"Secretum secretorum" has been spuriously attributed to Aristotle. Work is a medieval treatise taking the form of a pseudoepigraphical letter supposedly from Aristotle to Alexander the Great during his campaigns in Persia. First Latin translation was issued in 12th century based on a 10th century Arabic encyclopedic treatise called "Kitab sirr al-asrar" discussing a wide range of topics, including statecraft, ethics, physiognomy, astrology, alchemy, magic and medicine.
