xD;
The St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish was successful in its&#xD;
seven objectives for the rehabilitated parish Church. The first in&#xD;
accordance with the Liturgical Requirements of the Catholic&#xD;
Church-was achieved through the constant communication of the&#xD;
parish to the Liturgical Commission. The second-it will imbibe&#xD;
and express the charisma of the patron saint, St. Alphonsus-was&#xD;
ensured with the extensive research done by Architect Dominic&#xD;
Galicia about the life and work of St. Alphonsus and&#xD;
incorporating it in the design of the rehabilitated parish&#xD;
church. The third-it will be durable and could withstand the&#xD;
test of time and natural threats-was ensured by hiring a world&#xD;
expert in seismic engineering, Structural Engineer Carlos Villaraza. The fourth-it will be functional and worshipper oriented-&#xD;
is brought about by complying with the Liturgical&#xD;
Guidelines. The fifth-done in the most economical way possible was&#xD;
achieved by applying the concept of value engineering and&#xD;
direct negotiation of the parish with the suppliers. The fifth environmentally&#xD;
concerned-was attained by the incorporation of&#xD;
operable glass window in the church's new design. The last something&#xD;
bigger-was achieved by adding a mezzanine level.&#xD;
The study concluded that the rehabilitation of the St.&#xD;
Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church was effectively and&#xD;
efficiently managed by the key people involved which aid for the&#xD;
achievement of the vision and objectives of the parish. This was&#xD;
realized through the careful planning, constant coordination,&#xD;
and having vision and objectives. Consequently, a magnificent&#xD;
and liturgically sound parish church comes out from the ruins of&#xD;
the original structure.&#xD;
Furthermore, even though, the 28 concrete buttresses are now&#xD;
only 20-30% of the new church, it is worth mentioning that the&#xD;
parish made an effort to save what was left of the church&#xD;
designed by National Artist for Architecture Leandro Locsin.&#xD;
Having a background on architectural heritage preservation is of&#xD;
great importance. Without this, what was left of the church&#xD;
might have been totally lost.</description>

      <title>A Museum Collections Study of the Local Church Based Museum in Manaoag, Pangasinan</title>

      <description>Title: A Museum Collections Study of the Local Church Based Museum in Manaoag, Pangasinan
Authors: Cruz, Merbennyl C.
Abstract: Manaoag, a town 4 00 years old, is truly a place wealthy with the arts, culture and tradition. The town is a destination for religious pilgrimage.&#xD;
Our Lady of Manaoag Museum is the only ecclesiastical&#xD;
museum under the supervision and care of the Dominicans in the&#xD;
whole town and in the entire Pangasinan. The Manaoag church has&#xD;
succeeded in putting up a museum for their collections.&#xD;
&#xD;
The collections of the museum consist of religious objects&#xD;
that were used in early times during celebrations and functions&#xD;
by priests, and al so objects given by devotees of the Blessed&#xD;
Virgin of Manaoag as their way of showing their love for Her.&#xD;
Some of the objects, most especially the instruments used by the&#xD;
priests and their assistants in masses, benediction, Holy&#xD;
Sacrament, baptism, etc., such as the priests' vestments, a re&#xD;
four centuries old. Part of the recent collections like the&#xD;
per fumes, and accessories such as jewelry and rosaries of the&#xD;
Blessed Mother are greater in number than the religious objects&#xD;
of the church.&#xD;
This study is on the Manaoag museum collections, focusing&#xD;
on the policies and pr act ices of Our Lady of Manaoaq Museum.&#xD;
There are no written policies for the museum, especially for &#xD;
their collections. Collections management policy is very&#xD;
essential for the collections to be well preserved and&#xD;
maintained. Policies on collecting, documenting and research&#xD;
should be made by the museum for its development, and co guide&#xD;
them when the opportunity comes for museum expansion.&#xD;
Due to the fact that the Our Lady of Manaoag museum lacks&#xD;
collections management policies, the researcher proposed one for&#xD;
them. The proposal will consist of the purpose or the objective&#xD;
of the museum, its goals, and will also serve as a guide for&#xD;
them in performing the aspects and functions of collections&#xD;
management acquiring, documenting, research, conservation,&#xD;
security, and exhibit ion. It will best describe the museum and&#xD;
help them perform these functions well.&#xD;
Now as the museum turns two in May 2002, the church should&#xD;
feel the need to be systematic in managing the museum, most&#xD;
especially with regards to its collections.</description>

      <description>Title: Kalibo Santo Niño Ati-atihan: Ang Mga Pagbabago sa Pagdiriwang
Authors: De Aro, Devriz B.
