Katherine Neville: "I have just led a private tour for ten of the Dibner Library of Science and Technology, one of the most fascinating of the twenty-one Smithsonian Libraries. Here’s one of my favorite documents – Sir Isaac Newton’s alchemy notes, written in his kitchen garden in Cambridge. The librarians brought this document out when we were giving an earlier private tour to the ambassador of the Czech Republic and the Havel family"

  Alchemy in the Works of Pierre Le Lorrain, abbé de Vallemont
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 12-08-2025, 10:07 AM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

Occult Botany: Cartesianism, Mechanical Philosophy, and Alchemical Theory in the Works of Pierre Le Lorrain, abbé de Vallemont
December 2025
Nuncius / Istituto e museo di storia della scienza
DOI:10.1163/18253911-bja10188
Authors:
Justin Niermeier-Dohoney


"In 1705, Catholic cleric Pierre Le Lorrain, abbé de Vallemont, published Curiositez de la nature et l’art de Vegetation , which described experimental methods for enhancing botanical growth. As a Cartesian, Vallemont had developed theories about the natural processes of plants through a mechanical, corpuscular natural philosophy. Yet, Vallemont had also hoped to reconcile these observations about plants with what he described as “occult physics” in these materialist terms."

  Insights into Medieval Chemistry
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 12-03-2025, 11:36 AM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

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."
