Olivier Dufault on Transmutation Theory - Paul Ferguson - 01-12-2023
Abstract: This paper defines the nature and extent of transmutation theory in the Greek alchemical corpus as found in the texts attributed to Zosimus of Panopolis, “the philosopher Synesius,” and “the philosopher Olympiodorus of Alexandria.” By transmutation theory, I understand all explicit attempts made by Greek alchemical writers to explain how one substance can be entirely transformed into another.
