PHILIPPINE LITERATURE IN ENGLISH (1941-1945)
Because of the strict prohibitions imposed by the Japanese in
the writing and publishing of works in English, Philippine
literature in English experienced a dark period. For the first
twenty years, many books were published both in Filipino
and in English.
In the New Filipino Literature, Philippine literature in
Tagalog was revived during this period. Most themes in the
writings dealt with Japanese brutalities, the poverty of life
under the Japanese government, and the brave guerilla
exploits.

demanded a change in the government. It was
manifested in the bloody demonstrations and the
sidewalk expressions and also in literature.
