Literary Society

LitSoc, or the Literary Society, is an organization founded for, but not limited to, the development of Literature Majors of the Ateneo. Our goal? To indulge everyone's thirst for Literature, and to make sure that along the way, everyone's not just learning, but having fun as well.

With the onset of different media nowadays, LitSoc obsesses itself in understanding and enjoying the different kinds of Literature present in our present day world; by Literature, we don't just mean books or plays, but also movies and shows andmusic, comic books and fandoms. 

Here, we hope to complement your interests in any of the particular fields by helping you undertake a critical understanding of what Literature has done to our culture, and even beyond that, how our culture has transformed what we have come to know as Literature. 

Regular Projects/Events
All year round, we hold events known as Powwows, which are themed gatherings in which we talk about specific facets of Literature, be it a kind of medium, genre, sub-genre, or even a specifc book or show. Some of the Powwows we had last year were on Avatar:The Last Airbender, the onset of Fandoms, Feminism in Science Fiction, Zombies, and even one on Apocalyptic Literature.

But the biggest LitSoc event, hands down, has got to be Hit Lit Night, where we gather people to hang out with us in a night of relaxation, where we can enjoy food and the open mic where people in and out of Ateneo brimming with talent showcase their art.
