On the state of Pangasinan Literature
"Our literatures in Tagalog, Cebuano and Ilokano will continue developing as the writers in these languages become more facile with craft. Tagalog has truly become a national language. But the minor languages like Pampango, Zambal and Pangasinan will be poorer – there are no novels written in these languages now, and even their poetry is disappearing." -- F. Sionil José, from Filipino English: Literature as we think it (keynote lecture at the Conference on "Literatures in Englishes," National University of Singapore)

75th International PEN Congress ‘Words, words, nothing but words ... ?’
Linz, Austria
PEN members from across the globe will gather in Linz from 19 - 24 October for the 75th International PEN Congress, which this year includes the international launch of the Free the Word! festival of literature. Hosted by Austrian PEN, the programme will include workshops, debates and presentations focussing on the importance of words and literature, reading and writing, and the right to read and write, as means for social and cultural understanding and change. Guest participants will include Vice President of International PEN and eminent Russian writer, Andrei Bitov.
The theme of Congress, ‘Words, words, nothing but words ...?' embodies the essence of International PEN and its belief that the value and exchange of words gives insights into other worlds through shared stories and experiences. It also embodies the belief that dialogue and freedom of expression can encourage greater awareness of different perspectives, giving space for open conversation that may otherwise not occur. » more...

San Carlos cultural celebration on Pangasinan Day
SAN Carlos will celebrate Pangasinan Day on November 13, the 113th birth anniversary of the late Speaker Eugenio Perez, with a cultural program.
The celebration begins with a Holy Mass at the St. Dominic Parish at 7:00 a.m., followed by a flag-raising ceremony and wreath-laying at the bust of the Speaker at the city plaza which is named Speaker Eugenio Perez Memorial Amphitheater.
The program will be conducted purely in the Pangasinan language, including the national anthem, which will be sung by the choir of the Virgen Milagrosa University Foundation.
A variety of musical entertainment depicting the province's culture will be provided by the DepEd District 2 teachers, the Tambayo Cultural Group, the San Carlos College Drum and Bugle Corps, the Aniweng na Kawayan Group from Dagupan City courtesy of Dagupan City Vice Mayor Belen Fernandez, and the Perpetual Help University System from Malasiqui.
A member of the Perez Family is expected to address the gathering.
The Ulupan na Pansiasia'y Salitan Pangasinan will also hold its oath-taking for its officers. The group is headed by book author Mel Jovellanos of Pozorrubio. (CIO)
