The Hermetic Museum

More about the book

A significant compilation of alchemical writings, this work serves as a supplement to major Hermetic literature. Published in 1678, it expands upon an earlier 1625 edition, offering a more accessible collection of brief yet impactful texts from less ancient alchemical authors. By presenting these writings, it aims to complement extensive repositories like Theatrum Chemicum and Bibliotheca Chemica Curiosa, which focus on foundational figures such as Geber and other prominent alchemists. This makes it an essential resource for those interested in the evolution of alchemical thought.
