Ján Dee bol renesančný učenec, ktorý spájal svety vedy a mágie. Vynikal v matematike, astronómii a navigácii, podporoval britské prieskumné expedície a možno aj vytvoril termín „Britské impérium“. Súčasne sa intenzívne venoval alchýmii, hermetickej filozofii a snahe o komunikáciu s anjelmi. Jeho štúdium nevidelo rozdiely medzi matematikou a mágiou; oboje považoval za súčasť hľadania božských právd. Dee vlastnil najväčšiu knižnicu v Anglicku a slúžil ako radca kráľovnej Alžbety I.
