PÉREZ di VALENZA, JAIME. - Augustinian theologian, b. ca. 1408, d. 30 Aug. 1490. A religious in Valencia (1436), he taught theology at that University from 1459. Having become titular bishop of Christopolis, he administered the dioceses of Valencia and Cartagena in the name of Rodrigo Borgia from 1468 until his death, which occurred with a reputation for holiness. In 1550 St. Thomas of Villanova erected a more worthy tomb for him, and in 1610 the blessed Ribera began the process of beatification.
He wrote: In 150 psalmos expositio; In Canticum canticorum; In cantica omnia ferialia; Super Magnificat; Tract. contra Iudaeos, and others, all printed by the author and subsequently more than thirty times the last, in 2 vols. [Madrid 1749]), highly esteemed for their clarity, richness of content and unction.
