As Master General

As Master General, he set up the Friars Pilgrim missionaries.[2] He set the trend towards Thomism as central to Dominican theology;[3] and campaigned against that of Durandus of Saint-Pourçain.[4] He asked Bernard Gui to compose a replacement for the Golden Legend of Jacob de Voragine.[5]

As Archbishop

On 15 July 1317, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope John XXII as Archbishop of Santiago de Compostela.[6][7] On 30 April 1318, he was consecrated bishop by Niccolò Alberti, Cardinal-Bishop of Ostia e Velletri.[6] He took until 1322 to take possession as Archbishop, there being a Galician rival.[8] He had to reside at some time at Noia,[9] where he held a synod.[10] His takeover was a violent affair.[11] He served as Archbishop of Santiago de Compostela until his death on 20 Oct 1330.[6] While bishop, he was the principal consecrator of Gonzalo Núñez de Novoa, Bishop of Orense (1320) and Rodrigo Ibáñez, Bishop of Lugo (1320).[6] He is remembered also for the building work he initiated on the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, and relics.[12] One of the cathedral towers bears his name.
