The medieval alchemists were as interested in the discipline of
psychological and spiritual transformation as they were in the
transmutation of lead into gold. In fact, Jung's study of
alchemical texts uncovered a symbolic language that expressed many
of his own insights into psychological processes. Here, von Franz
examines texts by the 16th-century alchemist Gerhard Dorn, to show
the relationship between alchemy and analytical psychology.
