    Unit Three

    LITERATURE DURING THE MIDDLE


    PERIOD (1930 - 1960)
    The Middle Period was a time of self-discovery and of rapid growth and writers called it as the
    Period of Emergence.

    QUALITIES:
    1. The writers consciously and purposefully set out to create a national literature. They proclaim
    that our writers should reflect the Filipino way of life, our traditional values as Filipinos and
    even utilize the tropical vegetation of the islands as appropriate background for their stories
    and poems.
    2. The writers had gained full control of the English language and could manipulate it
    successfully as literary medium.
    3. Experimentation with different literary forms, technique and moods was the fashion.
    4. Three groups of writers emerged: (a) those who were deeply concerned with social
    consciousness, (b) those whose main concern was craftsmanship and (c) those who were
    determined to explore the local color. “VERONICANS” aimed at making their writings bear the
    imprint of the face of Christ.
