Description

Diana Fernando (au & il). Neither a science nor a philosophy, alchemy has been the subject of controversy & fascination for centuries. Containing over 500 entries, this comprehensive illustrated dictionary, newly revised, is a treasure trove of information. As a practicing alchemist & linguist, Diana Fernando has been able to return to original sources & re-interpret their meanings. In particular, she has drawn on many Arabic & kabbalistic manuscripts to provide an original viewpoint. Furthermore, the important visual aspect of alchemy is maintained by her skillful artistry in illustrations created especially for this book, which are inspired by the great symbols & emblems of every aspect of the alchemical phenomenon.
