Count of Monte Cristo in Philippine Society
The novel basically delves on a society of conspiracy and injustices.
Consequently, it tells us the price we have to pay for being illiterate
and uneducated. The Count of Monte Cristo made me realize of the
very big importance of education to society. In another way, it relates

Dantes, was tricked to deliver the dangerous letter of Napoleon
Bonaparte. The main character doesnt know how to read and write,
thus, he wasnt able to know the content of the letter, which was then
a plan of rebellion by Bonaparte. This inability has led him to dangers
of life. He then was faced in a situation he never expected to come into
his simple living. The situation faced by Edmund is evident enough to

in facilities, schools, and teachers. As a consequence, only the
privileged ones are receiving the proper and quality education. In
