	John Dee - LoveToKnow 1911
		JOHN DEE (1527-1608), English mathematician and astrologer, was born on the 13th of July 1527, in London, where his father was, according to Wood, a wealthy vintner.
		Shortly afterwards Kelly and Dee were introduced by the earl of Leicester to a Polish nobleman, Albert Laski, palatine of Siradz, devoted to the same pursuits, who persuaded them to accompany him to his native country.
		Dee and Kelly lived for some years in Poland and Bohemia in alternate wealth and poverty, according to the credulity or scepticism of those before whom they exhibited.

	John Dee - Crystalinks
		John Dee (July 13, 1527 - 1608 or 1609) was a noted British mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, geographer, occultist, and consultant to Queen Elizabeth I. He also devoted much of his life to alchemy, divination, and Hermetic philosophy.
		Dee was born in Tower Ward, London to a Welsh family, whose surname derived from the Welsh du ("fl").
		Dee was offered a readership in mathematics at Oxford in 1554, which he declined, citing English universities' emphasis on rhetoric and grammar (which, together with logic, formed the academic trivium) over philosophy and science (the more advanced quadrivium, comprised of arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy) as offensive.

	James Randi Educational Foundation — An Encyclopedia of Claims, Frauds, and Hoaxes of the Occult and Supernatural
		Before Elizabeth Tudor ascended the throne, and while she was a reluctant resident of the Tower of London, he predicted for her a very long life and a very high position in the kingdom (a very successful prophecy!), and from that moment on, he enjoyed her considerable patronage and trust.
		In it, Dee claimed he could see future events by what is known as scrying.
		John Dee's only contribution to a solution was to advise the children to fast and pray.

	Francis Bacon & John Dee
		Dee's learning was far and wide, a brilliant mathematician, whose study ranged from geo-cartography and calculus which was vital in navigating the New World for explorers, to astrology, alchemy, the Cabala, cypher writing, religion, architecture, and science.
		Dee signed his letters with two circles symbolising his own two eyes and indicating that he was the secret eyes of the Queen.The two circles are guarded by what may be considered a square root sign or an elongated seven.
		Bacon's observation of the mis-treatment bestowed upon Dee by James served to reinforce that it was a different era and that the need to practice that Shakespeare maxim, "Discretion is the better part of valor" was imperative to anyone with a sweet disposition toward magic and mathematics or a secret society.

	John Dee and the English Calendar: Science, Religion and Empire
		Dee had gone so far in his as to calculate that Christ was born in a leap year ("bissext"), and one suspects that he had been indulging in the illegal practice of casting the horoscope of the son of God.
		Dee saw religious truth and arcane science as aspects of the same revelation, and it was essential to maintain a common framework for both; the calendar was part of this framework.
		Dee was understandably exultant at the news of the defeat of the Armada, and his letter to the queen is currently on display in the British museum manuscript galleries.

	Skyscript: John Dee - The Inspired Melancholic - by Sue Toohey
		Dee was a true Renaissance man. He was a man who was immersed in the learning of such subjects as astronomy, mathematics, geography, history and science.
		Dee was very generous with his collection and people would meet at his place to discuss ideas, often taking away books that they borrowed from his library.
		He was the scryer in Dee's communication with angels and it was Dee's involvement with Kelley, and their activities involving angels that was the main cause for Dee's less than favourable reputation towards the latter part of his life.

		Dee wrote a “Supplication to Queen Mary for the recovery and preservation of ancient writers and monuments” in an attempt to stimulate interest in rescuing manuscripts from the dissolved Monastic libraries and to induce the English to establish a national collection.
		Dee’s own library is currently being reconstructed online from his own catalogue by the John Dee Society whose membership feels that “this reconstruction should be of interest to a broad cross-section of the academic community, as well as to students of the Western magical tradition” (9).
		Dee managed to map the position of each heavenly body in the sky to within a few minutes of arc (a minute being one sixtieth of a degree), with the exception of Mercury, which is nearly two degrees adrift.

	Dee, John
		Dee said in his translation of Euclid¹s Elements in English that he was regarded as ³a companion of the helhounds (sic), a caller and a conjurer of wicked and damned spirits².

		In 1571, Dee purchased a mansion at Mortlake on the Thames river where he began a collection of curious books and manuscripts and objects, most of which were later destroyed by mobs that thought Dee was familiar with the Devil and was confiscated by the Queen after 1583.

	Ron Heisler - John Dee and the Secret Societies
		Man of science and magus extraordinary, and for two decades England's leading mathematician, it is only in recent years that John Dee's reputation has begun to properly recover from the obloquy attached by an age of militant rationalism to those notorious angel raising episodes in which he engaged in the 1580s.
		Dee's spiritual diaries are enlivened by periodic bouts of obvious paranoia, but on this occasion his apprehensions appear well founded.
		That Dee saw his own circle as being essentially a formal sect is implied by a later comment he made on Pucci, whom he dismissed as "being but a probationer, not yet allowed of, and to us known to be cut off."36 Clearly there was a grade of membership of a higher status than probationer.

		John Dee: The Politics of Reading and Writing in the English Renaissance presents a major reassessment of the career and cultural background of John Dee (1527-1609), one of Elizabethan England's most interesting figures.
		Challenging the conventional image of the isolated eccentric philosopher, William Sherman situates Dee in a fresh context, revealing that he was a well-connected adviser to the academic, courtly, and commercial circles of his day.
		The analysis itself is valuable and important, contributing to an understanding of Dee as a man deeply involved with his political and social environment, as well as clarifying the ways in which Dee read his sources.
