La Turba Philosophorum est un traite dont l'original arabe est perdu, et qui est l'un des textes fondateurs de l'alchimie latine. Mais son interet depasse de loin l'histoire de l'alchimie : s'alimentant a des sources aussi diverses que Zosime de Panopolis, Stephanos d'Alexandrie ou, plus surprenant, Hippolyte de Rome, la Turba se situe au confluent de nombreuses traditions grecques (philosophiques, hermetiques et patristiques), et porte temoignage a la fois de l'histoire de la transmission du savoir grec, et de celle de sa reception dans l'Egypte du IXe siecle. L'etude de la structure du traite montre en outre l'exceptionnelle originalite du projet philosophique de son auteur : construire un cheminement permettant au lecteur de s'approprier la doctrine des "philosophes" grecs.The Turba Philosophorum is a treatise whose Arabic original is lost, and which is one of the founding texts of Latin alchemy. But its interest goes far beyond the history of alchemy: using sources as different as Zosimus of Panopolis, Stephanos of Alexandria or, more surprising, Hippolyte of Rome, the Turba is at the confluence of many Greek traditions (philosophical, hermetic and patristic), and bears testimony both to the history of the transmission of Greek knowledge, and of its reception in Egypt in the ninth century. The study of the structure of the treatise also shows the exceptional originality of the philosophical project of its author: to construct a path allowing the reader to appropriate the doctrine of Greek "philosophers".
