In September 2008, an international conference on the history of
alchemy was held at El Escorial, close to the ancient location of
the distilling houses operating under royal patronage during the
second half of the 16th century. The present book consists of a
selection of the papers presented then, shedding light on
little-studied medieval and early modern texts, important
alchemical doctrines such as medieval corpuscularianism, early
modern spiritus mundi or the function of salt within chymical
principles, and discussing such prominent figures as Paracelsus,
Isaac Hollandus, Michael Sendivogius, Fontenelle or G. E. Stahl.
Last but not least, the book offers new insights on the most recent
history of Spanish alchemy.
