Rare edition with unique illustrations and elegant classic cream paper. El Filibusterismo, also known by its English alternate title The Reign of Greed, is the second novel written by Philippine national hero Jose Rizal. It is the sequel to Noli me tangere and, like the first book, was written in Spanish.Thirteen years after leaving the Philippines, Crisostomo Ibarra returns as Simoun, a rich jeweler sporting a beard and blue-tinted glasses, and a confidant of the Captain-General. Abandoning his idealism, he becomes a cynical saboteur, seeking revenge against the Spanish Philippine system responsible for his misfortunes by plotting a revolution. Includes unique illustrations.

El Filibusterismo, the second of Jose Rizal's novels of Philippine life, is a story of the last days of the Spanish regime in the Philippines. Under the name of The Reign of Greed it is for the first time translated into English. Written some four or five years after Noli Me Tangere, the book represents Rizal's more mature judgment on political and social conditions in the islands, and in its graver and less hopeful tone reflects the disappointments and discouragements which he had encountered in his efforts to lead the way to reform. Rizal's dedication to the first edition is of special interest, as the writing of it was one of the grounds of accusation against him when he was condemned to death in 1896.

El filibusterismo (transl. The filibusterism; The Subversive or The Subversion, as in the Locsín English translation, are also possible translations), 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.The novel centers on the Noli-El fili duology's main character Crisóstomo Ibarra, now returning for vengeance as "Simoun". The novel's dark theme departs dramatically from the previous novel's hopeful and romantic atmosphere, signifying Ibarra's resort to solving his country's issues through violent means, after his previous attempt in reforming the country's system made no effect and seemed impossible with the corrupt attitude of the Spaniards toward the Filipinos.The novel, along with its predecessor, was banned in some parts of the Philippines as a result of their portrayals of the Spanish government's abuses and corruption. These novels, along with Rizal's involvement in organizations that aimed to address and reform the Spanish system and its issues, led to Rizal's exile to Dapitan and eventual execution. Both the novel and its predecessor, along with Rizal's last poem, are now considered Rizal's literary masterpieces.Both of Rizal's novels had a profound effect on Philippine society in terms of views about national identity, the Catholic faith and its influence on the Filipino's choice, and the government's issues in corruption, abuse of power, and discrimination, and on a larger scale, the issues related to the effect of colonization on people's lives and the cause for independence. These novels later on indirectly became the inspiration to start the Philippine Revolution.Throughout the Philippines, the reading of both the novel and its predecessor is now mandatory for high school students throughout the archipelago, although it is now read using English, Filipino, and the Philippines' regional languages.

José Protasio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda (June 19, 1861 - December 30, 1896) was a Filipino nationalist, writer and polymath active at the end of the Spanish colonial period of the Philippines. He is considered the national hero (pambansang bayani) of the Philippines. An ophthalmologist by profession, Rizal became a writer and a key member of the Filipino Propaganda Movement, which advocated political reforms for the colony under Spain.He was executed by the Spanish colonial government for the crime of rebellion after the Philippine Revolution broke out; it was inspired by his writings. Though he was not actively involved in its planning or conduct, he ultimately approved of its goals which eventually resulted in Philippine independence.Rizal is widely considered one of the greatest heroes of the Philippines and has been recommended to be so honored by an officially empaneled National Heroes Committee. However, no law, executive order or proclamation has been enacted or issued officially proclaiming any Filipino historical figure as a national hero. He wrote the novels Noli Me Tángere (1887) and El filibusterismo (1891), which together are taken as a national epic, in addition to numerous poems and essays. (wikipedia.org)