Abstract: Ang "Kalibo Santo Nino Ati-atihan: Ang Mga Pagbabago sa Pagdiriwang sa&#xD;
Loob ng I 990 Hanggang 2007'' ay naglalayong malaman ang mga pagbabago du lot ng&#xD;
panahon. Sa pagdiriwang na ito hinanap ang mga pagbabago sa pagdiriwang simula ng&#xD;
taong 1990 hanggang 2007. Layunin din ng pag-aaral na ito na malaman kung masama o&#xD;
maganda ang epekto ng pagbabago sa pagdiriwang.&#xD;
Ang metodolihiyang ginamit sa pag-aaral na ito ay ang pagsusuri sa mga aklat,&#xD;
maga,ine, inilahad sa internet, larawan at listahan ng mga krimen. Nagbigay din ng mga&#xD;
katanungan sa nag-oorganisa ng pista, mamamayan ng Kalibo, pari at mga pulis sa&#xD;
Kalibo. Sinuri ang mga datos na nakuha ng mananaliksik at nakakuha siya ng kasagutan&#xD;
sa kanyang suliranin.&#xD;
Ang mga pagbabagong nakita ng mga pangunahing impormante ay ang&#xD;
sumusunod: una ay pagdami ng mga aktibidades sa pagdiriwang dahil sa Kalibo Atiatihan&#xD;
Management Board katulad ng mga Kainan sa Plaza, pinahabang sayawan sa&#xD;
Magsaysay Park at paligsahan sa kostyum, pangalawa ay magastos sa mamamayan ng&#xD;
Kalibo at karatig lugar, pangtatlo ay sayawan o sadsad sa daan ay sinasabayan na ng&#xD;
lantarang inuman, pang-apat ay ang Magsaysay Park ay naging lugar na ng !aha! na&#xD;
aktibidades na pang-gabi katulad ng "bayle" o sayawan, panglima ay pagbabago sa mga&#xD;
tawag ng mga aktibidades katulad ng Kalibo Santo Nii\o Ati-atihan na dati ay Kalibo Atiatihan,&#xD;
pang-anim ay pagsali ng mga taga-ibang lugar sa paligsahan ng kostyum.</description>

      <title>Ang Bultong ng Banaue, Ifugao</title>
      <link>http://dspace.cas.upm.edu.ph:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/3652</link>
      <description>Title: Ang Bultong ng Banaue, Ifugao
Authors: Manipod, Christina C.
