ANNOTATED EDITION OF MORGA PUBLISHED

· Rizal’s outstanding achievement in Paris was the publication in 1890 of his annotated edition of Morga’s Sucesos, which he wrote in the British Museum. It was printed by Garnier Freres. The prologue was written by Professor Blumentritt upon the request of Rizal
· Rizal dedicated his new edition of Morga to the Filipino people so that they would know of their glorious past
· The title page of Rizal’s annotated edition of Morga reads: “Paris, Liberia de Garnier Hermanos, 1890”
· The Philippines Within a Century-article written by Rizal which he expressed his views on the Spanish
colonization in the Philippines and predicted with amazing accuracy the tragic end of Spain’s sovereignty in Asia
· The Indolence of the Filipinos- other essay of Rizal is also a prestigious work of historical scholarship. It is an able defense of the alleged indolence of the Filipinos
-Rizal made a critical study of the causes why his people did not work hard during the Spanish regime. His main thesis was that the Filipinos are not by nature indolent
· International Association of Filipinologists-association proposed by Rizal to establish taking advantage of world attention which was then focused at the Universal Exposition in 1889 in Paris and
have its inaugural convention in the French capital
· Project for Filipino College in Hong Kong- another magnificent project of Rizal in Paris which also
fizzled out was his plan to establish a modern college in Hong Kong
· Por Telefono-another satirical work as a reply to another slanderer, Fr. Salvador Font, who
masterminded the banning of his Noli, in the fall of 1889
-it was published in booklet form in Barcelona, 1889, this satirical pamphlet under the authorship of “Dimas Alang” is a witty satire which ridicules Father Font
· Shortly after New Year, Rizal made a brief visit to London. It may be due to two reasons: (1) to check up his annotated edition of Morga’s Sucesos with the original copy in the British Museum (2) to see Gertrude Beckett for the last time
