This paper explores major trends in visualization of medieval theories of natural and artificial transformation of substances in relation to their philosophical and theological bases. The function of pictorial forms is analyzed in terms of the prevailing conceptions of science and methods of transmitting knowledge. The documents under examination date from the thirteenth to the fifteenth century. In these, pictorial representations include lists and tables, geometrical figures, depictions of furnaces and apparatus, and figurative elements mainly from the vegetable and animal realms. An effort is made to trace the earliest evidence of these differing pictorial types."

"Based upon key publications by Paul Oskar Kristeller (1938) and especially Frances A. Yates (1964), it has been widely assumed that an important “Hermetic Tradition”
emerged during the Renaissance and that Marsilio Ficino’s Latin translation of the Corpus Hermeticum (first ed. 1471) was at its origin. This article argues that these
assumptions need to be revised."

"Dot Porter, Curator, Digital Research Services at the University of Pennsylvania Library, presents a video orientation to Ms. Codex 1672, an alchemical treatise concerning the creation of the philosopher’s stone (p. 72) and on transmutation of metals such as gold, silver, lead, and mercury. Written in Italy in the second half of the 18th century."

"Alchemy is a vast realm, and I’ve striven to distill its essence into a simplified framework that you can readily grasp. I’ve laid down the fundamental principles, enabling you to apply them to your own life and connect with the profound and enchanting world of Alchemy. Within these digital pages, you’ll discover a treasure trove of concepts, rituals, cartomancy, insights, and more."
