An Analysis of Michael Maier’s Alchemical Work - Paul Ferguson - 07-02-2023 Thesis by Olivia Jane Heppel "In 1614, Count Palatine Michael Maier published Arcana Arcanissima, the Most Secret Mysteries in which he analyzes mythological stories through an alchemical lens to discover the Christian truths which they hold. This text is referenced throughout scholarship on Maier, but no one has translated it into English. Maier is famous for works such as the Atalanta Fugiens, and his depth and breadth of mythological and alchemical scholarship is profound. This study focuses on one chapter from Arcana Arcanissima on the Trojan War to discover Maier’s analyses of myth, alchemy, and religion." https://www.proquest.com/openview/3dc442fcad67f2ec1c2168e3687fba73/1?pq-origsite=gscholar&cbl=18750&diss=y |
