"The following has been re-recorded from an old worn phonograph record of which only two were ever made. The master and one copy. Both are old and worn and could only be made audible again on a modern powerful machine. Audibly enough to be transcribed on a soundtrack and herewith partly made public for the first time. Perhaps two or three more playings would erase the last traces of sound. It will give you an inside of the life, thinking and habitation of an alchemist, not of the Middle Ages but of our own present century". [#ABEL2].

"The Bembine tablet, or the Mensa Isiaca is a bronze tablet with silver and enamel inlay, probably of 1st Century Roman origin. Although it depicts Egyptian themes, it is not Egyptian in origin. In the 17th century, Athanasius Kircher attempted to interpret it as a key to the Egyptian hieroglyphics, unsuccessfully. Occultists have long sought esoteric meaning in the tablet: Westcott, Eliphas Levi, and Manly P. Hall all believed that it was the key to the Tarot. The tablet is currently on display in the Museum of Antiquities in Turin". [#ABEL2].

"Hermetism is becoming more and more popular. But how many people will be able to say much about what are the ideas that can be found within the Hermetic texts? I decided to take a few subjects and work them out with quotes from different texts. These texts are not by one author or one group of authors, so they may contradict eachother. This does not matter, because the underlying philosophy is always the same. For this comparison of concepts I used the Corpus Hermeticum, the Asclepius, the Hermetic texts from the Nag Hammadi library, the Stobaeus and Tertulianus fragments and De Castigatione Animae. For more information about Hermetic texts see my article on this subject. Of most the texts I have Dutch translations, and of almost all I also have English translations. For the quotes I mostly used the very literal translation of Walter Scott (1855-1925), sometimes I prefered my Dutch translations by Gilles Quispel and Roelof van den Broek (Q/VdB in the text)".

How would the Emerald Tablet read if it were written today? First of all, we would have to gear it toward an audience without much time for any background philosophizing, and of course, we would be competing with television for their attention. Then, we would have to at least acknowledge the "advances" made in scientific knowledge. Contemporary science tells us that the universe is made up of energy, matter, and light. Those would be what the alchemists called Sulfur, Salt, and Mercury, respectively. According to Einsteins equation (E=mc2), energy and matter can be transformed into one another through the constant of light. In alchemy, Sulfur and Salt are transformed into one another through the intermediary of Mercury. It looks like, if that little "c" in Einsteins equation really stood for "consciousness" instead of "light," there would be no difference at all between physics and alchemy. Let us assume that consciousness is light, after all. In that case, an Emerald Tablet for the 21st Century would look something like this:. [#ABEL2].

"An Arabic translation of a text entitled "Keys of Wisdom," by the famous fourth century alchemist Zosimos, has been found in an Alchemy book written by a twelveth century Kurd, named Al-Tughra'i. The book starts with a discussion of the "four elements" (fire, air, water, and earth) and the "four natures" (hot, cold, moist, and dry), and continues with their quantitative estimation. This is followed by a determination of their ratios, which is needed to moderate the properties of metals and to form the elixirs used in transmutation. Although today's chemists disagree with most of these concepts, they must marvel at some of the ideas found in the present text. For example, Zosimos correctly understood the relationship between heat and movement, and in a remarkable statement he explains why, during distillation, vapors rise against gravity, by saying: "Motion is due to heat for without heat there would be no motion." This statement is true today and is taught in most thermodynamics text books. Alchemists also distinguished between distillation, and "smoking" (pyrolysis), and recognized the importance of the first in purification. Furthermore, they correctly believed that the physical properties of substances are directly related to their chemical composition and developed a highly sophisticated system to characterize compounds by means of nine tastes, three smells, and a multitude of colors".

