"The Philippine Islands, 1493-1898, Volume 42, 1670-1700" by Emma Helen Blair et al. is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the ecclesiastical controversies, commercial conditions, and socio-political dynamics in the Philippines during the late 17th century, primarily focusing on the period from 1670 to 1700. It covers significant events, particularly the conflicts involving religious orders and the archbishop of Manila, providing insights into the intersecting realms of governance, religion, and society during a transformative era. The opening of the volume introduces the context of intense ecclesiastical struggles, notably the Camacho controversy, which illustrates the friction between the archbishop's authority and various religious orders. The text outlines the complications arising from the archbishop's attempts to impose his visitation on regular clergy and the resulting pushback from the religious orders, highlighting key players like Archbishop Diego Camacho, various members of the orders, and the local government. This intricate dynamic sets the stage for deeper exploration into the political and religious tensions that characterized the life in the Philippine Islands at that time, revealing the complexities of colonial governance and religious practice.
