SUMMARY AND REVIEW

“El Filibusterismo”

Crisostomo Ibarra is back and as Simoun. During the period in between the story line of Noli Me
Tangere and El Filibusterismo which is 13 years, Ibarra left the Philippines and became a
wealthy jeweler. He came back to the Philippines as Senor Simoun, disguised with a beard. He
seems to have long abandoned his once vision of ending the despotism of Spain with words and
peace. He becomes hungry for vengeance for all the misfortune our country has suffered under
the tyranny of the Spaniards. And near the end of the novel, when he discovers that his lover,
Maria Clara, died in the convent, he becomes all the more furious. Simoun is a confidant of the
Captain-General. He encourages the government to make bad decisions and to abuse their power
so that it would spark a revolution among the masses. Basilio, now all grown up, is at first
reluctant to join in on Simoun’s idea but ends up being part of the plan. Simoun started planning
uprisings and stashed guns in the shop of an ally. At the wedding reception of newlyweds (the
bride being the ex-girlfriend of one of the friends of Basillo—Isagani), Simoun tells Basilio that
his plan was to conceal an explosive which contains nitroglycerin inside a pomegranate-styled
Kerosene lamp that Simoun will give to the newlyweds as a gift during the wedding reception.
The reception will take place at the former home of the late Captain Tiago, which was now filled
with explosives planted by Simoun. According to Simoun, the lamp will stay lighted for only 20
minutes before it flickers; if someone attempts to turn the wick, it will explode and kill everyone
—important members of civil society and the Church hierarchy—inside the house. Simoun
leaves the reception early and leaves a note with the words: “Mene Thecel Phares” which means
“the future is predetermined” and is generally implied that a bad event is going to happen.
Simoun signed it with his real name “Juan Crisostomo Ibarra”. The people at the reception were
shocked because Ibarra is supposedly dead. One of the priests who knew Ibarra before the ending
of Noli Me Tangere confirmed to the people that it was the writing of Ibarra. The lamp started to
dim… Outside the house, Basilio was about to walk away because he knew the lamp was going
to explode anytime soon when he saw Isagani, the still heart-broken ex-boyfriend of the bride
whose reception was still going on in the house of Capitan Tiago. Isagani said that he just wanted
to congratulate the newly-weds. Basilio who then feared for the safety of his friend told him
about the plan of Simoun. Isagani ran to the house. A priest was about to fix the lamp but once
Isagani got in, he found the lamp and threw it out the window into the river outside the residence.
Since the guards were chasing Isagani, he himself jumped out of the window into the river as
well. There was an uprising planned by Simoun during the time of the reception. The band got
caught and confessed that Simoun lead them. Ibarra was now wanted both as himself and as
Simoun. Days passed and a good priest found Simoun walking along the shore, wounded and
weak. The noble priest tended to Simoun while the latter explained that he is Ibarra and that he
was greatly saddened and angry due to the failure of the revolution and that he was questioning
God as to why he was the one who is suffering and not the ones who have forsaken the people of
the Philippines. The priest explains that all punishments will come in due time. Ibarra died as he
weakly held the hand of the priest. The latter blessed the former and threw away all the
remaining jewels of Ibarra in the hopes that they may always be used for good.
Review/Reflection: Everyone agrees on the fact that El Filibusterismo is far more dark and brutal
that Noli Me Tangere. With many events of murder, sexual abuse and suicide, El Filibusterismo
is a massive turning point not only for the plot but also for the characters. Crisostomo Ibarra
really did grow as a character in this book. He is obviously not the idealistic and open man he
was once before. He became vengeful, angry and in somewhat way, cunning. And in my opinion,
this transformation of his is very much human and real. After everything he went through in Noli
Me Tangere, it seems only fitting that he becomes the man who is Simoun. I believe that when
Ibarra went under alias Simoun, he did not just strip himself of his birth name but he stripped
himself of all of what was left of Juan Crisostomo Ibarra. The way I see it, is that Ibarra is not
Simoun and Simoun is not Ibarra. They may share the same face, but if we are not speaking
about physical attributes, then the only thing they truly did have in common was love for the dear
Maria Clara. But besides that, they do not share the same mind, the same plans, the same soul,
the same heart. In terms of moral lesson, El Filibusterismo is what I’d choose over Noli Me
Tangere. El Filibusterismo showed us how anger and vengeance can take over a person’s being. I
also find very much delight in the conversation between Ibarra and Father Florentino: As Ibarra
asked on his death bed, “But how come He [God] had not punished those who’s evil surpasses
mine?” The priest said, “Do not blame him, His [God’s] punishments are meted out all in their
due time!” We all want to do well. We all want to be righteous people who choose what is right
over.
What is wrong? But it is just so tiring being the good person. So sometimes, when misfortune
comes our way, we just find ourselves asking the heavens: “Why, oh why me, God?! Have I not
done enough well? Aren’t there others who deserve this more?” But like what Father Florentino
said, all punishments for all people will come when the time is right. Being a good person is
rewarding. Not entirely in the sense of blessings but in the sense that you know that you did what
is good and your heart just feels ever so light. This is the stage that Ibarra underwent in the first
book. But in the second book, he was just so tired that he ended up being a person who he most
likely, never wanted to be. At the end of the book, I believe he ended up being the man we
started with. He seemed to have no anger, he seemed to be in a state of peace. I believe that
doing your best to never tire in doing well is one of the central themes of the book. El
