Abstract

Tinatalakay sa papel na ito ang mga ideya ni Br. Andrew B. Gonzalez, FSC (1940–-2006) hinggil sa wika na lumitaw mula sa kalitatibong pagsusuri ng mga piling akdang kanyang isinulat. Maituturing si Gonzalez bilang isa sa mga nangungunang akademiko at tagapagtaguyod ng pagpaplanong pangwika sa Pilipinas sa kontemporaryong kontemporaryong panahon. Gamit ang kanyang kadalubhasaan sa sosyolingguwistika, naging produktibo si Gonzalez sa paglalathala ng mga pag-aaral hinggil sa wika-sa-edukasyon at intelektuwalisasyon ng wikang pambansa ng Pilipinas. Nahahati sa tatlong seksyon ang papel. Sa unang seksiyon, isinasalaysay ang maikling talambuhay ni Gonzalez mula sa kanyang kapanganakan hanggang pagpanaw. Sa ikalawang seksiyon, tinatalakay ang kanyang mga ideya hinggil sa wikang pambansa at wika ng sistemang pang-edukasyon. Sa ikatlong seksiyon, pinagninilayan ang katuturan ng mga ideya ni Gonzalez sa kontemporaryong kontemporaryong panahon. Sa ganang awtor, ang pamigaganaca (“paggunita” sa Kapampangan) kay Gonzalez at sa kanyang mga ideya ay makabuluhan sa kontemporaryong kontemporaryong panahon sapagkat maaari itong makapag-anyaya ng muling pagbisita at pagtatasa sa mga patakarang pangwika at pang-edukasyong ipinatupad at kasalukuyang pinapraktis sa Pilipinas. This paper discusses the ideas of Br. Andrew B. Gonzalez, FSC (1940–-2006) about language that emerged from a qualitative analysis of his selected writings. Gonzalez can be considered as one of the leading academicians and advocates of language planning in the Philippines in the contemporary period. Using his expertise in sociolinguistics, Gonzalez became productive in publishing studies on language-in-education and the intellectualization of the national language of the Philippines. The paper is divided into three sections. The first section narrates Gonzalez’s short biography from his birth until his death. The second section discusses his ideas about national language and the language of the educational system. The third section reflects on the significance of Gonzalez’s ideas in the contemporary period. For the author, remembering Gonzalez and his ideas is relevant in the contemporary period, for it can invite a revisitation and evaluation of the language and education policies that are implemented and currently being practiced in the Philippines.
