Includes bibliography.
Facts in Fiction, is the first-ever scholarly work by a Filipino on 19th century peninsular prose fiction, explores the rich realiasocial, political and cultural of the Philippines' colonial past seen, chronicled and interpreted by Spanish writers. The stories analyzed delineate a fragmented society peopled by stereotypes (e.g., the proud and honorable Spaniard, the wealthy mestizo, the lowly indio, and the wily Chinese trader) who breathe, interact and clash in a lifestyle of ostentation, leisure, arrogance, primitive beliefs, cunning and ambition. Notwithstanding the incisive portrayal of Philippine life, the narratives fail to resolve the various issues of consequence that bedevil the era, and merely attempt at being descriptive and critical within the frame-work of acceptable political and social norms, and the Catholic dogma.
