Philippine Literatures: Texts, Themes, Approaches by Augusto Antonio A. Aguila (Out of Print)

Out of print title

by Augusto Antonio A. Aguila, Joyce L. Arriola, John Jack G. Wigley

The theoretical grounding that introduces each unit provides a rich discussion and reflection springboard for the works included. The same thing is true with the discussion questions which are well planned to address crucial elements in the works. Because each unit usually crosses literary genres, there is an interesting variable strategy through which the theme is developed and articulated. The literary selections--which include the predictable and the canonical, as well as the unexpected and the new--have been carefully ad astutely chosen to reflect the wide geographical and linguistic origins of the work. Overall, the work is an interesting, focused, accessible representation of our Philippine literatures. -Jaime An Lim
