Alonso de Villegas Selvago, also known as Selvago, which may also have been a second surname, of Genovese origin (Toledo, 1533 – ib., January 23, 1603)[1] was a Spanish ecclesiastic and writer.
As a student and later professor of theology at the universidad de Toledo, was a chaplain in his cathedral and baptized in the church of San Sebastián and in San Marcos in the same city, where he resided for almost his entire life.[2]
His only known works include Comedia llamada Selvagia: en que se introduzen los amores de un cavallero llamado Selvago con una ilustre dama dicha Ysabela, efetuados por Dolosina, alcahueta famosa (Toledo: Joan Ferrer, 1554),[3] one Life of San Isidro Labrador (Madrid, 1592),[4] one Life of San Tirso (Toledo, 1592) and a Flos sanctorum. One of Villegas’s subjects in the Flos sanctorum was Saint Irene based on a popular legend in the Iberian Peninsula called La margarita del Tajo.[5] He also drew from Plutarch‘s work for the story detailing the death of Pan when Jesus was born.[6]
