John Dee
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.

John Dee: MONAS HIEROGLYPHICA ('THE HIEROGLYPHIC MONAD')
This is John Dee's enigmatic treatise on symbolic language. Although published in 1564 at age 37, he considered it valuable throughout his life. The Monas is a highly esoteric work. In it he claims himself in possession of the most secret mysteries. He wrote it in twelve days while apparently in a peak (mystical) state: “[I am] the pen merely of [God] Whose Spirit, quickly writing these things through me, I wish and I hope to be.” He claims it will revolutionize astronomy, alchemy, mathematics, linguistics, mechanics, music, optics, magic, and adeptship. A better translation, which includes an excellent introduction was published by C. H. Josten in the journal AMBIX, XII (1964), 84-221.

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

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.

John Dee
Astrologer to the Queen
Born on July 13, 1527, in London, England, John Dee was an "English alchemist, astrologer, and mathematician who contributed greatly to the revival of interest in mathematics in England."
Encyclopaedia Britannica "Dee was an exceptional student who entered Cambridge University when he was fifteen...Dee excelled at Cambridge and was named Underreader (junior faculty member) before taking his degree. After graduating he traveled to the Continent to continue his studies, achieving overnight fame in Paris at the age of twenty-three, when he delivered a series of lectures on the recently exhumed works of the Greek mathematician Euclid."
Visions and Prophesies "After lecturing and studying on the European continent between 1547 and 1550, Dee returned to England in 1551 and was granted a pension by the government. Dee became astrologer to the queen, Mary Tudor, and shortly thereafter was imprisoned for being a magician but was released in 1555."
Encyclopaedia Britannica "Dee met the future Queen Elizabeth while she was being held under house arrest by Queen Mary. The two developed a freindship that lasted for the rest of their lives. As queen, Elizabeth gave Dee money...More importantly, she protected him from those who accused him of withcraft."

Il étudia la kabbale, en particulier « De arte cabalistica » de John Reuchlin, mais c’est avec la découverte de l’ouvrage magistral de Cornélius Agrippa de Nettesheim « De Occulta Philosophia », publié à Anvers en 1530, que Dee devint le maître de la magie.
Pendant ce temps sa réputation de sorcier s’amplifia, et à la mort de Mary Tudor, il devint le principal astrologue et magicien de la Reine Elizabeth, c’est une véritable connivence qui unira Dee à sa Reine, il influa pendant cette période sur toutes les décisions importantes du pays.

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.

Navigation Info
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.
