In 1988 an Arabic copy of an ancient Greek alchemical text by the first alchemist, Zosimos of Panopolis (3rd/4th century, CE), entitled "Mushaf as-suwar," "The Book of Pictures," was discovered languishing in an Istanbul library. The subsequent translation of this important document into English has resulted in the discovery of a kind of bridge between the ancient roots of alchemy and the later and more abstract texts of Latin alchemy. From this, a more resolute understanding of the psychological meaning behind symbolic alchemy can be ascertained. Marie-Louise von Franz is said to have commented that "The Book of Pictures" is an essential document for western civilization for the way it illustrates how to deal with the collective unconscious. This lecture will introduce the material, explore the possible meaning of Dr. Von Franz’s statement, and consider the psychological insights hidden within a selection of pictures.
