Carmina and Patch discover just how colorful a life Balagtas lived. They discuss how artfully Balagtas infused the spirit of resistance in his famous masterpiece, “Florante at Laura,” by including themes and characters that defied the times in which he lived. They also make several other important discoveries, including how an almost-forgotten memory in Carmina’s childhood was unearthed because of a verse in “Florante at Laura.”Learn more: COPING; Filipino Rap Debates City Life, Pro and Con, Mighty Magulang: Francisco Balagtas, Xiao Time: Francisco Balagtas, Bayaning Makata, "Florante at Laura" 1949 | Leopoldo Salcedo | Celia Flor, Florante at Laura by Animated Filipino Classics, "ANG LAKI SA LAYAW" (mula sa "Florante at Laura") ni Francisco Balagtas, 'Florante at Laura' by Ballet Manila Excerpts, The Four Revolts of Balagtas, Francisco Balagtas Birthday, and Francisco Balagtas.To support FilTrip, go to the PayPal page here.Visit https://filtrip.buzzsprout.com.
