Melchior CibinensisMelchior Cibinensis was a Hungarian alchemical writer active in the first part of the sixteenth century. He is known for the Processus sub forma missae, an alchemical mass[1], now dated to around 1525; it was published in the Theatrum Chemicum of 1602, and formed part of a celebrated later collection Symbola aureae mensae from 1617 of Michael Maier.[2] Additional recommended knowledgeThe identity of Melchoir is still a subject of debate. The candidate proposed by Carl Jung was Nicolas Melchior Szebeni.[3] This Nicolas was chaplain and from 1490 court astrologer to Vladislaus II of Bohemia and Hungary to whom the Processus was dedicated.[4] It has more recently been proposed that Melchior was a pseudonym of Nicolaus Olahus.[5] Another name given is Menyhért Miklós.[6] References
