Guillem de Cabestany

He is probably the son of Arnau de Cabestany, a noble of Roussillon, and a vassal in relation with the lords of Castell Rosselló.

Cabestany itself is a fief located immediately next to the east of Castell Rosselló and southwest of Canet (a future viscounty).

[2] Versions of this legend appear later in Giovanni Boccaccio's Decameron (1348–53), Stendhal's On Love (1822), and in Ezra Pound's Canto IV (1924–25).

Seremonda is thought to have been married two or three times, first to Raimon of Castell Rosselló, to another husband in 1210, and then to Aymar de Mosset.

[4] Medievalist John E. Matzke has identified at least fourteen different versions of the "eaten heart" [fr] legend in several different literary traditions.
