Abstract
The author unearths new fundamental data about Cosme Pérez, the most celebrated and famous actor of the 17th century, about his biography - mainly his tudelan origin and his birth certifícate - and his family. This article includes the transcription of such a document, looked for in vain by Cotarelo y Mori, who assumed that Pérez should have been born in Madrid.
El autor aporta nuevos datos fundamentales acerca de la biografía de Cosme Pérez, Juan Rana y de su familia. Pérez fue el actor más famoso y festejado del siglo XVII, protagonista de entremeses escritos especialmente para él. El estudio reproduce la partida de nacimiento del actor, rastreada sin éxito por Cotarelo y Mori, quien conjeturó erróneamente que Pérez era madrileño.
