Fecha de publicación: | 2017 | Publicación seriada: | Vegueta: Anuario de la Facultad de Geografía e Historia | Resumen: | During the Late Middle Ages, alchemy attracted the interest of many eminent scholars, yet alchemy´s constant failure to produce the philosopher´s stone veiled the art with a cloak of scorn. In this article, I examine the cases of Roger Bacon and of John of Rupescissa, both of whom entwined alchemy with philosophy and theology, portraying the hermetic art as a salutary practice for humanity and the Church. Therefore, my scrutiny of their works aims to demostrate alchemy´s desire, albeit somewhat implicit, for recognition and legitimization. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/24014 | ISSN: | 1133-598X | Fuente: | Vegueta : Anuario de la Facultad de Geografía e Historia [ISSN 1133-598X], n. 17, p. 161-173 |
