• C. Philippine Literature in English

• In a way, we can say that we can trace


the beginnings of Philippine literature
in English with the coming of the
Americans. For this purpose, we can
divide this period into three time
frames, namely:

The Period of Imitation (1910-1924)

• By 1919, the UP College Folio published the


literary compositions of the first Filipino writers
in English. They were the pioneers in short story
writing.

• They were then groping their way into imitating


American and British models which resulted in
a stilted, artificial and unnatural style, lacking
vitality and spontaneity.

The Period of Re-Orientation (1898-1910)

• English as a literary vehicle came with the


American occupation in August 13, 1898 and as
they say, a choice bestowed on us by history.
• By 1900, English came to be used as a medium of
instruction in the public schools. From the
American forces were recruited the first teachers
of English.
• By 1908, the primary and intermediate grades
were using English. It was also about this time
when UP, the forerunner in the use of English in
higher education, was founded.

Period of Self-Discovery and Growth (1925-1941)

• By this time, Filipino writers had acquired


the mastery of English writing. They now
confidently and competently wrote on a lot
of subjects although the old-time favorites of
love and youth persisted. They went into all
forms of writing like the novel and the drama.

• Poetry. Noteworthy names in this field ,they wrote in free
verse, in odes and sonnets and in other types. Poetry was
original, spontaneous, competently written and later,
incorporated social consciousness.

• Short Story (1925-1941) Poetry and short story flourished


during these times.

• Publications. The Philippine Free Press provided the first


incentives to Filipino writers in English by offering prizes to
worthwhile contribution. Other publication followed suit.

• The Drama.(1925-1941) Drama during this period did not


reach the heights attained by the novel or the short story.
