Answer:
El filibusterismo reveals the Spanish conquistadors' avarice. It demonstrates how crooked, nasty, and avaricious the authorities are.
Explanation:
- The book focuses on the coming revolution and debates whether the Philippines should revolt violently or peacefully via diplomacy.
- The topic of Noli Me Tangere appears to highlight the abuses that the Spanish friars and authorities committed.
- The major purpose of the essay is to defend Filipinos against charges from outsiders that they are ignorant and naïve, and to illustrate how they lived during the Spanish colonial period, as well as their screams and sufferings against oppressive rulers.
With regards to perceptions of national identity, both of Rizal's books had a significant impact on Philippine society.
