    LITERATURE IN NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION (NCR)

    The NCR is a highly urbanized region in the country, where its total land area amounting to
    approximately 63.6 thousand hectares.

    Tagalog literature has been born, cradled, nourished and peaked into fruition in the provinces of
    Southern Luzon, Central Luzon and the present Metropolitan Manila or the National Capital Region.

    Literature in the National Capital Region (NCR) of various countries often reflects the diverse cultural
    and linguistic landscape of the region.
    The Cradle of Culture

    Tagalog region is the birthplace of a rich tradition of Philippine culture in language, politics, economy
    and literature. The oldest university in the Philippines, University of Sto. Tomas is located in Manila.
    The first printing press was established in Manila. This gave way to the publication of the first book,
    Doctrina Cristiana in xylography in 1593, written in Spanish and Tagalog versions.

    The bible was first translated into Tagalog in Barlaan and Josaphat in 1708 and 1712. The life of Christ
    in epic tradition known popularly today as Pasyon was written in Tagalog by various writers like Gaspar
    Aquino de Belen and Fr. Mariano Pilapil.
    The literary tradition in the Tagalog regions specially outstanding in the field of oral literature like
    bugtong(riddle), proverbs, native songs. These oral literatures are always in poetic forms, usually
    seven-syllabic rhymes, so Asian in form and perspective. Considering this rich and envigorating
    cultural matrix, it is not surprising that it is the Tagalog region that was destined to be the
    birthplace of historic men in Philippine politics, culture and literature that includes Francisco
    Balagtas Baltazar, Jose Rizal, Andres Bonifacio, Apolinario Mabini, Emilio Jacinto, Marcelo H. del
    Pilar, Jose P. Laurel, Claro M. Recto, Amado V. Hernandez, Lope K. Santos, Lazaro Francisco,
    Faustino Aguilar, Jose Corazon de Jesus, Alejandro Abadilla, Modesto de Castro. It is not
    noticeable that such men are not only man of history that played a great role in Philippine
    independence movement but men of letters as well.
