Philippine President Diosdado Macapagal named Agoncillo as a member of the National Historical Institute in 1963. He remained with the university until his retirement in 1977, chairing the Department of History from 1963 to 1969. In 1958, Agoncillo was invited to join the faculty of the Department of History of his alma mater, the University of the Philippines. He garnered acclaim for this book, as well as criticisms from more conservative historians discomforted by the work's nationalist, perhaps even Marxist bent. In 1956, he published his seminal work, Revolt of the Masses: The Story of Bonifacio and the Katipunan, a history of the 1896 Katipunan-led revolt against Spanish rule and its leader, Andres Bonifacio. He earned his living as a linguistic assistant at the Institute of National Language and as an instructor at the Far Eastern University and the Manuel L.
He was also an essayist and a poet.īorn in Lemery, Batangas, Agoncillio obtained a bachelor's degree in philosophy from the University of the Philippines in 1934 and a master's degree in the arts from the same university the following year. He and his contemporary Renato Constantino were among the first Filipino historians who earned renown for promoting a distinctly nationalist point of view of Filipino history (nationalist historiography). Agoncillo (Novem– January 14, 1985) was one of the pre-eminent Filipino historians of the 20th century.
