    Study Notes

    Retraction of Jose Rizal

    • Rizal allegedly reverted to Catholicism and married Josephine Bracken.
    • Pro-retractionists claimed this was true, while anti-retractionists deemed it a deception.
    • Key figures involved in the controversy included: Rafael Palma (opposed by the Church), Romberto Poulo (believed Rizal's beliefs changed), Fr. Balaguer (claimed to receive the retraction), Fr. Antonio Obach (alleged Rizal wrote a retraction then took it back), and Ricardo Pascual Ph.D. (believed the retraction to be a forgery).
    • Arguments against the retraction's authenticity included the document's secrecy (found decades later), lack of marriage certification for Rizal and Bracken, inevitable execution regardless of retraction, and Rizal's actions/letters showing nationalism rather than submission.

    The Cry of Balintawak

    • There's debate on the precise date (August 20-26, 1896).
    • Various locations are also disputed (Balintawak, Pugad Lawin, Kangkong, Bahay Toro, and Pasong Tamo).
    • Different accounts exist, with key versions including: Pio Valenzuela's (August 23, 1896) of meetings in Kangkong, followed by Pugad Lawin; Teodoro Plata's opposition to the revolution; descriptions of Katipuneros tearing cedulas, shouting for the Philippines; Gregoria de Jesus's account (August 25, 1896), placing the cry near Caloocan with Bonifacio leading the Katipuneros to the hills; Santiago Alvarez's account (August 24, 1896) focusing on Melchora Aquino's barn; and Guillermo Masangkay's version (August 26, 1896), showing Bonifacio leading the revolt at Balintawak with opposing viewpoints.
