Description

Explore a unique collection of previously unpublished manuscripts with Alchemical Poetry, 1575-1700. Published by Routledge, this volume provides the first look at 14 significant poems that span from the Elizabethan era to the Augustan period. These works, ranging from 12 to 3,000 lines, offer a rare window into the history of early modern science and medicine. This book is a vital resource for interdisciplinary historians and scholars interested in the development of alchemy. While the poems are presented in chronological order, nine of them serve as verse translations of earlier alchemical works. Each poem is accompanied by a textual and historical introduction, along with explanatory notes from the Editor to provide necessary context. By studying these manuscripts, readers can better understand the role of Renaissance alchemy in the evolution of scientific thought. This edition serves as an essential addition to any academic library or collection focused on the history of Europe and the Renaissance.
