Manuel Bernabé y Hernández (February 27, 1890 – November 29, 1960) was a Filipino journalist, politician, linguist, and poet in Spanish and Latin languages.

Another book by Bernabe that also contains his writings is the Perfil de Cresta, which includes his translation of Omar Khayyam's Rubaiyat and Claro M. Recto's portico.

He was later appointed head of the National Library of the Philippines in the 1950s, where he translated Marcelo H. del Pilar's writings to Tagalog.

[1] As early as 1913, Bernabe had already won three awards from three different organizations for his works Himno al Sagrado Corazon de Jesus, El Zapote, and España en Filipinas.

Because of his efforts to use the Spanish language as a medium of writing, he was conferred the award El Yugo y las Flechas in 1940 and Order of Isabella the Catholic in 1953.
