Collectanea chemica : being certain select treatises on alchemy and hermetic medicine

Collectanea chemica is a collection of treatises drawn from the alchemical and Hermetic medical tradition. Historically significant as a preservation of older esoteric texts, it gives readers access to writings on transmutation, spagyric medicine, and the symbolic-philosophical aims of alchemy.

James Elliott and Co. was a publisher associated with the production and distribution of esoteric, spiritualist, and occult works in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As a publishing firm rather than an individual author, its significance lies in helping circulate texts within alternative religious and occult readerships.
