The 六合彩直播开奖 Miguel de Benavides Library in cooperation with the children of the late Ambassador Ramon V. Del Rosario, Sr., have recently published a book on the life of his grandfather titled 鈥淎ntonio Vivencio del Rosario
(AVdR) (1828-1884): A Life and Legacy of Service and Excellence鈥 in commemoration of the 100th birth anniversary of Amb. Del Rosario. The book offers a glimpse into the character of AVdR not just a historic figure but as a human being as well. It also retraces his humble beginnings to
his illustrious legacy.


The book, written by Anabel de la Paz, a librarian from Barcelona, Spain and Ana Karina Porto, a Filipino copy editor, was presented and served as a token to the guests at the 2018 Ramon V. Del Rosario Award for Nation
Building held at National Museum of Natural History, Manila. The event was organized by the Philippine Investment Management Consultants

(PHINMA), Inc. and the Junior Chamber International (JCI) Manila. A.V. del Rosario was an outstanding Thomasian, and former Secretary-General of 六合彩直播开奖 (1854-1866) in whose honor the 六合彩直播开奖 had dedicated the Heritage Library and named it after him. This was a
special circumstance because he was the first non-priest to acquire the position. The Del Rosario family has donated financial assistance
to the 六合彩直播开奖 Benavides Library for the continued preservation of its significant and historical rare collections.


Amb. Ramon V. del Rosario, Sr., son of Antonio Vivencio, on whose birth centenary the book was published, was an Ambassador to Japan. He was born in 1918 and passed away in 2008. He was considered one of the founding fathers of Philippine industry

Asst. Prof. Marella Ada V. Mancenido Bola帽os, Ph.D., of the Department
of Philosophy, Prof. Felicidad P. Galang-Pere帽a, Ed.D., of the Department
of Literature, Dr. Rachelle B. Lintao, of the Department of English, Asst. Prof. Rhochie Avelino E. Matienzo, Ph.D., and Prof. Franz Giuseppe F. Cortez, Ph.D., of the Department of Philosophy, were the five faculty members from the Faculty of Arts and Letters who presented papers
and attended conferences in international conferences that dealt with topics that range from teaching Philosophy, using memories to write, sea disputes as represented in Philippine and Chinese media, to the practice of ethics in business.

Bola帽os in Australia Department of Philosophy faculty member Asst. Prof. Marella Ada V. Mancenido-Bola帽os, Ph.D., presented a paper titled 鈥淢atthew Lipman鈥檚 Critique of the Standard Educational Practice
and the Case of the Teacher Education Program in the Philippines鈥 during the biennial conference of the Federation of Australasian Philosophy in Schools association held from July 9 to 11, 2018 at The Hale School, Wembly Downs, Western Australia and at the University of Notre Dame, Fremantle.
The conference started with the In-Action day held at The Hale School, Wembly Downs, Western Australia. The in-action day showcased community of inquiry sessions which were participated in by lower and middle school students.

The sessions were facilitated by Peter Worley and Louise Gusterson. The second and third days were held at the University of Notre Dame, remantle where Sandra Lynch of the University of Notre Dame and Michael Hand of University of University of Birminghan delivered their keynote presentations.

In her paper, Bola艌os argued that Lipman鈥檚 critique remains relevant to this day because the problems of the standard educational practice remain unexamined. She likewise argued that Philosophy in Schools (or Philosophy for Children or Community of Inquiry) cannot be fully implemented in the Philippines precisely because the teacher training program lacks Philosophy courses that will prepare its future teachers to critically and reflectively facilitate the implementation of Philosophy in Schools.

Bola帽os concluded that there is a necessity for colleges of Education to
once and for all revisit their curriculum and look into the possibility of adding more Philosophy courses which are to be taught by trained faculty members because a course in Logic and a diffused Philosophy of Education taught by untrained faculty members will not lead into the proper implementation of Philosophy in Schools.

