John Dee's Conversations with Angels: Cabala, Alchemy, and the End of Nature
Harkness, Deborah E. (Associate Professor, University of California, Davis)
John Dee's angel conversations have been an enigmatic facet of Elizabethan England's most famous natural philosopher's life and work. Professor Harkness contextualizes Dee's angel conversations within the natural philosophical, religious and social contexts of his time. These conversations include discussions of the natural world, the practice of natural philosophy, and the apocalypse.
