LESSON 2: COMPARE AND CONTRAST VARIOUS 21ST CENTURY GENRES FROM EARLIER
GENRES/PERIOD
The desire for self-expression resulted to the production of literature. It is a writer’s expression
of his mind, heart, emotions, thoughts, and ideas.
Literature is written works like poetry, novels, journals of famous authors and usually published.
‘Genre’ literally means ‘type”, so literary genre means types of literary works.
On this part of the lesson, you will recall and differentiate the four major literary genres; poetry,
fiction, nonfiction and drama; however, literature changes to adapt to the trends of the contemporary
world; thus, new genres of literature are born. In this lesson, we will study and appreciate both the earlier
genres and the contemporary genres.
Literature reinvents itself as it changes its form to adapt to the changing times and changing
trends; especially for the young people like you. The need to express oneself gave birth to literature and
humanity never got contented on their attempt to express themselves resulting to new genres like
hyperpoetry, mobile textula, flash fiction, chick lit, and, blogs.
Each literature genre has distinct sub-genres, structure and elements. Study the table below:
9
Nonfiction (factual biography, plot, characters, Written in paragraphs
stories, with real references theme setting, point-
characters and (encyclopedia, of-view, literary
setting) dictionary, devices
thesaurus),
autobiography,
narrative (memoir,
testimonio), and
periodicals
(newspapers,
magazines, journal
that are written
regularly)
The given genres with their elements and structures are further discussed in detail below:
A. Poetry
Poetry is one of the earliest genres of literature. It was either recited or sang back to prehistoric times
to call for help from a deity, narrate a hero’s life and victories, tell about the love story of their rulers, or
describe someone who inspires them. In order to understand or even write a good poem, you must know
the elements of poetry:
1. Rhyme – it is the identical rhyme if the last words or sounds match each other.
alliteration: followed, flats, front
bother, back
picked, slimy
2. Meter – it is also called the rhythm in poetry. It is the pattern of beats (foot) (stressed and unstressed
syllables in a line). It is also called foot.
10
There are four basic rhythms in poetry:
2.1 Iamb -unstressed / stressed (buh BUH) buh BUH/ buh BUH
Today, / we live /
11
Synedoche Personification Hyperbole
A part is made to represent Giving human attributes to an It exaggerates the meaning of
the whole or vice-versa object or animal a sentence.
Ex. Hundred heads of cattle Ex. The wind spoke of hope and Ex. I am so thirsty that I could
bought at a good price. redemption. drink an ocean.
Symbols
It is the use of symbols to convey ideas. A symbol represents various ideas or things at one time.
Like darkness or color black may symbolize death, uncertainty, failure, or an end. A white rose
may mean purity, freshness, new beginning, or death.
To appreciate and write a good poem, it is also essential to know its structure. Poems are written
in lines that comprise a stanza. Thus, each type of poem differs from each other because of its structure.
On the next page is a sample of a free-verse poem which the author used symbols and imagery to convey
his thoughts and feeling.

The given poem is free-verse and unmetered. It has no rhythm but it uses alliteration, assonance,
repetition, and symbolism.
- an ungrateful person
- someone passive
- someone who has a very colorful life
- an experienced person
- a person who picks up someone else’s trash
words/ lines used repeatedly: - sea, moon, parrotfish
B. Fiction:
Fiction is a story of make believe. It is a story made by the author’s creative imagination. It has
various sub-genres like mystery, fantasy, suspense, historical fiction science fiction, realistic fiction and
folklore (myths, fables, legends).
14
To understand fiction and to write a good fictional story, you must be able to identify and
understand its elements that comprise the texts’ contents and message the story wanted to impart to its
readers.
Now, you will read a legend that tells how a great lake was formed. It was retold by one of the
writer’s former senior high school student who lived in a village near Lake Sebu.
Located in South Cotabato, Lake Sebu is considered as the “Summer Capital of Southern
Mindanao” because of the cool weather and uphill location of the town. It is the home of the T’boli, a
tribe famously called as “Dreamweavers” because of their colorful bead works and hand-woven cloth
called T’nalak.
