Personal life

Lariosa was born in Tabionan, a mountainous area in San Fernando, Cebu on December 11, 1944, and grew up in the neighboring town of Panadtaran where his family settled after World War II.[2] He earned bachelor's degrees, a degree in law, and a degree in education major in English and history from Southwestern University.[1][3] He was married to Susan with whom he had eight children: Marguel, Jobaner, Rhudiza, Jarrel, Emily Rose, Pachel Baron, Rudyard James and Erna Sue.[4]

Career

A prolific writer, Lariosa wrote 300 poems, 140 stories, dramas, and novels. The first of two-volume folk epic entitled "Kalisub", considered the first epic written in Cebuano language, that he authored was serialized in

Sun Star Weekend, and Women's Journal.[5]

He was co-chairman and one of the founding members of Bathalad (Bathalanong Halad sa Dagang, Inc), a Cebuano literary writers group, and its predecessor, the ALBICALARIVI Poetry Group.

Sun Star Superbalita, a Cebuano tabloid, and authored a Cebuano language style book.[2][5] Aside from his writing career, he was a regional licensing chief of the National Food Authority.[7]

Lariosa died on August 20, 2019, from liver complications in Mandaue City. He was scheduled to appear in Mugna Creative Writing Center of Cebu Normal University on August 24, 2019, where he was expected to launch his first poetry book, "Bangaw sa Alimungaw". His family attended the book's launching in his stead.[2][8][9]

Impact

According to Hope Yu's critique on several of his writings, particularly the Palanca-award-winning short story "Bugti" (Exchange), "Lariosa shows that he comprehends nature to be a part of the human, as well as the cultural, and the social imagination as much as it is a physical entity to be experienced... By examining Lariosa's work, we see that he developed an environmental philosophy that sought to take on the destructive forms of human domination that affect the natural and social Cebuano landscape."[7]

Lariosa was recognized as the "Vanguard of Cebuano Literature" by the Cebu City government by virtue of Resolution No. 652 enacted in 2003.
