These works are notable for both their place in Filipino independence and for their beautiful language.
Rizal's most famous novel, Noli Me Tangere, drew attention to the unjust Spanish rule in the Philippines after its 1887 publication. It is still widely read all over the world today, as is the novel's sequel, El Filibusterismo (1891).

Satire was an effective rhetorical device for Rizal's political message. His plays often portray absurd situations that directly echoed Rizal's criticism of the political state of the Philippines.
"To the Child, Jesus," written by Rizal at age 14, notes the writer's early interest in Christianity and social inequity.

The poem was named posthumously by fellow activist Mariano Ponce after the writing was found in Rizal's cell.
When José Rizal wasn't practicing medicine or leading a political revolution, he was composing music. He often transformed his poems into musical lyrics. Some of Rizal's compositions have been adapted into longer pieces by later generations.

Rizal's correspondence was no less prolific than his literary or political writing. Many scholars believe that the best way to understand Rizal as a political figure and personality is by reading his extensive letters and petitions. He wrote back and forth with fellow activists, family members, friends Ferdinand Blumentritt and Leanor Rivera, and his love, Josephine Bracken.
In the 1880s and 1890s Philippines, art and politics went hand in hand. Rizal belonged to a group of activist artists that spoke up against tyrannical rule with their writing, music, and art. His speeches honor his friends and compatriots who fought alongside Rizal for Filipino freedom.
