  Encyclopedia Iranica article on Alchemy
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-17-2025, 01:08 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

By Pierre Lory.

"As a medieval science, alchemy must be carefully distinguished from modern chemistry. Externally, the purpose of alchemy was the conversion of base metals like lead into silver or gold by means of long and complicated operations leading to the production of a mysterious substance, the “philosopher’s stone,” able to operate the transmutation. The idea is that all metals belong to the same species and evolve slowly in the earth from the state of lead to pure gold, and that the “philosopher’s stone” can artificially foster this evolution."

  Fiction: R.F. Kuang’s novel ‘Katabasis'
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-17-2025, 12:56 PM - Forum: Reviews and book notices - No Replies

"In R.F. Kuang’s Katabasis, the study of analytic philosophy is literally the study of magick. Alice Law, Kuang’s protagonist, is a postgraduate in Cambridge’s Department of Analytic Magick in the mid-1980s, and she studies everything from “alchemical scribblings of Samarkand to Wittgenstein’s lost notebooks."

  Talk: Arcimboldo at the Court of the Alchemists
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-17-2025, 12:52 PM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

29-Jan-2026 at 10:40 am - 12:00 pm

By Rupert Dickens. 2027 is the 500th anniversary the birth of Giuseppe Arcimboldo, one of the strangest and most intriguing artists of all time. He captivated his contemporaries with his depictions of the human face composed of objects such as fruits, flowers, fish and books. After centuries of obscurity, he was rediscovered in the 19th century and then revered by the Surrealists who saw him as a pioneer for their mining of the subconscious. Arcimboldo worked at the court of the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolph II, one of the greatest collectors in history who acquired masterpieces by Bruegel, Titian and Durer. He also assembled hundreds of artists, wizards and alchemists at his castle in Prague.

An Arts Society Enfield Talk. Non members welcome for £10 each, payable at the door.
