 Despite the "Consell de Cent's" refusal to accept the concession issued by the King to found an "estudi general", on 10 January 1401, Martín founded the "Estudi General" of Medicine in Barcelona under his royal prerogative, granting it the same privileges as those enjoyed by the University of Montpellier.In another document, signed in Valencia on 9 May 1402, King Martin sought to promote the "Estudi General" of Medicine with the appointment of a number of teachers of the liberal arts, without which the study of medicine was virtually useless.From that day forth, the "Estudi" was known as the "Estudi" of Medicine and the Arts.
