4. Contemporary Colonial Era

Between 1941-1945, Philippine Literature was interrupted in its development when the
Philippines were again conquered by another 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.

FILIPINO POETRY DURING THIS PERIOD


The common theme of most poems during the Japanese occupation was nationalism,
country, love, and life in the barrios, faith, religion and the arts.

Three types of poems emerged during this period.


Haiku Butterflies are cool

ang pangarap na punyagi.