Filibusterismo also shares the theme that ‘violence is not the answer’ with Noli Me Tangere.
Simoun’s grand plan thwarted. When he asked Father Florentino about this, the friar answered
with, “Perhaps He [God] saw there was no justice in the way you wanted it done.” If you don’t
remember, the way Simoun ‘wanted it done’ was by blowing up the house of the late Capitan
Tiago which had many Spaniards with important positions in said house with dynamite. It
doesn’t seem to have justice after all. Somebody may counter this thought with “But the
Spaniards were abusive!” but when you think of it, would we really want to stoop down to that
level of violence and rage? I think not. El Filibusterismo is an exciting and raw book and I do
plan on reading it again soon.
 SUMMARY AND REVIEW
“Noli Me Tangere”
Noli Me Tangere, by Dr. Jose Rizal, starts off at the house of the wealthy man Capitan Tiago.
Here we find Padre Damaso speaking ill-y of Filipinos. A few moments later, the story‟s
protagonist makes his first appearance. He is Crisostomo Ibarra, a rich young man who has just
returned from Europe after 7 years of studying there. He is the son of the late Don Rafael Ibarra,
whose death is later revealed to be because of him protecting a young Filipino boy from a
Spanish tax collector. Padre Damaso, being an adversary of Don Ibarra, starts to both indirectly
and directly insult Crisostomo. Ibarra, instead of retorting, excuses himself and says that he has
business matters to attend to. In the following days, Ibarra talks to his sweetheart Maria Clara--
daughter of Capitan Tiago, and tries to visit his father‟s grave. And to Ibarra‟s shock, the place
where his father‟s body should be seems to have been recently dug up. He talks to a gravedigger
to find out that a fat friar asked that the body be transferred to a Chinese cemetery. Who could
this friar be? Yes, you‟ve got it right, Padre Damaso. But only to add insult to the injury, Ibarra
finds out the corpse was thrown in to the lake because there was a storm on the supposed day of
transfer. On the other hand, a whole other story was taking place. The story of Sisa, Basilio and
Crispin. The two were accused of being thieves. Basilio was locked up in the church by the
Sacristan-Mayor for his “crimes”. Basilio escapes from the church and runs away. Sisa, not
knowing this, goes to church to get him only to find out that he is gone. She runs home to be
arrested and Crispin nowhere to be found. After being released from jail, she tries to find her
children only to find a bloody garment of Basilio. Due to the horrifying sight, she loses her mind.
Going back to Senor Ibarra, he tried to put up a school wherein he was almost killed when during
the laying of the cornerstone. It was a planned attempt. At a party, Padre Damaso insults Ibarra‟s
father which causes the Crisostomo to leap to his feet and pose a knife at the priest‟s neck. He
did not go on with act because of Maria Clara‟s persuasion. Due to the event, Ibarra was
excommunicated. Because of this, he cannot be with Maria Clara and she is set up with another
man. Ibarra finds out about this and is deeply saddened. Elias, Ibarra‟s supporter/friend, breaks
Ibarra out of jail, gets him on a „banca‟, and they plan to go abroad first. Before this, Ibarra talks
to Maria Clara to find that she does not want to marry her new suitor and that her true father is
not Capitan Tiago but Padre Damaso. He leaves her with a hug. While rowing in the river, Ibarra
and Elias realize that a few Spaniards saw them from a far. Elias tells Ibarra to hide under the
„zacate‟ and Elias jumps off the banca, pretending to be Ibarra, and gets shot. On the other side
of the river, Basilio is grieving the death of his mother, Elias comes to him, shot and bloody, and
tells him that he is going to die and that the young Basilio should burn the bodies. He tells the
boy that there is gold under the land that they are standing on. Young Basilio does so. Ibarra is
left alone to escape. And the story ends Review/Reflection: Rizal wrote the novel to open the
eyes of our countrymen, to let them truly see all the oppression our country was going through
and that it was time to fight back. And he did such act fantastically. The novel was not heavy or
dreading nor was it sugar coated. It was raw and real. It showcased abuse of power, sorrow and
greed. It showcased the truth. It showed us how the Spaniards twisted and turned the truth into
something that would benefit them. It showed the inner clockworks of their selfishness and
abuse. But despite the dark themes, it described love, not entirely romantic love, but more
importantly love of country and family. Despite all the hardships and pain Ibarra went through,
he kept on knocking down doors, he kept on trying to help. And in the sense of family love, we
can all point to the commonly parodied Sisa. She did everything in her power to find her
children, and despite the fact that she did not live to see the day where she finds her boys, she
loved them until the last inch of her heart. Senor Ibarra also had a deep love for his father. This is
supported by the fact that he let Padre Damaso‟s insults pass but when the priest tried to pick on
his father, it took less than a beat for Ibarra to rise to his father‟s defense. The story also
presented forgiveness. Ibarra was a very forgiving man. He forgave the man who tried to kill him
at the placing of the cornerstone of the school he wanted to build. And since the man who
attempted to murder him died in the placing of the cornerstone, Ibarra even offered to pay for the
burial of the man. Sacrifice also was an important theme in the novel. If Elias did not sacrifice
himself, then Ibarra would not have lived and the uprisings in the sequel of Noli Me Tangere
would most likely not take place. For me there are 2 overall themes (themes that are carried on in
to El Filibusterismo) is that war does not necessarily have to end through means of violence, it
could always be ended peacefully, through words and maybe even forgiveness. And the second
being that there will always be evil people in this world, but there will always be good people as
well. And that when you think all the world is left to is violence and hatred, you are very much
wrong because 1) Words are far stronger than any gun and 2) Good will always prevail.

