Welcome to our store you can consult customer service if you have any questions Who was Jose Rizal? While most Filipinos know him to be our national hero, many will find that there is a superficiality to their knowledge of the Filipino patriot. In this collection of essays, historian Jose Victor Z. Torres invites us to engage in an in-depth reexamination of how we see Rizal. Addressing the sociohistorical context of Rizal’s nineteenth-century world, his novels, and his ambitions, Torres offers a thought-provoking perspective on Rizal. By stripping away the title of pambansang bayani and delving into a deeper, more personal understanding of who he was through this work, we can reconfigure our perception of Rizal to gain a richer appreciation of his life and legacy. Beyond looking at Rizal as a hero, we might want to discover who Rizal was at the end of the day—a human being. Published in 2021.