(A T’boli Folktale)
From that day on, the village was covered with water. The eleven islets became the home of
the locals.
Fiction uses the basic elements of a story, namely; the plot, setting, characters, and conflict, to convey
its ideas.
Fiction follows the Freytag’s Pyramid to create an interesting and detailed narrative. Below is
an illustration of the story pyramid which consists also the parts of a plot.
climax
rising action
falling action
exposition denouement
15
The following are the elements of short story according to Freytag:
1. Exposition tells about the background of the story. The information can be about the setting,
characters’ back stories, or historical contexts.
2. Rising action is the part of the story after the characters and setting are introduced and events in the
story begin to reveal probable conflicts that the protagonist must resolve. It also involves events that
lead to the climax of the story.
3. Climax is the highest point of tension in the story. It is usually the most interesting part.
4. Falling action is the part of a story after the climax and before the very end.
5. The denouement is the final outcome of the story and it is where other secrets are revealed, if there
is any.
The setting includes the time or period and place where the event happened. The characters are
the persons/ animals/ or any inanimate object that functions as the protagonist, antagonist and other
minor entities that perform the actions, speak dialogue and moving the story along a plot line.
Conflict creates tension in the story and it involves the struggle of between two opposing forces/
characters, usually the protagonist and the antagonist.
Conflict can be internal and external. Internal conflict is a psychological conflict which arises
when the character experiences two opposite emotions (like love and hate, patriotism and devotion) or
aspirations (like career and marriage, fame and peace of mind) which usually involves good and evil.
External conflict is the struggle of a protagonist against outside forces that hamper his/ her
progress and hinders him/her to achieve his/ her goal.
Nonfiction is a literary genre that tells about stories that actually happen in real life. The sub genres of
literary nonfiction are biography, memoir, autobiography, journals, diaries, periodicals and references.
These works of literary nonfiction have character, setting, plot, conflict, figurative language, and theme
just like literary fiction, fiction and thriller or suspense. To interpret fiction, we must analyze and interpret
using the elements of fiction.
The story below was a personal account of the author about his ordinary encounter with a
Champorado vendor which made him realized how lucky he was.
Another Universe
He was about my age and about my size. He first approached us while we were eating at a cottage
at a spring resort.
“Champorado mo, Ma’am. Sir”, he said. “Init pa.”
Champorado. Chocolate porridge. Still hot.
I declined.
16
I watched him as he went on his way, selling champorado in a small pot to other resort- goers.
He might have more customers if only he has better container than peddle an iron pot.
Then there he was again, walking on top of the wall that separates the water into smaller pools.
“Champorado, Champorado. Init pa,” he shouted, hoping someone would buy his hot champorado.
I asked my girlfriend.
From the water, I watched him as he peddled his pot. I noticed that it was not only small, it was
also blackened by soot; he must’ve used it over open fire frequently. We kept swimming until twilight.
The people began to thin down; but he kept on peddling his champorado.
I let my girlfriend change her clothes first while I sat on a circular bench nearby. I noticed a guy,
looking so miserable, sitting next to me. On his side, on the bench, was the small, sooty pot. He must be
the champorado vendor. I figured. On his other hand was a slipper. I saw that the front strap broke.
I watched as he tried reattaching the broken strap. Unconsciously, I followed him with my eyes
as he softly placed his slipper on the ground. He tried wearing it, but it immediately broke again. Then I
noticed something- he was wearing two different footwear. On his left foot is a slide slipper, the one
athletes commonly wear, while on the other foot, the one that broke, is a traditional flip-flops.
I wanted to help him - maybe give him some money to buy a new pair of slippers. But money, I
have none too plenty, I might need it on the way home. Give him my old pair of shoes? I can’t drive my
motorcycle bare-footed. I might get caught by the traffic enforcers. I saw plenty of slippers repaired by
sticking a wire through the rubber to hold it down. The least I can do is to help him fix his slipper, but the
resort is too dark to find any wire that might be laying on the ground.
After a while, he went inside the changing room, carrying his pot on one hand, and his slipper on
the other. He also had a backpack, I concluded that he might have carried his utensils there.