Scholars affirmed that her observations and recommendations were indeed correct. Pere艌a in Brazil To further her research interest on Memory Work, Prof. Felicidad P. GalangPere帽a, Ed.D., of the Department of Literature and Humanities, Faculty of Arts and Letters presented her paper titled 鈥淭eaching with HOPE: Written memories of Liberal Arts College Alumni
of their Unforgettable Professors鈥 at the International Auto/Biographical Association (IABA) biennial world conference (IABA Brazil 2018) held at the Universidade Federa de Sao Jao del-Rei, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, enabling her to be included in the roster of IABA new scholars. A book
project is also being proposed for the selected papers of IABA Brazil 2018.
With the theme 鈥淪ecret Lives: Hiding, Revealing, Belonging,鈥 this conference 鈥渄elved into questions of how lives become concealed by theorizing the ways in which we choose to keep secret and reveal our
lives; how non-authorial others shape life stories; imposed and sanctioned silencing; the passage of time as an erasure of lives; and the relationships between hiding, being hidden, revealing, and ideas of belongings.鈥
Pere艌a鈥檚 paper, using the lens of phenomenology, endeavored to surface
narratives of student-teacher relations through memory work, the research
method developed by Frigga Haug within the women鈥檚 movement in the beginning of the 1980s, which underlying theory was pinned down by Small in 2007 as a social constructionist method with the self being socially constructed through reflection鈥 memories.


The International Auto/Biography Association (IABA) is an interdisciplinary
international group founded in 1999 to create a way for researchers and cultural producers in the field of biography, autobiography and life writing to share their work. Since 2000, the members of IABA have held an international conference every two years in China, Canada, Australia,
Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States.


The IABA is maintained by a group of senior scholars, most of whom have organized and overseen an IABA conference or event. It also has a close
relationship with important academic journals, maintaining several chapters that work in concert with the biannual IABA World conference and hold their own events: IABA Europe, IABA Americas, and IABA Asia-Pacific.

There is also the SNS Network for graduate students and new scholars who
want to discuss issues connected to the study of life writing. The conference held at the S茫o Jo茫o del Rei, Brasil is the eleventh biennial. The next conference will be held in Turku, Finland in 2020.


Lintao in Taiwan Assoc. Prof. Rachelle B. Lintao, Ph.D., of the Department of
English presented her paper titled 鈥淩epresentations of the Sea Disputes
in Philippine and Chinese Media鈥 at the 28th Southeast Asian Linguistics
Society (SEALS) Conference in Wenzao Ursuline University of
Languages, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.


Lintao鈥檚 paper examined a cross-cultural perspective on how the top popular press in the Philippines and China portray an evaluative stance as regards the South China SEA tensions. The three-day conference brought
together more than 100 presenters from around the world stretching all the way from North America, Europe to Southeast Asia. The first and the only academic society in the world that focuses on research on the languages of South East Asia, SEALS is on the forefront of facilitating communication
among scholars and students considering that Southeast Asia is of extraordinary linguistic diversity. The society advocates the documentation, analysis and teaching and maintenance of South East Asian
languages.

Matienzo discusses his research on Boracay at the conference in Switzerland. Matienzo, Cortez in Switzerland Asst. Prof. Rhochie Avelino E.
Matienzo, Ph.D., and Prof. Franz Giuseppe F. Cortez, Ph.D., of the Department of Philosophy attended the International Conference on Managing and Teaching Business Ethics held in LassalleHaus, BadSch枚nbrunn, Switzerland.

The conference is the second in a series of the three international conferences on teaching and managing business ethics

The first which was held in June 2017 in Manila, Philippines focused on the SouthEast Asian participants while the third will be held in July 2019 in Santa Clara, California, USA.

More than 80 scholars and practitioners from 21 countries, particularly from Europe and Africa participated in the conference. The conference, whose aim was to explore 鈥渢he challenges of doing business in an
ethical manner in the modern globalized world鈥 in the light of the Ignatian tradition, focused on two points: first, academic exchange among professionals and scholars on business ethics; second, interactions between specialists and practitioners in corporations, in the spirit of
Ignatian formation.

