Overview: The Philippines was under the colonial rule of Spain, the United States, and Japan for varying lengths of time since the sixteenth century to the present. Colonialism is central to the life, culture, and history of our people; and a number of Filipino novelists (namely, Jose Rizal, Linda Ty-Casper, F. Sionil Jose, Maximo M. Kalaw, Juan C. Laya, Bienvenido N. Santos, Stevan Javellana, Edilberto K. Tiempo, Wilfrido D. Nolledo, Ninotchka Rosca, Miguel Syjuco, and Gina Apostol) have looked at the various permutations of that colonial trauma, from the outright physical brutality of war to the more subtle and insidious forms of their oppression. Theirs is their way of fighting back (or, as Bill Ashcroft would say, the colonized writing back to the colonizers), a way of asserting the value of their narrative. This book traces that are of resistance from Rizal's Noli Me Tangere (1887) to Apostol's Insurrecto (2018), spanning more than 130 years, three colonial periods, and one post-independence era. It finally does what other former colonized nations have been doing in their own national narratives: to reclaim their identity and to proclaim their sense of self-worth.
