Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Drawing upon the various manuscript records, this study analyzes in detail how the 'holy' knowledge was revealed to John Dee and Edward Kelley through their magical actions for the period from 1582 to 1587. It focuses on what is called The Book of Enoch, thereby trying to find out what position it holds in the context of Renaissance occult tradition.
