IV. LEARNING ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET No. 3 Name: ___________________ Date: __________________ Section: ____________________ Score: _________________ Subject: Ethics Let’s check your progress. LESSON 3 A. Answer the following questions as precisely yet as thorough as possible 1. What do you think are the reasons of the coming of the Spaniards to the East? I think the reason is to trade some spices in the Spice Islands. 2. Why do you think Magellan befriended the natives? Because it’s his tactics for him to be easily be trusted by the natives and make them do what he wanted them to do without questioning it. He wants to spread his religion to the natives by converting them into Christians and that would be easy if they earn their trust and befriends with them. 3. What was the rile of Christianity in the relationship of Magellan’s troop and the natives? Magellan arrived in Homonhon and befriended the chieftains of Limasawa. They then introduced Magellan to Rajah Humabon, the Rajah of Cebu, who was later baptized into Catholicism alongside his wife. In spite of the warm hospitality that Magellan received from the chieftains he met, Lapu-Lapu strongly opposed Humabon’s orders, resisted the religion being introduced, and was against Spanish domination. This led to the battle between the two leaders. Magellan and his army fought against Lapu-Lapu and his native warriors. Most accounts say Lapu-Lapu killed Magellan during the battle while others say Magellan simply retreated and his Spanish captains killed him. But one thing’s for sure – Filipinos see Magellan as the villain and Lapu-Lapu is seen as one of the early heroes who bravely fought against Spanish conquest. B.

Of the Knights of Rhodes 237 sailors who departed from Seville, An italian seafarer and geographer eighteen returned on the Victoria. Pigafetta had managed to survive, along with his journal—notes that detailed the discovery of the western route to the Moluccas. And along the way, new land, new peoples: on the far side of the Pacific, the fleet had stumbled across the Marianas archipelago, and some three hundred leagues further west, the Philippines. Context Connections The First Voyage Around The World by Antonio Pigafetta was written on board one of the 5 ships that was first to circumnavigate the world during an expedition that was led by the Portuguese explorer, Ferdinand Magellan and after his death during the voyage, by Juan Sebastián Elcano. I know Ferdinand Magellan or simply, Magellan as the explorer sent by Spain who failed to colonize the area ruled by Chief LapuLapu. Not until I’ve read the account of Atonio Pigafetta about the first voyage around the world of Ferdinand Magellan and have a detailed understandings about what happened in the history. Communication Conclusion The First Voyage around the World is also a remarkably accurate ethnographic and geographical account of the circumnavigation, and one that has earned its reputation among modern historiographers and students of the early contacts between Europe and the East Indies. Expertly presented and handsomely illustrated, this edition of Pigafetta's classic travelogue is sure to enlighten new readers and invigorate the imagination as the story has done since it first appeared. In conclusion, the work of Antonio Pigafetta useful in the history of Philippines and more for the use of entire world. His own narration about the first world circumnavigation was one of the greatest achievements in the history of navy exploration and discovery. In this narration can be found descriptions of peoples, countries, goods and even the languages that were spoken, of which the seafarer was trying to assemble some brief glossaries. It also tells the discovery of the Philippines as an Island and how Magellan and his troops circumnavigate the globe, and their braving on the dangerous oceans for 3 years. Furthermore, it's not a mystery why Magellan is a famous explorer and how he converted the natives of the Philippines to Christians. IV.

Content Citations Set in Seville, Andalusia in 1519, Juan Sebastián Elcano is a young and irresponsible man who wants to live as a captain of his little boat, but due to debts he has with the city's bank, the bank manager confiscates Elcano's boat and orders the guards to arrest him as a defaulter. As he tries to avoid imprisonment, Elcano enlists as part of an expedition of five ships commanded by Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan, nicknamed "The Navigator", in order to arrive in the Molu Islands ccas to get spices, very valuable to the ruling Kingdom of Castile. Portuguese ambassador Álvaro da Costa plots to make the journey a failure since the Moluccas Islands belong to the Kingdom of Portugal, and hires Yago as spy and saboteur to prevent the journey's success. Unaware of it, Magellan completes the crew of the five ships: the Trinidad, the San Antonio, the Concepción, the Santiago, and the Victoria; and starts the journey. Elcano, hoping to have his own ship, works as a helmsman for Captain Juan de Cartagena, who despises him and is suspicious about Magellan, taking him as a traitor who secretly works for Portugal. At the same time that Yago makes some sabotages, Cartagena conspires with the other captains to get Magellan's secret map to navigate by unknown lands. But after Magellan died after a battle with natives of the Saint Lazarus islands, Elcano is promoted by the crew as the new leader of the trip. Traveling to the west following the sun and determined to fulfill the mission, Elcano finds himself fighting against not only Yago and da Costa, but time and starvation to make history and give the first trip around the world. Elcano & Magellan: The First Voyage Around the World (Spanish: Elcano y Magallanes. La primera vuelta al mundo) is a 2019 Spanish computer-animated adventure film directed by Ángel Alonso and written by José Antonio Vitoria and Garbiñe Losana. The film retells the story of 1519 circumnavigation led by Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan and Spanish navigator Juan Sebastián Elcano. Context Since the film was created in 2019 and was released in Spain on July 5, during the 500th anniversary of the expedition. The world is more different from 500 years ago. What was the film depicted as is the animated remake of the first voyage of Magellan around the world. Connections Before watching the film I already read the book of Antionio Pigafteta which is The first voyage around the world of Magellan. The film and the writings of Pigafetta is quite similar as the film is merely based on the writings of Pigafetta. The film was controversial in the Philippines for its inaccurate portrayal of the Filipino natives, especially Lapulapu, who led the Battle of Mactan that killed Magellan. At the 34th Goya Awards, it earned a nomination for Best Animated Film. Communication Conclusion Since the film is based on the writings of Antonio Pegafetta it has some knowledgeable details about the voyage happened 500 years ago but there are some additional characters and events that maybe the writer and the director of the film added to make the film more interesting to the viewers. The film contributes to history as commemoration of the expedition 500 years ago.
