sample of their literary piece.

José Corazón de Jesús, also known by his pen name “Huseng Batute” was a
Filipino poet who used Tagalog poetry to express the Filipinos' desire for independence
during the American occupation of the Philippines, a period that lasted from 1901 to
1946.
He is best known for being the lyricist of the Filipino song Bayan Ko. Buhay
Huseng Batute was born on November 22, 1896 in Santa Cruz, Manila to Vicente de
Jesús, the first health bureau director of the American occupation government, and
Susana Pangilinan of Pampanga. He was christened José Cecilio de Jesus but he later
dropped Cecilio and replaced it with the Spanish name Corazon (heart) because he said
it best described his character.

VIRGILIO ALMARIO

books of poetry, which include the seminal Makinasyon and Peregrinasyon,
and the landmark trilogy Doktrinang Anakpawis, Mga Retrato at Rekwerdo

CLODUALDO DEL MUNDO
Comics in the Philippines (Filipino: Komiks) are widespread and popular

throughout the country from the 1920s to the present. Komiks were partially
inspired by American mainstream comic strips and comic books during the early
20th century. Particularly after World War II, the medium became widely
popular, though its mainstream appeal has subsided somewhat with the advent
of other mass-media forms such as telenovelas. Webcomics produced by
independent Filipino web-based artists have caught the attention of local and
foreign readers.
Sample Works:
 1947: Ali Mudin (Liwaway)
 1948: Prinsipe Paris (Pilipino Komiks)
 1948-1949: Prinsipe Adonis (Pilipino Komiks)
 1949: Mahiwagang Kastilyo (Paruparo)
 1949: Ang Ulilang Anghel (Paruparo)
 1949: Prinsesa Basahan (Paruparo)
 1949: Prinsipe Binggo (Pilipino Komiks)
 1950: Buhay ng mga Poon (Tagalog Klasiks)

ROLANDO TINIO
Rolando S. Tinio, playwright, thespian, poet, teacher, critic, and translator

marked his career with prolific artistic productions. Tinio’s chief distinction is as a stage
director whose original insights into the scripts he handled brought forth productions
notable for their visual impact and intellectual cogency.
Subsequently, after staging productions for the Ateneo Experimental Theater (its
organizer and administrator as well), he took on Teatro Pilipino. It was to Teatro
Pilipino which he left a considerable amount of work reviving traditional Filipino
drama by re-staging old theater forms like the sarswela and opening a treasure-house
of contemporary Western drama. It was the excellence and beauty of his practice that
claimed for theater a place among the arts in the Philippines in the 1960s.
Sample Works:
 Sitsit sa Kuliglig" (Whistling at Cicadas) or (Shusshing Cicadas)
 "Dunung-Dunungan" (Pedantry)
