life and works of

rizal
 introduction
 The topic is geared towards an understanding on the greatness of Jose Rizal's character, the richness of his
thoughts and teachings which are his legacies to humanity, and the inspiring examples which are his gifts to
his people and perennial motivations for them to write to nobility.
 This also presents a new perspective on Rizal's true worth to the Philippines as the exponent of its national
identity.
 In order for us to understand Rizal we would first need to explore his role in his time and the contributions
he had done.
 Other portions of this book are collections of some of his literary works and various correspondences

 THE TRIALS OF THE RIZAL BILL

 REPUBLIC ACT 1425 –Known as the Rizal bill, proposed in the house of the
representative senate bill no. 438 authored by Claro m. Recto.
 On April 17 1956, senator Jose P Laurel as a chairman on the committee on
Education began his sponsorship of the measures of the rumbles of the gathering
storm sounded an ominous warning .
 According to Laurel(1960),”Noli Me Tangere and El Fili. Must be read by all
Filipinos , They must taken to heart , for in the pages we see ourselves as a mirror ,
our defects as well as our strength , our virtues as well as our vices,
✣ Only then would become conscious as a people and so learn to prepare ourselves
for painful sacrifices that ultimately lead to sel-reliance , self-respect and freedom.
 However, faithful Catholics looked at the measure as an attempt to discredit their
religion.
 They find the Noli. and el fili. As containing views inimical to the tenets of their
faith.
 They particularly challenged the compulsory nature of the bill as violative of
religious freedom.
 The catholic elements would insist that it should not be a compulsory reading for
the novels of Jose Rizal
 They would not want their students to be demoralized

✣ On the allegation of Rizal being a pro-Spanish, it was beacause of the alleged
advice to the Katipunan during the visit of Pio Valenzuela, a doctor and member of
the Katipunan.
✣ These instance's in Rizal's life are not exclusive considerations but only due to
limited references.
✣ It is important to put into mind that a hero is a human being.
