		Libavius was born in about 1540 in Halle, Germany, where his father was a linen weaver.
		Libavius believed that alchemy would prove to have benefits to physicians, and most of his chemical work was concerned with its reference to medicine.

		As pertains to the question of essence, Libavius claims that the individual parts of any didactic science must be homogeneous.
		For chymia is not one of the abstract arts, but, says Libavius, one that is “born in material things and by means of action, so that something useful may result.” This does not mean, however, that the teacher of chemistry, or even the chemist himself, must work with his own hands.
		In this regard, it is important to understand the relationship between manual and didactic tasks as they relate to chemistry in the early modern period.

	HYLE 4-1 (1998): Alchemy as donum dei
		A typical representative of these practicians was Andreas Libavius (?1550-1616) whose Alchemia of 1597 is sometimes denoted as the first textbook of chemistry.[24] It is a matter of discussion if this optimistic judgment could be accepted completely, but the systematic approach chosen by the author yields the picture of a textbook.
		Keeping in mind that Libavius lived in the pious environment of Renaissance Europe, it is interesting to note that his views diverge in the same direction as those of Theophilus four centuries earlier.
		Libavius thinks of the ancients, under which term he means alchemists, that " wenn sie es so wollen, mögen sie ihre Arkana für sich behalten, nur sollen sie wissen, daß sich die Sonne nicht verdunkeln und die Welt nicht schlechter leben wird, wenn auch weder sie selbst noch ihre Arkana jemals ans Licht hervorkriechen”.

		Title : Chemists and Cultures in Early Modern Germany: Andreas Libavius and his War of Words Abstract : Libavius was one of the most prolific writers of the early modern era yet only scant attention has been given to his writings by historians of science.
		In over twenty large volumes he defended his own understanding of the dignity and disciplinary nature of chemistry and contended with the philosophical claims, laboratory procedures, and interpretations of nature proffered by Paracelsian empirics, court physicians, literate artisans, and members of academic faculties.
		By analyzing the broader social and intellectual content of the chemical-medical debates surrounding Libavius and by exploring the dynamics of cultural exchange within and between local chemical communities, the project will suggest new ways of understanding the history of chemistry.

	Book by Andrea Libavius in the the Rosicrucian archive
		Written by Andreas Libavius, one of those seemingly "critical" of the Rosicrucian.
		But it is known that he knew and was a personal friend of the Rosicrucian Grand Master Johan Valentine Andreae.
		Libavius was perhaps not as "critical" of the Rosicrucians as it appeared because, in addition to his friendship with J.V. Andreae, he was a brilliant alchemy pupil of Paracelso.

		Andreas Libavius was born at Halle in Germany in 1540, where he studied medicine and practised for a short time as a physician.
		Libavius was a man possessed of keen powers of observation; and his work on Chemistry, which contains a full account of the knowledge of the science of his time, may be regarded as the first text-book of Chemistry.

		It was frequently asserted that such authors were advocating methods of acquiring knowledge or healing the body, such as amulets and the weapon salve, which, if they worked, could only do so through the intervention of the Devil.
		Authors who allied themselves with the utopian, millenarian and pansophical aspirations associated with the Rosicrucian movement, such as Robert Fludd and Michael Maier, were at pains to assert their religious orthodoxy when attacked by Kepler, Mersenne or Libavius.
		Although alchemical ideas continued to be explored throughout the 18th century, during the 19th century, the rise of the new focussed sciences of physics, chemistry, biology etc., led to alchemy being marginalised and considered irrelevant to this emerging new scientific attitude.
