The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age by Frances A. Yates

Publication: 1979 Routledge and Kegan Paul first edition 

Yates explores how esoteric traditions—including Hermeticism, Neoplatonism, astrology, alchemy, and Kabbalah—shaped the thought of key Elizabethan figures. She focuses on the intellectual atmosphere of the late 16th and early 17th centuries, especially as it influenced John Dee, the court astrologer and mathematician to Queen Elizabeth I.
