ABALAHIN NO. 6 THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL Period for Preparation And Expedition To understand the Period for Preparation And Expedition To comprehend the literary works of Dr. Jose P. Rizal NO. 6 The Life and Works of Rizal Rizal’s timeless call to all patriots of past, present and future as a gauge of our own place and worth as Filipinos at this point in our history. It may be said that Rizal’s foremost mission in life had been determined for him by fate- and early in his life. That execution proved to be Rizal’s political epiphany, the beginning of his coming of age as a Filipino aware of being part of one nation. It was to culminate in full fruition at his death more than 20 years later, but by then a generation of his fellow natives had been molded, by his life’s work, into Filipinos with a sense of nation. Module 6 The generation into which Rizal was born was the generation that up till then produced the greatest of Filipino youth. It grew up in the worst and best of times, a time of upheaval, and revolution and sacrifice, the call to which Rizal and his fellow youth had unhesitatingly, and without looking back, answered. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLW R V. DISCUSSION Rizal and Marcelo H. del Pilar, a fellow Propagandist, stood out for their determination. Rizal was driven by one thing and one thing only: to serve the nation. he left his homeland for studies in Spain: “In my heart I have suppressed all loves, except that of my native land; in my mind I have erased all ideas which do not signify her progress; and my lips have forgotten the names of the native races in the Philippines in order not to say more than Filipinos.” Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLWR Module No.6 Rizal’s chief aim was to reform Philippine society, first by uncovering its ills second, by awakening the Filipino youth. His enemies were the oppressive colonial government, but especially the corrupt elements among the friars, members of the religious orders that exerted the greatest influence over the government and thereby held complete sway over the lives of the Filipinos. Rizal knew the best way to awaken the youth and lead them toward right action was through education, but especially foreign education. For local education, being controlled by the friars then kept the Filipinos in the dark, ignorant of their rights and heritage- and meek in the face of oppression. This was partly why he left for Spain in 1882, to continue his studies there. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLWR Module No.6 becoming the best person he could be. He waged his campaign among progressive members of the Cortes and Spanish intellectuals; he wrote letters and articles for La Solidaridad, the Propaganda mouthpiece, as well as other publications, producing some of his best work during this period such as “The Indolence of the Filipinos”; “Message to the Women of Malolos”, or “The Philippines a Century Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLWR Module No.6 Despite his deprivations, he continued to push himself to serve his nation’s cause finally producing his greatest work, the novels Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, works that paved his way to an untimely death but also to a lasting place in the hearts and minds of his compatriots. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLWR Module No.6 Of his vision for the Filipinos, Rizal wrote his comrade Mariano Ponce in 1888: “Let this be our only motto: For the welfare of the Native Land. mission, which is the formation of the Filipino nation”. To Rizal that nation was a nation free of injustice, oppression and corruption. May the Filipinos of today finally begin fulfilling this timeless challenge of Rizal.

It was the custom of the Filipino students there to hold reunions every other Sunday at the cafe, for their limited resources did not permit the daily visits which were the Spanish custom. he wrote home for a newly established Tagalog newspaper of Manila, his views of "Love of country," an article not so optimistic as most of his later writings. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL Module No.6 In Madrid a number of young Filipinos were intense enthusiasts over political agitation, and with the recklessness of youth, were careless of what they said or how they said it, so long as it brought no danger to them. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL Module No.6 His more mature mind put him out of sympathy with the younger men. Their admiration gave him great prestige, but his popularity did not arise from comradeship, as he had but very few intimates. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL Module No.6 The book, he writes in his diary, affected him powerfully, not to tears, but with a tremendous sympathy for the unfortunates that made him willing to risk everything in their behalf. It seemed to him that such a presentation of Philippine conditions would certainly arouse Spain, but his modesty forbade his saying that he was going to write a book like the French masterpiece, prepared of what was finally the novel "Noli Me Tangere." Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL Module No.6 At this time few Filipinos in Spain had joined the institution, and those were mostly men much more mature than himself. Thus he met leaders of Spanish national life who were men of state affairs and much more sedate, men with broader views and more settled opinions than the irresponsible class with whom his school companions were accustomed to associate Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL 6 Module No.5 In 1884 Rizal had begun his studies in English; he had been studying French during and since his voyage to Spain; Italian was acquired apparently at a time when the exposition of Genoa had attracted Spanish interest toward Italy, and largely through the reading of Italian translations of works which he knew in other languages. German, too, he had started to study, but had not advanced far with it. Thus Rizal was preparing himself for the travels through Europe was only by knowing the language of a country that it would be possible for him to study the people, see in what way they differed from his own, and find out which of their customs and what lessons from their history might be of advantage to the Filipinos. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLWR Module No.6 Rizal usually was present on public occasions in Filipino circles delivered the principal address at the banquet given by the Madrid Filipino colony in honor of their artist countrymen, after Luna and Hidalgo had won prizes in the Madrid National exposition. there he wrote the latter half of "Noli Me Tangere" The German influence, and absence from the Philippines for so long a time, had modified his early radical views, and the book had now become less an effort to arouse the Spanish sense of justice than a means of education for Filipinos by pointing out their shortcomings. a part of the credit for this changed point of view, brings out the fact that misgovernment may be due quite as much to the hypocrisy, servility and undeserving character of the people as it is to the corruption, tyranny and cruelty of the rulers. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLWR Module No.5 At this stage of Rizal’s Life, Rizal was Hispanized. The Jesuits’ way of teaching, of enforcing discipline as well as promoting a culture of learning inspired Rizal to great heights of achievement. Since the Jesuits also teach foreign literature, Rizal eventually became fascinated by stories and ideas from abroad, leading to a widening of perspectives and also an appreciation of foreign culture. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLWR Module No.6 The printer of "Noli Me Tangere" lived in a neighboring street, and, like most printers in Germany, worked for a very moderate compensation, so that the volume of over four hundred pages cost less than a fourth of what it would have done in England, or one half of what it would cost in economical Spain. Yet even at so modest a price, Rizal was delayed in the publication until one fortunate morning he received a visit from a countryman, Doctor Maximo Viola, who invited him to take a pedestrian trip. Doctor Viola was much interested and offered to use the money he had put aside for the trip to help pay the publisher. Subject Title: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF RIZAL GE9- TLW Module No.6 Ang Awit ni Maria Clara Song for Maria Clara By Jose P. Rizal Sweet the hours in the native country, where friendly shines the sun above! Life is the breeze that sweeps the meadows; tranquil is death; most tender, love. Warm kisses on the lips are playing as we awake to mother's face: the arms are seeking to embrace her, the eyes are smiling as they gaze. How sweet to die for the native country, where friendly shines the sun above! Death is the breeze for him who has no country, no mother, and no love!
