Workshop Review: Alchemy in the Islamicate World

[Paul Ferguson]

"The Gotha Manuscript Workshop on alchemy in the Islamicate world facilitated in-depth discussions among scholars about the significance of unedited alchemical texts and the rich manuscript tradition from the Islamic period. The workshop highlighted the need for extensive research on alchemical heritage, particularly emphasizing the gaps in available manuscripts and the necessity for comparative studies on alchemical terminology and its practical applications. Additionally, the event fostered collaboration between specialists of Islamic and European alchemy, promoting the publication of bilingual editions of key texts in this field."
