Sir Edward Kelley

Sir Edward Kelley (1555–1597) was an English alchemist and occultist who became known in the late 16th century for claiming he could communicate with angels and produce supernatural knowledge. He worked with the famous mathematician and astrologer John Dee in England, attempting to unlock hidden secrets of nature and the universe through mystical and esoteric practices. Kelley was a controversial figure, often associated with magical and alchemical pursuits, but his methods and claims are viewed with skepticism by modern historians. His life reflects the era’s fascination with alchemy, mysticism, and the search for hidden truths beyond conventional science.
