who are the sources of the conflicting accounts or analyses on the Rizal retraction
Answers
Answer:
Rizal's extraction from religious error has been a very controversial claim since it was first brought up. In it, Rizal disowns all his life's work. In the supposed retraction document, he is alleged to have written:
“I declare myself a Catholic and in this religion in which I was born and educated I wish to live and die. I retract with all my heart whatever in my words, writings, publications and conduct has been contrary to my character as son of the Catholic Church."
There were several sources to conflicting accounts or analyses on the Rizal retraction.
One of the Jesuit priests who visited Rizal during his final hours, Fr. Vicente Balaguer, was the source of the disputed account of Rizal's Retraction. A Jesuit superior, Padre Pio Pi. Rafael Palma is a politician, lawyer, and educator. He translated the writings of Palma and Austin Coates, the Assistant Colonial Secretary, under the name Roman Ozaeta.
