Review of Ahmad Y. Al-Hassan: Studies in Al-Kimiya’: Critical Issues in Latin and Arabic Alchemy and Chemistry
By Gabriele Ferrario
"The review evaluates Ahmad Y. Al-Hassan's work on Arabic and Latin alchemy and chemistry, highlighting the contributions made in presenting operational insights into medieval industrial chemistry. While the book provides valuable research on Arabic alchemical practices and their impact, it is marred by editorial inaccuracies and inconsistencies, which detract from its scholarly potential. The author discusses the significance of figures like Ǧābir ibn Ḥayyān and examines various chemical processes and technologies within the medieval Islamic context, ultimately concluding that the text could have fostered a more robust academic debate if presented with greater rigor."

The Alchemical Structure of the Major Arcana: 22 Stages of Inner Transmutation
26 novembre 2025
BY NICOLE LAU
"The twenty-two cards of the Tarot's Major Arcana are not random images—they are a precise map of the alchemical process, a visual codex of transformation that guides the soul from ignorance to enlightenment, from lead to gold, from the Fool's first step to the World's completion. Each card represents a stage in the Great Work, an alchemical operation, a psychological transformation. Together, they form a complete curriculum for the transmutation of consciousness—the same journey described in alchemical texts, Kabbalistic diagrams, and mystical initiations across cultures and centuries."

INTRODUCCIÓN A LA HISTORIA DE LA QUÍMICA I. LOS TIEMPOS DE LA MAGIA Y EL ARTE.
Desde los comienzos de la historia, la materia ofrece experiencias espectaculares a los seres humanos. El hombre, desde siempre, se ha preocupado en observarla con atención, en conocerla y en transformarla. Y esto por una razón elemental: del mundo natural que le rodeaba, debía extraer sus medios de vida.La materia ha sido objeto de estudio desde diversas perspectivas. Lo ha sido desde la filosofía y las ciencias de la naturaleza hasta las ciencias ocultas. Una de las ciencias de la naturaleza que estudia las reacciones de la materia y sus propiedades es La Química.En la actualidad, a pesar de que para el hombre comœn el ámbito de la química pueda parecer algo ajeno o exótico, su presencia y repercusión en muestra vida cotidiana es constante.
