Author

José Rizal (1861–1896) is the national hero of the Philippines — ophthalmologist, novelist, and martyr of the struggle against Spanish colonial rule. Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo exposed friar power and social injustice with a novelist's eye; essays such as The Indolence of the Filipino answered colonial insult with history. Rizal wrote for reform and died for a nation that claimed him.
