    A MANAGEABLE EVALUATION ON THE NOVELS


    (NOLI ME TANGERE & EL FILIBUSTERISMO)

    INSTRUCTION: Answer the following questions in your own conviction. Do NOT use any reference/s.
    Be guided with the rubric.

    ORGANIZATION AND STRUCTURE- 10PTS
    GRAMMAR/PUNCTUATION/SPELLING -10PTS

    1. Do you agree that Sisa is the symbol of the oppressed mother country?
    Why? Or Why not?
    - Yes, I agree with Sisa is thought to have represented the motherland who
    was suffering as her character had suffered with the loss of her children. The
    tragic events that ruined her life represented the abuse that the motherland
    received from her colonizers. This idea was shown in his poem Kundiman,
    where he deplored the country’s state of oppression in the hands of
    colonizers. And he expresses that we should love our own country because
    this is where we lived and came from. However, he still expressed the hope
    that someday, the name “Filipino” would be admired, even if bloodshed
    became necessary to reach that goal

    2. How is the situation in the novel, Noli Me Tangere different today?


    - The conflicts in the novel exist until today’s generation that it affects our
    society and the country that needs to learn and read Noli Me Tangere.
    The conflicts that were dominant in the novel like corruption, injustice,
    poverty, and abuse remain the same problem up to this day.

    3. “There are NO despots where there are NO slaves”. What does Simoun
    mean with this message to Basilio?
    - Basilio figures out that Simoun is Ibarra. He approaches Simoun and
    offers to help, explaining that Simoun helped him before. Simoun takes
    out a gun and asks who Basilio thinks he is talking to. Basilio says that
    Simoun is someone he believed to be dead and whose suffering always
    made him feel sympathy. There can be no tyrants without slaves,” was his
    injunction to his people. And today in the Philippines, there can be no tyrants,
    because there are none who would accept slavery or oppression. As long as we
    love freedom, we shall honor Rizal.
    4. Why did Rizal dedicate the novel El Filibusterismo to GOMBURZA?
    - Rizal dedicate the new book to the three priests, Gomez, burgos and Zamora,
    who were executed because of their supposed participation in the first
    revolutionary campaign of modern Philippine nationalism, the munity of
    Cavity. The trial of the three priests was nothing more than a contrived show,
    like the trial of Rizal later. In accordance with the method, tested and tried,
    prominent leaders were removed by making them responsible for actions
    which they have always objected. Rizal derives the reason to dedicate the
    work to them from the fact that the church did not excommunicate the three
    priests and that there were serious mistakes in the surreptitious trial which
    irresponsibly led to his death sentence, and as victims of such circumstances,
    to the opposition which involved his lifetime work.
