VALDIVIESO, Antonio de -- A Stan Klos Edited Biography
VALDES, José Manuel, Peruvian physician, born in
Lima about 1780; died there in 1840. He was of Negro parentage, and studied in
the convent of San Ildefonso under the protection of an Augustinian friar, but
chose the medical profession, as the church, the army, and the civil service,
were closed to him by the prejudices of the time. In 1807 he was graduated in
medicine in the University of San Marcos, where he read one of his three
dissertations that were afterward printed in Madrid.
Besides practicing his profession, he also wrote poetry,
most of which is mystic or religious. He published
"Disertación sobre el Cancro Uterino" (Madrid, 1815); "Disertación sobre la
Meningitis de los Niños" (1815); "Disertación sobre la Disentería" (1815);
"Poesias sagradas" (Lima, 1819 ) ; "La Fe de Cristo triunfante en Lima" (1822)"
"Poesias espirituales, escritas a beneficio y para el uso de las personas
seneillas y piadosas" (1833); and "Salterio Peruano, e Parafrasis de los ciento
cinguenta Salmos de David" (1836).
