"Alchemy is not only the origin of systematic experimentation and chemistry but also the first attempt to create a cohesive science of consciousness."

"“Alchemists pursued the secrets of creation, and Alchemical Belief takes their aspirations seriously. With careful readings and well-chosen cases, Bruce Janacek demonstrates that alchemical writings need to be read in the context of their authors’ broader intellectual and devotional pursuits. Alchemical writings lent themselves to the expression of irenic, unifying aspirations for Christianity and provided solutions to the political and religious conflicts rending the early modern world. This argument is as refreshing as it is ambitious.”

"John Donne thought it a wild extension of the imagination when he wrote, in his "Valediction: of the Booke" that "in the Bible some can finde out Alchimy." But many authors attempted it during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. This paper explores the logic behind their excesses, and establishes a link to explorations in archetypal literary criticism."
