2. Alchemy and medieval universities
- cis.alma.unibo.it
- Alchemy and medieval universities. ...
- It is a well-known fact that alchemy was not part of university syllabuses during the Middle Ages. The fluid forms of institutionalisation in the teaching of alchemy, which for example may define a tradition of court alchemy, were of a later date, and are still subject to interpretation (although Frederick II's court should be considered as a case apart). There are no accounts, either, of presumed initiation "sects", or schools for alchemists, which might shed light on informal networks of scholars interested in alchemy and working in universities, even if the few references found occasionally to the work carried out by "filii Hermetis" deserve attention. ...
- A radical cause for the exclusion of alchemy from university curricula 1 is to be found in the very nature of alchemic knowledge, which was essentially operative, and for two reasons. ... This explains at least in part why we do not find for alchemy in the Middle Ages the structure typical of scholastic medicine. ...
- The fundamental diversity of alchemic knowledge due to this surplus of "opus", when compared to other university disciplines, and the frequent condemnations by religious authorities that alchemy was subjected to during the Middle Ages, explain why historians of medieval Latin alchemy have often assumed a clear-cut contrast, an almost drastic contraposition, between scholastic culture and alchemy. ...
- It is certainly incorrect, for example, to regard "alchemy" and "scholasticism" as two monolithic, independent domains of knowledge during the 13th and 14th centuries. ... Above all, such reconstructions appear partial in the light of more recent studies, that have suggested less clear-cut comparative assessments of alchemy and scholastic culture. ...
- The demand for a more balanced historical assessment of the relationship between alchemy and scholastic culture was elicited first by Robert Halleux in 1979 6 . Halleux emphasised the textual and doctrinal wealth of Latin alchemy, its division into different corpora of texts and diverse currents, as well as its non linear, indeed dynamic evolution. ...
- They are, rather, examples of intense, documented contacts between alchemy and contemporary research in fields like medicine and Aristotelian natural philosophy. ...
- At present, the challenge facing scholars trying to trace the circulation of alchemy in medieval universities is to develop a model describing an ambiguous situation of presence and absence. While the fact that alchemy was not taught in universities is indisputably proven, scholars must also cope with evidence showing that a considerable amount of exchanges, loans, and contacts went on between what was transmitted by universities in their institutional capacity, and what was being circulated informally by networks of scholars active in and around universities. ...
- Finally, it must not be forgotten that, as far as I am aware, universities never engaged in a judicial act for or against alchemy. ...
- The relationship between alchemy and scholastic institutions other than universities must also be investigated. ... To this purpose, research should be carried out on the language used in the teaching of Latin alchemy, as well as on the models and ideals proposed in the literature for the formation of the alchemist. ... The second, connected strategy, to be developed within the framework of institutional history, should be to investigate in depth the interaction between alchemy and medieval institutions other than universities. ...

- were among the founders of that great revival of Egyptian Studies, which filtered into Europe under the Arabic name of "Alchemy. ...
- By the time Arabic Alchemy reached Europe, it found there an already vast body of studies inspired by the contact between Greece and Egypt, long before 'the Egyptian Science' was forgotten by the Egyptians themselves.
- Chemistry's claim that it diverged from ancient Alchemy over the issue of 'Spiritual forces' is both absolutely true and furthermore, casts true Alchemy in it's own proper light.
- Alchemy is the Egyptian Science of SPIRITUAL FORCES and how they affect both Matter and Living entities.
- According to Egyptian Alchemy, every 'thing' has a 'spirit' to it; and every 'spirit' has SOME FORM of 'body. ...
- ) Those seeking to rediscover the truths of Alchemy are thus faced with two possible starting-places; THE FOUR PHASES OF THE GREAT WORK, and THE FIVE "SPIRITUAL" SOLIDS.
- Before outlining those Forces and Geometries, however, it is well to remind the reader that Physical Alchemy DID in fact lead to the discovery of Chemistry; any attempt to re-apply the principles of The Great Work to "physical transmutation of the elements" will naturally result in either your personal 'discovery' of the Laws of Chemistry OR your rediscovery of the ORIGINAL form of Alchemy. ...
- The Laws Of Spiritual Alchemy.
- Our Alchemy uses a CYLINDER composed of the four sides identified as 'outside, inside, top edge and bottom edge;' and this is used to "channel" substances or other dialogues into the 'alembic' or Vessel holding the symbolic or elementary "subject-matter. ...
- You may find it useful to contact them each (in the original Egyptian OR the more modern Hebraic Kaballist practices) as you progress through your studies in Alchemy.
- This allows one to 'transmute' or 'alter' your relation to them, by "Spiritual Alchemy. ... While it has become traditional to refer to this process of Neteru-contact as 'the old Egyptian religion,' that is a misnomer; it was in fact not 'religion' but A TOTEMIC SCIENCE, part of the larger science that we today inherit as Spiritual Alchemy.
- ' While it may seem improbable to the inexperienced mind, each Alchemically-triggered Evolutionary Phase actually DOES produce some manifestation of the color of that Phase of Alchemy. ...

