A. Spoliarium – Juan Luna

"The Spoliarium" is perhaps the most iconic painting by a Filipino. In 1884, the Filipino
painter, Juan Luna, earned the gold medal at the Exposicion de Bellas Artes in Madrid
for this painting. It is a recreation of Roman circus, where dead gladiators are being
dragged off the arena.
Analysis – Let’s Analyze
In your own point of view, what message does the painter wants to
portray from the painting?

USING SOURCES
- source is anything that has been left behind by the past. It might be a
document, but it might alternatively be a building or a picture or a piece of
ephemera – a train ticket perhaps or a plastic cup. They are called
'sources' because they provide us with information which can add to the
sum of our knowledge of the past.
- History as the subject of study is more or less at the mercy of the sources.
The past can neither easily be observed directly nor can it be recalled.
Historians get their information from two different kinds of sources:
primary and secondary. Primary sources are first hand sources;
secondary sources are second-hand sources.
TYPES OF SOURCES
PRIMARY SOURCES
- A primary source is a document or physical object which was written or

created during the time under study. These sources were present during
an experience or time period and offer an inside view of a particular event.
Primary sources give us first hand, you-are-there insights into the past.
They are also the most important tools an historian has for developing an
understanding of an event. Primary sources serve as the evidence an
historian uses in developing an interpretation and in building an argument
to support that interpretation.
- Primary sources provide a window into the past—unfiltered access to the

record of artistic, social, scientific and political thought and achievement
during the specific period under study, produced by people who lived
during that period. Bringing young people into close contact with these
unique, often profoundly personal, documents and objects can give them
a very real sense of what it was like to be alive during a long-past era.
EXAMPLES OF PRIMARY SOURCES
 ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS: Diaries, speeches, manuscripts, letters, interviews,

news film footage, autobiographies, official records
 CREATIVE WORKS: Poetry, drama, novels, music, art
 RELICS OR ARTIFACTS: Pottery, furniture, clothing, buildings
SECONDARY SOURCES:
- A secondary source is a document or recording that relates or discusses

information originally presented elsewhere. Secondary sources involve
generalization, analysis, synthesis, interpretation, or evaluation of the
original information.
Examples:
 PUBLICATIONS: Textbooks, magazine articles, histories, criticisms,

commentaries, encyclopaedias
IMPORTANCE OF USING SOURCES
1. Engage students
- Primary sources help students relate in a personal way to events of the

past and promote a deeper understanding of history as a series of human
events. Because primary sources are snippets of history, they encourage
students to seek additional evidence through research. First-person
accounts of events helps make them more real, fostering active reading
and response.
2. Develop critical thinking skills
- In analyzing sources, students move from concrete observations and facts

to questioning and making inferences about the materials. Questions of
creator bias, purpose, and point of view may challenge students’
assumptions.
3. Construct knowledge
- Inquiry into sources encourages students to wrestle with contradictions

and compare multiple sources that represent differing points of view,
confronting the complexity of the past. Students construct knowledge as
they form reasoned conclusions, base their conclusions on evidence, and
connect sources to the context in which they were created, synthesizing
information from multiple sources. Integrating what they glean from
comparing sources with what they already know, and what they learn from
research, allows students to construct content knowledge and deepen
understanding.
4. First hand Knowledge:

- Primary sources provides first-hand knowledge to the students. It helps
students to understand the events in history.
5. To consider different points of view in analysis:

- In analyzing primary sources, students move from concrete observations
and facts to inferences about the materials. “Point of view” is one of the most
important inferences that can be drawn.
6. To understand the continuum of history:

- Students come to understand that we all participate in making history
every day, leaving behind primary source documentation hence may
examine as a record of “the past.” The immediacy of first-person accounts
of events is compelling to most students.
7. To acquire empathy for the human condition:
- Primary sources help students relate personally to events of the past,
gaining a deeper understanding of history as a series of human even
Application – Let’s Apply
Differentiate between primary sources and secondary sources.
