摘要

摘要:我们的文章描述了丹尼森大学特别收藏的一份以前不为人知的15世纪炼金术手稿，调查了它在北美小型机构拥有的数千份中世纪文本对象中的总体位置，并概述了围绕它构建的交互式数字项目的特征。手稿的主要文本，鲁佩西萨的约翰的《国粹思考》(约1351年完成)，提供了一个不同寻常的组合，在抗议写作，启示主义和医学化学的历史上有趣的案例研究。手稿(写于1459年)和它的抄写传统进一步提出了必要的项目，本科生和公民学者，以及手稿专家，可能会发现令人信服的。

Midwestern Alchemy: The Global Context of a Small-Town Manuscript

Abstract:Our essay describes a previously unknown fifteenth-century alchemical manuscript in Denison University’s Special Collections, surveys its general position among the thousands of medieval text objects owned by smaller institutions in North America, and outlines the features of an interactive digital project to be constructed around it. The main text in the manuscript, John of Rupescissa’s Consideration of Quintessence (composed c. 1351), offers an unusual combination of interesting case studies in protest-writing, apocalypticism, and the history of medical chemistry. The manuscript (written 1459) and its scribal tradition further present needful projects, which undergraduate students and citizen-scholars, as well as manuscript specialists, may find compelling.
