Besides being a distinguished soldier, he acted as a moderating See also:political See also:influence and, when appointed corregidor of See also:Toledo, was active in protecting the converted See also:Jews from popular resentment. His will was signed on the 31st of May 1490, and he is known to have died before the 16th of See also:February 1491. He inherited the See also:literary See also:taste of his See also:uncle Santillana, and was greatly esteemed in his own age; but his reputation was afterwards eclipsed by that of his nephew Jorge Manrique (q.v.), whose Coplas were continually reproduced. Gomez Manrique's poems were not printed 6111885, . when they were edited by See also:Antonio Paz y Melia. They at once revealed him to be a .poet of eminent merit, and it seems certain that his Consejos, addressed to Diego Arias de See also:Avila, inspired the more famous Coplas of his nephew. His didactic verses are modelled upon those of Santillana, and his satires are somewhat coarse in thought and expression; but his See also:place in the See also:history of Spanish literature is secure as the earliest Spanish dramatist whose name has reached posterity. He wrote the Representaci4n del nascimiento de Nuestro Senor, a See also:play on the See also:Passion, and two mantes, or interludes, played at See also:court.
