Descrizione
Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langj�igem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - Outlandish alchemist and magician, political intelligencer, apocalyptic prophet and converser with angels, John Dee (1527-1609) was one of the most colourful 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 of the Renaissance. ISBN 9780300117196
