S?dziwój, otherwise known as Michael Sendivogius, was a Polish alchemist and diplomat who lived a fascinating life in the 16th and 17th century. His groundbreaking alchemical works, which were much valued by the likes of Isaac Newton and Antoine Lavoisier, were milestones on the path to the discovery of oxygen.S?dziwój's most important alchemic conclusion was that air contains a "food of life", a substance that "gives life to everything", which is also contained by saltpeter (potassium nitrate). In his works, amongst others in Treatise on Salt which was written around 1598, one can find proof that S?dziwój knew that saltpetre, in certain conditions, releases this "food of life". This shows that the Pole was the first one to write about the existence of oxygen and also knew how to obtain this element (saltpetre, when heated appropriately, releases oxygen). In his alchemical system this element was called, amongst others, "the food of life" and "the Spirit of the World". Joseph Priestly and Antoine Lavoisier who are usually alternatively credited with discovering oxygen gas in the 1770s both were acquainted with S?dziwój's works. Also Isaac Newton, who was a collector and admirer of S?dziwój's books, was familiar with the Pole's ideas." (Marek K?pa) "Isaac Newton actively experimented with alchemy over a span of some four decades, from his first serious engagement with the sciences in the mid-1660s up until the first decade of the eighteenth century when he became President of the Royal Society and was knighted. Throughout this period, Newton kept careful records of his alchemical experiments and copied numerous books and manuscripts on the subject. He was heavily influenced by such popular alchemical authors as the Polish courtier and mining expert Michael Sendivogius." (Newton's Alchemical Sublimations- William R. Newman). ESTC R203736.
