    Who is Santiago Alvarez? How come his writing is a primary source?

    Santiago Alvarez is a revolutionary and a Philippine independence military from Imus Cavite. He is one of the most notable
    heroes during the war of independence against the Spaniards. His writing “Katipunan and the Revolution: Memoirs of a
    General” is considered a primary source since Santiago himself witnessed the story described in his writing. He personally
    experienced the events that transpired during the said controversial convention at Tejeros.

    Who is Teodoro Agoncillo? How come his writing is a secondary source?

    Teodoro Agoncillo, on the other hand, is a notable 20th century Filipino historian, poet, and author. His writing “The Revolt
    of the Masses, the story of Bonifacio and the Katipunan” from the 12th chapter of his book “Seeds of Discontent” was
    considered a secondary source since he does not have any personal affiliation to the people in the convention. His account
    was based on his own researches and personal interpretation. He does not witness nor experienced the events that
    transpired during the assembly.

    Santiago Alvarez’ Teodoro Agoncillo’s “The Revolt of the Masses, the


    “Memoirs of a General” story of Bonifacio and the Katipunan”

    Santiago stated that the convention was held on the Teodoro, on the other hand, stated that it was
    25th of March year 1897. Aguinaldo’s birthday when the assembly convened at

    Form your internal and external criticisms over the two sources

    For authenticity and credibility my main argue would be on the side of the primary source. The author himself personally
    experienced the events that transpired during the said convention. He was an active participant and his decision are
    counted in the said assembly. Unlike the secondary source, he was not just a historian trying to recollect what happened
    that time by researches and personal interpretation. He saw what transpired before his eyes. He is in position to know the
    credibility and the authenticity of his writings. I strongly believe that him being in that position is enough as corroborating
    evidence for both the source credibility and authenticity.
