A Spanish historian, poet, and statesman (1332-1407). In great favor with the Castilian kings Peter the Cruel, Henry II., John I., and Henry III., he was invested with the highest dignities of State. His "Chronicles of the Kings of Castile" contains the history of that kingdom from 1350 to 1396. Of his poetical works, the "Rhyme-Work of the Palace", a didactic poem on social and political questions, stands foremost.