17
I was left alone. Trapped in another universe.
He was about my age and about my size. We could’ve been similar in many ways; he might also
be the eldest, he might also have four siblings. He might also want to plunge into the cold, spring water.
I liked to ask him questions: Where he lives, was the champorado sold out, what happened to his slippers
and what he would do next.
But the biggest question was for myself: would I do the same if circumstances dictate me so?
My girlfriend finished changing. It was already my turn. He still didn’t come out.
I tried to take my mind off of him while I change into dry clothes. It bothered me why it took so
long inside the changing room. Was he able to fix his slipper? I had no way of knowing. When I got out,
out of the dusk, at a distance, I saw the vendor. He had backpack to be exact., there was a little light to
see him clearly. He was sort of walking with a drag. I just hoped he gets home safe and sound. It was
already dark when we were ready to leave. The frogs already began their chorus. To me, it sounded like
a woeful dirge.
Study the table below to check on the elements of Non-fiction used in the memoir, “Another Universe”:
Plot (Synopsis) 1. A young man was trying to help a champorado vendor, yet, he
could not do anything because he only had enough money for
him to go home.
Characters and
Characterization
Main Character/s: 4. the author
Other Characters: 5. author’s girlfriend
6. Champorado vendor
18
Symbols Used 11. sooty pot – it was used to symbolize the life and future of the
vendor. It may be dark and sooty but inside is a satisfying meal
for a hungry soul. He is poor but his dreams of a better life could
lead him far.
12. water- represents the need to cleanse himself from guilt of
not helping the vendor.
13. universe- it symbolizes the author’s conscience. He tries to
think of ways to help the vendor.
- it may also be the different worlds where the
vendor and the author dwells. The author is a student supported
by his parents while the vendor, as old as the author, peddled
champorado to support himself and family.
Important Lines/ Dialogue 14. I wanted to jump into the cold again- to wash my guilt
away.
Other Literary Device Cited 15. Repetition - sooty pot was repeatedly mentioned to give
emphasis to the vendor’s plight as someone from a very poor
family.
D. Drama
A script may only come to existence once it is performed before an audience. Its basic elements
include the literary element (script), technical element (scenery set, make-up, costume, lights, and sound)
performance element (acting, character analysis, character motivation…)
A script is a written text of a play. It is consisting of the dialogues or words that will be spoken
by the actors and the stage directions which give instructions about the position and movement of the
actors and other aspects of the set.
The technical element of a play is complicated. It includes scenery set, make-up, costume, lights,
and sound.
A scenery set can be chair, a house or a forest and other properties used to identify the location
and period of the dramatic production. Make-up is used in drama to aid the actors in taking the
appropriate appearance of the character they play. Costumes are clothes, garments or attires worn by
actors on stage to aid dramatic actions and interpretations. There various types of lights used on stage.
It provides not only visibility of the actors but also creates and enhance the mood and atmosphere. Sound
can be produced by actors or by props, musical instruments, and recorded music and effects that can
help engage the audience and bring them into another time.
Performance element includes acting, character analysis and character motivation. Acting is the
enactment of an actor or actress who portrays a character, character analysis is evaluating the
character’s traits, his/ her role in the story, and the conflicts they experience, character motivation is the
element that drives the character to achieve his goal.
That is how complicated a drama is! It is more complicated than other genres of literature
because aside from the script, other elements must suit and work together to the theme of the show and
19
make the audience feel the plight of the protagonist, antagonist and other characters in the story
effectively.
Below is an excerpt from the script of a one-act play which is included in the literary element.
(Beat. Howell goes out. Mila continues boxing things. Her cell phone rings. Its ringing tone is an ordinary
one taken from her bag. She answers the call.)
Mila: Hello? Yes, Dad… No, were still boxing ma’am Mendoza’s things… Yes, but Val texted he’s still
caught in the traffic. An hour more, maybe … No, Benjie is not with me. He’s still in the lab … He can’t
force organometallics to catalyse even if it’s for his thesis … No, don’t wait for us. You have to take your
medicine by seven. Eat your dinner now … Don’t start with your fish bone story. You haven’t had a fish
bone pulled from your throat since Benjie was born … No, Val won’t join us for dinner. It’s a three-hour
drive He has to start back home after he gets his mother’s stuff … I don’t know about Howell… Now, stop
with your excuses, Dad we’ll have meat once your arteries are de-clogged … Of course I won’t bend.
