Fernando Maramag's Moonlight on Manila Bay describes the Philippines ('the scene so fair') as a picturesque country before the intrusion of America ("bold Olympia').
Fernando Maramag's Moonlight on Manila Bay was published in 1912. It describes the Philippines ('the scene so fair') as a picturesque country before the intrusion of America ("bold Olympia').
The sonnet Moonlight of Manila Bay is about the way the Philippines looked before the American intrusion. It was written by Fernando M. Maramag.
It is about Manila Bay Battle 1898. Manila Bay then was a serene place. The ambiance of the bay was so peaceful that one could see the reflection of the moonlight on the water. The water was placid, the place was unharmed and the people were untroubled. They were living a passive life then. In this poem, Maramag is expressing what he felt during war.
Fernando M. Maramag became an editor of The Manila Tribune and was one of the most brilliant writers in English during his time. He was born on January 21, 1893 at Ilagan, Isabela. He was educated in Isabela highschool, Philipine Normal School, and University of the Philippines. The Rural Maid was one of his earlier poems.
In the poem "Moonlight of Manila Bay" by Fernando Manarag, the phrase "here bold Olympia one historic night" likely refers to the USS Olympia, a historic American naval ship. The poem may be highlighting a significant event that took place involving the USS Olympia in Manila Bay, symbolizing a turning point towards freedom for the people. The use of "presaging freedom claimed a people's care" suggests that the event foreshadowed or predicted the eventual liberation or protection of the people's interests. Overall, the poem seems to celebrate a momentous occasion in history that marked a shift towards freedom and care for the people of Manila Bay.
