Nostradamus Prophecies Book Nostradamus prophecies book Continue Michel de Nostredam was born on December 14, 1503 in Saint-Remy de Provence, France. In 1522 he decided to study medicine and enrolled in Mont Pellier. He received a bachelor's degree and soon received a license to practice medicine. He actively treated the victims of the Black Plague and developed unique and effective treatments that helped reduce the suffering of many people. At 26, Nostradamus returned to Mont Pellier to receive his doctorate. After graduating from university he was recruited as an instructor and taught for about a year. In 1538, Nostradamus was falsely accused of riding by church officials because of an innocent comment he once made about a church statue. One delusion led to another, and agents of the Spanish Inquisition sought his arrest. In an effort to avoid arrest, Nostradamus left France and fled to Italy. And after traveling through Italy and France for six years, Nostradamus returned to his homeland, where he worked in the city of Aix in 1546. For three years he again struggled with the plague. During this period of his life, Nostradamus met the pharmacists and healers of the region to include them in his book Traite des Fardmens, the world's first medical catalog, which lists the names, places and specialties of doctors and healers practicing in Europe. By 1555, Nostradamus had completed the first stage of his book, which would contain his prophecies. After its publication, Nostradamus's fame quickly spread throughout Europe. This first version of his prophecy contained more than 300 predictions. His book became very popular among literate and educated Europeans of the time, and the French queen, Catherine de Medici, summoned Nostradamus at court in Paris. He and the queen became close personal friends. It was in that era that Nostradamus was appointed personal physician and royal adviser to Henry II. On June 28, 1559, the quatrain No. 1-35 came true, which predicted the accidental death of an old lion (allusion to Henri - King of France). Some people were upset with Nostradamus, others were amazed. His fame grew even more. Nostradamus remained in the salon for a number of years, and continued to work on his works. Nostradamus' health began to bother gout and arthritis. His health continued to deteriorate and he died on July 2, 1566. After his death, his son Caesar collected the remaining prophecies that had been unpublished up to this point, and published them in 1568, two years after Nostradamus's death. Exciting work of one of the world's most famous experts on Nostradamus. Bestselling author Mario Reading has released the first major the whole body of the seers for 300 years - and it finally solves the last great mystery of Nostradamus. While prophecies have eclipsed us for centuries (only the Bible has been printed more times) an important question lingered: why has Nostradamus not announced the dates on which his predictions will occur? The complete Prophecy has an answer: Nostradamus did not hide anything, for the information is right there in the text. He gave each of his prophetic poems - ten volumes of 100 each - an index number. As Mario Reading shows in this new analysis, these numbers are the true key to the years of fulfillment of prophecies. This is a learning interpretation that no one should miss. What this new interpretation of the Prophecy says about our future: 2015: The world narrowly avoids hunger 2022: the abdication of Charles III of England 2032: The Birth of the Third Antichrist of the 16th Century by a French pharmacist and a well-known visionary for other purposes, see Nostradamus (disambiguation).

