Friars and Filipinos is an abridged translation of Dr. Jose Rizal's Tagalog novel, Noli Me Tangere, first published in 1900. The book provides a glimpse into the social and political climate of the Philippines during the Spanish colonial period. The story follows the life of Juan Crisostomo Ibarra, a young Filipino who returns to his homeland after studying in Europe. He discovers the harsh realities of colonialism, corruption, and oppression, and becomes determined to fight for justice and freedom. Along the way, he encounters various characters who represent different facets of Filipino society, including the friars who wield immense power and influence over the people. The novel is a powerful critique of colonialism and a call for Filipino independence. This abridged translation offers a condensed version of the original text, making it accessible to a wider audience. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Philippine history, literature, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
