Historian Zeus Salazar classifies Rizal as a heróe‚ shaped by Western sensibilities and consciousness‚ as he was‚ in many ways‚ separate from the people. The mythic proportions of his character made it impossible for people to relate to him. He became a symbol‚ and more often than not‚ the only hero‚ of the revolution [2]. Nothing new about Rizal
