Paracelsus, n.Definitions

Paracelsus (n.) cannot ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠be fitted into any stereotype, Jung insisted: a paradox and true mirror of his century, he remains like Agrippa a figure of unsolved mysteries.

Paracelsus (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠impossible to be fair to: one can only underestimate him or overestimate him — dreary stretches of nonsense alternating with oases so illuminating one fears one has missed the main point.
