Amazing article, Ariel, as always. You have reconstructed Dr. Faustus's literary history in a concise but thorough way. Now, all of us know much better about Faustus thanks to you.
Thanks so much Alan! Yes, something on Dee in the future. Just need to think of an angle with which to try and say something that is both interesting and not particularly familiar - perhaps the 'Enoch' route.
Looking forward to it! Here's a reference on Dee you may not know. Chapter one of the book Arguing with Angels by the Norwegian scholar Egil Asprem includes an analysis of the magical books and diaries that I found useful

Thanks so much Diego! Really appreciate your generous and encouraging comment.
Great work, as always. I hope you will do a post on John Dee

Thanks for that, much appreciated.
I met Egil at a conference (ESSWE) some years ago and will check that out.
