- This discussion of the "Kircher Tree," from the Oedipus Aegyptiacus of Athanasius Kircher, is intended as supplementary material for Terry Burns's class on the Hieroglyphic Monad of Dr. John Dee. It was originally presented as part of a longer paper at the 2022 International Medieval Studies Conference.
Burns's class on the Hieroglyphic Monad, using the translation she completed with Dr. Nancy Turner, is here: • 1. John Dee's Hierogly...

Thank you, and I also thank @FraterRC for sharing the link to this video to his community post.
Many thanks to you both... glad you're here!
As ever, fascinating and erudite... usch dense material it takes me days to digest even the most literal interpretations of the work. Many thanks!
Thank you for keeping at this... I have really appreciated your comments as we've moved through this material.
I've seen that hieroglyphic monad before. Someone made that in a crop circle I remember. Interesting it also bears a striking resemblance to the gold record hieroglyphics place on the voyager space craft. And the arecebo message sent out by radio telescope and again another crop circle someone made displaying a purported response to the arecebo message. E. T. phone home E. T. phone home 🤣 they love putting this shit in movies, Spielberg constantly. Close encounters of the 3rd kind... Thick. Its an age old tradition it would seem though. Myth and fairytale. Hansel and gretel leaving a trail of bread crumbs so they didn't get lost in the forest and can find their way home. It's fun if you let it be fun 😁 The fun really starts I imagine when you put the book down and go out and live your own legend. I'm still reading the book currently it would appear haha. Akin to the never ending story or childhoods end. More interesting books
Wow I love your channel and you’re a wealth of knowledge and I really appreciate your communication style of breaking these complex ideas down, not to dumb it down but to make it easier to digest for us non experts, and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you!
Thank you for watching!
I would love to know more
It is a fascinating subject to explore! I will likely do a video on Riccio down the road... he seems to be the clearest link back to the 12th century Kabbalists.
@@Terry_Burns I have been studying this for a long time.
Thank you so much 💓