94. The Allegory of Merlin. [http://www.alchemywebsite.com/merlin.html]. Access date: 17 Jun 2004.

"In the alchemical tradition we find a number of allegories which involve the transformation of a King, the Duenech and Merlini allegories being among the earliest. I recently uncovered an English translation of the Allegory of Merlin in a 17th century manuscript in the British Library (MS Sloane 3506, f.74-75), which sparked off my interest in the piece so I have decided to include it here. The allegory (minus the Merlin' title) exists in a 14-15th century manuscript in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris (MS. Lat. 14005), and it was published as 'Merlini-Allegoria, profundissimum Philosophici Lapidis Arcanum perfecte continens', in the alchemical compendium Artis Auriferiae, I, 420-424, Basel, 1593). The association with the Celtic Merlin' figure is obscure and there are no internal references (nor indeed any links with the Merlin mythos), which might explain why this name is associated with the allegory. It shows the death and resurrection of the King. The King drinks a special water which kills him, and through drying off this water a transmutation occurs and the King is brought back to life in a more energetic form. This allegory has obvious links with the Duenech allegory (which was published in the vast alchemical compendium, Theatrum Chemicum III, p.756-757, Ursel, 1602).". [#ABEL2].

Although lengthy, Adam McLean's introduction to this page is especially interesting. "Elsewhere on this site I have included a transcription of an admission of membership into a Rosicrucian Society organised from London by Dr Sigismund Bacstrom. Bacstrom had been initiated into a Rosicrucian society by the Comte de Chazal on the Island of Mauritius in 1791. The Comte de Chazal was connected with the French stream of Rosicrucianism probably linking back to the Comte de St Germain. The text of the admission of membership was taken from the copy made by a Scotsman, Alexander Tilloch, contained in the Ferguson collection, and it has appended to it the following most interesting section of Rosicrucian Aphorisms and Process, which I transcribe in its entirety. This process seems of great value as it is in the tradition of earlier alchemical texts, concealing its prima materia and yet explaining all the subsequent stages in great detail, while using the exact chemical terminology of the 18th century. Thus, for example, it has precise measurements of temperature for the stages of the process, using Fahrenheit's thermometer, and precise measurements of quantities. Such quantitative details are often missing in early alchemical texts. It also uses a great deal of Hebrew nomenclature and parallels with the creation story in Genesis. It is remarkable that this work, written at the end of the 18th century, should remain in the same archetypal mold as works of some three centuries earlier, and this I believe shows us the inner integrity of this alchemical process of the red and the white ttones through the nigredo, putrefaction and peacock's tail stages, with the final potentisation through multiplication of the tincture. This process, a source of alchemical inspiration for half a millenium and more, contains mysteries that have still to be revealed and I hope that this further piece of material might help to make this process more clear."

Introductory page to the 22 plates. Urls lead to then individual plates. "The Splendor Solis is one of the most beautiful of illuminated alchemical manuscripts. The earliest version, considered to be that now in the Kupferstichkabinett in the Prussian State Museum in Berlin, is dated 1532-35, and was made in the form of a medieval manuscript and illuminated on vellum, with decorative borders like a book of hours, beautifully painted and heightened with gold. The later copies in London, Kassel, Paris and Nuremberg are equally fine.

The work itself consists of a sequence of 22 elaborate images, set in ornamental borders and niches. The symbolic process shows the classical alchemical death and rebirth of the king, and incorporates a series of seven flasks, each associated with one of the planets. Within the flasks a process is shown involving the transformation of bird and animal symbols into the Queen and King, the white and the red tincture. This echoes the Pretiosissimum Donum Dei sequence which is probably earlier, dating from the 15th century. Although the style of the Splendor Solis illuminations suggest an earlier date, they are quite clearly of the 16th century. The following images were provided by Andre Le Sage". [#ABEL2].

22 illuminated full-colour plates of the Splendor Solis, and 51 full-colour illustrations. "This book is a striking and unique contribution to the resurgence of interest in alchemy for its way of representing the phenomenology of creative experience. Transformation of the Psyche is organized around 22 illuminated paintings from the early Renaissance alchemical manuscript the Splendor Solis, and is further illustrated by over 50 colour figures. The images of the Splendor Solis are possibly the most beautiful and evocative alchemical paintings to be found anywhere, and they are widely known to students of alchemy. Jung reproduced several Splendor Solis images in his works, yet prior to this book no one has explored the symbolism of the paintings as a series in relation to the process of depth psychological transformation. This book is the first scholarly study of the paintings in their entirety, and of the mythological and historical allusions contained within the images. Transformation of the Psyche does not simply explain or analyze the pictures, but invites the reader to participate in the creative and transforming process evoked by these images. Transformation of the Psyche is a truly unique book that will be of immense value and interest to analysts and psychotherapists, as well as scholars of mediaeval and renaissance intellectual history and students of spiritual disciplines. Contents: Introduction: Alchemy and Modern Depth Psychology. The Ancient Roots of Alchemy. Alchemy in Classical Greece and Post-Classical Alexandria. Arabic Alchemy. Alchemy in Medieval and Renaissance Europe. Paracelsus and the Nature of the Soul. The Splendor Solis. The First Series (11 plates): A Sick Sun and a Healthy Sun. Setting out on a Journey.

