  • Jose Rizal By: Marilou Diaz Abaya Film Review First, This Movie Is
    Jose Rizal by: Marilou Diaz Abaya Film Review First, this movie is rated SPG. There are graphic depictions of violence and even torture. The opening few scenes depict some episodes from Rizal's novels. In one a Catholic priest rapes a Filipina. I guess I now know where the Mestizo (i.e., mixed blood) class came from in the Philippines. In the other scene a Catholic priest beats a child for alleged stealing. Strong thing, and it made me wonder how the Catholic Church could possibly retain any power in the country, if this is what the national hero thought about it. The movie tells the life story of Jose Rizal, the national hero of the Philippines. It covers his life from his childhood to his execution at the hands of the Spanish forces occupying the Philippines in the late 19th century. We are also thrown into the world of Rizal's novels (filmed in black and white), so we get a glimpse of how he viewed Filipino society under the Spanish heal. The movie introduces us to the life of subjugation of the Filipino people under the rule of the Spanish friars. From the execution of three Filipino priests in 1872 for alleged subversion to the harsh and unequal treatment of Filipino students in the schools, this film is a flashing indictment of Spanish colonial rule in the Philippines. We see scenes both from Rizal's actual life but also from his imagination The movie focuses on the condition of the society and also to the government at the time of the Spanish Colonization.

  • Questioning the Status of Rizal's Women in Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo
    Questioning the Status of Rizal's Women in Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo Paulette M. Coulter University of Guam Abstract To an arguable extent, the novels of José Maria Rizal are European novels of the Belle Epoque, despite their setting., and, as such, they reflect the attitude toward women current in Europe in that era. In his novels Rizal’s female characters appear more as stereotypes than archetypes in several broad categories: the good mother (Narcisa), the virgin (Maria Clara, Juli, possibly Paulita Gomez), the harridan (the commandant's wife), the social or religious fanatic (Doña Victorina and Doña Patroncino), for example. In nearly every case in the novels and in his "Letter to the Women of Malolos," however, the individual woman is an exaggeration of an already exaggerated conception of womanhood, with its origins in the work of the Spanish friars. To an arguable extent, the novels of José Maria Rizal are European novels of the Belle Epoque, the golden age at the end of nineteenth century in Europe although their setting is the Philippines, and, as a result, they reflect the attitude toward women current in Europe in that era. Rizal was influenced by both the French novelists Alexandre Dumas, père, and Émile Zola as well as by the European high culture of his time, and his novels rank with theirs in terms of the large numbers of characters, detailed descriptions of the minutiae of everyday life, and complexity of interrelationships of characters in carrying out the plot. Rizal's novels also reflect the ideas of his times on the status and development of women.

Castroverde Department of Romance Studies Duke University Date:_______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Stephanie Sieburth, Co-Supervisor ___________________________ Walter Mignolo, Co-Supervisor ___________________________ Fredric Jameson ___________________________ Richard Rosa An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Studies in the Graduate School of Duke University 2013 Copyright by Aaron C. Castroverde 2013 Abstract This dissertation is a preliminary attempt to define and theorize Spanish literature of the late nineteenth century from the perspective of the colonized. I take as my starting point the novels of the Filipino writer José Rizal: Noli me tángere and El filibusterismo. Although these novels are considered to be the foundational texts of the Philippine nation, I will instead focus on their relationship to Spain and the literature produced there around the same period. This analysis will be contrasted with a reading of Benito Pérez Galdós’s novel Doña Perfecta, which, as many critics have claimed, bears a resemblance to Rizal’s first novel. I will show how Galdós’s novel demonstrates a colonizing mentality despite being nominally about an internal Spanish conflict.

  • While Writing His Novel Noli Me Tangere, Jose Rizal Didn't Want to Alert His German Landlady to the Fact That He Had Been Skipping a Protracted Series of Meals
    "One only dies once, and if one does not die well, a good opportunity is lost and does not present itself again." - Jose Rizal, Philippine Nation Hero. While writing his novel Noli Me Tangere, Jose Rizal didn't want to alert his German landlady to the fact that he had been skipping a protracted series of meals. Rizal would conspicuously leave his apartment around lunch and dinnertime, then wander aimlessly through the streets of Heidelberg, often watching people in restaurants and bars devouring schnitzel, blutwurst and bratkartoffeln . When sufficient time had passed, Rizal would reappear in his apartment, giving his landlady the impression that the young Filipino medical student had gone out to eat. It was a frugality that was to become a curious hallmark of Rizal's biography, that and, of course, womanizing. In his brief life, Rizal courted multiple women: O Sei-San, Leonor Rivera, Segunda Katigbak, Consuelo Ortiga Y Rey, Leonor Valenzuela, Suzanne Jacoby, Tottie Beckett, Nelly Boustead, and his wife, Josephine Bracken. Though Rizal's amorous exploits elicit a misguided pride in his Filipino biographers, it's his frugality where they find real amusement, like the time he sent a letter to his sister saying he hadn't bathed in six months because baths in Europe were "terribly expensive." Rizal's reputation for frugality can be pardoned given that he devoted most of his money to the purchase of over 2,000 books, which included a Spanish translation of Lives of the Presidents of the United States, Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales (five of which he translated into Tagalog for his nieces and nephews), the complete works of Victor Hugo, and Florante at Laura by Francisco Balagtas.
