{ "item_title" : "Alchemy", "item_author" : [" Robert Hillyer", "Beatrice Stevens "], "item_description" : "Alchemy: A Symphonic Poem is a book written by Robert Hillyer and published in 1920. It is a collection of poems that explore the theme of alchemy, a medieval practice that aimed to transform base metals into gold and create the elixir of life. The book is divided into five parts, each representing a stage in the alchemical process - nigredo, albedo, citrinitas, rubedo, and the philosopher's stone. The poems in each section are rich in imagery and symbolism, drawing on alchemical motifs such as the crucible, the furnace, and the retort. The book is considered a classic of modernist poetry and has been praised for its musicality, its use of language, and its exploration of the human condition. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of alchemy or the development of modern poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
