Literatute by Jeffrey Morcilla
The gorgeousness of literature is the man’s nature in writing different stories, poems, novels, fables, etc. that always create the world of literature. In every detail on a particular story or a form of writings it always gives a meaningful insight on the mind of individuals. It also gives hallucination to the reader to become addicted and the imaginative property of mind to portray different characters on the back of their heads. That’s what makes a literature a literature.
One example of literature under legend is the Legend of Mayon, it considerably a Bicol literature. Mostly bicolanos are familiar to “Daragang Magayon”, “Panangoron”, “Linog”, amd “Pagtuga” these different characters portray different attitude towards love and revenge. That’s why Bicol has a trademark of having Mount Mayon because it depicts the origin of Mount Mayon that located in Bicol region in terms of “fiction”.
My insight about Bicol Literature is somewhat serve as the foundation of every cultures that still on our current era value it. Just like the Legend of Mayon if there were no person who created that fiction about Daragang Magayon there will be no Bicol region that will be known to its unique description. I can also say that having a kind of Literature to a particular area in the Philippines makes them to become unique to other provinces. Another vital significant of having Bicol Literature is that through literature our region is become popular and well-known worldwide due to have these different stories, poem, myths, legends etc. that talks more on our beloved region. One example of it is the person who entitled as the “Great Poet” who is Mr. Louis Cabalquinto, one of his magnificent pieces is the Poem about on his “balwarte” which is “Magarao”. His poem has been read by a different people who are master in Literature somewhere in US, these artist admired Mr. Cabalquinto for being such a creative writer and in fact he is awarded for being outstanding person in the field of

    I love literature, because it shares the beauty of its language. Literature according to me is the most elegant medium of human expression. A medium so elegant, that it informs you not only about the characters being written about, but also about the writer, and indubitably yourself. Literature has the power to influence society, while simultaneously reflecting it. Hidden in the pages of fiction, is often a lot of knowledge about the real world.…

    Literature is one of the main ways people express themselves through. The stories being written serve to make the reader think and finish the book with having more knowledge than they did going in. Literature is full of messages that help the reader realize there’s more to this story and what the writer is trying to tell them. That the words written down are more than just what they say, they were deliberately put there by the writer trying to get the reader to understand.

The word can also be refers to anything “written with letters,” like David Damrosch points out in his book “refers first and foremost to poems, plays, and prose fiction—works of creative imagination written in heightened and pleasurable language” (Damrosch 6).

    Literature, from my perspective, is a way to get people to think. Literature can be used as a form of expressio, that humans can relate to. Authors of Literature can make the reader come to realizations that otherwise would not have been thought of. Greek plays depicted and explained their myths. What I like about literature is that it brings up ideas, questions and thoughts that you would never have experienced in the first place. It educates you in a sense. Some pieces of literature you might relate to, those that you don’t, they might educate you and bring you new ideas.…

    Literature is read by the masses as a way to satisfy the human nature for stories as their minds grow and gain more curiosity. Whether it be to escape into the realm that a books meaning can place someones mind in or to find interest in the relation a book can find and link, literature is read to satisfy a yearning of knowledge that may or may not be dormant to some.

Although he had always dreamt of being a good story teller just like the hired man who was a suspect on every crime he was paid for, the author still followed the dream of his father for him to become an engineer. During those times, the father’s argument that there is no money on becoming a writer may be true. Nevertheless, the author had done a great story of his past. Together on his experiences was a clear, narrative view of how rich the Philippine culture is. And maybe, if have not been an Engineer, he may not have the good stories to share which he had told in a way that the reader can imagine that he or she is also a part of the story.…
