At the top, all that is best in Philippine life: woman, symbolizing constancy, religious faith symbolized
by the tombstone, with a laurel (courage) and the flower of the
pomelo, worn by bride and groom at a wedding and symbolizing purity.
‘A mis P(adres.) al escribir e(sta obra he estado) pensando continuamente e(n
vosotros que me) habeis infundido los (primeros pensamientos) y las primeras
ideas; a (vosotros os dedi)co estemanuscrito de me (joventud com
p)rueba de amor.
Berlin, (21 de Febrero de) 1887.
The words partly covered are inner dedication by Rizal to his parents, the complete text being probably:
The author's name, meaning the green of renewal, mounting up into the green of the most enduring of all Philippine trees, the bamboo.
At the bottom, all that is worst in Philippine life: the helmet of the Civil Guard, the whip and instruments of torture, and the foot of a
friar.
• There is no more tragic love and of course no greater love than of two beings unable to reach each other, since such a love eternally remains unblemished.
• Rizal's book persistently unmasks the evils of Spaniards in the Philippines of every kind.
• He exposes corruption and brutality of the civil guards which drive good men to crime and banditry.
Rizal does not, however, spare his fellow countrymen.
The supers-titious and
hypocritical fanaticism
Ignorance, corruption,
and bru-tality of the
Filipino civil guards
Passion for gambling of
Filipinos
Servility of the wealthy Filipino to-
wards Spanish
authorities
Ridiculous efforts of
