Michael Maier`s Atalanta Fugiens Sources of an Alchemical Book of Emblems
Posted on 2010-04-29

More Michael Maier& 96;s Atalanta Fugiens Sources of an Alchemical Book of Emblems by H.M.E. de Jong Description : Michael Maier was a 17th-century alchemist and physician to the court of Emperor Rudolf II in Prague. Between 1614 and his death in 1622, Maier published a number of alchemical works, of which Atalanta Fugiens was undoubtedly the richest and most important. First published in 1617, it is one of the finest alchemical emblem books and unique in its own left. Michael Maier& 96;s work is richly illustrated with original prints by M. Merian; each of the 50 emblems presented consists of a motto, print, epigram, and a three-part musical setting of the epigram, followed by an exposition of its meaning. In the new publication of this important 17th-century work, Dr. H. M. E. de Jong translates the mottos and epigrams of the original 50 emblems and provides a summary of both Maier& 96;s exposition and a commentary on each emblem. She discuisses the meaning and importance of the Atalanta Fugiens, the sources Maier used, and the mutual relationships between the emblems. She also includes an additional 30 alchemical engravings that explain her research, including several hard-to-find foldouts reproduced here in this volume. De Jong shows how Maier borrowed mottos from old alchemical sources and that the emblems have a number of meanings and express ideas from alchemy, medicine, and the Rosicrucian system. The inter-relationships that can be shown to exist between the emblems give an added depth to the meaning of each. Download links : | | |