COMPARE AND CONTRAST

El Filibusterismo and Noli Me Tangere

Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo have similarities in terms of aim and purpose. Both aim
to enlighten the Filipinos on what is happening in the country. They want the people to fight for
their country and have the total freedom.
One of the great books written by our national hero, Dr. Jose P. Rizal, is Noli Me Tangere. It is a
Latin word meaning "Touch Me Not". This book is a societal novel. He started writing it in
Madrid, Spain on 1884, continued in Paris, France and was finished in Berlin, Germany on
February 1887. Noli Me Tangere was dedicated to his Inang Bayan, the Philippines. The history
stated in the book "Uncle Tom's Cabin" of Hariet Beecher Stowe, that tells the suffering of
Negro slaves under the cruelty of the Americans, gave our hero the idea. In writing this book. He
saw the similarity of this to the cruelty experienced by the Filipinos under the Spanish rule. This
was published at Imprenta Lette in Berlin, Germany on March 1887 by the help of Dr. Maximo
Viola. As a thanks, Dr. Rizal gave the original manuscript and the PLUMA he used in writing
the novel to Dr. Viola.
Another important writing of our hero is the El Filibusterismo. It comes from the word
"filibustero" which means a person who is against the Roman Catholic. This book is a political
novel. He started writing it on 1890 in London, England and was finished in Brussels, Belgium
on 1891. This was dedicated to the "Three Martyrs", GomBurZa (Fr. Mariano Gomez, Fr. Jose
Burgos, Fr. Jacinto Zamora). Dr. Rizal believed that the three martyrs was only a victim of
cruelty and loss of justice. They was blamed, with a Sgt. Lamadrid, to be the leader of Cavite
Mutiny on January 1872 and sentenced by garote on February that year. El Filibusterismo was
first published in a publication company in Ghent, Belgium. The publication of the book were
stopped because of financial problem. By the help of Dr. Valentin Ventura, the publication
resumed and was finished on September 1891. As a favor, Dr. Rizal gave the original manuscript
of the novel with an autographed copy of the book.

