Well first things first, Welcome to the Org. Peter Pan !!!

Now for your question,

I myself don't know the answer to your question , it isn't my area of expertise so to speak.

Though posting your question over here, at the Monastery ( right here at the org ) will probably help.

If your posting priviliges don't let you post your question ( since your still a junior Member ),then I'd be glad to be of help by posting your question for you.

Alchemists were never related to the church. The Church always renegated them. Just like a not wanted plague.

As for detailed history about them, just find books about alchemy.

And welcome.

to edyzmedieval :are there not secret relationship between monastery and alchemist?it seems many alchemists are monks.thank you for your advice,i will search through it.

Actually monks were book-men. They really didn't have knowledge apart from the Antiquity knowledge. So no, no special relationship.
