Opis
Rachel Morris is one of the smartest storytellers I have ever met' - James Rebanks, author of The Shepherd's Life
All things were believable back then - wizards, alchemy, fairies, angels. This is the story of those magical times.
A lyrical and highly atmospheric exploration of the lives of Renaissance magicians, men from Dee to Kepler to Bruno were also scientists, astrologers and alchemists. Their studies and ideas still permeate books and film from Philip Pullman to CS Lewis. But what of the rest of the household, the lovers, wives, mothers and daughters who supported their travelling households, packing up the libraries, growing herbs and noting the spells?
With fictional imaginings of the domestic lives that supported them Rachel Morris magically animates undocumented women and children lives in this era of discovery and wizardry.
------------
'Absolutely enthralling, a real treasure trove of a book... The period leaps off the page, bringing the historical figures to life, and painting a detailed picture of not only the physical surroundings of the Elizabethans, but also their spiritual and metaphysical worlds' - Naomi Kelsey, author of The Burnings
'A creative, fun history that powerfully evokes the romance of Renaissance magic' - Marion Gibson, author of Witchcraft
