What is a literary genre?
It is a category of literary composition.
Genres may be determined by literary
technique, tone, content, or even (as in
the case of fiction) length.
They are defined by the general cultural
movement of the historical period in
which they were composed.
What is referred to as the earlier period?
This period is referred to as the pre-
colonial period or the period long before
the Spaniards set foot on the Philippine
islands.
Most of ancient Philippine literature was
really oral consisting of folk narratives,
riddles, proverbs, sayings, songs, ritual
chants, and epics and was definitely
community-bound.
