John Dee is sometimes refered to as the last magician because of his services to Queen Elizabeth 1 as her astrologer. Dee was a renowned alchemist, mathematician, astronomer and astrologer. He was well learned in neoplatonic, kabbalistic and hermetic philosophy. His writings are said to have influenced Shakespeare. Dee frequently consulted mediums in his attempts to communicate with spirits. Born in London, July 13, 1527, Dee enrolled at St. Johns College in Cambridge at age 15. He had an intense interest in magic and alchemy. Finding Cambridge a bit stifling he went to the Continent to study and lecture. Dee had money problems and in some ways alchemy provided the answer. He thought that communicating with the spirits might also help him find treasure. Dee a Christian, sought only communication with angels and had no interest in black magic. He was also intensly interested in his dreams. Dee returned to England and was given a pension by Edward V1. But Edward died at 16 and this once again left him in an awkward financial situation. Dee cast the horoscope for Queen Mary and later visited Marys half sister Elizabeth in jail to determine when Mary would die. Dee was accused of black magic and jailed. He was released in 1555. Mary died in 1558. When Elizabeth became Queen she consulted Dee on many matters. He even gave Elizabeth mystical interpretations of his writings. Dee was granted a generous pension by Elizabeth and spent years travelling, some say as a spy for Elizabeth.

Home Site Map Aleister Crowley John Dee Dr Simon Forman Roger Bacon Mother Shipton Golden Dawn John Dee John Dee Page 2 John Dee was an eminent Elizabethan mathematician and astrologer. His studies into the Occult took him abroad on many occasions, and this has added weight to the suspicion that he was also a secret government agent (code name 007). He was employed teaching navigation to Naval Captains for 30 years, but is most well known for his active involvement in occult thought and practice.
Dee was born near London on the 13th of July 1527. His father was a gentleman server in the court of King Henry VIII. John claimed to be a descendant of Roderick the Great, a Prince of Wales.
In 1542 at the age of 15, Dee entered Cambridge College and graduated in 1544 with a BA. In 1546 he was made a fellow of Trinity College, and appointed the role of Greek underwriter. 1547 found Dee visiting the Holland and France, mixing with some of the key members of academic society. He was living in Louvain by 1548. Dee spent a few months lecturing geometry in Paris, and declined the offer of a permanent appointment in Sorbonne. He also taught at both Louvain and Brussels Universities. Returning to England in 1551, he was given the job of teaching navigation and mathematics to Naval Captains.
During the reign of Queen Mary Tudor (Bloody Mary), Dee was arrested and accused of attempting to kill her with sorcery. He was imprisoned in Hampton Court in 1553. The reason behind his imprisonment may have been a horoscope that he cast for Elizabeth, Mary's sister and heiress to the throne. The horoscope was to ascertain when Mary would die. He was finally released in 1555 after being set free and re-arrested on charges of heresy. In 1556 Queen Mary gave him a full pardon.

Home Site Map Aleister Crowley John Dee Dr Simon Forman Roger Bacon Mother Shipton Golden Dawn John Dee John Dee Page 1 As the claims of Kelly and his abilities grew, the pair's fame flourished, even in continental Europe. With fame came a source of income, which Dee used to fund his experiments into metal transmutation. Dee also claimed to have found the 'Elixir Vitae' (The alchemical elixir of life or philosophers stone) hidden in the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey.
The Polish Albert Laski, Count Palatire of Siradz, descendant of the Anglo-Norman Lacies, came to England in search of Dee and Kelly. He was duped by Edward Kelly and his scrying ability, into believing great things were meant him. Indeed a great many messages were received from the Spirit realm concerning Laski, Kelly, Dee, and European politics.
In 1583 Dee and Kelly convinced Laski to return to Poland, taking the two Englishmen and their wives with him. They set about trying to transmute iron into gold to fund their regeneration of Europe. Although they were always just on the brink of success, the experimental transmutation experiments never worked.
While Dee was away in Europe things were not boding well at home. In 1583 a large mob attacked Dee's home in at Mortlake in Surrey destroying his collection of books, occult instruments and personal belongings. The attack was probably in response to rumours that Dee was a wizard.