Abstract: Ang tesis na i to ay may layuning masagot ang&#xD;
katanungang " A&#x10003b;o nga· ba ang tradisyong llul tong sa Banaue,&#xD;
Ifugao? Sekundaryong suliranin ang katanungang, "Buhay pa&#xD;
ba ito sa kasalukuyang panahon?"&#xD;
Ang mga katanungang ito ay nasagot sa pamamagitan ng&#xD;
mga hakbang na isinagawa ng mananaliksik. Una sa lahat ang&#xD;
pagpunta sa Banaue at sa mga ilang barangay nito upang&#xD;
kapanayamin ang mga matatandang may alam sa tradisyon.&#xD;
Nakatulong din ang panayam sa mga kawani ng pamahalaan&#xD;
partikular na ang NCIP Lagawe at NCIP sa Quezon City, o ang&#xD;
National Commission on Indigenous People. Mas naunawaan pa&#xD;
din ang konseptong ito nang magkaroon ng re-enacment ni to&#xD;
sa Bangaan Village, Ifugao. Dahil dito, naobserbahan ng&#xD;
mananaliksik ang buong paraan ng pagsasagawa ng tradisyon.&#xD;
Hindi rin maikakaila ang malaking tulong ng pagsasaliksik&#xD;
sa mga silid-aklatan kung saan may nakuha pang mga datos&#xD;
ukol sa tradisyong ito.&#xD;
Sa pagtatapos ng pag-aaral, napag-alamang ang bul tong&#xD;
ay isang ritwal na binubuo ng materyal at di-materyal na&#xD;
elemento. Ito ay mai tuturing ding sagrado at hindi bast a&#xD;
bas ta ang pagsasagawa. Ang materyal na elemento ng&#xD;
pakikipagbuno sa katunggali bilang pagpapakita ng lakas ng&#xD;
kalalakihan sa Ifugao at bilang paraan ng pagsasaayos ng&#xD;
usapin sa lupa, ang pagsigaw bago lumusob sa katunggali,&#xD;
ang canao na isinasagawa bago ang bultong na kinapapalooban&#xD;
naman ng pagkatay sa isang alay tulad ng manok na&#xD;
nagsisimbolo ng offering sa mga diyos na siya ding&#xD;
pinagbabasehan ng kapalaran ng kalahok sa pamamagi tan ng&#xD;
pagsusuri sa bile o apdo nito, ang canao pa din matapos ang&#xD;
bultong at ang hid.it o peace pact ng magkabilang panig. Ang di-materyal na elementong naki ta ay ang myth na&#xD;
pinagmula nito; ang tradisyon ng pagsasagawa nito na&#xD;
pinamumunuan ng mga elders; ang oral na tradisyon na&#xD;
ipinasa ng mga matatancla sa Ifugao partikular na ang mga&#xD;
mumbaki; ang debosyon sa mga diyos at ninuno na nakikita sa&#xD;
panalangin sa cafiao; ang demand nito o pangangailangan sa&#xD;
pagsasagawa ni to kung saan may kinalaman sa usaping&#xD;
pagmamay-ari ng lupa.&#xD;
Ang bultong sa kasalukuyan ay bahagi ng Imbayah&#xD;
Festival kung saan ito ay isang sports contest na&#xD;
nilalahukan ng iba't ibang barangay sa Banaue. Ito ang&#xD;
paraan ng pag-alala sa mga traclisyong Ifugao. Samakatuwicl&#xD;
ang bultong ay buhay na lamang sa alaala ng mga tao sa&#xD;
pamamagitan ng Imbayah. Ang festival na ito na ginaganap&#xD;
kacla taon ang nagsisilbing tagapagpasigla sa traclisyon.&#xD;
Nagsimula ang&#xD;
nagpapatuloy pa&#xD;
panahong ito ay&#xD;
Imbayah sa Banaue noong taong 1979 at&#xD;
rin hanggang&#xD;
ang pagsasagawa&#xD;
ngayon. Kasabay sa&#xD;
din nito sa iba' t&#xD;
mga&#xD;
ibang&#xD;
barangay sa Banaue bilang traclisyon sa pagsasaayos ng mga&#xD;
s igalot sa 1 upa. Sa katunayan, may nai talang record ang&#xD;
NCIP Lagawe ng totoong kaso nito sa pagitan ng dalawang&#xD;
pamilya noong taong 2000. Nangangahulugan itong ang bultong&#xD;
bilang ritwal ay may pinipiling panahon sa pagsasagawa. Ito&#xD;
ay maituturing na seasonal lamang kung gawin. Isa ito sa&#xD;
 mga salik na nakaapekto sa survival ng traktisyon. Mayroon na&#xD;
rin makabago at mas mabilis na paraan ng pag-aayos ng&#xD;
usapin sa lupa ngayon. Nariyan ang korte, abogado at mga&#xD;
pag-uusap na iclinaclaan na lamang sa papel o dokumento.&#xD;
Maaaring mas pinipili na lang sa ngayon ng mga katutubo sa&#xD;
Banaue at sa iba pang bahagi ng Ifugao ang mas mabilis at&#xD;
tiyak na pagsasaayos ng lupa. Ito ay sa papel na lamang o dokumento.</description>
