Rui Fernandes de Santiago Nationality: Galega Biographical Note: Galician troubadour, active in the second quarter of the 13th century. The attributive item in his cantigas de amigo tell us that he was a cleric, and the one in his love songs that he was natural of Santiago de Compostela. He seems to have frequented the court of Alfonso X, a monarch that would have him appointed chaplain. We have, moreover, his will, wrought in Salamanca and dated 1273. However, if the Rui Fernandes located by Ron Fernandez1, and who was, in 1284, a monk of the monastery of S. Paio de Altealtares in Santiago, is our author, then he may have passed away many years after the aforementioned will. In his recent ediction of Rui Fernandes' work, Arias Freixedo2 reviews all the data concerning his life, namely his stay in Salamanca.
