About this ebook
Essays from ancient alchemical writers that faithfully instructed all disciples of the sopho-spagyric art how the philosopher's stone could be found and held.
This work represents a distinctive school of alchemy—it belonged to a period that had inherited a bitter experience of the failures, impostures, and misery surrounding the "Magnum Opus" and its mystical quest. The treatises contained in this volume are by the authors of historical legend: John de Meung, Nicolas Flamel, Basil Valentine, Eirenaeus Philalethes, Helvetius, Michael Maier, Michael Sendivogius, and Nicholas Barnaud Delphinas. Illustrated.
