Abstract/Summary
This study examines Cirilo F. Bautista's Sunlight on Broken Stones, the last part of his epic trilogy entitled The Trilogy of Saint Lazarus, through formalist / close reading. Sunlight on Broken Stones is a re-writing of Filipino history, with the title itself serving as Bautista's thesis for his own vision. The poem is analyzed by means of looking into the dominant images (blood, worms, etc.) that inform Bautista's intervention of Filipino history.
