Philippine Epics and Ballads Archives
This multimedia archive has been undertaken by Nicole Revel, Directeur de recherche au CNRS, within the “Integral Study of Silk Roads: Roads of Dialogue“, a Program of the Decade for Cultural Development, Unesco (1991-2001).
During more than ten years the sung narratives have been recorded and videotaped during the performance, then transcribed and translated in collaboration with the singers of tales, scholars and local knowledgeable persons among 15 National Communities where this verbal art is still alive today.
This program was supported by 39 grants of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of France.
Since 2001, the various documents have been digitized at the CNRS in Paris and Ateneo de Manila University.
This archive (34 printed volumes, 7.521p. in 2011) is now housed at the Rizal Library, Pardo de Tavera special collections of Ateneo, Quezon City.
A copy is being safeguarded at the Départment audiovisuel, Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF), in Paris.
This website was built thanks to the vision of Ateneo's President, Father Bienvenido Nebres S.J.
Since January 2011, it is accessible and monitored here.
