As mandated by Republic Act 1425, this course covers the life and works of the country's national hero, Jose Rizal. Among the topics covered are Rizal's
biography and his writings, particularly the novels Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, some of his essays, and various correspondences (CHED. 2017).
Furthermore, this course is intended to provide a constructive understanding of the life, times, ideas and ideals of Jose Rizal. Heroes, according to a popular
saying, are not born; they are made. Rizal and his contemporaries are product of their time. They are molded by their environment and situations which constitute
the call of history. They simply responded to this call at the cost of ignoring their personal welfare and proceeded to put the nation toward its historical path.
To understand Rizal better, it is important to move back from the realm of biography to ambit of social history. Through this perspective, the students
could see historical forces at work. They could see a wider picture beyond the personal life of Jose Rizal and understand why he chose the path that governed
his life.
