    THE JAPANESE

    PERIOD
    (1941- 1945)

    Presented by Group 2
    HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

    Between 1941-1945, Philippine Literature was interrupted


    in its development when the Philippines was again
    conquered by another foreign foreign country Japan.
    Philippine literature in English came to a halt. Except
    for the TRIBUNE and the PHILIPPINE REVIEW
    almost all newspapers in English were stopped by the
    Japanese.
    Juan Laya who used to write in English turned to
    Tagalog because of the strict prohibitions of the
    Japanese regarding any writing in English
    The weekly LIWAYWAY was placed under strict
    surveillance until it was managed by a Japanese named
    Ishiwara.
    A. TAGALOG POETRY DURING THE
    JAPANESE PERIOD
    THREE TYPES OF POEMS EMERGED DURING THIS PERIOD

    1. Haiku – a poem of free verse that the Japanese like. It was made up of 17 syllables divided
    into three lines. The first line had 5 syllables, the second, 7 syllables, and the third, five. The
    Haiku is allegorical in meaning, is short and covers a wide scope in meaning.