Sherwood, author pictures and biographies, and most excitingly, a selection of full colour plates from the book, which, when clicked on, will reveal the image in greater detail and an extract of text from the book demonstrating the analysis of the symbolism and allusions within".

"The aim of this article is to explore the unresearched body of manuscript texts on alchemy in medieval English (fifteenth century). More specifically, it is concerned with texts that are commonly attributed to the famous medieval scholar Albertus Magnus. Taking as its starting point the work done by Pearl Kibre on Latin alchemical writings attributed to Albertus, the article shows that the English manuscript texts (some thirty) are all related to one text in the Latin corpus, the Semita recta. (Kibre lists about thirty texts in Latin.) However, the English texts display varying affinities to the Semita recta: there are literal translations as well as major adaptations, and there are texts that appear to exploit the authority of the Semita recta for advancing completely unrelated discussions. It is also evident that the early English translators and redactors of alchemical texts were particularly interested in practical aspects of alchemy: many of the texts exhibit an emphasis on practical details, whereas the theoretical parts have been excised. Furthermore, the article demonstrates that although the English manuscripts derive from a pseudo-Albertan text, most of them do not contain an overt attribution to Albertus. It is thus unclear whether Albertus's renown as an alchemist played a significant part in the circulation of the texts in a vernacular context.". [*].

"John French (1616?-1657) was an English physician who served as an army doctor. In addition to The Art of Distillation, he published a book on the mineral waters at the Yorkshire spa and a translation of Michael Sendivogius' alchemical text, A new light of alchymie (1650). He may also be the editor, "J.F.," of a 1650 translation of The Divine Pymander of Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus, a hermetic text of interest to alchemists. The Art of Distillation is representative of English chemistry of this period. It has been suggested that French was a follower of a Paracelsian school of chemistry -- one which was skeptical of alchemical traditions and more intent on seeking medical uses for chemical compounds".

The introduction to the transcription of Newton's manuscript Of Natures obvious laws & processes in vegetation. "Usually called Of Natures obvious laws & processes in vegetation after the first words in the text, the Dibner Collection MS. 1031B is an eleven-page tract representing Newton's attempt to provide a synopsis of his early alchemical reading, and to come up with what is, essentially, a "theory of everything," namely a physical theory that unifies and accounts for all known natural phenomena. The English text is followed in the manuscript by a short text in Latin, written upside-down and from the other end of the fascicle. A distinct treatise, the Latin section of the text begins with the phrase "Humores minerales continuo decidunt," and is possibly a preliminary and fragmentary working out of the ideas that Newton would develop further in the English part of the manuscript.

6 ff. The folation is the same as that used by B.J.T. Dobbs, in which each half of the three folded sheets is treated as a separate folio. The manuscript consists of three folded sheets ordered consecutively, the first sheet containing fols. 1-2, the second 3-4, and the third 5-6. The first 4 fols. (sheets 1 and 2) contain a consistent pattern of wormholes that are not present in fols. 5 and 6 (sheet 3). The third folded sheet contains the Latin section of the MS., which begins upsidedown on 6v and continues up from the bottom on 6r, where it meets the English text coming down.. [#ABEL2].

