Zosimos of Panopolis
#1
"Shannon Grimes, professor and head of the Department of Religious and Ethical Studies, just published her first book, Becoming Gold: Zosimos of Panopolis and the Alchemical Arts in Roman Egypt. It’s the first book in a series on Greco-Egyptian alchemy. Her book offers a new perspective on early alchemy and its origins.

“I’m very interested in religious views of the natural world,” said Grimes. “My expertise is in religion in the Greco-Roman world, so alchemy, which emerged during this period and combines religion and chemistry, is something that intrigued me.”
