Descripción:
Traducción automática: Edward Kelley, un mago, resucitando el fantasma de una persona recientemente fallecida, en el patio de la iglesia de Walton-le-Dale, Lancaster. Sir Edward Kelley (1 de agosto de 1555 - 1 de noviembre de 1597) fue una figura ambigua del ocultismo del Renacimiento inglés y autoproclamado médium espiritual que trabajó con John Dee en sus investigaciones mágicas. Además de la profesada capacidad de convocar espíritus o ángeles en una bola de cristal y afirmaba poseer el secreto de transmutar metales básicos en oro. Kelley afirmó que los ángeles se comunicaban en un lenguaje "angelical" especial llamado enoquiano que le fue dictado por ángeles que afirmó ver dentro de una bola de cristal. Las leyendas comenzaron a rodear a Kelley poco después de su muerte y lo convirtieron en la fuente de la imagen folclórica del alquimista-charlatán. Ningún artista acreditado, sin fecha.
