Description

Explore the historical transition between ancient practices and modern science with this scholarly volume from the International Archives of the History of Ideas. This book originates from a specialized Colloquium held at the Warburg Institute, focusing on the specific period of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

The text explores these connections within a strictly defined chronological framework, providing academic depth for students and historians. One of the key areas of study involves the relationship between medicine and alchemy within Lullian treatises. Based on research into unpublished manuscripts, the work offers a look into the corpuscular philosophy of the era.
