[From Google Translate: Alchemy has always been surrounded by mystery. It is by placing it in its historical and scientific context that it can best be understood, far from witchcraft, magic or astrology, with which it is often confused. The richly illustrated itinerary to which the reader is invited here is that of an exhibition held at the library of Blois on the basis of old books and rare manuscripts, from public collections, but also private funds, some of whose elements are presented here for the very first time.]
