Paracelsus
Paracelsus (1493-1541), real name Theophrastus Bombastus, was a Swiss physician, alchemist, and mystic, born at Einsiedeln, in Schwyz. He was a violent revolutionary in the medical art, and provoked much hostility, so that he was driven to lead a wandering and unsettled life. Notwithstanding, he contributed not a little, by his knowledge and practice, to inaugurate a more scientific study of nature than till his time prevailed.Nearby pages
