B. Moralist Criticism D. Structuralist or Formalist Criticism

_____ 2. Which of the literary criticism approaches is exemplified in the excerpts from
Luis H. Francia’s “Introduction to Jose Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere”?

Written in Spanish and published in 1887, José Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere played a
crucial role in the political history of the Philippines. Drawing from experience, the
conventions of the nineteenth-century novel, and the ideals of European liberalism, Rizal
offered up a devastating critique of a society under Spanish colonial rule.
Using satire brilliantly, Rizal creates other memorable characters whose lives
manifest the poisonous effects of religious and colonial oppression. Capitan Tiago; the
social climber Doña Victorina de Espadaña and her toothless Spanish husband; the
Guardia Civil head and his harridan of a wife; the sorority of devout women; the
disaffected peasants forced to become outlaws: in sum, a microcosm of Philippine
society. In the afflictions that plague them, Rizal paints a harrowing picture of his
beloved but suffering country in a work that speaks eloquently not just to Filipinos but
to all who have endured or witnessed oppression.

_____ 5. Which of the literary criticism approaches is exemplified in the quoted statements
below?

“Patriarchy, according to Joe Santillan of the University of California, is a

system where male-dominated structures and social arrangement cause
oppression of women. This is exhibited in Cinderella through the concept of her
living ‘happily ever after’ after getting married to the prince. In this context,
Cinderella fulfills the damsel in distress archetype whereas the prince is
represented as the hero, regardless of the fact that he had no role to play in her
initial rebellion from her family and her will to change her situation. The story is
wrapped up as if her deep-rooted issues disappeared through the arrival of the
male figure.”

 Why Question Evolution?
Alex is confused. He has always believed in God and in creation. But today his
biology teacher forcefully claimed that evolution is a fact, that it is based on credible
scientific research. Alex doesn’t want to appear to be foolish. ‘After all,’ he says to
himself, ‘if scientists have proved evolution to be true, who am I to question them?’
Can you identify with this scenario? Perhaps for all your life, you’ve believed what
the Bible says: “God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1) Yet, recently
people have been trying to convince you that creation is a myth and that evolution is a
fact. Should you believe them? Why question evolution?
Two reasons to question evolution:
1. Scientists don’t agree on evolution. Despite decades of research, scientists have
yet to come up with an explanation for evolution that they all can agree on.
To think about: If scientists can’t agree on evolution—and they’re supposed to be
the experts—are you wrong to question the theory?—Psalm 10:4.
2. It matters what you believe. “If life came about by accident, then our lives—and
all the things in our universe—are meaningless,” says a boy named Zachary. He
has a point. After all, if evolution were true, life would not seem to have any lasting
purpose. (1 Corinthians 15:32) On the other hand, if creation is true, we can find
satisfying answers to questions about the purpose of life and what the future
holds.—Jeremiah 29:11.
To think about: How would knowing the truth about evolution and creation make
a difference in your life?—Hebrews 11:1.
Questions to consider
CLAIM: ‘Everything in the universe came as a result of a random big bang.’
 Who or what caused the big bang?
 Which makes more sense—that everything came from nothing or that everything
came from something or someone?
CLAIM: ‘Humans evolved from animals.’
 If humans evolved from animals—from apes, for example—why is there such a
huge gap between the intellectual abilities of humans and those of apes? *
 Why are even the most “basic” forms of life so incredibly complex? *
CLAIM: ‘Evolution is a proven fact.’
 Has the person making this claim investigated the evidence for himself?
 How many people believe in evolution simply because they have been told that all
intelligent people believe in it?

B. Your belief in creation matters. D. We have to question to avoid confusion.

A. By employing appeal to credibility (Ethos)
B. By employing appeal to logic (Logos)
C. By employing appeal to emotion (Pathos)
D. Both A and B
