The 'Controversies' resulted in being so interesting that it caused a celebrated anecdote. In the German protestant physician Johannes Kraft Johannis Cratonis in its Latin form who owned a copy of the first edition of decided that they deserved to be made known and thought of making another edition. But he didn t have and couldn t get any information -or so he said- about who Valles was other than what figured in the book published 25 year earlier.

Several small scattered stains 2x2cm. Les Amours de Paille , a comedy written in collaboration with Poupart-Davyl, was a failure. No trivia or quizzes yet.
So he decided to publish it without asking the author about whom he didn t even know whether he was still alive but he did so correcting and improving the text s style which eventuated in becoming not only a criticism of the Latin in which it was written and a contradiction of some of the propositions it included but he also change those he dissented to the most without being timid in criticising the author. The translation was printed the following year in Frankfurt at the press of Wechel s inheritor.
His surprise would came immediately when he received news that Valles was alive that he had sent the revised and expanded text to a printer Plantino of Antwerp and that the latter had refused to publish the third edition precisely because of the book that had just been published in Germany. That is how Valls learnt of the impression of which he hadn t been asked for permission.
He was left with no other option than to resort to a peninsular press to publish the updates to his 'Controversies'1.
When he sent it to print Valles complemented it with a new text 'Commentary on the first five books of the simple medicines' by Galen edited for the first time2. The impression of the work was planned to be published jointly with Controversies with these being printed first-colophon of then the novelty -colophon of and arranging a combined title page for both of them.
The common title page is responsible for the attribution of the third edition of the Controversies to instead of to Las Controversias de Francisco Valles y la medicina renacentista'. Csic is indispensable. Morejn mentions and in Iberian Books one from is mentioned and JM Piero says that it was published in We couldn t find any of these anywhere.

Valles like Erasmo was contrary to the transmission of the dogmatic knowledge and to the scholastic method and again like Erasmo believed that most of the teachers of his time limited their teachings to the repetition of doctrines assuming they were true and then made their students repeat them. Both of these men had the worst possible opinions of the functioning of the university education of their times. In Valles opinion Medicine required a comparison of what had been said about different diseases and their possible therapies with the symptoms and the reactions observed by oneself in real cases of the same disease both when the observation ratified those compiled in the texts of Hippocrates by Galen and of the previous chroniclers especially Avicenn and especially when those observations reported aspects that were not described or in particular when there were contradictions.
In that way and in opposition to Medical texts that were limited to interpreting the assertions of the classic authors worthy books had to include commentaries that stating this set of evidence exposed the conclusions that could be assumed by taking into account the observations that other physicians of these times had made known on those diseases and physiological manifestations.
So from the heuristical point of view and for the preponderance that he gave to the value of clinical observation Valles proved to be more a follower of Hippocratics than of Galen.
That s why Valles faced both legacies by undertaking the task of once again translating the original texts from Greek to Latin and discussing them following the humanist pattern model that he was so demanding of in both the exercise of scientific as well as in educational work. A clear example is this first edition printed in of his translation and commentaries of the book of the Aphorisms and of the booklet 'On Aliment' by Hippocrates1.
The translation of the brief 'On Aliment 'Treaty is particularly relevant as during the Middle Ages it had been given less attention because at the time Galen had claimed that it was not Hippocrates work. This marginalization is at the origin of the scarce existence of Latin versions and thus enabled Valles to say that he was bringing it out of the dark. In fact and no doubt due to our lack of skills we could only find one version earlier than Valles ; the one that Janus Cornarius included without commenting on its content in his editions of 'Hippocratis omnium longe principis opera quad apud nos extant omnia' since And he has prepared a book in Latin on the Aphorisms of Hippocrates which was very useful within the Medical faculty and on which besides the effort exerted he has spent money on it; and so the students of said faculty can make use of it he has requested from us for a permit so the book can be sold and printed.
