Noli me tangere

A separate article treats the novel, Noli Me Tangere, by Jose Rizal.


Noli me tangere is the Latin version of the words spoken by Jesus to Mary Magdalen, meaning "Do not touch me" (the quotation appears in John 20:17). The words were a popular trope in Gregorian chant, and the moment in which they were spoken was a popular subject for paintings.

Its modern English meaning is "Do not disturb/interfere".
