THEOF RIZAL
DECISION TO RETURN HOME
After five(5) years of sojourn in Europe, he decided to return home to the Philippines.
Paciano, Silvestre Ubaldo (his brother-in-law), Chengoy (Jose M. Cecilio) and other friends warned him not to return home because of the publication of his “Noli Me Tangere” which caused uproar and anger among friars in the Philippines. Rizal did not heed their warning.
RIZAL’S REASON TO RETURN HOME:
To serve his people who had long been
oppressed by Spanish tyrants;
To find out for himself how the Noli Me Tangere and his other writings were affecting Filipinos and Spaniards;
To operate his mother’s eyes;
To inquire why Leonor Rivera
remained silent.
RIZAL’S ROUTE
Rome
Marseille, France
Saigon (Ho Chi Minh), Vietnam
Manila, Philippines
July 3, 1887 – Rizal left Rome by train for Marseilles, a French port and boarded Djemnah.July 30, 1887 – In Saigon, he transferred to another steamer Haiphong.August 2, 1887 – Haiphong left Saigon to ManilaAugust 5, 1887 – The steamer Haiphong finally arrived in Manila.August 8, 1887 – Rizal reached Calamba.
After a dramatic meeting with his parents and family, Rizal immediately had the ground floor of the house turned into a medical clinic. Noticing upon his arrival that his mother could hardly see, she became his first patient.
With his surgical skills acquired from the best eye clinics in Europe he was succesful in operating the defect of his mother’s sightless eyes by removing the double cataracts.
BACKIN TOWN
News started to spread out fast in Calamba about Jose who is now a doctor. Patients began to flock in to seek medical help. His policy with his professional fee was simple:
➜ If the patient is poor, thank you was enough.(some patients insisted bringing him vegetables, fruits or chickens)
➜ However, if the patient is rich, then he would charge in a European manner.
Realizing that he arrived from Germany some people called him as Dr. Uleman. He earned P900 in a few months and P5,000 before he left the Philippines.
DOCTORULEMAN
➜ He painted several beautiful landscapes in Calamba.
➜ He translated German poems of Von Wildernath in Tagalog.
➜ He introduced European sports fencing and shooting to discourage them from cockfighting and gambling.
➜ Needless to say, despite of his accomplishments he never forgot his town mates. Together with friends, he built a simple gymnasium for the young folks. He wanted them to spend time on things with productive use.
IN CALAMBA
Leonor Rivera
– Rizal, during the six months of his vacation in Calamba, tried to visit her in Tarlac but his parents forbade him to go because Leonor’s mother did not like him for a son-in-law & due to parent’s advice that his relationship with Leonor only brought conflicts between his and Leonor’s parents.
SAD MOMENTSWHILE INCALAMBA
Olimpia Mercado-Ubaldo
– While in chaos was surrounding his novel, Rizal was once more devastated by the untimely death of his elder sister, Olimpia. She died due to lingering illness, childbirth. Rizal partly blamed himself for her death, for as a doctor, he should have prevented something like this from happening to his very own family.
THE NOLI ME TANGERE
CONTROVERSY
The storm over the Noli Me
Tangere
A few weeks after his arrival, a storm broke out over his novel as Rizal received a letter From Gov. General Emelio Terrero, ordering him to come to Malacanang for some questioning. Rizal, in response went to Manila and appeared before the Governor.
Realizing that Rizal’s life may be in grave danger, one king governor assigned a bodygourd to him. The bofygourd was a yound spanish lieutenant, Don Jose Taviel de Andrade.

•Base on their assessment the novel contained “subversive ideas against the Church and Spain” and recommended for its banning and circulation in the islands.

injurious to the interest of the colonial governmentand the Catholic clergy, must be immediately banned
• Fr. Jose Rodriguez-who published as a reaction to the NMT a pamphlet entitled
“Caiingat Cayo”. The said pamphlet stated that whoever reads the Noli shall commit a mortal sin.
• The novel was fiercely attacked in the session hall of the Senate of the Spanish Cortes.

• Vicente Barrantes Spanish Writer- who openly criticized the novel in the spanish newspaper La
España Moderna.
THE ENEMIES FROM
THE CHURCH
Though the enemy may be enormous the defenders were also busy spreading their cause.
• Propagandists such as Marcelo H. del Pilar, Graciano Lopez-Jaena, Antonio Ma. Regidor, Mariano Ponce rushed to uphold the truths of the Noli.

RIZAL’S ALLIES
Influenced by the novel, Governor-General Emilio Terrero ordered a government investigation of the friar estates to remedy whatever
inequities might have been present in connection with land taxes and with tenant relations.
One of the friar estates affected was the Calamba hacienda by the Dominican order since 1883.
Upon hearing about the investigation, the people of Calamba asked helped from Rizal to gather facts and list the grievances so that the government
might institute certain agrarian reforms.
AGRARIAN PROBLEM IN
CALAMBA
1.The hacienda of the Dominican Order
comprised not only the lands around Calamba, but the whole town of
Calamba.
2.The profits of the Dominican Order
continually increased because of the arbitrary
increase of he rentals paid by the tenants.
3.The hacienda owner never contributed a single
centavo for the celebration of the town
fiesta, for the education of the children, and for the
improvement of agriculture.
4.Tenants who spent much labor in clearing the lands were dispossessed of the said lands for flimsy
reasons.
5.High rates of interest were arbitrarily charged the tenants for delayed
payment of rentals
6.When the rentals could not be paid, the hacienda management confiscated the work animals, tools, and farm implements of
the tenants.
