Alchemy - The Turba Philosophorum or Assembly of the Sagas

Více o knize

This ancient alchemical text, translated from Arabic around 900 A.D., offers insights into early European alchemical thought. A. E. Waite's English translation, first published in 1896, reflects his deep engagement with the occult and esoteric traditions, positioning alchemy as a spiritual practice rather than mere proto-science. The volume includes a new biography of Waite, known for his influential works and the co-creation of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. This modern edition aims to make this rare text accessible to contemporary readers.
