NOSTRADAMUS (1503-1566)

This article appears in Volume V19, Page 822 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NEW-NUM
NOSTRADAMUS (1503-1566) , the assumed name of MICHEL DE NOTREDAME, a French astrologer, of Jewish origin, who was born at St Remi in
Provence
  on the 13th of December 1503. After studying humanity and philosophy at
Avignon
 , he took the degree of
doctor
  of
medicine
  at Montpellier in 1529. He settled at
Agen
 , and in 1544 established himself at Salon near
de' Medici; and in 1558 he published an enlarged edition with a dedication to the king. The seeming fulfilment of some of his predictions increased his
influence
 , and Charles IX. named him physician in
ordinary
 . He died on the and of July 1566.
The Centuries of Nostradamus have been frequently reprinted, and have been the subject of many commentaries. In 1781 they were condemned by the papal
court
 , being supposed to contain a prediction of the fall of the papacy. Nostradamus was the author of a number of smaller
treatises
 . See Bareste, Nostradamus (Paris, 184o).
