Meer over het boek

Delving into the life of John Dee, the book explores his multifaceted roles as a mathematician, astronomer, and occultist during the reign of Elizabeth I. It highlights his significant contributions to alchemy, divination, and Hermetic philosophy, along with his extensive library. As a political advisor, Dee advocated for English colonial expansion and is noted for coining the term "British Empire." His later years were marked by a quest for deeper occult knowledge, controversial associations, and allegations of espionage, painting a complex portrait of a man straddling science and mysticism.
