    Philippines. He cooperated with the U.S. during the Spanish-American War
    but subsequently broke with the U.S. and led a guerrilla campaign against
    U.S. authorities during the Philippine-American War. To put it simply, it's
    about the life of Emilio Aguinaldo and how he fought for our country in the
    past. and also The book Katipunan and the Revolution: Memoirs of a General
    tells the story of the Katipunan from Alvarez's personal observations and

    3 purpose and significance

    The purpose of the Mga Gunita ng Himagsikan is for us to know how Emilio
    Aguinaldo led the Filipino revolutionaries engaged in battle with the
    Spaniards, which were important events in Philippine history. And also, The
    Mga Gunita ng Himagsikan, Emilio Aguinaldo's book, is regarded as
    significant to the grand narrative of Philippine history since it not only
    contains Emilio Aguinaldo's memoirs but also historical facts about our
    forefathers.

    4 Content Presentation
    Mga Gunita ng Himagsikan is the memoir of Emilio Aguinaldo, written
    based on a diary he kept, several documents he preserved, and family lore he
    gathered from his elders.

    Aguinaldo’s memoir includes accounts beginning from his birth, his early
    life, and his participation in the revolution. However, the first volume ends
    the memoir only with the details of the Treaty in Biak-na-Bato. Although its
    existence is still not proven, the second volume is assumed to continue with
    the Philippine Revolution against Spain and the Philippine-American War.
    The provided excerpts begin the memoir with Aguinaldo’s arrival to Cavite
    and his encounter with two of his generals which led to the confrontation of
    the three Filipino civil guards patrolling their territory. This is followed by a
    narrative of the Siege of Imus, where they have been cheated at first yet was
    able to make a successful attack after regrouping and changing tactics. The
    last of the three excerpts is the longest and tackles several events in the
    revolution. First, it recorded the arrival of Supremo Bonifacio and some of
    his men in San Francisco de Malabon where he was welcomed with a
    wonderful parade and regarded as the “Haring Bayan.” It continued with
    Aguinaldo discussing notable differences between the Magdiwang and the
    Magdalo factions of the Katipunan, including the party name, members and
    officials, territories, achievements, attitude, and form of government. It also
    provided the planned attempt to rescue Jose Rizal from his execution, which
    could have been performed if not only for Paciano Rizal’s intervention and
    warning not to risk any more lives. It ended with the account of the Battle of
    Pateros which initially was a victory after they caused the retreat of the
    Spanish troops by the Pasig River but then was forced to go back to Cavite
    when a bigger army of Spaniards from Laguna came to attack the province.

    history, since it does not only contain the memoirs of Emilio Aguinaldo but
    also contains historical information about our ancestors, it shows how the

    freedom. The document, Mga gunita ng himagsikan, would also give the

    gunitang himagsikan.

    6 RELEVANCE TO THE CONTEMPORARY TIMES (Mga Gunita sa


    Himagsikan)

    Through Mga Gunita sa Himagsikan, we can visualize or know how the


    Filipinos fought for the freedom of our country. The freedom that we are
    experiencing today was the major factor that affected our lives today. Our
    country needs to be saved from the colonizers, and because of the brave
    Filipinos who fought for our rights, we gained our freedom from the
    Spaniards. The Filipinos were enlightened that they were the ones who
    should rule their own country and not be slaves to the colonizers. Even
    though the Philippines was colonized again by other countries after the
    Spaniards, the Filipinos still managed to fight against them. The Mga Gunita
    sa Himagsikan shows the determination of the Filipinos to get the freedom
    that they deserved that the Spaniards took away from them. This
    determination resulted in them gaining what they were fighting for. In
    addition, this determination of the Filipinos back then shows that we can
    reallyachieve something if we are determined and will do everything for it,
    which also applies in today's setting. Their hard work and sacrifices yielded
    the freedom of our country from the Spanish colonizers. Today's freedom that
    Filipinos enjoy is due to their fellow Filipinos who fought for it.Sadly, that
    freedom is being abused and neglected in today's setting, which

    It shouldn't happen. Being free in your own country is a great privilege, and
    that freedom should not be taken away again by another country.

    The memoirs of Emilio Aguinaldo (Gunita ng Himagsikan) revealed a lot of


    untold stories behind Philippine history. It gives the readers a prior
    knowledge of the specific events that happened during the colonization of the
    Spanish and Americans. That's why the understanding we give to his persona
    becomes relevant in knowing what kind of a Filipino leader he was. We were
    able to view history through the eyes of Aguinaldo, which led us to a better
    appreciation of his heroism and efforts that were important to the freedom we
    enjoy today. Finally, the most significant achievement of Aguinaldo's
    Dictatorial Government was the proclamation of Philippine Independence in
    Kawit, Cavite, on June 12, 1898. The day was declared a national holiday.
    Thousands of people from the provinces gathered in Kawit to witness the
    historic event.
