Directions : Read the passage carefully to answer the questions that follow.
The earliest authentic works on European alchemy are those of the English monk Roger Bacon and the
German philosopher St. Albertus Magnus. In their treatises they maintained that gold was the perfect
metal and that inferior metals such as lead and mercury were removed by various degrees of
imperfection from gold. They further asserted that these base metals could be transmuted to gold by
blending them with a substance even more perfect than gold. This elusive substance was referred to as
the “philosopher’s stone”.
Most of the early alchemists were artisans who were accustomed to keeping trade secrets and often
resorted to cryptic terminology to record the progress of their work. The term sun was used for gold,
moon for silver, and the five known planets for base metals. This convention of substituting symbolic
language attracted a group of mystical philosophers who compared the search for the perfect metal with
the struggle of mankind for the perfection of the soul. The philosophers began to use the artisan’s terms
in the mystical literature that they produced. Thus, by the fourteenth century, alchemy had developed
two distinct groups of practitioners – the laboratory alchemist and the literary alchemist. Both groups of
alchemists continued to work throughout the history of alchemy, but, of course, it was the literary
alchemist who was most likely to produce a written record; therefore, much of what is known about the
science of alchemy is derived from philosophers rather than from the alchemists who laboured in
laboratories.
