Résumé
What do we really know about Greek alchemy throughout the ages ? Certain periods, such as the Byzantine and post-Byzantine, have been somewhat overlooked. This volume engages in the effort to shed light on certain aspects of Greek Alchemy from the st century CE to the 18 century, discussing and presenting relative sources, as well as the reception, transformation and use of this 'art : The book also examines newly discovered manuscripts and offers a commented translation of Srephanos of Alexandria's prayers.
Furthermore, to better understand the material aspect of alchemy, it addresses the expectations and problems of laboratory replication and chemical explanation of early alchemical processes, and presents educational activities that use historical texts for the reconstruction of apparatuses in the school laboratory in secondary education.
