ALBORNOZ, GIL ALVAREZ DE , Spanish cardinal, was born at Cuenca early in the 14th century. He was the son of Gil Alvarez de Albornoz and of Dona Teresa de Luna,
sister
  of Kimeno de Luna, archbishop of Toledo. He was educated at Saragosa, while his uncle was
bishop
  of that see, and studied law at Toulouse. The powerful influence of his family opened him a public career early in
life
 . He was made archdeacon of Calatrava, and became a member of the king's council while
young
 . In 133 7 he was chosen archbishop of Toledo in succession to his uncle by the favour of the king,
Alphonso
  XI. At the battle of Tarifa he fought against a
great
  invasion from Africa in 1340, and at thedes Xirchenstaates, by Dr H. J. Wurm (1892).
