Noli Me Tangere, written by Dr. Jose Rizal, is considered a significant literary work in Philippine history. The novel played a crucial role in the Philippine nationalist movement by highlighting the social injustices and abuses during the Spanish colonial period. It is often credited with inspiring the Philippine Revolution against Spanish rule and is regarded as one of the most important literary works in Filipino culture.
Young Juan Cris坦stomo Ibarra returns to the Philippines after 7 years of study in Europe. At a welcome party in his honor, Father D叩maso insults and slanders Ibarra over a past incident involving Ibarra's father. Ibarra later learns from Lieutenant Guevara that his father was falsely accused and imprisoned by Father D叩maso, dying in jail. Ibarra establishes a school rather than seek revenge.

The document provides summaries of Rizal's two novels, Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo. Noli Me Tangere tells the story of Juan Crisostomo Ibarra, who returns to the Philippines after studying abroad. He faces oppression from friars and is falsely accused of instigating an uprising. El Filibusterismo follows the character of Simoun, revealed to be Ibarra in disguise, as he plots to foment a revolution against Spanish rule through corruption and oppression. While the novels depict the injustices of Spanish colonial rule, scholars debate whether Rizal ultimately supported revolution or reform as the means for change.
The document discusses Jose Rizal's first return to the Philippines in 1887 after studying in Europe, where he practiced medicine and encountered controversy over his novel Noli Me Tangere. While the Governor-General was initially not troubled by the book, powerful Spanish clergy condemned it as heretical, impious, scandalous, anti-patriotic, and subversive, putting Rizal at risk of retaliation from colonial authorities. Rizal's return also saw him treat patients successfully as a doctor while generating income, but he faced growing conflict over the impact and interpretation of his writings.

school, since he believed that education
would pave the way to his country's

EPILOGUE

Philippines, Crisostomo Ibarra returns as
Simoun, a rich jeweler sporting a beard and
blue-tinted glasses, and a confidant of the
Captain-General. Abandoning
idealism, he becomes a
his
cynical
saboteur, seeking revenge against the Spanish
Philippine system responsible for his
misfortunes by plotting a revolution.
EL
FILIBUSTERISMO
46. Simoun insinuates himself into
Manila high society and
influences every decision of the
Captain-General to mismanage
the countrys affairs so that a
revolution will break out.
47. He cynically sides with
the
upper classes,
encouraging
them to commit abuses
against the masses to
encourage the latter to
revolt against the
oppressive Spanish colonial
regime.
48. This time, he does not attempt to
fight the authorities through legal
means, but through violent
revolution using the masses.
Simoun has reasons for instigating
a revolution. First is to rescue
Mar鱈a Clara from the convent and
second, to get rid of ills and evils
of Philippine society.

is

was digging near the grave
site for his buried
treasures.

in his planned
revolution against the

countrys condition will

Tiago after Mar鱈a Clara entered
the convent. WithCaptain Tiagos
help, Basilio was able to go
to Colegio de San Juan de
Letr叩n where, at first, he is
frowned upon by his peers and
teachers not only because of the
color of his skin but also because
of his shabby appearance.
53. Captain Tiagos confessor, Father
Irene is making Captain Tiagos
health worse by giving him opium
even as Basilio tries hard to prevent
Captain Tiago from smoking it. He
and other students want to establish
a Spanish language academy so that
they can learn to speak and write
Spanish despite the opposition from
the Dominican friars of the
54. With the help of a reluctant Father
Irene as their mediator and Don
Custodios decision, the academy
is established; however they will
only serve as caretakers of the
school not as the teachers. Dejected
and defeated, they hold a mock
celebration at a panciter鱈a while a
spy for the friars witnesses the
proceedings

contact with the bandit group of
Kabesang Tales,a former cabeza
de barangay who suffered
misfortunes at the hands of the
friars. Once a farmer owning a

and a cabeza de barangay
(barangay head), he was forced to
