tagesschauAuf den Spuren des philippinischen Schriftstellers José Rizal
Zwei Romane von José Rizal werden zur Buchmesse in Frankfurt neu veröffentlicht. Auch nahe Heidelberg gedenkt man des Nationalhelden der Philippinen bis heute - denn in Wilhelmsfeld vollendete er sein literarisches Werk. Von D. Konrat.
Eugene Alvin Villar 🇵🇭A non-review of #Civ7 from the point of view of playing as #JoséRizal, one of the game’s new playable leaders:
“It presents an astonishingly eclectic range of historical figures to play as… and it gives each of them the same set of verbs. Even worse, it further homogenizes them by making them compete for the same goals via the same means, as if a hypothetical template civilization existed by which all others should be judged.”
In Sid Meier’s Civilization VII, Rizal Cannot Be Rizal - Philstar Tech
Editor’s Note: We asked Jed Cruz to do a non-review about the latest Sid Meier Civilization game but with a twist. Jed explores the possibilities of winning with Jose Rizal if he was truly historically accurate. Touch Me Not The achievement for winning a Civ VII campaign as Jose Rizal is called “Can’t touch this.” […]
Sophia Basaldua-SunI’m sure you all have seen the TikTok debates about whether books are political or not. In the case of José Rizal and his body of work, his two novels were not only resoundingly political and anticolonial, but Rizal himself was executed by the Spanish colonial regime in the Philippines not because he was a part of the planning of the Philippine Revolution of 1896 (He was not), but because of his novels. The military claimed his novels had incited the revolution.
Imagine being such a powerful storyteller that a corrupt state decides to execute Yu on the grounds that your novels moved people to action. That is the power of storytelling and literature.
Of course, this story remains deeply resonant and relevant not only to the Philippines, but in the U.S., where efforts to ban books rage on, revealing how threatened some officials feel by the power of storytelling even as we’re told that studying literature is frivolous.
Remember José Rizal, and take some comfort in knowing the power of words and the power of communication to effect change.
There is undoubtedly more to be said about the relationship between the novel and the nation, but I’ll leave this month’s series at: I hope you’ll consider reading Rizal.

ICYMI, this is the first time the Filipinos have been explicitly represented in the #Civilization strategy game. (José Rizal is currently one of the several civilization-less leaders that can be selected when a new age starts.)
