Overview
Taking up Rizal course for credits, like reading Shakespeare to get by in English courses, can be tiresome business for the youth. If reading and discussing the texts can’t be fun, but boring, Rizal will be nothing more than a label for beds, matches, cements, and corporations. “There’s much more to the hero and martyr than an object of reverence or a handy tool for inane speeches and orations. His works must be reflected on not simply because it is a solemn duty but mainly because they are relevant to our time and place.”
