    What do Harry Potter and Nicolas Flamel have to do with creating a periodic table? – Jason Baker Sep 25 '16 at 2:18
  • Flamel created the Philosopher's Stone, right? Alchemy... Chemistry... – miltonaut Sep 25 '16 at 6:17

    Maybe Mendeleev was one of Flamel's alter egos. – user68762 Sep 25 '16 at 8:00

[...] for the discovery of the twelve uses of dragon's blood, and his work on alchemy with his partner, Nicolas Flamel. Professor Dumbledore enjoys chamber music and tenpin bowling.

"I'm tellin' yeh, yer wrong!" said Hagrid hotly. "I don' know why Harry's broom acted like that, but Snape wouldn' try an' kill a student! Now, listen to me, all three of yeh -- yer meddlin' in things that don' concern yeh. It's dangerous. You forget that dog, an' you forget what it's guardin', that's between Professor Dumbledore an' Nicolas Flamel --"

"Oh, we're not working," Harry told him brightly. "Ever since you mentioned Nicolas Flamel we've been trying to find out who he is."

"We just want to know who Nicolas Flamel is, that's all," said Hermione.


They had indeed been searching books for Flamel's name ever since Hagrid had let it slip, because how else were they going to find out what Snape was trying to steal? The trouble was, it was very hard to know where to begin, not knowing what Flamel might have done to get himself into a book. He wasn't in Great Wizards of the Twentieth Century, or Notable Magical Names of Our Time; he was missing, too, from Important Modern Magical Discoveries, and A Study of Recent Developments in Wizardry. And then, of course, there was the sheer size of the library; tens of thousands of books; thousands of shelves; hundreds of narrow rows.

Hermione took out a list of subjects and titles she had decided to search while Ron strode off down a row of books and started pulling them off the shelves at random. Harry wandered over to the Restricted Section. He had been wondering for a while if Flamel wasn't somewhere in there. Unfortunately, you needed a specially signed note from one of the teachers to look in any of the restricted books, and he knew he'd never get one. These were the books containing powerful Dark Magic never taught at Hogwarts, and only read by older students studying advanced Defense Against the Dark Arts.

He'd be able to read as long as he liked, as long as it took to find out who Flamel was. He set off, drawing the invisibility cloak tight around him as he walked.

Anyway, maybe it only shows dead people. Shame about notfinding Flamel, though.

Harry couldn't eat. He had seen his parents and would be seeing them again tonight. He had almost forgotten about Flamel.

She was torn between horror at the idea of Harry being out of bed, roaming the school three nights in a row ("If Filch had caught you!"), and disappointment that he hadn't at least found out who Nicolas Flamel was.

"Hermione, the exams are ages away."

"Ten weeks," Hermione snapped. "That's not ages, that's like a second to Nicolas Flamel."

"Yer not still lookin' fer Nicolas Flamel, are yeh?"

"Destroyed?" said Harry blankly. "But your friend -- Nicolas Flamel --"

Page 244

"So the Stone's gone?" said Ron finally. "Flamel's just going to die?"

He not only won every prize of note that the school offered, he was soon in regular correspondence with the most notable magical names of the day, including Nicolas Flamel, the celebrated alchemist; Bathilda Bagshot, the noted historian; and Adalbert Waffling, the magical theoretician.

Had he thought that there would be time; that he would live for years, for centuries, perhaps, like his friend Nicolas Flamel?

    You included all the mentions of “Flamel,” so good work. But there are a few mentions of “Nicolas” too, without the “Flamel.” Maybe you should add those. – Adamant Sep 25 '16 at 4:20