- Years pass swiftly and each succeeding crop of collegiate Alpha Chi Sigmas, although living largely in the present, maintains a constant interest in alchemy, and it is a matter of common knowledge, that one of the men who has had much to do with the flavor of the potent fraternal brew fermented by this organization is Harry A. ...
- The commonly held idea of alchemy is that it was a foolish attempt on the part of certain pseudo-chemists to transmute lead into gold, or to find a magic medicine which would make man immortal, or to discover a universal solvent, or to reach some other equally fanciful goal. ...
- Such a view of alchemy is an exceedingly superficial one. The basis of alchemy, from first to last, was a system of philosophy which hoped or claimed to penetrate the mystery of life and to understand and control the formation of inanimate substances. ... The natural philosophy of alchemy taught that the processes of nature tend toward perfection. ... Man may by art, the art of alchemy, accomplish in a short period what nature accomplishes in a very long period. ... Alchemy was the Divine Art. ...
- Of course, alchemy in all centuries shared in the mysticism, the superstitions, the credulity of its intellectual environment. And amongst the followers of alchemy were quacks and greedy individuals. ... In the end these men brought alchemy into disrepute, but the doctrine of the transmutation of metals did not wholly die out. ...
- There have been many arguments as to the origin of alchemy. If the broader view of alchemy, such as suggested above, be adopted then alchemy is seen to be rooted in those speculations regarding matter and natural processes which are as old as written records, probably much older; and it had not one but many origins. ...
- The history of alchemy in China is not yet unraveled. The oldest book in the world devoted entirely to alchemy is Wei Po Yang's treatise of 142 A. ... , Ko Hung speaks of three kinds of alchemy, namely: (1) the production of a gold containing medicine which would assure longevity; (2) the production of "red cinnabar" by which gold might be made; and (3) the actual preparation of gold. It will be noted that these three objectives of alchemy correspond closely to the three aims of alchemy in western Europe a dozen centuries later, namely preparation of a great medicine, curative for both man and metals, the preparation of an agent which would accomplish transmutation, sometimes called the "Powder of Projection," and the actual preparation of gold and silver, i. ...

- Alchemy was the name given in Latin Europe in the 12th century to an aspect of thought that corresponds to astrology, which is apparently an older tradition. ... Astrology is concerned with man's relationship to "the stars" (including the members of the solar system); alchemy, with terrestrial nature. ...
- That both astrology and alchemy may be regarded as fundamental aspects of thought is indicated by their apparent universality. ... A single manuscript of some 80,000 words is the principal source for the history of Greek alchemy. Chinese alchemy is largely recorded in about 100 "books" that are part of the Taoist canon. Neither Indian nor Islamic alchemy has ever been collected, and scholars are thus dependent for their knowledge of the subject on occasional allusions in works of natural philosophy and medicine, plus a few specifically alchemical works. ...
- Nor is it really clear what alchemy was (or is). ... Words similar to it have been found in most ancient languages, with different meanings, but conceivably somehow related to alchemy. In fact, the Greeks, Chinese, and Indians usually referred to what Westerners call alchemy as "The Art," or by terms denoting change or transmutation. ...