BUHAY SA DAPITAN

 Noong Hulyo 6, 1892 siya ay nakulong sa Fort Bonifacio. Dahil nalaman at hindi

Ang pera nakuha niya sa pagkapanalo saManila Lottery at sa pagkatrabaho niya bilang
isang magsasaka at negosyante ay nagamit sa pagbili ng isang lupain sa Talisay, malapit
sa Dapitan. Dito sa lupa ay nagtayo siya ng tatlong bahay na gawa sa kawayan, kahoy at
nipa. Nakatira sa unang bahay si Jose Rizal at ang hugis nito ay parisukat. Nakatira
naman sa pangalawang bahay ang mga mag-aaral ni Jose Rizal. At ang huli ay gumawa si
Jose Rizal ng isang tirahan para sa mga alaga niya na manok. Ang pangalawang bahay ay
hugis octagon dahil may walong bahagi ito, samantala ang pangatlong bahay naman ay
hugis na hexagon, ito ay may anim na bahagi/parte.
 Masaya nanirahan dito sa Dapitan si Jose Rizal. Siya ay nangagamot sa mga maysakit
tuwing umaga, tapos pupunta siya sa Dapitan gamit ang baroto, (isang barko) para
magbigay lunas sa mga pasyente rito. Nagtuturo at nagtatanim si Jose Rizal tuwing
hapon. Tahimik ang buhay ni Jose Rizal dito. Maraming siya naging kaibigan. Noong
unang Pasko niya sa Dapitan, may imbitasyon si Jose Rizal galing kay Kapitan Carnicero
na doon sa kanila ipagdiwang ang Noche Buena
 Nakapagbili si Jose Rizal ng maraming lupain dahil sa kanyang mga naipon na pera. Ang

lupa.
 Habang nasa Dapitan si Jose Rizal, pinag-aralan din niya ang mga wika ng Malay,
Bisayan at Subanun. Napakagaling ni Jose Rizal. Maraming siyang alam na wika, at lagi
niya ito natatandaan at nagagamit niya ito kung may dayuhan siyang kausap. Nakagawa
din siya ng mga tula tulad ng "Mi Retiro" (My Retreat).
 Marunong din si Jose Rizal magpinta. Sa loob ng Simbahan Santiago, sa Dapitan ay
mayroon gawa na painting si Jose Rizal. Tinawag siya ni Padre Balaguer para gumawa
nito. Dahil kailangan ng pari ang painting para ilagay sa likod ng altar.
 Mayroon mga nilikha si Jose Rizal ng mga sculptures tulad ng statue ng isang babae na
tawag ay "The Dapitan Girl"; bust ng kanyang Ateneo professor na si Father Jose
Guerrico; isang bust din ni St. Paul na binigay niya kay Father Pastells at isang
woodcarving ni Josephine Bracken, ang asawa ni Jose Rizal.
 Mahusay si Jose Rizal sa pagmamahala ng negosyo. Kasama ni Jose Rizal sa negosyo si

 Ang Mi Ultimo Adios ay ang huling tula na isinulat ni Rizal bago siyang binaril sa
Bagumbayan. Noong hapon ng Disyembre 29, 1896, pumunta ang ina at ang mga
babaeng kapatid ni Rizal sa kanyang kulungan. Binigay niya sa kanyang mga kapatid ng
isang libro, alcohol burner (na may papel sa loob), ang kanyang mga sapatos, at isang
payo. Sa kanilang pagbukas ng alcohol burner, nakita nila ang tula (nasa linguahe ng
Espanyol) ni Rizal, na walang pamagat at walang petsa na isinulat. Walang pamagat
binigay ni Rizal sa kanyang huling tula, ngunit pinalangan ito ng "Mi Ultimo Adios"
dahil sa kanyang kaibigan na si Mariano Ponce.
