COLLECTANEA CHEMICA - A COLLECTION OF ALCHEMY

दार्शनिक पत्थर सहित विभिन्न कीमिया सूत्रों का एक संग्रह।

Alchemy was an ancient branch of natural philosophy, a philosophical and protoscientific tradition practiced throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia, originating in Greco-Roman Egypt in the first few centuries.

Alchemists attempted to purify, mature, and perfect certain materials. Common aims were chrysopoeia, the transmutation of "base metals" (e.g., lead) into "noble metals" (particularly gold); the creation of an elixir of immortality; the creation of panaceas able to cure any disease; and the development of an alkahest, a universal solvent. The perfection of the human body and soul was thought to permit or result from the alchemical magnum opus] and, in the Hellenistic and Western mystery tradition, the achievement of gnosis. In Europe, the creation of a philosopher's stone was variously connected with all of these projects.

Collectanea Chemica is a short collection of some curious Alchemical treatises, including the Philosopher's Stone, which was republished by A.E. Waite in 1893. According to the preface, Waite found these in a manuscript belonging to a collector of occult books.
