A fascinating primary source text from one of the most enigmatic figures of the Renaissance: John Dee — mathematician, astrologer, alchemist, and advisor to Queen Elizabeth I.

This volume brings together Dee’s personal diary alongside a catalogue of his extensive library, offering rare insight into his intellectual world. The diary records daily events, spiritual workings, and court connections, while the library catalogue reveals the breadth of his interests across magic, science, philosophy, and early modern knowledge systems.

As part of the Tredition Classics series, this is a modern reprint of public domain material, making historically significant texts accessible again in a clean, readable format.

A strong piece for readers interested in Western esotericism, Renaissance history, and the intersection of magic and science.