Click here for audio of Episode 474. Today, a mathematical magician helps end magic. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. J ohn Dee was born in England in 1527. When he died in 1607, he left us all wondering: was he a mathematician or a sorcerer? Dee graduated from Cambridge at 18. He went on to study and lecture in Europe, and his reputation soared. He studied navigation with the same Mercator who gave us the map projection. An explorer later offered to give Dee Canada in exchange for his knowledge of maps. Dee was expert in astronomy, astrology, math, alchemy, and much more. The Protestant rulers Edward and Elizabeth consulted him. But so did Catholic Queen Mary. The lines between astronomy, astrology, alchemy, and magic were very fuzzy in Dee's time. Maybe we saw our ignorance of nature's forces more clearly then than we do now. Dee raised essential questions about knowledge. Still, he looked for answers in a magic crystal as well as in a chemical retort.

Dee John "Monade geroglifica", Monas Hyerogliphica "Demonologia" , in seguito divenuto il testo dei cacciatori di streghe, lo trattò sfavorevolmente, ma gli permise di vivere in relativa pace per il resto della sua vita. Morì nel 1608, e fu sepolto nella Chiesa di Mortlake. Fu uno scrittore prolifico, produsse numerosi libri e manoscritti lungo l'arco della sua vita. Queste opere coprirono svariati argomenti: le arti, le scienze e la filosofia furono tutti rappresentanti in ammirevoli ed eruditi dettagli, alcuni così lunghi e complessi che i tipografi rifiutavano di accettarli. Nel 1570 egli pubblicò il suo ampiamente acclamato " Introduzione alla matematica " per l'edizione inglese di " Geometria di Euclide ", traduzione di Sir Henry Billingsley, Londra, 1570, un lavoro di grande originalità ed erudizione, che esercitò grande influenza sul pensiero scientifico del sedicesimo secolo. A parte i suoi scopi letterari, fu un prodigioso collezionista di libri. La sua biblioteca contenne circa tremila volumi e parecchie centinaia di manoscritti, superiore a qualsiasi altra raccolta nel mondo Elisabettiano. Questi, insieme con un vasto apparato di documenti celtici, antichi sigilli e genealogie, furono conservati nella sua casa di Mortlake. La casa di Mortlake ospitò anche la sua collezione di strumenti scientifici: astrolabi, quadranti, globi, ogni sorta di strumenti ottici e di navigazione stipati nei suoi laboratori. Nella sua "

"Enochian" Materials
Welcome to the John Dee Publication Project's web-site. The major purpose of this site is to distribute primary-source materials relevant to the "Enochian" work of John Dee and Edward Kelly, particularly reconstructions of Dee's Spirit Diaries, from the original manuscripts. Most of the materials here are presented in Adobe Acrobat PDF format, as it is the best means I have discovered to present this work in a uniform manner which is accessible to users of most computer platforms. The Adobe Acrobat Reader also allows one to view the graphics in much higher resolution than would be possible with GIF or JPEG images, and to print them out on laser printers with quality approaching PostScript files. The latest version of the Acrobat Reader can be downloaded free from Adobe's web-site
The following documents are electronic reconstructions of the first three books of John Dee's Quinti Libri Mysteriorum , the original of which is Sloane MS. 3188 in the British Library. They are all three in Acrobat PDF format. These works attempt to follow the layout of Dee's original diaries. I have expanded Latin abbreviations, and have regularized "i" "j" and "u" "v" to make the reading experience less jarring. Other than that, it follows Dee's spelling exactly.

He was wearing a curious cap that encircled his head and face down to the chin. The cap was never removed and was invariably mentioned when descriptions of him were circulated. This strange headdress served to hide the place where his ears had been they had just been cut off in London as a punishment for forgery. The innkeeper knew Kelly by the alias with which he introduced himself (Edward Talbot), but the man recognized a person of learning. One night, the innkeeper brought out a tattered old book. He was accustomed to showing his customers, as a curiosity, an unintelligible old manuscript. He showed it to Kelly, who was quite well aware of the profit sometimes to be derived from old papers, and inquired the origin of the manuscript. It appeared that a few years before, during the religious wars, some Protestant soldiers had rifled the grave of a Catholic bishop, who, during his lifetime, had been a very rich man. In the grave they found this manuscript and two ivory balls, one red and the other white. They broke the red ball and, finding in it nothing but a dark powder, threw it away. The manuscript and the white ball they had left with the innkeeper in exchange for a few bottles of wine. Even as the innkeeper was showing Kelly the manuscript, his children were playing with the white ball.

