Summary: Writing the Nation/Pag-akda ng Bansa gathers into a single volume scattered writings on Philippine art and culture by Buenvenido Lumbera. The cultural phenomena that generated comment and discussion-literary works, theatrical performances, films, conferences, book-launches, etc.-have been viewed within a framework spelled out by the first two sections of the book: "Culture and Politics" and "Language and Culture." Lumbera has always made culture and nationalism the advocacy of his teaching and writing, and in this book he elaborates on these intertwining themes. Intended for a broad audience of teachers, students and assorted cultural workers, his essays, whether in English or Filipino, address the audience in a language fairly accessible to many.
