A PROPOSAL ON
WRITING A NOVEL ABOUT
THE PHILIPPINES
Lazaro
• During the course of Rizal’s stay in several European
cities, he cited that Filipinos were practically an unknown
nation (Guerrero, 1998).
• Thus, during Paris Exposition of 1889, Rizal encouraged
his fellow expatriates to call themselves Indios Bravos.
Indios Bravos
The Exposition Universelle de 1889 was a highly
successful international exhibition and one of the few
world's fairs to make a profit.
• Rizal presented a proposal on writing a novel about the
Philippines to the Circulo-Hispano Filipino on 21 March
1887.
• One year after, Pedro Paterno’s Ninay was published with
its subtitle Costumbres Filipinas (Philippine Customs).
• Ninay is considered as the first Philippine novel
published in 1908. It portrayed the richness of the
Philippine environment and culture through intertwined
narratives and descriptions of the countries sights and
rituals.