John Dee 's father was Roland Dee who was of Welsh descent. Roland Dee dealt in textiles and, in addition, was a gentleman sewer at the court of Henry VIII. In this latter capacity he would have made clothing for the royal household as well as buying and supplying fabrics for the King. John Dee's mother was Jane Wild. Jane married Roland when she was fifteen years of age and, three years later, John (who was their first and only child) was born. John was educated at a school in Chelmsford in Essex from 1535, then entered St. John's College, Cambridge in November of 1542. There he studied Greek, Latin, philosophy, geometry, arithmetic and astronomy. Woolley writes [10]:- He was so eager to learn, he later recalled, so "vehemently bent to study", that he worked eighteen hours a day, allowing just four hours for sleep and two for meals. Mathematics was his passion ... During 1546, his final year as an undergraduate, he began to make astronomical observations. Using a quadrant and a cross-staff he made (as he later wrote in

Home Chapter 10. John Dee and Astrological Physics 1. A relatively late exemplar of a person who united astronomy/astrology with mathematics and recommended observation of nature was John Dee. Dee was born in London in 1527 and died in Mortlake, Surrey, in 1608. The following details of his life are based on the work by Nicholas H. Clulee, John Dee's Natural Philosophy 2. Subsequently Dee found favor at the court of Queen Elizabeth (who acceded in 1558) and to some extent with the queen herself, especially by way of Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester and son of John Dudley, and William Cecil, Elizabeth's principal secretary. (Clulee, p. 121-123). In 1558, Dee published a work commonly called the Propaedumata aphoristica (Aphoristic Introduction) , and a second edition of the work in 1568.. The second edition has been translated into English by Wayne Shumaker in John Dee on Astronomy (1978), which also contains an essay on Dee's mathematics and physics by J. L. Heilbron. Shumaker's translation of the full title is: An Aphoristic Introduction by John Dee of London Concerning Certain Outstanding Virtues of Nature.

Edward Kelly was born in 1555 in the county of Lancashire. Nothing is known about his early life, but after being convicted of counterfeiting, he was sentenced to the pillory at Lancaster where he lost his ears. Then he moved to Worcester, becoming an apothecary and an alchemist necromancy A True and Faithful Relation The Necronomicon , that frightened both Dee and his family. Dee is said to have found a copy of the Necronomicon , given to him by the alchemist Jacob Eliezer known as the "Black Rabbi" (this book does exist and was the basis of Kelly and Dee¹s Endochian magic, Crowley¹s The Book of the Law and H.P Lovecraft¹s Cthulthu Mythos). Shortly after that Dee returned to England along with his family. As for the final fate of Kelly, he continued to attempt to dupe people in Germany, claiming that he had the philosopher¹s stone and the elixir vitæ as before, but not finding as much interest as before. Eventually he was arrested as a heretic and a sorcerer in Prague, and again in southern Germany. But, after the second imprisonment he attempted to escape from his prison, only managing to fall and brake two of his ribs and both legs. He died in 1593 due to his injuries.
Dr. John Dee, despite his apparent delusions, was one of the keenest minds of his time. He his credited for making the calculations that would enable England to use the Gregorian calendar, he championed the preservation and the collection of historic documents and he was very well known for being a great astronomer and mathematician. It could be said that Dr. Dee was the one of the first modern scientists, although he was one of the last serious alchemists, necromancers and crystal gazers.

Dee, John (1527-1608) English mathematician and astrologer , who was adviser to Queen Elizabeth I on occult matters. In 1555, during the reign of Mary Tudor, Dee was imprisoned briefly under suspicion of using enchantments against the Queen. It seems that Elizabeth I held him in high regard, although Dee himself appeared to have little or no psychic ability. He claimed to be able to communicate with angelic beings, and to be skilled in scrying , but actually employed seers to transcribe alleged angelic communications for him. Dee was born at Mortlake, at that time a village on the Thames outside London. Young Dee had a retentive memory and early proved an apt pupil. At the age of 15 he went to St. John's College, Cambridge, where he recorded in his diary that he used to spend 18 hours a day studying. His reward came in 1546 when he was appointed Under-Reader of Greek at the newly founded Trinity College, shortly after which he was made a Fellow of Trinity and graduated as a BA at his own college.
