	Sylph - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term "Sylph" originates in Paracelsus, who describes sylphs as invisible beings of the air, his elementals of air.
		In a parody of heroic poetry, and in particular the sometimes esoterically Classical heroic poetry of the 18th century in England and France, Pope pretends to have a new alchemy, where the sylph is the condensed humors of peevish women.
		In Pope's poem, women who are full of spleen and vanity turn into sylphs when they die because their spirits are too full of dark vapors to ascend to the skies.
