Hohenheim, known by the name of Paracelsus, and the substance of his teachings concerning cosmology, anthropology, pneumatol- ogy, magic and sorcery, medicine, alchemy and astrology, philoso- phy and theosophy, extracted and translated from his rare and extensive works and from some unpublished manuscripts. London, 1887. pp. xiii-220, 8vo.
The scope of this work is indicated in its title. It contains a bibliography of Paracelsus and an Explanation of Terms occurring in his writings. The author affects a mystical treatment of the subject.
