The poem 1896(Cry Freedom) was written by Aurelio S. Alvero
Aurelio Alvero: traitor or patriotby Grant K. Goodman Historians are traditionally fascinated by "neglected" figures as well as by what some would term "losers". Aurelio Alvero (1913-58) is, in my opinion, one who can be classified in both of these categories. Filipinos today probably have never heard of him or, if they have, most likely know him simply as a convicted traitor. Yet his brilliance is undeniable, and his burning if often erratic passions make him a person whose unfortunate fate continues to intrigue and attract me. Moreover, Alvero's undeniable literary prowess which led ultimately to a seemingly unquenchable if unfortunately quixotic political ambition reminds one of such a contemporary literary-political "loser" as Peru's Mario Vargas Llosa or even perhaps America's own Gore Vidal. While this paper cannot deal with Alvero's remarkable literary achievements in both English and Tagalog, it will attempt to record and to examine his peculiar political career. To some few contemporary Filipinos, Alvero is still seen as "the poet of the people", "the spokesman of all Filipinos with a vision", "an ideal nationalist committed to his country's cause". To most who know of him today, however, the verdict of the immediate postwar Philippine People's Court which found Alvero guilty of collaboration with the Japanese marks him as the prototype traitor who sold out his country to the enemy. His years in prison, 1945-47 and 1950-52, again despite their stunning literary productivity, have sadly reduced his repute among his countrymen still more. Aurelio Alvero, also known after 1945 by his self-generated pen name Magtanggul Asa, was born on 15 October 1913 in Tondo, Manila.(1) He was the son of Emilio Alvero y de Vera, painter, art-glass artist and interior decorator, and Rosa Sevilla y Tolentino, writer, social worker and educator and founder of the Instituto de Mujeres, one of the oldest schools for women in the Philippines. Alvero studied at the Centro Educativo y Instructivo and completed his primary education at the Instituto de Mujeres. He later graduated from the Ateneo de Manila high school and then went on to study law and education simultaneously at the University of Santo Tomas. He received the A.A. degree in 1933, the B.S.E. in 1935 and his law degree cum laude in 1937. Among his honours at university were the following: 1931-32 Gold Medal, Law Oratorical Contest Society Editor, The Varsitarian 1932-33 Silver Medal, UST Liberal Arts - Education Debate Assistant Literary Editor, The Varsitarian Editor, The Thomasian Rector Tamayo Gold Medal for Poetry 1933-34 Bronze Medal, Law Oratorical Contest Poetry Editor, The Thomasian 1934-35 Editor, The Spectrum Representative, Law Student Council Gold Medal, Law Bicentennial Oratorical Contest Laureate Crown and Gold Medal, Law Bicentennial Ode Contest President, Education Seniors' Association The above honours clearly identify Alvero as a superb orator, debater and poet. At the age of 21 he published his first book of poems entitled Moonshadows on the Water. In the preface John Jefferson Siler, Alvero's English professor at Santo Tomas, wrote: Here are some of the best lyrics written in the Philippines. There are several poems in this book that any English writer could feel pleasure in signing his name to.... I do not hesitate to say "1896" is one of the finest flowerings of lyric patriotism in the entire range of English poetry. Alvero's poetry was praised unstintingly by the critic Cornelio Faigao of the Philippines Free Press, as well as by such literary arbiters as Alfred Litiatco of the Graphic and Federico Mangahas of the Tribune.At various times Alvero taught English at San Beda College, and Tagalog and national history at U.S.T. meanwhile lecturing at the Instituto de Mujeres on whatever his mother might need from year to year. Along with his evident literary ability, Alvero nurtured his political concerns. He was one of the early founders of the Young Philippines, a fringe nationalist party of the 1930s. Interestingly, on 18 May 1934 that group sponsored a debate on the subject "Resolved That the Political Salvation of the World Lies in Dictatorship Rather Than Democracy", and one of the two speakers for the affirmative was Aurelio Alvero.(2) In 1937 Alvero entered electoral politics for the first and only time running for the post of Manila Councilor. Although he did not win the election, his idealism and oratorical skills seem to have made a lasting impression on his fellow Filipinos. In fact, it was Commonwealth President Manuel L. Quezon who subsequently appointed Alvero as a councilor of the city of Manila.

The poem 1896(Cry Freedom) was written by Aurelio S. Alvero
The setting of the story "1896" by Aurelio Alvero is in the Philippines during the period leading up to the Philippine Revolution against Spanish colonial rule in 1896. The story revolves around the events and characters involved in the struggle for independence and portrays the patriotism and courage of the Filipino people during that time.
In his poem 1896 Aurelio Alvero celebrates the outbreak of the 1896 Katipunan popular revolution against the governing Spanish Authorities in the Philippines, which was led by Andres Bonifacio.Alvero's poem has no political or ethical content, it is only a list of all the various groups of natives and labourers who shout FREEDOM in support of the popular protest. Alvero probably intended his poem to suggest that the Katipunan party enjoyed universal and uncritical support from all Philippinos.The revolution Alvero celebrates historically transferred the Philippines from being a de jure Spanish dependency to being a de facto American colony. (Roosevelt's brutality in the Philippines was so crass even Mark Twain protested it). Later the islands were handed over to the Japanese (a process in which Alvero assisted).The message of the poem is that the 1896 revolutio was a glorious achievement (because it commanded universal popular support) even though the freedom it gained for the Philippines was no more than a change of colonial master.The poem is grossly sentimental and historically dishonest - two virtues which have ensured its enduring popularity with forces favouring control and appeasement in the Republic ever since.
