Through them the colonial milieu is expanded - its officialdom, education, legal system, power plays, social patterns - and seen anew as context for conflict and insight. To this translation, Soledad Lacson-Locsin has restored the original dedication "Al Pueblo Filipino y su Gobierno" which was not in the printed edition, in order to heighten the change she saw from the softer emotions of the Noli to the anger and passion of the Fili.Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due |
