[jean-yves artero <jyartero@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jeff

1563

Dee travels from Antwerp to Zurich (where he meets
Gesner and is introduced to the ideas of Paracelsus
which he helped to spread throughout Europe) and then
crosses the Alps to Italy. In Italy he visits
Chiavenna, Padua, Venice (where he meets Rangoni) and
Urbino (where he meets Commandino). He then travels to
Pressburg (Bratislava) to attend the coronation of
Maximilian I as King of Hungary. English poor law
reforms introduced. Publication of Foxe?s Book of
Martyrs in English. Births of Robert Cecil
(1563-1612), statesman and Michael Drayton
(1563-1631), playwright. Breughel paints ?The Tower of
Babel?.
