Aba ginoong barya, nakapupuno nga ba ng alkansya? Marcelo H. Del Pilar’s Dasalan at Tocsohan (1888)

Season 2 Cover Art Light.png

In this episode, we zone in on the propaganda movement and arguably the wittiest of its firebrands, Marcelo H. Del Pilar. His work, Dasalan at Tocsohan, parodied Catholic prayers and surely agitated the target of the propaganda movement's criticisms, the friars. Join us as we analyze this primary source and the circumstances surrounding the burgeoning agitation for reform that will lead to revolution in the late nineteenth century.
