Ribeiro, Bernardim (1482–1552)

Portuguese writer. He studied law at Lisbon and in 1524 became secretary to King
John III. He introduced the Renaissance pastoral to Portuguese literature, both
through several eclogues (the first in Portuguese) and also through the popular
chivalric romance
Minina e Moça (1554), which was published posthumously and
probably contains passages by another writer).
