Athens: Byzantine Alchemy Workshop

[Paul Ferguson]

"The Canellopoulos Museum, the Institute of Historical Research of the National Hellenic Research Foundation, and the Center for Hellenic Studies in Greece organize the workshop "Alchemy in Byzantium: Exploring a Fascinating 'Art'." CHS Greece, through its annual workshop series, aims to support Hellenic Studies and the broader field of Humanities, and to offer intergenerational, interdisciplinary, lifelong learning opportunities to the public. In this workshop, we will delve into the intriguing realm of Byzantine alchemy, a field that until recently remained largely unexplored but has now begun to attract research interest. Despite this growing attention, alchemy in Byzantium remains largely unknown to the general public."
