Philippine literature has been in existence as long as the Philippines themselves have been. People have always told stories, and once a written language evolved, they were written down. The Philippines are no exception.
The first book published in the Philippines is "Doctrina Christiana", written in Spanish and Tagalog in 1593. It was a religious text that contained basic Catholic prayers and beliefs, aimed at converting Filipinos to Christianity during the Spanish colonial period.
"Doctrina Christiana En Lengua Espanola y Tagala" was the first book published nor printed in Philippines, It was published in Manila in 1593 by the Dominican Friars

OLDEST BOOK PRINTED IN THE PHILIPPINES PRESENTED AT LIBRARY OF CONGRESS
09 JUNE 2009 Washington DC - Mr. Daniel De Simone, curator of the Rosenwald Collection of the Library of Congress' presents the Doctrina Christiana Asian Reading Room following a lecture on the significance of the book and its history. In his lecture, Filipino librarian and Phd candidate at the University of Toronto Von Totanes posited that Doctrina Christiana, printed in 1593 "is actually one of two published during that year in the archipelago." Totanes argued that the importance of the imprints "lies in the fact that they are physical reminders of the plurality of the nature and culture of the Filipino and the Philippines, and that Filipino culture is what it is today because of contact with the Chinese, the Spanish and the Americans." The lecture was co-sponsored by the Embassy of the Philippines, Library of Congress Asian Division Friends Society and the Library of Congress Asian American Association and is part of a month-long series of activities held to commemorate the 111th anniversary of Philippine Independence.