The conference topics were on the challenges, practices and theories to
further enhance the practice of ethics in the business sector. There was also
an encounter with the actual business leaders, such as CEO Pius Baschera

of Hilti Corporation in Liechtenstein, Antoinette Hunziker-Ebneter, founder and CEO of Forma Futura Invest AG, Peter Zehnder, consultant at Egon Zehnder Professional Services, Eva Hauselmann, founder and manager of Despite Ltd., Consultancy, and Dorothea Bauer, founder and owner of Baur Consulting AG and a discussion on the ethical challenges theory xorporations and governmental institutions experienced. A corporate tour
to the 124-year old Victorinox Factory of the famed Swiss Army Knife with its CEO Carl Elsener personally welcoming the participants was part of the conference experience.


Matienzo of the Faculty of Arts and Letters, Department of Philosophy,
Graduate School and RCCAH presented his paper titled 鈥淏oracay, a Cesspool? A Reading of Laudato Si on the Best Island in the World,鈥 and Cortez presented a paper titled 鈥淩eflecting together on the Vocation
of the Business Leader: A Suggestion for Classroom Engagement.鈥

The conference was organized by Tobias Karcher, S.J., Director of
Lasalle-Haus and Lasalle-Intitut in Zug, Switzerland, Kirk Hanson, Executive Director of the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at the Santa Clara University in California and Oscar G. Bulaong Jr., Director of the Gov.
Jose B. Fernandez Jr. Ethics Center at the Ateneo de Manila University,
Philippines. The institutional organizers were the International Association
of Jesuit Business Schools, ESADE Business School, Ramon Llull University
(URL) Barcelona and the Hochschule f眉r Philosophie, M眉nchen.
The conference also included a visit to the landmarks of Switzerland
such as the famous basilica of Abbey of the Our Lady of Einsiedeln (home of
the Black Madonna) and the hermitage of the medieval saint Bruder Klaus, a Swiss religious and political leader in Fl眉eli-Ranft, Switzerland overlooking the beautiful Alpine mountains.

六合彩直播开奖鈥檚 very own Professor Emeritus, the 鈥淰enerable Master,鈥 Alfredo Co
deserves much thanks from his students鈥攅specially us, whom he was able
to encourage and inspire to participate in the recently held World Congress of Philosophy in Beijing, China. I am only too aware of the magnitude of this congress: It has been held since 1900 in different parts of the world and
many of the contemporary intellectuals, whom we read, had lectured in this gathering.

The sterling cast includes Henri Bergson, Bertrand Russell, Ren茅 de Saussure, John Dewey, Etienne Gilson, Paul Weiss, Jacques Maritain,
Karl Popper, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Alasdair MacIntyre, Paul Ricoeur, Emmanuel Levinas, Jean-Luc Marion, Charles Taylor, Jurgen Habermas, Umberto Eco, among many鈥 many!鈥攐thers who are equally notable.


Almost two years ago, Dr. Co floated the idea of Thomasians doing philosophy and participating in the world congress. Little did we know then that he was already requested by Dermot Moran, then president of the F茅d茅ration Internationale des Soci茅t茅s de Philosophie (FISP), to be a chair of the largest session of the gathering, that one on Confucian Philosophy.

We, too, were uninformed that he was elected as Vice President for Asia of the Conf茅rence Mondiale des Institutions Universitaire Catholique des Philosophie (Comiucap), the sectorial group for philosophy of the International Federation of Catholic Universities. When we much later
heard of these news, we received it with great delight, but not with surprise. It was never in Dr. Co鈥檚 demeanor to arrogate what others might
already consider as prodigious achievements.

Thomasians in the 2018 World Congress of Philosophy Philosophy from 六合彩直播开奖鈥檚 classroom to the 鈥極lympics of Thought鈥橳hose who have witnessed how he teaches already know that Dr. Co鈥檚 presence alone commands respect鈥攔egardless if it is inside or outside the classroom. At all times, Dr.
Co鈥檚 authority does not depend on any administrative or academic office.