Noli me tangere es el texto más célebre de José Rizal. En 1887 Rizal publicó esta novela sobre la sociedad filipina del siglo XIX en medio de su actividad política. Pretendía denunciar los desmanes del gobierno español y sus instituciones religiosas, a través de un relato en el que comparecen las clases sociales imperantes, el amor y la reflexión filosófica.Esta novela, de indudable contenido histórico, es también una obra de un fuerte contenido social.Cuando Rizal volvió a las Filipinas tras terminar sus estudios médicos, lo deportaron a Dapitan, en la isla de Mindanao. Noli me tangere creó tanta controversia que el gobernador general Emilio Terrero y Perinat recibió a Rizal en el Palacio de Malacañán para informarle de que su libro era subversivo.Después fue encarcelado por incitar a la rebelión a través de sus escritos. Y en 1896, a la edad de treinta y cinco años, lo ejecutaron en Manila.Noli me tangere es una novela costumbrista sobre la Filipinas de la época anterior a su independencia de España. Y, también, una novela romántica y sentimental de amores contrariados o imposibles.A todo ello se añade una reflexión política sobre las difíciles relaciones de la colonia con su metrópoli. Hay, además, un alegato contra la degradación moral de la sociedad filipina por la imposición de una religiosidad en los límites de la superstición.En una carta a su amigo Félix Resurrección Hidalgo, pintor filipino residente en Madrid, Rizal explica el porqué del título Noli me tangere. Es una expresión bíblica, concretamente de Juan 20:17, cuando Jesús, tras su resurrección, evita el contacto de María Magdalena diciéndole deja de tocarme:El libro contiene cosas de las que nadie entre nosotros ha hablado hasta el presente; son tan delicadas que no pueden ser tocadas por ninguna persona. En lo que a mí toca, he intentado hacer lo que nadie ha querido. Yo he querido responder a las calumnias que por tantos siglos han sido amontonadas sobre nosotros y nuestro país.

El Filibusterismo, the second of José Rizal's novels of Philippine life, is a story of the last days of the Spanish régime in the Philippines. Under the name of The Reign of Greed it is for the first time translated into English. Written some four or five years after Noli Me Tangere, the book represents Rizal's more mature judgment on political and social conditions in the islands, and in its graver and less hopeful tone reflects the disappointments and discouragements which he had encountered in his efforts to lead the way to reform. Rizal's dedication to the first edition is of special interest, as the writing of it was one of the grounds of accusation against him when he was condemned to death in 1896.

At the center of "Noli Me Tangere (Touch Me Not)" by Philippine national hero José Rizal is the conflict against Spanish colonialism. The Philippines, which is named after King Philip II of Spain, was ruled by the Spanish empire as a colony from 1565 until the Philippine Revolution ended this rule in 1898. For his part in the Philippine Revolution, José Rizal was tried and convicted for rebellion, sedition, and conspiracy. His sentence was to be death by firing squad. Juan Crisóstomo Ibarra, the main character of "Noli Me Tangere (Touch Me Not)," returns to the Phillipines after a seven year absence studying in Europe. He is betrothed to the María Clara, the beautiful daughter of Captain Tiago. With this work Rizal set out to write a novel that would expose the ills of Philippine society and in so doing created a passionate love story set against the backdrop of the political conflict against a repressive regime. "Noli Me Tangere (Touch Me Not)" and its sequel "El Filibusterismo" are exceptional firsthand documents of the real struggles faced by the Philippine peoples at the end of the 19th century.

Noli me tangere est le premier roman de José Rizal, publié en Europe en 1887, à l'âge de 26 ans. Le titre est en langue latine, et signifie "ne me touchez pas". Rizal a pris ces mots de la Bible, spécifiquement de Jean 20:17, dans lequel Jésus, après sa résurrection, évite le contact de Marie-Madeleine. Noli me tangere est, en même temps, un roman costumbrista sur les Philippines de l'époque avant son indépendance de l'Espagne, un roman romantique et sentimental sur les amours contradictoires ou impossibles et un plaidoyer contre la dégradation morale de la société philippine par l'imposition d'une religiosité dans les limites de la superstition. A tout cela s'ajoute une réflexion politique sur les relations difficiles de la colonie avec sa métropole.

REGÍSTRASE en la historia de los padecimientos humanos un cáncer de un carácter tan maligno que el menor contacto le irrita y despierta en él agudísimo dolores. Pues bien, cuantas veces en medio de las civilizaciones modernas he querido evocarte, ya para acompañarme de tus recuerdos, ya para compararte con otros países, tantas se me presentó tu querida imagen como un cáncer social parecido. Deseando tu salud que es la nuestra, y buscando el mejor tratamiento, haré contigo lo que con sus enfermos los antiguos: exponíanlos en las gradas del templo, para que cada persona que viniese de invocar a la Divinidad les propusiese un remedio. Y a este fin, trataré de reproducir fielmente tu estado sin contemplaciones; levantaré parte del velo que encubre el mal, sacrificando a la verdad todo, hasta el mismo amor propio, pues, como hijo tuyo, adolezco también de tus defectos y flaquezas.Europa, 1886 EL AUTOR
