Short Alchemical Tracts and Receipts in Italian (Manuscript, c. 1470)

Anonymous Italian scribes (two hands)

Public domain

Italian manuscript of about 1470 of short alchemical tracts and receipts followed by medical, technical and alchemical receipts by a second hand; the catalogue notes its opening epistle is a variant not described in Thorndike. Unique manuscript: a handwritten codex held in the Wellcome Library's Western Manuscripts collection, so no second copy of this particular text-witness exists. Digitized by the Wellcome Collection and released under its Public Domain Mark.