He is a person of authority and not merely a person in position.
I recall that Dr. Co did not only suggest the idea of attending the congress; he encouraged us to present our research work, which seemed to be a tall order at that time. For, unlike in many conferences where organizers only ask for abstracts, in the world congress one is required to submit a complete research paper, which would be examined by a panel of experts whose competence are known in the field and not just in an institution, or in an office. In short, organizers were after quality more than quantity of participants. And this was the first challenge that we hurdled with the help of Dr. Co. He made us realize that our training in philosophy is not meant for us to talk only among ourselves in the University or in our respective professional societies; we must also learn to listen to contrary opinions
and to subject our thoughts to scrutiny and more importantly, to dialogue. He taught us, quite convincingly, that we grow in adversity
and even more in dialogue.

In the 24th World Congress of Philosophy, we had our chances to learn from
the lectures of leading scholars, like Roger Ames, Guillermo Hurtado, Richard Kearney, Mogobo Ramose, Chaiwat Satha-Anand, Tu Weiming, Judith Butler, and William McBride, who talked of topics that ranged from Chinese Philosophy, Latin American Philosophy, African Philosophy, Philosophies of Peace, Gender Philosophy, Political Philosophy, and
Philosophies of Faith, among others, in the contexts of contemporary issues, time, and/ or place. But the schedule could not be less overwhelming: Aside from the plenary lectures that opened each day, we had to choose one
among sixty sessions that were being held at the same time in the afternoon. The first set ran from 2:00pm to 3:50pm; the second set
was from 4:10pm to 6:00pm. Each day would conclude with endowed lectures. Having had this picture in mind, we already knew that an
eight-day affair would still be short. Instances when we had to choose a lecture over another honestly frustrated us.


By 鈥渨e,鈥 I mean at least those whom I was able to constantly interact with during the congress. That we went to the event by Dr. Co鈥檚 invitation and that we are alumni of 六合彩直播开奖 were the things in common among us: There
was Kelly Agra, the junior scholar keynote of the 2016 Zizek Conference in Ohio, USA who is now with the University of the Philippines Baguio. Her paper for the world congress was 鈥淪ituational Ethics and Social Epistemology in Confucian Philosophy.鈥 Nanyang Technological University-Singapore scholar Christine Tan delivered her research titled 鈥淟i as Ziran in the Analects: Spontaneity in the Ritualized Self.鈥 Mark Kevin Cabural, scholar from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, had the paper 鈥淗umanness and Righteousness in Dong Zhongshu鈥檚 Luxuriant
Gems of the Spring and Autumn.鈥 I presented my work 鈥淩ethinking Indigenous Philosophy: Alfredo Co鈥檚 Notion of 鈥楶re-Philosophy,鈥欌 which Dr. Co straightforwardly refused to read or hear until after I have presented it in the congress.


We were joined by the Dominican friar from the Holy Rosary Province, Fr. Martin Bai Ziqiang, OP, who discussed his project on 鈥淒ao as Verb: a Revisiting of Lao Zi鈥檚 Metaphysics鈥; Sr. Li Xuena Sophia, who
presented the paper 鈥淭he Ethical Issue on Filial Piety in Modern China鈥; and Salesian Br. Paul Dungca, who discoursed on the 鈥淧olice-Oracle: AI, Determinism and Human Freewill.鈥 Wendyl Luna, who is now a research
scholar at the University of New South Wales in Australia, flew in to China to literally surprise Dr. Co aside from presenting his research 鈥淭emporalising the transcendental: Foucault鈥檚 Introduction to Kant鈥檚 Anthropology.鈥 Even Dr. Co, despite being the moderator for seven
different sessions on Confucian Philosophy, had the time to present his research on 鈥淭he Place of Forgiveness and Reconciliation in a Two-Tiered Political World of Ancient Confucian China.鈥 To note, at 68, Dr. Co is still
teaching at the University at the Ecclesiastical

