Reading Rizal Yesterday and Today. Sunday, September 17, 2006. The Morga and The Noli. Apt image by Utah Biloba who captions it 'More prophets and amateur historians' (flickr.com/).

Filipination: January 2006
http://filipination.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Toward the true Filipino and one nation. Friday, January 27, 2006. One Hundred Years Of Solitude (. I don’t want another 100 Years Of Solitude on the part of us Filipinos. I never liked that novel of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I never liked the way the author writes. He confuses me, and in that he is very successful: he wrote the novel to confuse the reader. Literally, a place where people are taught to become wise a university) and salumpuwit. Literally, something to catch one’s ass a chair). 1986: Last ye...

RIOT, Rizal In Our Time. Jose Rizal as the Undiscovered National Hero. Sunday, June 11, 2006. The power of the pen. And with that, as a writer I find I agree with Zaide too. Except that the pen oftentimes becomes the writer's master and not his tool, his slave. To me, Rizal's writings did not succeed in freeing his people from the bondage of their tribalism. That is Rizal's Unfinished Revolution. Posted by Frank A Hilario at 1:42 PM. A Shot Story (Flickr). Word According To Frank. Stories Of My Life.

RIOT, Rizal In Our Time. Jose Rizal as the Undiscovered National Hero. Wednesday, July 26, 2006. I have my own answer now, which I shall give you in a little while but, first, let us examine the retraction letter in its fullness. Here it is, from Gregorio F Zaide's Jose Rizal: Life, Works And Writings. I declare that I am a Catholic, and in this religion, in which I was born and educated, I wish to live and die. Manila, December 29th, 1896. That is a beautiful piece of writing if you haven't noticed.

RIOT, Rizal In Our Time. Jose Rizal as the Undiscovered National Hero. Sunday, June 11, 2006. The photo shown here is from se.inf.ethz.ch/ and simply titled 'Sunrise in Spain.' It is a magnificent view, and so I am surprised that Rizal would prefer not to see a city first at sunrise. He is thinking of studying a city. He is thinking too rationally he allows his logical mind to ignore the beauty of the surprise. Posted by Frank A Hilario at 5:38 PM. A Shot Story (Flickr). Word According To Frank.

RIOT, Rizal In Our Time. Jose Rizal as the Undiscovered National Hero. Saturday, June 10, 2006. Close a window, open a door. He didn’t know it, but Rizal was leaving. For the last time. He was going home one way or the other. He left. On 18 October 1891 on board the SS Melbourne. Gregorio F Zaide tells the story ( Jose Rizal: Life, Works And Writings. 2003: 174): There were 80 first-class passengers mostly Europeans, including two Spaniards who were going to.
