Note 118 — Chapter IV · THE ALCHEMICAL STUDIES OF SCOT
Reading edition
In the editions of 1622 and 1659, Argentorati. It has been stated that the Quaestio Curiosa is a chapter taken from the Liber Introductorius of Michael Scot. The alternative title of that work, Judicia Quaestionum would seem to favour this idea, and may in fact have suggested it. But an examination of the Liber Introductorius (MS. Bodl. 266), which I have caused to be made, proves that the statement referred to is without foundation. It was advanced in a paper read before the Scottish Society of Antiquaries by Mr. John Small, and printed in their Proceedings, vol. xi. p. 179.
