Rudolf II (July 18, 1552 – January 20, 1612) was a holy Roman emperor and lived in Prague castle, where he invited many notable figures.
Biography
At one point, people spoke of a monsterthat was roaming Prague, hunting noblemen and alchemists alike. The citizens of Prague criticized Rudolf II for being weak and not doing anything to stop the monster.
In response to this, Rudolf called many alchemists to meet him and discuss what should be done to get rid of the threat. It was decided that all notable alchemists of the city would be protected by the city guards.
Rudolf II was also the one responsible for the imprisonment of Edward Kelley, having grown tired of waiting for the gold he was promised, though he restored his status after his release. However, the Emperor did not fully trust Kelley, as he had his house placed under surveillance.
He eventually ordered the city guards to take Edward Kelley back to the prison because he had failed to produce gold again, which, indirectly, resulted in his death.
