N2  - With this book designed with both you and student in mind, the author hopes your teaching for appreciation will be more focused- for appreciation and not for literary criticism. There are marked distinctions between appreciation and criticism. And this is the guiding principle in the design/ layout of this book.Therefore, rather than have students do extensive research on backgrounding of the literatures/ genres/ authors, some brief but relevant introductory pieces are provided. For your purposes, how ever, as teacher/ mentor/ guide, you are the one expected to have more extensive knowledge on the literatures of the Philippines the regions, the native traditions, beliefs, values, and what have you that make literature the way it is. (Maria Clara V. Ravina, Ph.D.)
