A. What are your impressions about the undelivered speech?

The speech gives the impression of being a letter explaining the real reasons for the decision to return to his job even knowing that the most possible destination is execution.

But not only this, it is also a speech that brings courage and comfort to freedom fighters. It shows the sacrifice that one is willing to make when freedoms are stolen from the people. And this sacrifice is a push for those who are in their country fighting or thinking of fighting.



B. What kind of document is it (letter, ed, newspaper, etc.)?

It is a letter, which has the traits of being a farewell statement.



C. Is there a specific date on the speech? If so, when is it? If there is none, are there clues that might indicate when it was written?

At the top of the letter is the date. August 21, 1983



D. Is there an indicated location? Where is it?

The letter was written in the United States. Country from where he returned to the Philippines.



E. Who authored the document? Why did you say so?

Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr. It is a letter written in the first person. Where he in person gives his statement. Even though his name is not mentioned in the document after a little research on the same website where the letter is found, it can be assumed that he wrote it



F. To whom was the written document addressed? How did you know?

The letter is written for his fellow Filipinos. Those who were in the middle of a fight for freedom, to get out of a dictatorial regime. In this document he explains to his compatriots the reasons for his return and the terms that he considers important for a reconciliation of his country.



G. What is the purpose of the document? What made you think so?

Motivate your compatriots to fight for freedom and the end of the Philippine dictatorship. Unite them and leave a path of ideals to achieve freedom. Make it clear that even with his death, his greatest desire is to regain freedom for his country.

The way the letter is written, making it clear that freedom is more valuable than your life. Also the way he uses his possible death as an impulse to unite the people with a single final goal. That is why I believe that his purpose with the document was the unification and motivation



H. What do you think is the most important information that the author of the document was conveying? Why?

The most important thing for me are the terms that he considers essential to get out of the dictatorship. The previous is historical information that the people could already know. But E×ρréššing their ideas for the country verbatim and that these can reach the masses is very important.



I. Does the document convey a certain tone? What is it?

Different tones are perceived in the document. Although we could say that the main tone is one of motivation to fight, of union. There is also a tone of peace with yourself, acceptance of the destiny that awaits you.



J. What does it imply?

The motivating and revolutionary tone of the letter implies a call to the struggle and the union of the Filipino people. It also implies that the author accepts his sacrifice, for him, a low price compared to the reward of freedom.



K. What is the point of view of the author? Is it objective? Why?

Point of view is completely subjective. It is written from his person, giving a personal point of view of the situation and the destiny that awaits his country.



L. What is the relationship between the writer and the audience? Explain.

They are from the same country. In addition, the letter is mainly addressed to people who share your point of view or political inclination



M. Integrate your background knowledge of the context of the speech with the content of the speech. What conclusions can you draw about the historical period when the speech was written?

By the time the letter was written, the Philippine dictatorship had been in power for years. During the first years this dictatorship was disguised as a democracy thanks to the holding of elections that left the president himself in charge. Then, by means of a martial law that eliminated the votes and oppressed the people with violence and murders, it became a totalitarian autocracy with all power centralized in the dictator and his wife.

These were truly moments of anguish and depression for Filipinos. The economy was at a low point and the country's wealth was in the hands of a few. While most of the town suffered from hunger and need.

Social repression was very great and freedoms were almost non-existent. All this through the use of military force.

The day this letter was written, the author was assassinated by the government, at the airport where he landed when he returned from exile. The martial execution was carried out publicly at the airport terminal.

Three years later, the dictatorship falls thanks to the efforts of the revolution.
