Description
Monas Hieroglyphica is a book written by Dr. John Dee, a famous English mathematician, astronomer, and occultist. Published in 1564, it is a treatise on alchemy and hermetic philosophy, which explores the mystical properties of the symbol of the Monas Hieroglyphica, a glyph consisting of a central circle with an arrow and other symbols pointing in different directions.The book is divided into twelve chapters, each of which discusses the various aspects of the Monas Hieroglyphica, its symbolism, and its significance in alchemy and hermetic philosophy. Dee believed that the glyph held the key to the secrets of the universe, and that by understanding its symbolism, one could unlock the mysteries of nature and the cosmos.Throughout the book, Dee draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient Greek and Egyptian texts, as well as contemporary alchemical and hermetic writings. He also includes numerous illustrations and diagrams, which help to elucidate the complex symbolism of the Monas Hieroglyphica.Despite its esoteric subject matter, Monas Hieroglyphica was widely read and influential in its time, and it continues to be studied and debated by scholars of alchemy and hermetic philosophy today.This very rare and ancient manuscript is Dr. John Dee's Monas Hieroglyphica, written in Latin. Dr. Dee was known for ripe scholarship, for deep knowledge in chemistry and for rare skill in mathematics and astronomy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
