Becoming Gold

Zosimos of Panopolis and the Alchemical Arts in Roman Egypt

by Shannon Grimes

A study of Zosimos as a practitioner rooted in the craft traditions and religious life of Roman Egypt. Grimes connects his alchemy with metallurgy, dyeing and temple culture, and reads his spiritual language as part of a lived practice rather than as pure allegory.
