A fairly recent paper by Laura Bland (Notre-Dame) regarding monastic alchemy:
‘Alchemy and Economy at the Turn of the Fourteenth Century’.
Available on Academia (see link below), but under the title: ‘Making Money: Alchemy and the Rhetoric of Wealth in the Fourteenth Century’.
Also in the link below, a very interesting study in progress:
“To Avoid Chymical Experiments, Which Do More Harm than Good”: Alchemy in the Mines of Peru.