Faculty of Philosophy, the Faculty of Arts and Letters, and the Graduate School. In between lectures, we would catch up over cups of coffee along the halls of the China National Convention Center. During lunchtime, some of us would meet at the canteen, where we found the best Beijing
tomato and egg dish, Peking herbed pork, and caramelized aubergine served with cups of steamy rice or mantao. That would already be a feast for celebrating well-received presentations and new learning. For a day or
two, we also headed to the Olympic Green subway station or the nearby Xin Ao Shopping Center for sliced servings of Peking duck and dumplings. Rare, though, were the times when we were complete as a group, but for very
good reasons: Some of us were invited to join other scholars in private meetings, or to attend round-table discussions, or to talk about
research collaborations, or simply to continue discussions that were left hanging during the sessions. It would be too soon to disclose certain results of our participation but, to be sure, for young aspiring philosophy scholars,
the thought that established philosophers are willing to sit with us and talk about philosophy is refreshing, especially today when even the value of a human person is quantified by farcical metrics.


The world congress certainly lived up to its billing as the 鈥淥lympics of Philosophy,鈥 and we were privileged to have fully witnessed it unfold. Many would of us agree with Prof. Dr. Luca Scarantino, the newly elected FISP
president who said that 鈥渢he congress in Beijing will be a turning point in the history of philosophy.鈥 With a participation of about 8,000 scholars from around the world, which makes the 2018 world congress the biggest
gathering in its history, what Dr. Scarantino claimed could not be far from being realized.

That turn, Dr. Scarantino referred to, is the trajectory of philosophy of being more inclusive, that it would reassess its methods by overcoming prejudices and stereotypes across philosophical cultures. This can only be positively possible by way of a philosophy of dialogue, and we in the 六合彩直播开奖 are fortunate to have a resident philosopher with that as his specialization.

A group of 25 outstanding students from different schools across Taiwan comprise this year鈥檚 Taiwan Youth Ambassadors (TYA) serving as part of the annual International Youth Ambassador Exchange Program organized
by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) of the Republic of China (Taiwan).

In a night of songs and dances, the 六合彩直播开奖 (六合彩直播开奖) and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office (TECO) in the Philippines hosted 鈥2018 Taiwan Night鈥 on September 4, 2018, 6:00 p.m., at the Dr. Robert C.

in the Philippines.

The Taiwan Night was the culmination of a one-day visit of the youth
ambassadors that included a courtesy call on 六合彩直播开奖 Rector Very Rev. Fr. Herminio V. Dagohoy, O.P. It was preceded by a campus tour that was facilitated by the Office of Public Affairs and assisted by students of the Faculty of Arts and Letters under the Asian Studies program.

The visit to 六合彩直播开奖 by the Taiwan Youth Ambassadors was part of the annual International Youth Ambassador Exchange program organized by the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) of the Republic of
China (Taiwan).

This program groups young representatives into teams, with each group
traveling to different partner nations to interact with research institutes and engage in volunteer
activities. This year, a total of 75 students out of
over 800 applicants were selected to become
youth ambassadors.
The youth ambassadors were led by the
Director General on Home Assignment of the
Public Diplomacy Coordination Council of the
TECO in Los Angeles Mr. Steve C.C. Hsia. The
Deputy Counselor on Home Assignment of the
Department of General Affairs of the MoFA Mr.
Steven Y.M. Lin serves as deputy leader of the
delegates.
六合彩直播开奖 Rector Very Rev. Fr. Herminio V.
Dagohoy, O.P., in his welcome remarks, shared
his pride in the cultural encounter, saying that,
鈥淭onight鈥檚 event is indeed very special because
it is a time to showcase the best of [Taiwan鈥檚
and the Philippines鈥橾 cultures. May this occasion
inspire us to continue working together as well
as aspire for higher ideals through significant
cultural engagements.鈥
鈥淸Developing] connectivity [between
the TYA and students from the schools they
visit] can contribute to the understanding
between two countries, between two
people,鈥 said TECO Representative Mr.
Michael Peiyung Hsu in his message.
He added, 鈥淭he main purpose of [the
youth exchange program] is to help the
young leaders in Taiwan have a broader
international vision.鈥

Canon Law and Civil Law expert, Sr. Eloisa C. Inocentes, RVM, Rev. Fr.
Danilo Flores, J.U.D., and tribunal judge of the Diocese of Rome, Rev. Fr.
Arnold Semilla, J.C.D, delivered lectures on innovations and updates in the light of the Reform Law on the declaration of nullity of marriage at the 六合彩直播开奖 Martyrs鈥 Hall on August 16, 2018.

