    You go fire - > kiln - > charcoal - > furnace - > steel and copper - > permanent magnets - > electric motor.

    The tricky thing is that you need a naturally occurring magnet (lodestone) to make the first steel magnet. If you happen to have a magnet on you you can do heat treatment of the steel, rub the magnet to align the atoms and get yourself a better magnet.

    After you got the electric motor you both have a generator and a motor easy peasy.
