Outlandish alchemist and magician, political intelligencer,
apocalyptic prophet, and converser with angels, John Dee
(1527-1609) was one of the most colorful and controversial figures
of the Tudor world. In this fascinating book-the first full-length
biography of Dee based on primary historical sources-Glyn Parry
explores Dee's vast array of political, magical, and scientific
writings and finds that they cast significant new light on policy
struggles in the Elizabethan court, conservative attacks on magic,
and Europe's religious wars. John Dee was more than just a fringe
magus, Parry shows: he was a major figure of the Reformation and
Renaissance.