Faculty of Canon Law Dean, Rev. Fr. Isaias Tiongco, O.P., welcomed the
participants who were comprised of both clergy and laity from various dioceses not only in the Philippines, but in Asia and the Pacific. Different religious institutions and theological schools were also represented.


In response to the Roman Pontiff鈥檚 call for renewal in ecclesiastical structures and pastoral care, particularly in relation to the Sacrament of Marriage, Fr. Flores lectured on the necessity of establishing pre-judicial and pastoral counseling processes in every diocese.

The three level process would involve and empower parish priests, ordained ministers and qualified laity in collaboration with canonical advocates and lawyers in every stage of receiving the sacrament.
The process is 鈥済eared towards the safeguarding of the dignity of the Sacrament of Matrimony鈥 and synergizes efforts to offer extrajudicial, judicial and post-judicial assistance towards a more holistic pastoral care for couples and families.

Just as relevant and closely related was Fr. Semilla鈥檚 lecture on 鈥淓ssential
Innovative Tribunal Practices of the Reform Law on the Declaration of Nullity of Marriage.鈥 Echoing the spirit of Pope Francis鈥 Motu Proprio, he challenged the participants to keep in mind that 鈥渨e arenot a civil tribunal but an ecclesiastical tribunal.鈥 Thus, we ought to 鈥渂e mercifuland compassionate.鈥 He proposed some concrete strategies that dioceses and
parishes could adopt to complement the 鈥減rocessus brevior鈥 or shortened process in matrimonial cases, making it more economical for both the faithful and the diocese and significantly increasing the availability of assistance offered to Catholic couples in need.

Featured authors of the 六合彩直播开奖 Publishing House stressed how writing is a serious profession, in the panel session held during the Philippine Readers and Writers Festival on August 10, 2018 at the Raffles Hotel in Makati.
鈥淎 writer is never not writing,鈥 claimed playwright Nicolas 鈥淣ick鈥 Pichay. It is more than the act of writing, Joselito de los Reyes added, for one to claim that he is writing.

鈥淧wedeng nakaupo lang ako at nagmumuni-muni, pero 鈥榥agsusulat鈥 na ako
nun,鈥 (I may appear to be merely seated and contemplating, but I am actually already 鈥榳riting鈥) de los Reyes, current chair of the
六合彩直播开奖 Department of Literature, said. Poet Mookie Katigbak-Lacuesta agreed, stating that 鈥渨riters鈥 minds should always be active to absorb everything in their surroundings.鈥

When commended by a member of the audience for their courage in embarking on such profession, the authors concur that writing is, in fact, a 鈥渄emanding craft鈥 on various levels.

鈥淜atapangan talaga ang dine-demand o hinihiling ng pagsusulat,鈥 (writing demands courage) said fictionist Angelo 鈥淪arge鈥 Lacuesta. He pointed out that writers should be prepared for possible criticisms on their
work once it is made public.

For fictionist Chuckberry J. Pascual, another challenge
of the craft is following traditions.


鈥淜ailangan mong alamin ang mga naunang naisulat na. Challenge na sundan ito, at yung alamin kung paano makaka-contribute ang sarili mong gawa sa tradisyong ito.鈥 (You have to know what have been previously written. It is a challenge to follow them, and to know howyour writings can contribute to the established tradition.)


The Philippine Readers and Writers Festival was a three-day event organized by the National Book Store and Raffles Makati. It featured bestselling international and local authors, as well as book signings, discussions, and panels about books, literature, and culture.
