III. Rizal’s Work

A. Describe the following Writings of Dr. Jose Rizal.

1. To my Fellow Children (Sa Aking kabata)

Jose Rizal's poem, "To my fellow children..." directly addresses the youth and the future
generations. He reminds us of the importance of one's national language and how it is
our responsibility to take care of it.

and which won a prize from the literary group Rizal speaks of the Filipino youth as the
“Fair hope of my Motherland”, and of the “Indian land” whose “son” is offered “a shining
crown”, by the “Spaniard with wise and merciful.

3. Letter to the Young Woman of Malolos

Rizal penned this writing when he was in London, in response to the request of Marcelo
H. del Pilar. The salient points contained in this letter are as follows:

1. The rejection of the spiritual authority of the friars – not all of the priests in the
country that time embodied the true spirit of Christ and His Church. Most of them
were corrupted by worldly desires and used worldly methods to effect change and
force discipline among the people.

2. The defense of private judgment.

3. Qualities Filipino mothers need to possess – as evidenced by this portion of his

letter, Rizal is greatly concerned of the welfare of the Filipino children and the
homes they grow up in.
