Rasavidyā

Computer-based analysis of Indian alchemy (DFG project).

The project Rasavidyā is the first systematic study of the material culture of medieval Indian alchemy. This website presents the alchemical corpus on which this study is based (links "Query" and "Texts") and the descriptions of alchemical procedures which are coded in a a newly developed language model (links "Noun ontology" and "Verbal ontology").

A description of the project in German is available via this link.
