The Alchemical Antialchemism of Hryhorii Skovoroda - Paul Ferguson - 08-22-2023
"The paper is devoted to the analysis of relations between Hryhorii Skovoroda’s philosophy and the alchemical discourse. Skovoroda fundamentally rejects the traditional concept of the philosophers’ stone. However, his views are unexpectedly and deeply related with the spiritual alchemy of those times – the search for the “living philosophers’ stone” in the microcosm of human soul. Such “alchemical antialchemism” of Skovoroda’s philosophy seems to be natural in the context of inner controversies of the phenomenon of European alchemy of XVI – XVIII centuries."
