«Alchimie: le grand secret» is the historical essay by Andrea Aromatico, published by Gallimard in paperback (144 pages, in French).
Alchemy was born in the most ancient civilizations and goes beyond the transmutation of lead into gold: Aromatico presents it as a philosophy, an «experimental metaphysics» that gave rise to a language, the Kabbalah, and a repertoire of images. The journey runs from the alchemist's laboratory and its apparatus to the symbol of the philosopher's stone.
Published on November 18, 1996 in the Découvertes Gallimard collection; it falls within the categories of philosophy and history of science.
Aimed at readers interested in the history of science, philosophy and esotericism.