I don’t care if you hate fish. It’s what’s good for you now. And I already told Manang to spy on you. So
don’t you dare go out to have meat. (Laughs a little) She’ll drag you back to the house with all the might
of her sumo wrestler weight … Dad, dad, listen. You know I have to keep you alive ‘til we visit Mabel and
Marnie at Texas next year. We’ll take Benjie with us then show them where they were all convinced …
(Laughs a little) Now don’t be coy, Dad. Come on. Have fish for dinner, take your medicines, I’ll be home
in an hour. Bye, Dad.
(Mila terminates the call, returns her cell phone to her bag. She tries to carry the filing cabinet. She gives
up after two attempts. Them, she starts pushing it. Howell enters.)
20
Howell: But do you know how much I pay for just to keep her alive?
Mila: You’re not the only one who has –
Howell: Where will I get the money when I lose job?
The various genres of literature and its sub-genres changes through time. The invention of electricity,
use of electronics and other modern technology affected how people view life and express themselves
differently from their contemporaries 10 years, 20 years, or a hundred years ago.
Technology made our lives easier than the last decade. It made people work fast. Beating deadlines and
presenting marketing and management strategies creatively. These changes have also brought new
literary genres that gave us new avenues of expressing ourselves; like cell phones and computer screens.
These new genres include mobile textula, hyperpoetry, flash fiction, chick lit and blogs.
To understand these new genres, their definitions are given below to give you clue on how similar
or different they are from the major genres of literature.
1. Hyperpoetry- It is poetry uploaded in the internet. Its medium is the computer screen.
2. Mobile Textula - It is a short poetry in a form of tanaga, that is sent through SMS on mobile
phone. It consists of 4 lines with 7 syllables using (/) to end a line and (//) to end the stanza.
From: MaryelKate
Mamamaya’y balisa /
Gobyerno’y aligaga /
Salut na karamdaman /
Hinde nalulunasan //
3. Flash Fiction – It is telling a story in a few words, usually about 100-1000 words or less. A flash
fiction can be as short as Earnest Hemingway’s 6-word memoir, “For sale: baby’s shoes; never
worn.”
21
The example below was written by former student to express a person’s many facets as an
individual:
They have known him as a weakling and a loser. He never said a word or done
a thing to defend himself or speak what was on his mind.
Ten years have passed and here I am waiting for my son’s return from Manila. There he is…
accomplished, full-fledged doctor, and a hero of the COVID-19 Pandemic.

4. Chick Lit - It is a heroine-centered fiction narrative; usually focus on the trials of the protagonist.
Below is an excerpt of a chick lit taken from Wattpad. One needs to download the Wattpad App
and the story to experience reading chick lit.
It was a wonderful day because it is our 4th wedding anniversary. We took a day off to celebrate
it. I woke up at 2:30 in the morning to cook and to prepare a little surprise. He usually surprises me but
this time I wanted him start and enjoy the day differently.
When I was done cooking, I cleaned our living room. I set a table for two with wine at the center
and partially covered the floor with petals.
When I set it all up I texted him.
“Hon, let us go downstairs. Don't forget to wear white, I love it when you wear white. I said with
a smile.
“Okay, I'll be there in a minute.” He texted back.
I put down the mobile phone and waited for him. I turned on the CD player with our favorite song,
“I’ll Be” by Edwin McCain.
I was wearing a white jumper suit and as the song started to play, a handsome man in white shirt
and pants walked down the stairs.
“Happy 4th anniversary, Hon.” I said as I came close to him and hugged him tight.
“Hon, you surprised me. Thank you and I love you.” He said smiling at me.
22
5. Blog - a regularly updated web page or website that is written in conversational style.
Here is a sample blog uploaded on March 15, 2020 on the author’s Facebook page.
