Download or read book The Root of the World written by Roger Bacon and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-01-28 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The operation of the alchemical elements in forty-seven revealing steps. The bodies of all natural things being as well perfect as imperfect from the original of time, and compounded of a quaternity of elements or natures, viz., fire, air, earth, water, are conjoined by God Almighty in a perfect unity. In these four elements is hid the secret of the philosophers. The earth and water give corporeity and visibility; the fire and air, the spirit and invisible power, which cannot be seen or touched but in the other two. When these four elements are conjoined, and made to exist in one, they become another thing; whence it is evident, that all things in nature are composed of the said elements, being altered and changed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sourcebook explores how the Middle Ages dealt with questions related to the mental life of creatures great and small. It makes accessible a wide range of key Latin texts from the fourth to the fourteenth century in fresh English translations. Specialists and non-specialists alike will find many surprising insights in this comprehensive collection of sources on the medieval philosophy of animal minds. The book’s structure follows the distinction between the different aspects of the mental. The author has organized the material in three main parts: cognition, emotions, and volition. Each part contains translations of texts by different medieval thinkers. The philosophers chosen include well-known figures like Augustine, Albert the Great, and Thomas Aquinas. The collection also profiles the work of less studied thinkers like John Blund, (Pseudo-)Peter of Spain, and Peter of Abano. In addition, among those featured are several translated here into English for the first time. Each text comes with a short introduction to the philosopher, the context, and the main arguments of the text plus a section with bibliographical information and recommendations for further reading. A general introduction to the entire volume presents the basic concepts and questions of the philosophy of animal minds and explains how the medieval discussion relates to the contemporary debate. This sourcebook is valuable for anyone interested in the history of philosophy, especially medieval philosophy of mind. It will also appeal to scholars and students from other fields, such as psychology, theology, and cultural studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In ancient times it is believed that a legendary Emerald Tablet existed, one that was said to contain an encoded message written by Hermes 'the father of philosophers' himself. It contained the words of direction known as 'the operation of the Sun', that if one followed with accuracy the method described, that individual would obtain the glory of the whole world, the power of power, wisdom that could not be limited by any obscurity, and the ability to overcome any subtle or great matter. There is a catch however, to obtain it, one must first understand it. It was a riddle and the key to solving this particular riddle has been plaguing philosophers and scientists for millennia. It is the secret to a long standing question. How can one obtain the philosophers' stone? and even more, what is it? Within these pages are a collection of works that answer these very questions. The blueprint of the philosopher stone is obtainable first by the study of philosophy and also through the study of nature. A student of alchemy; philosophy & chemistry, can learn to seek the truth of natural science and discover the secret which only few men have been able to achieve. It starts first with understanding, then continued experimentation. This volume contains several books that will, together, help the student in the pursuit of understanding the blueprint.
