Alchemy in Shakespeare's The WInter's Tale - Paul Ferguson - 03-27-2026
"From the conspiracy that opposes Leontes to his wife Hermione and his friend Polixenes to Apollo's prophecy, that marks a turning point and the beginning of a process of gradual regeneration, The Winter's Tale seems to be structured as a healing journey through division and reunion, loss and recovery that might be read in alchemical and hermetic terms"
