"The following has been re-recorded from an old worn phonograph record of which only
two were ever made. The master and one copy. Both are old and worn and could only be
made audible again on a modern powerful machine. Audibly enough to be transcribed on
a soundtrack and herewith partly made public for the first time. Perhaps two or three
more playings would erase the last traces of sound.
It will give you an inside of the life, thinking and habitation of an alchemist, not of the
Middle Ages but of our own present century"

Linden, Stanton J.
, ed.The alchemy reader : from Hermes Trismegistus to Isaac
Newton; edited by Stanton J. Linden. Cambridge: Cambridge Univ P, 2003. [xxvi], 260p.
The Introduction Is an Especially Useful Modern Survey of Alchemy. Each Extract Is
Prefaced by an Interpretive Introduction and Suggestions for Further Readings.
"The Alchemy Reader Is a Collection of Primary Source Readings on Alchemy and
Hermeticism, Which Offers Readers an Informed Introduction and Background to a
Complex Field Through the Works of Important Ancient, Medieval and Early Modern
Alchemical Authors. Including Selections From the Legendary Hermes Trimegistus to
Robert Boyle and Isaac Newton, the Book Illustrates Basic Definitions, Conceptions, and
Varied Interests and Emphases; And It Also Illustrates the Highly Interdisciplinary
Character of Alchemical Thought and Its Links with Science and Medicine, Philosophical
and Religious Currents, the Visual Arts and Iconography and, Especially, Literary
Discourse. Like the Notable Anthologies of Alchemical Writings Published in the
Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, It Seeks to Counter the Problem of an Acute Lack
of Reliable Primary Texts and to Provide a Convenient and Accessible Point of Entry to
the Field.

Nicolas
Flamel - The Figures of Abraham the Jew.
[
].
Coloured illustrations. "This series of seven figures, purports to be a copy of an original
'Book of Abraham the Jew' which Nicolas Flamel is supposed to have found in the 14th
Century, and which inspired him to undertake his quest for the secrets of alchemy. There
are no early manuscripts of these figures, but there are many beautifully coloured
manuscripts dating from the late 17th and the 18th century. The figures often appear in
different orders from the one given below: Mercurius meets with Saturn; Planetary
dragons on a hill; The workers in the garden; The massacre of the innocents; The winged
caduceus of Mercurius; The crucified snake; Snakes among the hills"

How would the Emerald Tablet read if it were written today? First of all, we would have
to gear it toward an audience without much time for any background philosophizing, and
of course, we would be competing with television for their attention. Then, we would
have to at least acknowledge the "advances" made in scientific knowledge. Contemporary
science tells us that the universe is made up of energy, matter, and light. Those would be
what the alchemists called Sulfur, Salt, and Mercury, respectively. According to Einsteins
equation (E=mc2), energy and matter can be transformed into one another through the
constant of light. In alchemy, Sulfur and Salt are transformed into one another through
the intermediary of Mercury. It looks like, if that little "c" in Einsteins equation really
stood for "consciousness" instead of "light," there would be no difference at all between
physics and alchemy. Let us assume that consciousness is light, after all. In that case, an
Emerald Tablet for the 21st Century would look something like this:

Emerald
Tablet workbook. Athanor Books, 1999. ISBN: 0-9637914-4-3
This workbook is a guided tour through the steps of the Emerald Formula. There are
alchemical mandalas and symbolic drawings actually used by the alchemists to illustrate
the principles of the Emerald Tablet, as well as interpretations and guided meditations to
accompany them. Most engravings have never before been published to a wide audience
and date back over five hundred years; others have been restored with symbolic colors to
convey their archetypal content. [By D.W. Hauck?]
