The Conception of Alchemy as Expressed in the 'Pretiosa Margarita Novella' of Petrus Bonus of Ferrara
By Chiara Crisciani
"'I do not know how Pietro Buono composed his Precious Pearl, but if he had written out ali the Latin alchemical, philosophical and mystical books available to him, cut the copies into small pieces, classified the innumerable fragments as plausibly as possible, and finally edited them in the new order thus obtained ... the final result would not have been very different from his compilation.' That was G. Sarton's judgement on Bonus."

The Hermetic Life of Francis Bacon
by Alfred Dodd
Collated and reformatted by Robert Hutwohl
"Francis Bacon, born in 1561 as the concealed son of Queen Elizabeth, led a life of both public and secret pursuits. His early exposure to esoteric activities and his disillusionment with traditional education fueled his desire for intellectual revolution. Bacon’s travels and encounters with secret societies influenced his ideas, leading him to champion scientific experimentation and a new philosophical approach. Francis Bacon, driven by a vision of a new system of ethics and education, aimed to create a society bound by moral force. He pursued this goal through both open and secret means, establishing the Rosicrosse Literary Society and Invisible Rosicrucian Colleges. Bacon’s influence extended to literature, science, and Freemasonry, shaping modern thought and institutions."

The Mystical and Medical Philosophy of Paracelsus [Part 3. Fundamentals of Metaphysical Healing] By Manly P. Hall
By Robert L Hutwohl
"Paracelsus believed sickness arises from disobedience to natural laws governing health. He emphasized the importance of faith, prayer, and positive thinking in healing, viewing faith-healing as scientifically valid. Paracelsus also advocated for natural remedies, believing nature provides a cure for every ailment, and encouraged the development of intuitive healing abilities. Paracelsus believed in the interconnectedness of all living things and the importance of energy in nutrition and healing. He advocated for the use of natural remedies, including talismans and carefully selected plants, to restore balance and provide the necessary energy for the body, soul, and spirit. Paracelsus also emphasized the role of the environment and mental state in maintaining health and believed that diseases, like measles, serve a purpose in nature’s grand design. Paracelsus believed diseases were energized organisms, influenced by atmospheric conditions, planetary alignments, and collective emotions. He explored optical and auditory therapies, utilizing art, music, and sacred rituals for healing. Paracelsus also delved into alchemy, seeking a universal medicine to transform the inner life and restore harmony."

Sciences, humanities and the 'scientific unconscious': gender-related images in alchemy and chemistry, in: Helene Götschel (ed.): Transforming Substance. Gender in Material Sciences - An Anthology, Uppsala University Press 2013, pp. 85-108
By Ute Frietsch
"The transition to modern chemistry marked a pivotal moment in the representation of gender within science, moving from a rich tapestry of alchemical symbolism to a more neutral stance. This study probes the implications of this transformation on current scientific narratives."

"Orpheus is familiar from Greek mythology as a peerless bard, the Thracian son of a Muse with superhuman musical abilities that enabled him to win the release of his young wife Eurydice from Hades, only to lose her on the way back. But he was also considered an authentic poet preceding Hesiod and Homer and on a par with Musaeus, and was credited with poems, oracles, and the foundation of rituals in a tradition that remained vital and creative from Archaic Greece through to the Roman Empire and beyond. Essentially Dionysiac, but without the violence and blood sacrifice, and with a focus on theogony, cosmogony, and the origin and destiny of souls, Orphism was at once a distinctive and an open tradition, with significant change and development over time but with features that made the works and rituals cumulatively attributed to Orpheus identifiable to followers."

ALCHEMY, FROM THE CAPTURE OF A SOUL BY THE EGYPTIAN GNOSTICS TO THE SEARCH OF A PANACEA IN EUROPE: FIFTEEN CENTURIES OF RESEARCH ON HUMAN FERTILIZATION
By Didier Maintenant
The diversity of treatises grouped in the "alchemical" corpus has caused a misleading amalgam, still prevalent today: alchemy would be a practice based on the belief of being able to transform a vile metal into gold. The objective of this publication is to demonstrate that such motivation could not be attributed to Egyptian craftsmen so renowned for their ancestral know-how. Its conclusion will then make the link with the probable alchemical practice of the Gnostics (or followers of Hermes).
