Page 1 of 21 PALANCA CEBUANO SHORT STORY WINNERS AND THE DEFINITION AND THE PRODUCTION OF CEBUANO LITERATURE Rolando S. Salvana Lit730P Introduction Two factors spurred the writing of this paper. First, there was Dr. J. Neill C. Garcia's comment on the lament of regional writers as to how "their own contemporaries and 'peers,' as it were – seem less and less inclined to read their works" (1). And, second, there was the fifteen- year old history of regional writing in the Don Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature. Dr. Garcia's remark struck this researcher as, indeed, lamentably true. This researcher considers himself a Cebuano writer and yet, except for the Cebuano Bible and prayer books, has not read a Cebuano short story in the past seven years. He, moreover, realizes that while he regards himself as a Cebuano writer, he knows only a few Cebuano writers outside of Cebu City. Thus, when presented with the challenge of writing a paper that shall contribute to the subject of literary history, this researcher thought of looking into Cebuano Literature, in particular, Cebuano writers of fiction. The Don Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature, on the other hand, struck this researcher as a rich source of possibilities as regards Cebuano Literature, in particular, Cebuano Fiction. In 1997, the Palanca Awards introduced a division on regional languages, namely: Cebuano, Hiligaynon and Iluko with a Short Story Category. And, to this researcher's attention, no study on Cebuano fiction nor on Cebuano writers of fiction in the Palanca Awards in its fifteen-year old regional languages division has been done. Hence, this researcher thought that to know other Cebuano writers of fiction and to eventually read their literary works studying the list of winners in the Cebuano Short Story Category of the Palanca Awards, from 1997 to 2011, would be a good place to start....
