アブストラクト:
Priceless since the time they were made in the late 19th century Jose Rizal’s surviving manuscripts are preserved in the National Library of the Philippines and the Lopez Museum. In 1961 the manuscripts of: the Noli me tangere, El Filibusterismo and Ultimo Adios were stolen from the National Library and held for ransom. The sensational theft and equally incredible story behind their recovery obscures deeper issues of access and preservation that impact historical research in the Philippines.
