INSTRUCTION/ DELIVERY: (60 minutes)

I. LITERARY CRITICISM

It is the “reasoned” consideration or analysis of literary texts and their themes or issues. It may also be an argument about a literary work, which will be proven
using the text and the culture or context the text was written in or for. There is one general agreement among critics, however, when it comes to any kind of
critique: it is to be “practical”. Criticism is meant to see what has not been seen before, to say what has not been said before, and to change what needs to be
changed.

II. FUNCTIONS OF LITERARY CRITICISM

There are many functions of literary criticism, and they vary depending on the text itself or the context where it is being performed. Literary criticism may be
the simple review of books that you often read online or in local newspapers, or a systematic theoretical discussion of a story’s impact on society.

Presentation of the different functions of literary criticism to life situations follows.

Literary Selections in Informal Essay

1. The Other Other: Towards a Post-colonial Poetics by Isagani R. Cruz

Reflect Upon: Do you feel “marginalized” or ignored by a community at times? What do you do when this happens to you?
2. Gabu by Carlos A. Amgeles
Reflect Upon: How does the concept of “othering” make you feel as a Filipino? Do you believe that Filipinos are being “othered” by Western countries?

III. WRITING A CRITICAL PAPER

Literary criticism does not solely look at a text to see if it has a message to say to the reader and whether this message is good or bad. It also does not always
have to delve into religious or nationalistic interpretations it can be anything about the literary text on hand, as long as it is within the text.

Parts of a Critical Essay:

1. Introduction
It could start with an anecdote, quotation from the literary text. The idea is to hook your readers so that they will be more willing to listen to your idea.

2. Body
Discuss the relation of your idea with the literary text. The body is critical in your analysis.

3. Conclusion
Summarize what is in the body in two to three sentences. You may also conclude by referencing your introduction and suggest future research projects for
your reader.
