Abstract

Derrière l’imagerie populaire de l’alchimiste assis au secret de son fourneau, il y eut jadis des êtres de chair. Qui étaient ces hommes? Comment vivaient-ils? Quelle place tinrent-ils dans la société et dans le monde intellectuel d’alors? Cette étude de la réception de l’alchimie et des doctrines de Paracelse en France s’attache à la production du livre alchimique et paracelsien et à l’histoire des nombreuses querelles que ce dernier provoque. On établit chemin faisant la biographie de plusieurs alchimistes, tel Joseph Du Chesne ou Etienne de Clave, et l’on ruine la légende selon laquelle Descartes, de retour d’Allemagne, aurait été suspecté de rosicrucianisme. L’ouvrage s’achève sur la grande crise des années 1620, où une alchimie inclinant tantôt au matérialisme, tantôt au panthéisme, est englobée par les apologètes chrétiens dans leur condamnation du mouvement libertin. Alchimie et paracelsisme est le premier d’une série de trois volumes, où seront successivement étudiés les cercles alchimiques français et le mécénat princier qui les favorisa, ainsi que les rapports entre science, religion et littérature dans la France alchimique de la fin de la Renaissance.

Abstract

Consisting of a series of case studies, this book is devoted to the concept and uses of salt in early modern science, which have played a crucial role in the evolution of matter theory from Aristotelian concepts of the elements to Newtonian chymistry. No reliable study on this subject has been previously available. Its exploration of natural history’s and medicine’s intersection with chemical investigation in early modern England demonstrates the growing importance of the senses and experience as causes of intellectual change from 1650-1750. It demonstrates that an understanding of the changing definitions of “salt” is also crucial to a historical comprehension of the transition between alchemy and chemistry.
