Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim, known as Paracelsus (died September 24, 1541), was a Swiss-German Renaissance-era alchemist, physician, and medical reformer. Al-Ṭibb al-jadīd al-kīmiyāʼī alladhī ikhtaraʻahu Barākalsūs (The new chemical medicine invented by Paracelsus) is an anthology of alchemical works from Europe. The first part consists of an Arabic translation of Paracelsus including an introduction, and four chapters (each divided further into sections). The introduction is an overview by Hermes Trismegistus, called “the Egyptian,” of the invention of alchemy, its subsequent transfer to the Hellenistic and Islamic worlds, and its focus on the treatment and perfection of metals. The introduction also discusses Paracelsus and his transformation of alchemy into a field of medicine, with its dual focus on the perfection and purification of metals, as well as on preserving the health of the human body. Chapter one is entitled al-Juz’ al-naẓarī min ashyā’ gharība wa huwa al-ṭibb al-kīmīyā’ī fī al-umūr al-ṭabī‘īya (On the speculative part of paranormal objects, i.e., alchemical medicine in regard to the affairs of nature). This chapter includes a discussion of such topics as al-hayūlā al-ūlā wa al-sirr al-akbar (prime matter and the great secret). The second chapter, entitled Asās ṭibbal-kīmīyā (On the principles of alchemical medicine), has sections on asbāb al-amrāḍ (the causes of illnesses), al-nabḍ (the pulse), and al-ʻalāj al-kullī (general treatments). The third chapter, Bayān kayfīyat tadbīr al-adwīya (An explication of the manner of managing medicines), discusses chemical procedures involving metals and minerals. The fourth chapter, Fī al-ʻamalīyāt (On operations), discusses such procedures as the distillation of water. The second part of this anthology consists of an Arabic translation of the alchemical works of Oswald Crollius (died December 1609), a physician and alchemist who was influenced by Paracelsus. In the present manuscript, spaces for some of the section headings originally were left blank and subsequently filled; this was done in apparent haste as can be seen from the occasional scribal error. The majority of the second part of the work is written by a different hand (the scribe identifies himself in the colophon as Sayyid Shir Shah), is unrubricated, and appears to have had a different binding. The manuscript is undated. The scribe’s name and the nasta’liq script used throughout the work identify the likely provenance of the manuscript as Iran, Afghanistan, or India.
