Summary
Szőnyi György E.: John Dee and the Doctrine of Exaltation
Depicting the life and work of John Dee, Renaissance mathematician and Queen Elizabeth's "wizard", György E. Szőnyi offers us an analysis of Renaissance occultism and its role in the chronology of European cultural history. Through selected examples of "magical thinking" from classical, medieval, and renaissance philosophers, Szőnyi looks back at Dee's key writings from the domain of spirituality, emphasizing that they are indirect sources for traditional mysticism. Exploring the intellectual foundations of magic, Szőnyi concentrates on the ideological framework of exaltation, glorification and apotheosis of man. Szőnyi argues that the desire for exaltation is a factor that frames and connects the otherwise diverse thoughts and activities of John Dee.
