Nostradamus claimed that he based his predictions on judicial astrology though it's clear he also got a lot of inspiration from Greek works and the Bible.Typically the predications don't follow a chronological coherence and were written in French Greek Latin and Occitan. Most of the quatrains deal with the topic of disasters after which Nostradamus gained the rumour of being able to predict the future.Nostradamus was a French astrologer who was believed to have supernatural powers of prophecy after the publication of this work gaining a lot of supporters.This edition includes a brief life of Nostradamus.

Front pastedown with pencilled name and annotations of Nostradamus scholar Daniel Ruzo de los Heros. USTC 6163254. Minor soiling and three small brown stains to covers first quire and last two quires a bit browned due to paper quality one leaf with horizontal crease partially obscuring a line of text though still legible other isolated imperfections but an excellent copy nevertheless the text clean and fresh and the curious binding shining with gilt and showing almost no wear.<br/> <br/> In a particularly charming star-studded binding this is an excellent copy of Nostradamus' famous prophecies which has been part of two major Nostradamus collections. The famous astrologer and physician Michel de Nostre-Dame known as Nostradamus 1503-66 caused a sensation with the publication of his "Centuries" in 1555 a collection of predictions written in nearly impenetrable quatrains that has enjoyed a certain measure of popularity ever since. Published in Bordeaux in 1698 our edition contains the 942 surviving predictions together with a brief biography of Nostradamus. Our copy is distinguished by a strikingly appropriate contemporary "reliure parlante"--a binding designed to mirror the contents of the book it covers; in this case the field of shimmering gilt stars perfectly suits the subject of reading the heavens and wonderfully complements the celestial woodcuts in the book. This copy has been part of two notable libraries of Nostradamus material. Former owner Daniel Ruzo de los Heros 1900-91 was a Peruvian scholar and eccentric whose wide-ranging career included serving as district mayor of Miraflores in Lima publishing numerous works on the possible man-made nature of the geologic formations in Marcahuasi and most relevant here collecting a wealth of Nostradamus material. His 1970 work "El Testamento Autentico de Nostradamus" includes his theories on Nostradamus' prophecies along with a bibliography of published editions of Nostradamus' works including many from his own library; the present copy is not included suggesting it was a later addition to Ruzo's collection. The extensive pencil notations on the front pastedown include Ruzo's cryptographical interpretations of Nostradamus' verses--including an anagram of "Nostradamus" as "Mandat Russo" roughly translated from the Spanish as a "command made by Russo" which Ruzo has further marked with his own name to ensure no one could miss the joke. The present copy subsequently passed into the library of Elmar R. Gruber b. 1955 psychologist researcher and noted collector of mediumistic art. His esoteric research led to an interest in Nostradamus and he built a significant collection of Nostradamus material culminating in his 2003 publication "Nostradamus: Sein Leben sein Werk und die wahre Bedeutung seiner Prophezeiungen.".

1672129189London: Thomas Radcliffe and Nathaniel Thompson 1672. First edition in English of Nostradamus famous prophetical work. Folio contemporary calf title page printed in red and black. In very good condition. Rare and desirable in contemporary calf. A physician by trade Michel de Nostredame "began his prophetic writings in the early 1540s with a series of short yearly almanacs in which he made predictions in verse. The new art of printing gratified a popular demand for supernaturally acquired 'certainty' and such almanacs were a common literary production of the day. It was with Les Prophéties 1555 however that Nostradamus became an author of contemporary reputation and a figure who has had an impact on later history… His more than 1000 rhyming quatrains arranged in 'centuries' of 100 constitute the largest body of prophetic verse prepared to that day perhaps in all literature" Clute & Grant 694. By blending scholarly learning received folklore and religious sentiment in richly symbolic highly poetic and frequently innovative language—and by crafting veiled commentary on the celebrities scandals warfare and pressing issues of his day—Nostradamus captured both the public's imagination and the French royal family's patronage. The doctor-seer's influence continues: readers have found in his prophecies such crises as the French Revolution and both World Wars and several have interpreted his reference to war erupting in the Balkans or the Middle East as a glimpse at the end of the world. "More than any other writer in modern times Nostradamus knew how to titillate the deep-seated craving felt by potentate and plebeian alike to foresee the future near and remote" DSB. Wing N1399.

Nostradamus Michel de Notredame was for years a wandering physician until 1547 when he married a wealthy widow. His major energies though were directed towards the pursuit of knowledge from the ancient Hebrew prophets to whose religion his ancestors had adhered until his grandfather converted to Catholicism. In 1555 he claimed divine inspiration for his astrological forecasts and his first book of prophecies was printed in Lyon. This work garnered him instant success and by the end of the year he was summoned to the French court to cast the horoscopes of the royal children. "Although he earned both admiration and enmity already in his own time the controversy over the credibility of his vague prognostications endures" Kenney.<br> <br> Caillet III 8073.
