The work is a critical edition of the Jewish physician/philosopher Daniel de Ávila Gallego's Diálogo del colorado, a study on scarlet fever. Ávila Gallego was a Sephardic Jew who studied at the University of Salamanca, and settled in Thessalonikē, where he wrote this work. Preserved in a single aljamiado copy in the Library Ets Haim in Amsterdam, it is one of the few existing Sephardic works prior to the eighteenth century.

Romanized Ladino text with Spanish notes and commentary.
