 HistoryOfMagick.com Articles: John Dee (Part 1)
Dee believed wholeheartedly that what the angels/spirits/intelligences told him through his scryer was true and obeyed their commands religiously.
Dee was very well respected during the early parts of his career, often in contact with higher ups in British society and the Catholic Church, and amassing for himself one of England's finest libraries.
Basically, the Church believed that because Dee had a wife, and therefore was concerned with "worldly" matters, he couldn't possibly be in contact with good angels, for only very holy, celibate hermits received such visits.

 John Dee and Thomas Digges: like father, like son?
Ironically, just as Dee was forsaking earthly avenues to wisdom in favour of spiritual access to more ‘radicall truthes’ in the 1580s, the prosaic part of his public programme was being successfully adapted by figures such as Digges who refashioned their identities as mathematical practitioners.
For Dee, the new star was literally an epoch making event: he used its appearance to mark a new year zero of the same status as the birth of Christ and the creation of the world.
For Dee, the existence of spirits was not only literally interpreted and routinely granted but access to spiritual intelligences was philosophically justified within a metaphysics linking human nature and the supercelestial realm.

In her biography of Dee, John Dee (1527-1608), published in 1909, Charlotte Fell Smith says (Chapter 1): "There is perhaps no learned author in history who has been so persistently misjudged, nay, even slandered, by his posterity, and not a voice in all the three centuries uplifted even to claim for him a fair hearing.

Dee is said to have found a copy of the Necronomicon, given to him by the alchemist Jacob Eliezer known as the "Black Rabbi" (this book does exist and was the basis of Kelly and Dee's Endochian magic, Crowley's The Book of the Law and H.P Lovecraft's Cthulthu Mythos).

 John Dee - Alex Sumner
Dee believed he had a sacred mission to heal the rift which had opened up between the two factions, which appeared to him as the most serious threat that the Christian faith had ever faced.
It is not surprising therefore that Dee himself was concerned to heal the split in the Church, through the doctrine of Eirenicism, where the doctrinal differences of Catholicism and Protestantism were reconciled by reference to the non-Christian teachings of Hermeticism.
Dee predicted the rise of the British Empire; not a particularly prophetic act, as all the other countries of Europe, especially Spain and France, wanted new colonies in the New World as well.

When I began to read Dee’s angelic transcripts I was struck by the thought that the God of Dee’s angels was the same demonic demiurgic God I was already familiar with in gnostic texts.
It is possible that these seven evil sons of Ea reappear in the Apocalypse, firstly as the seven angels with seven trumpets whose sounding progressively causes terrible events to occur that mark the end of the world, and also the "seven angels with seven plagues" carrying bowls containing the wrath of God.

 Claire Fanger Reviews Deborah Harkness, *John Dee's Conversations with Angels*
Although she cites Stephen Clucas' recent work on the precedents for Dee's practices in medieval Solomonic magic, she largely ignores its implications; at any rate she does not pursue his leads and does not seem to have looked closely at most of the texts he cites.
All use prayer; even necromantic rituals often show a fine sensitivity to the order in which lower spirits must be bound by loftier ones, and it is generally recognized in one way or another that the whole machine moves at the will of God.
This lack of interest is most perceptible when it comes to the late medieval precedents for the practice of invoking angels.

 Apologia of John Dee
In the new list of additions and corrections to the S.T.C. by Bishop there is no mention of the present edition either.
In 1583 Dee went on a long visit to the continent with the imposter Kelley and during his absence the mob broke into his house at Mortlake and destroyed most of his library and his instruments: it is also evident that various charges of unlawful studies were levelled at him in his absence.
Dee returned, without Kelley, in 1589 and this "Letter" was originally written soon after his return; anyhow he was speedily restored to royal favour and the present work probably played a large part in this.
