    TITLE OF NOVEL AND AUTHOR’S DEDICATION


     Noli Me Tangere came from the Latin phrase means “Touch Me Not”.
     Taken from the Gospel of Jhon (Chapter 20 Verses 13 to 17)
     Dedicated to the Philippines (“To My Fatherland”)

    SYPNOSIS OF THE NOLI


    Contains 63 chapters and an epilogue
    It all started at the reception of Capitan Tiago which was given in honor of
    Crisostomo Ibarra who had just returned after 7 years of studies in Europe.
    The conversation centered on Ibarra's travels abroad which gave a favorable
    impression on the guests except Padre Damaso, a fat Franciscan friar
    After dinner, one of the guests, Lieutenant Guevara told Ibarra about the sad story of
    his father, Don Rafael's death who accidentally killed a Spanish tax collector after
    defending a helpless boy and was accused of heresy
    The following morning, Ibarra visited his childhood sweetheart Maria Clara and after
    which he went to his father's grave on All Saint's Day
    The gravedigger told Ibarra that his father's corpse had been removed by order of the
    parish priest but because it was a dark night, the gravedigger threw the corpse into the
    lake.
    This angered Ibarra who took his frustrations out on Padre Salvi only to discover that
    the parish priest who ordered the removal of the corpse was Padre Damaso
    In his town San Diego, he met Tasio the Philosopher who was nicknamed "The
    Lunatic" for no one could understand him because his ideas were too advanced
    Tasio was a schoolteacher who complained to Ibarra that the children were losing
    interest in their studies because of the lack of schoolhouse and the attitudes of the
    parish friars
    The most tragic story in the novel was about Sisa who became poor after marrying a
    gambler. She had two sons: Basilio and Crispin who were both sextons working to
    support their mother
    Crispin the younger brother was accused by the chief sexton of stealing money and
    was tortured to death while Basilio was able to escape
    When both boys did not return home, Sisa searched for them but to her great sorrow,
    she became insane
    Capitan Tiago, Maria Clara, and Aunt Isabel; after returning to San Diego were given
    a picnic by Ibarra, and one of the guests was a boatman named Elias
    Later on, Ibarra received a telegram notifying him of the approval of his donation to
    the schoolhouse.
    Ibarra believed that this could pave the way for his country's progress
    Meanwhile, San Diego celebrated its annual fiesta and while Ibarra and Maria Clara
    were praying, Elias whispered to Ibarra that during the laying of the cornerstone of
    the schoolhouse, there was a plot to kill him
    Elias then suspected a yellowish man who built the derrick, was a paid stooge of one
    of Ibarra's enemies. When Ibarra was tasked to trench the cement of the cornerstone,
    the derrick collapsed

    THE NOLI BASED ON TRUTH


     The Noli Me Tangere was a true story of the Philippine conditions during the last
    decades of Spanish rule
     Maria Clara-was Leonor Rivera, although in real life she became unfaithful and
    married an Englishman
     Ibarra and Elias- represented Rizal himself
     Tasio-the philosopher was Rizal’s elder brother Paciano
     Padre Salvi-was identified by Rizalists as Padre Antonio Piernavieja, the hated
    Augustinian friar in Cavite who was killed by the patriots during the Revolution
     Capitan Tiago-was Captain Hilario Sunico of San Nicolas
     Doña Victorina- was Doña Agustina Medel
     Basilio and Crispin- were the Crisostomo brothers of Hagonoy
     Padre Damaso- typical of a domineering friar during the days of Rizal, who was
    arrogant, immoral and anti-Filipino

    MISSING CHAPTER OF THE NOLI


     Entitled “Elias and Salome” which was supposedly Chapter 25 in the original
    manuscript.
     It was deleted by Rizal due to financial constraints.
     The chapter talks about Salome wanting Elias to go with her to Mindoro only to
    be rejected because Elias doesn't want Salome to be entangled with the troubles of
    his past. However, Elias tells Salome to marry an honorable man whom she truly
    deserves to be happy with

    RIZAL'S FRIENDS PRAISE THE NOLI

     As expected, it was condemned by Rizal's enemies


     Among the friends who praised it was Ferdinand Blumentritt and Dr. Antonio Ma.
    Regidor: a Filipino patriot who was exiled due to his complicity in the Cavite
    Mutiny of 1872
