ABSTRACT

Christian hierarchies. Yet Dee shows n~ concern with the ordering

also with ~ach other. The two principal instruments, the Holy Table

The angels Annael, Uriel, Michael, Gabriel and Raphael each

receive the information th~t' God imparted to him through the angels

Nevertheless the information that the angels do impart contains

may be found in De occulta philosophia. The angel Annael only

are mehael, Gabriel, Raphael and Uriel, the four angels who stand

(~. Phil. III, xxiv,p.416). Agrippa also names seven angels of the presence, Zaphkiel, Zadkiel, Cumael, Raphael, Baniel, Michael

vou sensibly'. Uriel then declares:

through the vis imaginitiva. The close resemblance to Agrippa's

theory further suggests fraud, conscious or unconscious, on the

Agrippa's writing.
