8vo. xv, 278 pp. Bibliography, index. Black paper-backed boards, gilt-stamped spine, dust-jacket; top front jacket slightly rubbed. Bookplate. Very good. ISBN: 1840142820 This is a fundamental re-assessment of the world-view of the alchemists, natural philosophers and intelligencers of the mid-17th century. Based almost entirely upon the extensive and hitherto little-researched manuscript archive of Samuel Hartlib, it charts and contextualises the personal and intellectual history of Johann Moriaen (c.1592-1668), a Dutch-German alchemist and natural philosopher. Moriaen was closely acquainted with many of the leading thinkers and experimenters of his time, including Rene Descartes, J.A. Comenius, J.R. Glauber and J.S. Küffler. His detailed reports of relations with these figures and his response to their work provide a uniquely informed insight into the world of alchemy and natural philosophy. This study also illuminates the nature and mechanisms of intellectual and technological exchanges between Germany, The Netherlands and England. â" publisher. / The German minister, physician, natural philosopher and would-be alchemical adept Johann Moriaen was born in Nurnberg in 1591. By 1633 he was involved in practical aspects of optics and Paracelsian chemistry and medicine. In 1657 he is recorded as the owner of a scarlet dye works in Hulkestein near Arnhem.
