Zusammenfassung: | Based on unpublished manuscripts, the article reveals the keen interest shown by Marcelin Berthelot in Indian alchemy. The French savant actually inspired and encouraged the first historical research in this field, undertaken at the end of the last century, in Calcutta, by the Bengali scientist Prafulla Chandra Rây. Coming to France in order to pay homage to Berthelot, he was received by him at the Academy of Sciences of Paris in March 1905. |
