Les alchimistes au Moyen Âge
Qui n'aura entendu parler des vieux alchimistes du Moyen Age, aeuvrant en quelque sombre laboratoire, fugitivement éclairé par la lueur rougeoyante des flammes de l'athanor (fourneau hermétique) ? Serge Hutin les fait revivre à travers leurs mystérieux travaux poursuivis malgré échecs et déceptions, menaces et traverses. Que cherchaient-ils donc avec cette ardeur passionnée ? N'aspiraient-ils qu'à trouver les formules d'un extraordinaire enrichissement magique ? Leur quête n'aurait-elle pas comporté un aspect spirituel, sacré, impliquant une vision du monde radicalement opposée aux conceptions scientifiques courantes ?

Leur quête n'aurait-elle pas comporté un aspect spirituel, sacré, impliquant une vision du monde radicalement opposée aux conceptions scientifiques courantes ?
Comment devenait-on alchimiste ? Dans quels milieux de la société médiévale se recrutaient les adeptes ? Quels furent les rapports exacts des alchimistes avec l'Église, l'Université, les Grands, la Couronne ? Autant de questions auxquelles l'auteur répond au fil de ces pages empreintes de rigueur historique et de ferveur, tout en évoquant maintes silhouettes d'artistes obscurs en même temps que les alchimistes les plus célèbres comme Nicolas Flamel et son épouse Dame Pernelle.