The book was first published in 1555. The Nostradamus family was originally Jewish, but converted to Catholic Christianity before he was born. He studied at the University of Avignon, but was forced to leave after just over a year when the university closed due to a plague outbreak. He worked as a pharmacist for several years before enrolling at the University of Montpellier, hoping to get a doctorate, but was almost immediately expelled after his work as a pharmacist (manual trade is prohibited by university laws) was discovered. He first married in 1531, but his wife and two children died in 1534 during another plague outbreak. He fought with doctors against the plague before re-marrying Anna Ponsarde, with whom he had six children. He wrote the almanac in 1550 and, as a result of his success, continued to write them for years to come as he began working as an astrologer for various wealthy patrons. Catherine de Medici became one of his main supporters. His Les Proph'ties, published in 1555, relied heavily on historical and literary precedent, and initially received a mixed reception. He suffered from severe gout towards the end of his life, which eventually turned into swelling. He died on July 2, 1566. Many popular authors retold apocryphal legends about his life. In the years since the publication of his Les Proph'ties, Nostradamus has attracted many supporters who, along with much of the popular press, credit him with accurately predicted many major world events. Most academic sources reject the idea that Nostradamus had any genuine supernatural prophetic abilities, and argue that the connections between world events and the quadrists of Nostradamus are the result of misinterpretation or mistranslation (sometimes intentional). These scientists claim that Nostradamus's predictions are characteristically vague, which means that they can be applied to almost anything, and are useless in determining whether their author had any real prophetic forces. They also point out that The English translations of his quatrains are almost always of extremely low quality, based on later manuscripts prepared by the authors, little knowledge of the English language of the sixteenth century, and often deliberately mistranslable to make prophecies suitable for any events that the translator thought they were to predict. The childhood life of Nostradamus claimed the homeland prior to its recent renovation, the Municipal Plaque of Saint-Remy de Provence at the birthplace of Nostradamus in Saint-Remy, France, describing him as an astrologer and giving a date of birth as December 14, 1503 Nostradamus was born either on 14 or 21 December 1503 in Saint-Remy de Provence, Provence, France, France, still there, and christened Michel. He was one of at least nine children of the notary Haume (or Juak) de Nostredam and Raniere, granddaughter of Pierre de Saint-Remy, who worked as a doctor in Saint-Remy. The Haume family was originally Jewish, but his father, Kresquas, a grain and money merchant based in Avignon, converted to Catholicism around 1459-1460, taking the Christian name Pierre and the surname Nostredam (Our Lady), a saint on whose day his conversion was solemn. The earliest ancestor to be identified by his father's line is Astrage, from Carcassonne, who died around 1420. Michel's famous siblings included Delphine, Jean (c. 1507-1577), Pierre, Hector, Louis, Bertrand, Gene II (born 1522) and Antoine (born 1523). Little is known about his childhood, although there is a persistent tradition that he was educated by his maternal great-grandfather, Gin de Saint-Remy, a tradition that is somewhat undermined by the fact that the latter is disappearing from the historical record after 1504, when the child was only one year old. At the age of 14, Nostradamus enrolled at avignon University to study for a bachelor's degree. After just over a year (when he would study regular triviality of grammar, rhetoric and logic, rather than the later quadriwium of geometry, arithmetic, music and astronomy/astrology), he was forced to leave Avignon when the university closed its doors during the plague outbreak. After leaving Avignon, Nostradamus, by his own account, traveled through the countryside for eight years with 1,521 herbal remedies. In 1529, after several years as a pharmacist, he enrolled at the University of Montpellier to study for a doctorate in medicine. Shortly thereafter, he was expelled by student prosecutor Guillaume Rondelet when it was revealed that he was a pharmacist, a manual trade, directly prohibited by university laws, and slandered doctors. The expulsion document, BIU Montpellier, Register S 2 folio 87, still exists in the faculty library. However, some of his publishers and correspondents later called him The Doctor. After his expulsion, Nostradamus continued to work, presumably until now, as a pharmacist, and became famous for creating a pink pill that supposedly protected against the plague.

    Rendiconti Lincei. Scienze Fisiche e Naturali (2021) 32:449–461 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12210-021-01012-1 RESEARCH PAPER The early book herbaria of Leonhard Rauwolf (S. France and N. Italy, 1560–1563): new light on a plant collection from the ‘golden age of botany’ Anastasia Stefanaki1,2,3 · Tilmann Walter4 · Henk Porck5 · Alice Bertin1 · Tinde van Andel1,2,6 Received: 18 January 2021 / Accepted: 21 June 2021 / Published online: 10 July 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract The sixteenth century was a golden age for botany, a time when numerous naturalists devoted themselves to the study and documentation of plant diversity. A very prominent fgure among them was the German physician, botanist, and traveler Leonhard Rauwolf (1535?–1596), famous for his travel account and luxurious book herbarium containing plants from the Near East. Here, we focus on the less studied, early book herbaria of Rauwolf. These form a three-volume plant collection bound in leather and gold, which contains over 600 plants that Rauwolf collected between 1560 and 1563 in S. France and N. Italy when he was a student of medicine. We show the botanical value of Rauwolf’s early book herbaria, exemplifed by two exotic American specimens, namely one of the oldest surviving specimens of tobacco (Nicotiana rustica), collected in Italy, and the oldest known French record of prickly pear (Opuntia fcus-indica). These well-preserved specimens indicate that Rauwolf was eager to collect exotic plants already in his early botanical steps. We further discuss Rauwolf’s professional botanical network during his student years and suggest that the famous Swiss botanist Johann Bauhin (1541–1613), friend and companion of Rauwolf during his feld excursions and their medical studies in Montpellier, has played a signifcant role in the compilation of this precious historical plant collection.

