Title: Hermetic Philosophy and Alchemy: A Suggestive Inquiry into the Hermetic Mystery
Author: Mary Anne Atwood
Description: Mary Anne Atwood's 1850 inquiry into Hermetic philosophy and alchemy, combined with a dissertation on the most celebrated alchemical philosophers. Traces the Hermetic mystery from antiquity to the Renaissance, treating alchemy as a spiritual discipline rather than a proto-chemistry. A foundational nineteenth-century study that shaped how later esoteric writers approached the Hermetic tradition.