"This is, to my knowledge, the first English translation of the Mirror of the Philosophers from the original German as published in the Aurei Velleris (1708). I have not translated the entire work, which includes what we might call "glosses" on the illustrations and captions by traditional pseudonymous alchemical authors like Arnoldus, Hermes, and Thomas Aquinas. Rather, presented here are the original illustrations and captions in the series. There are numerous versions of this alchemical series, including one in the British Library, British Library MS. Harley 6453, which is transcribed and available online via Adam McLeans Alchemy Library. Other versions of this work are known as the Pretiosissimum Donum Dei, or "Most Precious Gift of God," and it would appear that the English version in the British Library is a rough translation of the captions from the German, albeit with almost entirely different glosses. I suggest this likelihood because of certain minor translation errorsthe original German caption to illustration eight refers in fact to the "Dark Ascent," which in the English version becomes "The Dark House." Such a change almost certainly came about due to translation from the German. This is a classic alchemical text, including not only enigmatic text, but a widely known series of illustrations as well, and as such is an excellent example of the ways that alchemists sought to convey their art" - Arthur Versluis.

"This week I got Adam Maclean's translation of the first book of "The book of Distillation" by Heironymous Braunschweig. He was based in Strasbourg, born around 1450 and died around 1512. Therefore, this book is definitely authentic for the end of the Wars of the Roses, and undoubtedly contains much that was commonplace before that time. However what makes it doubly interesting is that the book was in fact in three parts. The first part, which I now have, concerns the apparatus. The last two parts are about plants to be used as medicines and how to prepare and distill them, and the same for the various herbs that were in use at the period. These last two parts were not translated and re-printed by Maclean". [#ABEL2].

"Johann Heinrich Cohausen (16651750) was a physician and well-known author in the Germanies, France, and England. He was best known for medical satire such as the Pica Nasi, a Latin parody on snuff in which Apollo ordered Mercury to confiscate the noses of snuff-takers. When the satyrs returned them, the desperate victims grabbed the wrong noses and were unrecognizable. The subject of this article however is Cohausen's last and most famous medical satire, his Hermippus redivivus (1742), a treatise on the prolongation of life. Studies of Cohausen and the Hermippus have been largely antiquarian; the only scholarly works are a French dissertation concerning his medical biography done in 1900 and a short German bibliographic study. Because Cohausen has been primarily known for medical satire, his large number of serious treatises on iatrochemistry and medicine, which served as the basis for his more humorous works, have been largely unexamined. This paper will thus demonstrate that Cohausen's Hermippus and its comedic presentation of longevity had a profound reliance on earlier scholarly works of his that analysed the theories of the seventeenth-century chymist and physician Jean Baptiste van Helmont (15771634). In particular, Cohausen utilized van Helmont's belief that volatile salts (salts that had an odour or that decomposed readily on heating) composed the vital spirit or the breath of both animals and plants; it was these volatile salts in the breath, more prevalent in the young, which Cohausen argued would extend life's duration. Cohausen's ideas in the Hermippus were also influenced by Sanctorius' (15611636) studies of ambient air and bodily secretions, and to a lesser degree by the Leiden physician Hermann Boerhaave (16681738)".

"The influential 'Golden Chain of Homer', written or edited by Anton Josef Kirchweger, was first issued at Frankfurt and Leipzig in four German editions in 1723, 1728, 1738 and 1757. A Latin version was issued at Frankfurt in 1762, and further German editions followed. In the late eighteenth century Sigismund Bacstrom made a rather poor translation of the work into English. Part of this was published in the Theosophical Society Journal 'Lucifer' in 1891. A number of manuscript copies of this translation have survived. Although the translation is more a summary than an exact translation of the original, it is an important late work on alchemy, so I have decided to include this translation here, despite its imperfections. I am indebted to Jerry Bujas for making an initial transcription." Also at http://www.rexresearch.com/alchemy/kirchweg.htm. [#ABEL2].

In making this animation I have scanned in my hand coloured versions of the fifty pictures that make up the Atalanta fugiens series. I believe this hand colouring makes these images even more accessible, and I have tried to use a consistent colouring scheme to emphasise the various elements of the symbolic sequence.

Introductory page linking to transcriptions and tranlsations of the emblems. "Michael Maier's alchemical emblem book Atalanta fugiens was first published in Latin in 1617. It was a most amazing book as it incorporated 50 emblems with epigrams and a discourse, but extended the concept of an emblem book by incorporating 50 pieces of music the 'fugues' or canons. In this sense it was an early example of multimedia.

An English translation exists in the British Library MS. Sloane 3645. Clay Holden was kind enough to allow his transcription of emblems 1 to 10, and Hereward Tilton has transcribed 11 to 34, and Peter Branwin has completed the work by transcribing 35 to 50.

