This special issue of The Cordillera Review presents the posthumous publication of a work on Kalinga mythology written by Jules De Raedt, former professor of anthropology at the University of the Philippines Baguio, who passed away in December 2004, after a lingering illness. Although Prof. De Raedt worked intermittently on the manuscript during those years when he was no longer in the best of health, we can easily surmise from the manuscript that this project began to take shape at a much earlier time, when the author embarked on a long and sustained reflection on Cordillera culture and society after doing field work in Kalinga in the 1960s.
