  Trinity College, Cambridge, MSS O.5.31 and R.14.37
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-17-2025, 12:23 PM - Forum: Alchemy texts - No Replies

Grund, P. J., & Norja, S. (2025). Alchemy, the Vernacular, and Text Production in Late Medieval England: Presentation Strategies in Trinity College, Cambridge, MSS O.5.31 and R.14.37. Ambix, 1–24. https://doi.org/10.1080/00026980.2025.2555709

"The article studies the strategies that late-medieval scribes used to present alchemical texts to their audience. Investigating two late fifteenth-century alchemical codices – Trinity College, Cambridge, MSS O.5.31 and R.14.37, both almost exclusively written in English – we demonstrate that the copyists took considerable pains to present reader-friendly texts. They provided neatly separated textual units, furnishing them with headings, manicules (pointing hands), and even a table of contents. This organisation is supported by the use of various ink colours, letter sizes, and framing devices. The appearance suggests significant pre-planning, perhaps even in a commercial context. We argue that these manuscripts highlight how readers engaged with alchemical texts and, by extension, that they reveal the importance afforded to texts and the vernacular as a vehicle for disseminating alchemical knowledge. In other words, it is not only the number of surviving manuscripts and their alchemical contents that are good indicators of late-medieval valuations of alchemy. Our study underscores how the visual materiality of extant textual artefacts also constitutes crucial evidence for our understanding of how practitioners used alchemical texts. It also exposes the place of alchemical texts in the text production industry of the time and illustrates the status of fifteenth-century alchemy more widely."

  Separatio: The Alchemical Secret That Ends Confusion
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-17-2025, 12:21 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

Jungian.

"Alchemical separatio is the skill of sorting out your mind. You separate what belongs to you—your complexes, habitual triggers, and painful memories--from what is happening in the world around you. In the laboratory of your life, you separate present triggers from older wounds, and literal facts from symbolic meanings. This is part of your essential self-ordering instinct. As you bring more and more of yourself into conscious awareness, a delightful calm will tell you you’re on the right path. Join us and learn how to gain the profound clarity necessary on the path of Individuation."

  A Conceptual Interpretation of the Voynich Manuscript
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-17-2025, 09:51 AM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"Decoding the Unreadable? A Conceptual Interpretation of the Voynich Manuscript Through a Brythonic Lens"

By Erydir Ceisiwr and Lumos Aureon

"This document serves as a conceptual breakdown of the Complete Voynich Interpretation Thesis authored by Erydir and Lumos, available in full on their profile. It summarizes and expands on core symbolic and linguistic ideas explored in the original work, which proposed a Brythonic-rooted decryption framework grounded in Welsh language constructs, Druidic cosmology, and symbolic transformation."

  A Proposal for Reading the Voynich Manuscript
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-17-2025, 09:48 AM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"In this work, we provide a proposal for the transliteration and translation of the text of the Voynich Manuscript. Based upon our findings, the language of the Voynich Manuscript is a Vulgar Latin dialect, likely affected by a contemporary Italian dialect."

  The Linguistics of the Voynich Manuscript
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-17-2025, 09:47 AM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

By Luke Lindemann

"The Voynich Manuscript is a fifteenth-century illustrated cipher manuscript. In this overview of recent approaches to the Voynich Manuscript, we summarize and evaluate current work on the language that underlies this document. We provide arguments for treating the document as natural language (rather than a medieval hoax) and show how statistical arguments can be made about the phonology, morphology, and structure of the document even though the contents remain undecipherable."