"The 'twelve keys' is a famous work by the Basil Valentine, supposed to have been a Bendictine Monk-Adept of the 15th century. The Basil Valentine writings, however, emerge in the last decade of the 16th century. The text of the 'twelve keys' was initially published in 1599 without illustrations, though the following edition of 1602 had rough woodcuts. The famous series of engravings were first included in the Michael Maier's Tripus aureus of 1618, issued by Lucas Jennis". Twelve thumbnail images with link to enlarged illustrations.. [#ABEL2].

This important text was also included in a number of compendia, such as the Musaeum Hermeticum.

"Valentin Weigel (1553-1588) was a mystical writer who drew upon Paracelsist and alchemical ideas. His ideas influenced Jacob Boehme, and other German Protestant mystics of the 17th century. Most of his writings were published after his death, when a small group of Weigelians promoted his ideas, and some texts were issued in his name, pseudonymously. This book is the only one I know that was ever published in English.

Its main interest lies in the fact that he influenced a school of French alchemysts who based their work on his findings, the first of these was G. F. Tiffereau who, brought a piece of gold from Mexico, which he claimed to have manufactured by the art. Tiffereau spent the years from 1847 to 1891 trying to persuade french scientists to

take his work seriously, but only succeeded in stimulating the alchemysts such as Jollivet-Castelot and others. He complained that the sun in France was not as suitable to the work as that of Mexico. This is the only translation of the book into English of which only one copy, the present, has been made". [#ABEL2].

In the 16th century a poem, the 'Remonstrances de Nature a l'alchymiste errant' was ascribed to Jean de Meung (but most likely was written in the 16th century). This was included in a volume of three "ancient" French poems on alchemy, Jean de la Fontaine 'De La Transformation Metallique', Paris circa1540 (and reissued in a number of editions over the next century).

I have not been able to locate the Paraclesus work in the Vatican nor Sendivogius' transcription, however, the Hermetic Catechism of Baron Tschoudy is a fine piece of hermetic philosophy.

"There is an interesting series of woodcuts in the important allegorical work by Giovanni Battista Nazari, Il metamorfosi metallico et humano... Brescia, 1564.

The illustrations are reminiscent of woodcuts in the famous Hypnerotomachia Poliphilio, 1499.". [#ABEL2].

661. Skinner, Doug. A puzzling text. [http://www.nthposition.com/puzzlingtext.php]. 2003. Access date: 26 Oct 2007.

An interesting description of his translation of Giovanni Battista Nazari's Three Dreams on Metallic Transmutation. and a summary of the book. "And the Three Dreams? Well, it's an odd piece of work. It consists of three fantastic and discursive dream visions, in which our narrator wanders through forests, caves, mountains, meadows, and villages; following nymphs, escaping monsters, pondering allegorical structures, spelling out inscriptions, and listening to lectures - all in pursuit of the elusive secrets of alchemy. His oddly random adventures are interrupted by digressions into botany, cryptography, music, and other subjects; and studded with verses, bibliographies, lists, and classical references. It's many things at once: allegory, textbook, satire, encyclopedia, fantasy. It's fairly concise, though: less than 200 pages". [#ABEL2].

The text is one of those works of practical alchemy in which the experiments are simply described.

Comparing Arabic Text with Geber's Summa. [http://www.history-science-technology.com/Summa/summa11.htm]. Access date: 4 Dec 2006.

"Conclusions. 1.- Arab alchemists (Jabir) developed Aristotle's theory of the two exhalations by considering the vapour and smoke as two initial forms of mercury and sulphur. The Arabic text given above gives a conclusive evidence in support of those historians who believed in the relationship between Aristotle's exhalations and the Arabic sulphur-mercury theory. The sulphur-mercury theory as developed by Jabir from the exhalations concept of Aristotle is the main source of the idea of alchemy. 2- The very close resemblance between the Arabic text and that of the Summa leaves no doubt that the Geber text is a translation from Arabic. No Latin writer in the thirteenth century could have formulated such a mature theory. The similarity of the texts cannot be the result of a coincidence.". [#ABEL2].
