The Turba Philosophorum

Více o knize

Exploring the foundations of medieval Western alchemy, this text presents two significant versions: the Latin "Turba Philosophorum," a 13th-century translation of a 10th-century Arabic work, and the 15th-century French "Turba Gallica," likely derived from a Castilian original. Both versions serve as crucial historical documents, reflecting the synthesis of philosophical ideas and alchemical practices of their time.
