They stayed in a
modest boarding house at
38 Rue Philippe
Champagne, which was
administered by two
Jacoby sisters, Suzanne
and Marie.
In Brussels, Belgium, Dr.
Jose Rizal began writing
his second novel
El Filibusterismo, also
known as "The Reign of
Greed" which was a
continuation of the Noli Me
Tangere.
 He also wrote articles for La Solidaridad in defense of
his oppressed people and to point out the evils of
Spanish rule in the Philippines.

Anderson's Fairy Tales
 Rizal wrote to Marcelo H. Del Pilar
to remind the Filipinos in Madrid that they
did not come to Europe to gamble but to
work for their Fatherland's Freedom.

The gambling Filipinos in Madrid were

angry when they learned of Rizal's
moralizing that they called him "Papa"
(Pope) instead of "Pepe".
 Letters from home which Rizal received in Brussels
that worried him too much. The Calamba Agrarian
trouble was getting worse. The management of the
Dominican hacienda continually raised the land rents
until the time that Rizal's Father refused to pay his rent.
The tenants including the Rizal family were persecuted
and ejected from their lands.
The sad news from home depressed Rizal. His
heart bled to know the sorrowful plight of his parents,
brother, and brothers-in-law.
From Brussels, he wrote to his
sister Soledad on June 6, 1890.
Presentiment of Death
Rizal had bad dreams during the nights
in Brussels, Belgium.
• This morbid presentiment of early death was
divulged by him to M.H. del Pilar, in a letter from
Brussels dated
June 11, 1890.

• Rizal wanted to finish

his second novel before
went to his grave.
 Preparation to go Home
Rizal planned to go home. He could not stay in
Brussels writing a book while his parents, relatives,
and friends in the distant Philippines were
persecuted.
All his friends, including Blumentritt, Jose Ma. Basa,
and Ponce, were horrified by Rizal's plan to return
to the Philippines. They warned him of the danger
that awaited him at home.
On Madrid, Instead of Home

June 20, 1890 - Rizal wrote to M. H. Del Pilar

retaining the latter’s service as a lawyer and
informed Del Pilar that he was going to Madrid,
in order to supervise the handling of the case.
July 29, 1890 - In another letter to Ponce, Rizal
announced that he was leaving Brussels at the
beginning of the following month and would
arrive in Madrid about the 3rd or 4th of August.

for his trip to Madrid

Two months later, Suzanne wrote a
letter to Dr. Jose Rizal, saying:

(1890-1891)

Failure to Get Justice for Family.

Early in August 1890, Rizal arrived in Madrid.
Upon arrival in Madrid, Rizal immediately
sought the help of the Filipino colony, the
Asociacion Hispano-Filipina, and the liberal
Spanish newspapers in securing justice for the
oppressed Calamba tenants, including his
family.

And with verse and line severe
Fling abroad a jest and jeer.
Muse, that in the past inspired me,
And with songs of love hast fired me;
Go thou now to dull repose,
For today in sordid prose
I must earn the gold that hired me.
Now must I ponder deep,
Meditate, and struggle on;
E’en sometimes I must weep;
For he who love would keep
Great pain has undergone.
Fled are the days of ease,
The days of Love’s delight;
When flowers still would please
And give to suffering souls surcease
From pain and sorrow’s blight.
One by one they have passed on,
All I loved and moved among;
Dead or married—from me gone,
For all I place my heart upon
By fate adverse are stung.
Go thou, too, O Muse, depart,
Other regions fairer find
For my land but offers art
For the laurel, chains that bind,
For a temple, prisons blind.
But before thou leavest me, speak
Tell me with thy voice sublime,
Thou couldst ever from me seek
A song of sorrow for the weak,
Defiance to the tyrant’s crime.
Rizal-Del Pilar Rivalry
Toward the closing days of 1890, there arose an unfortunate
rivalry between Rizal and Marcelo H. Del Pilar for supremacy.
- the fearless lawyer-journalist,
was gaining prestige in Madrid for his vigorous editorials in
La Solidaridad, which he came to own.
-As a leader, Rizal tried to imbue his compatriots with his own idealism
for he believed that to gain prestige for the Propaganda Movement and
to win the respect of the Spanish people they must possess high
standards. Unfortunately, his idealism was not shared by certain
frivolous countrymen, who loved wine, women, and cards.
Some of his former admirers, who supported his leadership turned
against him because they resented his interference in their private lives.
They became supporters of Del Pilar.
January 01, 1891
Del Pilar opposed the proposition, however, he was
willing to publish articles that would express the
aspirations and demands of the Filipino people
• Owing to Del Pilar’s opposition, the proposition to
place La Solidaridad under the control of the
Responsable was abandoned. The meeting proceeded to
the business of electing the Responsable.
• It was agreed that the Responsable should be
elected by a two-thirds vote of the Filipinos
 VOTING
Rizal Abdicates His leadership.
The election took place during the first week of February
1891. The Filipinos were divided into two hostile camps
the Rizalistas and the Pilaristas. Venus
• On the second day of balloting, the result was again
indecisive-Rizal won but the votes cast for him did not
reach the required two-thirds.
• On the third day, Mariano Ponce appealed to his
Júpiter Marte
countrymen with stirring eloquence to vote for Rizal.
Some Pilaristas, evidently, heeded his plea. The voting
that day resulted in Rizal's victory. Having obtained the
necessary two-thirds vote, he became the Responsable.
DECLINATION

Rizal graciously
declined the coveted
position. he preferred to
abdicate his leadership
rather than be the cause of
disunity and bitterness
among his countrymen.
ADIOS MADRID

Rizal wrote a brief note thanking his compatriots

for electing him as Responsable. Sadly, he packed up
his bags, paid his bills, and boarded a train leaving for
Biarritz.
As his train pulled out of the railway station, he gazed
through its window at the city of Madrid, where he was
happy during his first sojourn (1882-85) but unhappy
on his second visit (1890-91). It was the last time he
saw Madrid, Spain...
