First Modern Translation

Only antiquated translations exist. This is the first modern English translation.

The work 'Tyrocinium Chymicum' by Jean Beguin was translated into English in the 17th century (e.g., the 1669 edition found in Open Library and Internet Archive). As these are antiquated translations, there is no modern scholarly translation of this specific Latin text.
