The 4 elements

According to the alchemy the elementary particles would consist of four Elements: the Earth; the Water; the Air and The Fire. Although the traditions indicate the Air as one of four elements, according to new translations on Empédocle, in particular that from English Peter Kingsley in 1995, it would not still be about the Air, that we spell A.E.R but of the arther which spells A.R.T.H.E.R, which means the all. Empédocle he even translated it by the Sky.
So in other traditions as gold chain of Homère the alchimique German of XVII ème century, attributed to Doctor Autrichien Anton Joseph Kirchweger. Four elements are the Sky, the Air, the Earth and the Water. However the work confuses voluntarily the Sky and the Fire. Aristote let presuppose that there were maybe five well elements in four who called it the Ether. As it was confused the Sky and the Air, either the Fire is not in all the elements in a visible way or igneous?

I am not sure where you wish to go with the "elements" but as far as alchemy is concerned in relation to the Work, focusing on the external elements is a distraction.

Laura's "Secret History" has detailed information on the nature of alchemy. You can also do a search on alchemy on this forum to look at discussions on the topic.

Thank you for the information. I say just by synthesizing the translations of English Kingsley and from German Kirchweger, the fire is not an element. The sky is an element. The fire it is the nitre and the salt (VITRIOL) which is in 4 elements.
For the vague series unfortunately the Volume 5 is not translated into French.

Perhaps you should post such things on your own personal blog? There is really no reason to post them here. I've noticed that several times you've posted things that are just statements, and don't really add anything to the conversation, or even ask a question. There is really no reason to do this since it just adds noise to the forum. Personal blogs are great for such statements, though.
 
OK ANART, maybe that my not much knowledge persuade me that every idea is a revelation. I am going to try more rigorous.
