The José Rizal National Centennial Commission is charged by law with the preparation for a fitting and dignified celebration of the First Centenary of the birth of the National Hero of the Philippines, José Rizal. The objectives set for the Commission to meet include, among others, the publication of all the works of the Hero in the original languages in which they were written as well as their translations into English and the principal languages of the Philippines. Appearing in several volumes, the greater part of the Centennial Edition consists of Centennial issues for the general diffusion of Rizal's ideas. The whole set covers the whole field of the Hero's writings, namely, reminiscences and travels, all his extant letters known to the Commission; poems and prose works, the novels Noli me Tángere and El Filibusterismo, is edition of Morga's Sucesos de las Islas Filipinas, political and historical writings, facsimiles of some of his other works and selected excerpts from his philosophical thoughts. Besides the above we have additional volumes containing the excerpts of the writings... and other items associated with the life of the hero. This is the entire range of the Centennial Edition which the José Rizal national Centennial Commission takes pleasure to present to the reading public-- to know from his own works who Jośe Rizal really was, and to evaluate and appreciate his contributions to the welfare of his country and of mankind. There is no better way of paying homage to the memory of Rizal, aside from the cultural buildings to be constructed in his honor, than to collect all his works and those about him by others, and prepare them for easy understanding of the people whose cause he chose to die. - Jose E. Romero