  • 12 Ichthyological Topics of the European Reception of Du Bartas
    12 Ichthyological Topics of the European Reception of Du Bartas Paul J. Smith An important difference between the reception histories of Ronsard and Du Bartas lies in the way in which the two poets are presented as a poeta doc- tus by their contemporary editors, printers, and commentators. In the case of Ronsard, the poet’s presentation by Rémy Belleau and Marc-Antoine de Muret highlights mainly his humanist learning in the field of classical mythology and his profound knowledge of the ancient poets (in particular Ovid, Tibullus, Propertius, Theocritus, Anacreon, Virgil, and Homer, in order of frequency), and Petrarch and Marullus among the moderns.1 As for Du Bartas, the com- mentators Simon Goulart and Pantaleon Thevenin mainly assume a different kind of learning: Aristotle, Pliny, and Aelian, but above all contemporary work, namely the natural histories by Pierre Belon, Guillaume Rondelet and Conrad Gessner. It is precisely this natural history aspect that is consistent with the emerging interest in natural history, and is therefore one of the causes of the difference in popularity between the two poets in the 17th century, especially in reader circles where there was a general growing interest in natural history. It is known that even some early modern scientists, such as Ambroise Paré, Nicolas-Abraham de La Framboisière, Scipion Dupleix, and Simon Girault,2 liked to quote Du Bartas in their work. It is less or not at all known that there was also interest in Du Bartas among some zoologically, and in particular ichthyologically interested readers. I would like to demonstrate the latter for Du Bartas on the basis of one of Du Bartas’s most quoted passages in natural 1 See Belleau Rémy, Commentaire au Second Livre des Amours de Ronsard, eds.

D'HONDT Abstract: First bryozoologists and the knowledge of Bryozoa from RONDELET to LiNNAEUS. The first specialists of the bryozoans have logically compared the organisms as animals, but a long time before they were studied by the botanists and interpreted as marine and freshwater algae. Bryozoans were fi- nally and definitively considered as animals only at the beginning of the XVIIIth century. Nationalities, areas of study, jobs, languages of publication, professional carriers of the first bryozoologists are recapi- tulated. Scientific contributions of bryozoan specialists from RONDELET to LiNNAEUS are synthetized in the various fields of the knowledge (morphology, anatomy, development, ecology, biogeography). A short biography is presented of each of the first bryozoologists working from the Renaissance to 1758 (date of thelO* edition of the LiNNAEUS' „Systema Naturae").

It aims at demonstrating the significant shift from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance with regards to the literary portrayal of animals, which were no longer regarded in the allegorical tradition but rather as a subject matter. These changes in philosophers’ perceptions of animals were conditioned by the intersection of two major phenomena taking place at the time – geographical explorations exposing new knowledge about unknown animals and species, and a rediscovery of classical texts that challenged the Aristotelian vision of a hierarchy of species. As a result, scholars were urged to break the old tradition of animals’ representation as a vehicle of human flaws and social differences, and created instead a new role for animals for the first time in the history of Western civilization.

Known burial places of the French bryozoologists 1. Introduction The study of the Bryozoa in France was essentially carried out in the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle (Paris), and in six universities, those of Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon, Marseilles, Montpellier and Paris. In Marseille and Montpellier, the scientists were only interested in Recent species, in Bordeaux and Lyon principally by the fossils, and in Lille and Paris in both living and fossil forms. The Parisian University ran some marine stations, where the scientists carried out research in the field, as well as undertaking further studies at their laboratories in Paris. The observations made in the marine station were an extension of research carried out at Roscoff, Banyuls-sur-Mer and Villefranche-sur-Mer. The Museum also owns the marine station of Dinard. Various investigators were not attached to a particular marine laboratory but carried out their research topics elsewhere sometimes in relative isolation, perhaps owing to the requirements of their own specialities. The works on the Bryozoa were conducted successively during several centuries in Paris, beginning in Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle from the 17th century and continued up to now in the faculty of sciences.

    Dr. Anastasia Stefanaki Van de Sande fellow Dec 2019 – Jan 2020, Scaliger Inistitute, Leiden University Library Report on the results of my visit to Leiden University Library special collections The purpose of my visit to Leiden University Library was to explore the life and botanical activity of Leonhard Rauwolf (1535–1596) in his early years in Southern France and Northern Italy in order to elucidate the historical context in which Rauwolf compiled the first three volumes of his herbarium. The Rauwolf herbarium, comprising 4 book volumes in total, is part of the Leiden Library Special Collections and since 2013 it is on (semi-)permanent loan at Naturalis Biodiversity Center (volumes 2 and 3) and the Boerhaave museum (volume 1). Leonhard Rauwolf was a 16th-century German doctor, botanist and explorer, who studied medicine and botany in Montpelier, France, under the teachings of the renowned doctor and botanist Guillaume Rondelet (1507–1566). Rauwolf became famous as the first post-Medieval European to travel to the Levant and Mesopotamia in search for new medicinal plants. This hazardous journey, which resulted to the compilation of the fourth volume of his herbarium (Ghorbani et al., 2018), is documented in detail in Rauwolf’s personal travel account (Rauwolf, 1738). The botanical content of this volume, c. 190 plants, has been recently studied and results were published by Ghorbani et al. (2018). My research regards the period 1560-1563, i.e. the student years of Rauwolf, during which he collected about 690 plants in Southern France and Northern Italy, which are included in first three volumes of his herbarium.
