Summary: F M van Helmont's "Alphabet of Nature" was one of many books published about language in the early modern period. At issue were questions about whether language is natural or artificial, ordained by God or created by man. It is therefore not surprising that van Helmont wrote his book while imprisoned. This work covers this topic.
