Pedro Alejandro Paterno y de Vera Ignacio[2][note 1] (February 27, 1857 – April 26, 1911)[note 2][3] was a Filipino politician infamous for being a turncoat. He was also a poet and a novelist.[4]
His intervention on behalf of the Spanish led to the signing of the Pact of Biak-na-Bato on December 14, 1897, an account of which he published in 1910. Among his other works include the first novel written by a native Filipino, Ninay (1885), and the first Filipino collection of poems in Spanish, Sampaguitas y otras poesías varias ("Jasmines and Other Various Poems"), published in Madrid in 1880.[5]
