    Noli Me
    Tángere
    Written in Spanish and published in Germany,
    1887, José Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere played a
    crucial role in the political history of the
    Philippines.
    Noli Me Tángere

    At the time, the Spaniards prohibited the Filipinos from


    reading the controversial book because of the unlawful
    acts depicted in the novel. Yet they were not able to
    ban it completely and as more Filipinos read the book,
    it opened their eyes to the truth that they were being
    manhandled by the friars. In this revolutionary book,
    you’ll learn the story of Crisostomo Ibarra, how he
    dealt with Spanish authorities, and how he prepared
    for his revenge, as told in Rizal’s second book.
    The story revolves around Crisostomo
    Ibarra, mixed-race heir of a wealthy
    clan, returning home after seven years
    in Europe and filled with ideas on how to
    better the lot of his countrymen. Striving
    for reforms, he is confronted by an
    abusive ecclesiastical hierarchy and a
    Spanish civil administration by turns
    indifferent and cruel.

    CRISOSTOMO IBARRA
    “The Noli,” as it is called in the Philippines is a
    passionate love story set against the ugly
    political backdrop of repression, torture, and
    murder.
    It was the first major artistic manifestation
    of Asian resistance to European colonialism,
    and Rizal became a guiding conscience—and
    martyr—for the revolution that would
    subsequently rise up in the Spanish province.

    NOLI ME TANGERE
    El Filibusterismo

    El filibusterismo, also known by its alternative


    English title The Reign of Greed, is the second
    novel written by Philippine national hero José
    Rizal. It is the sequel to Noli Me Tángere and,
    like the first book, was written in Spanish. It
    was first published in 1891 in Ghent.
