Editing Katipunan (section)

===Written works===
During the Katipunan's existence, literature flourished through prominent writers of the Katipunan: [[Andrés Bonifacio]], [[Emilio Jacinto]] and [[Dr. Pío Valenzuela]]. Each of the three's works stirred patriotism and are aimed to spread the revolutionary thoughts and ideals of the society.<ref name="zaide 156"/>
* '''Bonifacio works'''. Probably one of the best works done inside the Katipunan was written by [[Andrés Bonifacio]], ''Pag-ibig sa Tinubuang Lupa'' (Love for the Homeland).<ref>In other sources, this was titled as ''Pag-ibig sa Tinubuang Bayan''. Both are translated into English as ''Love for the Homeland''.</ref> It is a poem of sincere patriotic sentiment. ''Pag-ibig'' was published in the January 1896 issue of ''[[#Kalayaan|Kalayaan]]'' by Bonifacio under his [[pen name]] ''Agapito Bagumbayan''. According to Manuel Artigas y Cuerva, the name ''Agapito Bagumbayan'' was a corruption of ''agap-ito, bagum-bayan'', which, if translated from Tagalog to English word by word, means "the new nation is here and ready".<ref name="andres docu">{{cite web|url=http://kasaysayan-kkk.info/docs.ab.pagibig.htm|title=Documents of the Katipunan: Andrés Bonifacio (attrib.)

The two available texts accessible reprinted through books is the one published by Jose P. Santos in 1935. The other one, with familiar discrepancies to Santos' print, was archived in the military annals of [[Madrid]].<ref name="andres docu"/>
: After Rizal's execution at [[Luneta Park|Bagumbayan]] on December 30, 1896, Bonifacio wrote the first Tagalog translation of the former's ''[[Mi último adiós]]'' (Final Farewell), in which he gave the name ''Pahimakas'' (Farewell). He also wrote the prose ''Katungkulang Gagawin ng mga Z. Ll. B.'' (Duties of the Sons of the People), that was never published because he believed that Jacinto's ''Kartilya'' was superior than his.<ref name="katungkulan">{{cite web |url=http://kasaysayan-kkk.info/docs.ab.katungkulang.htm |title=Documents of the Katipunan: Andrés Bonifacio: Katungkulang Gagawin ng mga Z.

* '''Jacinto works'''. [[Emilio Jacinto]] is considered as the ''Brains of the Katipunan'', later ''of the Revolution''. His poetical masterpiece, written in [[Laguna (province)|Laguna]] on October 8, 1897, was ''A la Patría'' (To My Fatherland), with an inspiring melody paralleled from Rizal's ''[[Mi último adiós]]''.<ref name="zaide 156">{{Harvnb|Zaide|1957|p=156}}</ref> He also wrote a touching [[ode]] entitled ''A mí Madre'' (To My Mother). His masterpiece in prose, the ''[[Kartilya ng Katipunan|Kartilya]]'' (Primer; see [[#Kartilya ng Katipunan|below]]), became the [[Bible]] of the Katipunan.<ref name="zaide 156"/> His other prose writing was ''Liwanag at Dilim'' (Light and Darkness), a series of articles on [[human right]]s, liberty, equality, labor, government, and love of country. His [[pen name]] was ''Dimas-Ilaw''.
* '''Valenzuela works'''. [[Dr. Pío Valenzuela]] was a [[medical doctor]] by profession. In 1896, during the first publication of ''Kalayaan'', Valenzuela assisted Bonifacio and Jacinto in editing the newspaper. He also wrote ''Catuiran?'' (Is it Fair?), which described the cruelties of the Spanish priest and civil guards of [[San Francisco del Monte]] (now in [[Quezon City]]) on a helpless village lieutenant.<ref name="Kalayaan: biz"/> He also collaborated with Bonifacio in writing the article ''Sa Mga Kababayan'' (To my Countrymen), an essay addressing the people of the Philippines. His [[pen name]] was ''Madlang-Away''.<ref name="zaide 156"/>
