Un viaggio lungo tremila anni nel cuore del sapere umano. Storia dell'Alchimia - Dalle origini metafisiche alla chimica moderna ricostruisce con rigore e ispirazione l'evoluzione dell'alchimia dalle sue radici egizio-ellenistiche e islamiche fino alla nascita della scienza moderna e alla sua rinascita nel pensiero simbolico contemporaneo.
Roberto Minichini, poeta e studioso di tradizioni sapienziali, mostra come l'alchimia sia stata molto più di una pre-chimica una vera filosofia della natura e dello spirito, un linguaggio universale di trasformazione in cui il lavoro sul metallo riflette il lavoro sull'anima. Dalle fornaci di Zosimo di Panopoli e Jabir ibn Hayyan, ai laboratori segreti del Medioevo, dal Rinascimento ermetico al rosacrocianesimo, fino a Newton, Jung ed Eliade, il libro traccia una linea ininterrotta fra scienza, simbolo e redenzione interiore.
Con uno stile limpido ma profondo, Minichini unisce la ricerca storica a un'interpretazione metafisica e psicologica, restituendo all'alchimia il suo significato originario: la conoscenza come trasmutazione dell'essere.
Temi trattati:
- Origini sacre e metafisiche dell'alchimia in Egitto e Grecia
- L'alchimia islamica e la trasmissione al mondo latino
- L'ermetismo medievale e rinascimentale
- Il passaggio dall'alchimia alla chimica moderna
- L'alchimia simbolica e psicologica del Novecento (Jung, Eliade, Guénon)
Per chi è questo libro:
Per studiosi e lettori interessati a filosofia, mistica, storia della scienza, psicologia del profondo e simbolismo. Per chi vede nella conoscenza un atto di trasformazione e nella materia un riflesso dello spirito.
