A year later, he tried to invade England with his Spanish Armada fleet of ships, but England thwarted him. The quatrain also hints at the Battle of Lepanto, where Spain slaughtered the fleet of the Ottoman Empire, an area to the South inhabited by many Arabs. Philip would later call for Muslim expulsion from Spain. He and Philip disagreed on religion and battled until Henri's death. Born in , Louis Pasteur was a French chemist and microbiologist who discovered that the growth of micro-organisms causes fermentation.
That discovery also proved bacteria doesn't simply appear spontaneously, as previously thought. Instead, it grows from already-living organisms in a process called biogenesis.
While Pasteur didn't first propose "germ theory," he convinced much of Europe of its validity. He invented a process for removing bacteria, "pasteurisation," which is named after him. His early work also led to the creation of vaccines for rabies and anthrax. However, in , science historian Gerald L. Geison published a book showing Pasteur incorporated a rival's findings to make his anthrax vaccine functional. That finding partly "dishonored" the great scientist, as Nostradamus predicted.
Hitler — who was born to poor parents in in Western Europe — used his intense oratory skills to mobilise the Nazi party in Germany in the years following World War I. Germany, as a part of the Axis powers, also allied with Japan in the East. While many believe "Hister" to be a typo, it's also an old name for the Danube River. Hitler was born just miles from that river in what was then Austria-Hungary, also known as the "Danube Monarchy.
He then became prime minister of the provisional post-WWII government. Finally in , he undertook the first presidency of the French Fifth Republic. In August of , the United States dropped two atomic bombs on the island nation of Japan, in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Many historians argue the tragedy marked the end of World War II. Those who escaped immediate detonation suffered painful radiation poisoning, and many died. Nostradamus has been credited with quite a few 20th Century predictions, and the rise of Adolf Hitler is often cited as one of them.
And, to be fair, his writings do provoke a slight chill of recognition. And what does this child do? He will 'by his tongue… seduce a great troop', and his fame will spread far beyond Europe.
Another quatrain of possible significance mentions fighting 'close by the Hister' — which is either a loose reference to Hitler, or a more mundane mention of the old name of the Danube river.
Depending on your point of view. The quatrain paints an increasingly bleak picture, foretelling 'famine within plague' potentially a reference to radiation sickness and the lasting disruption of war and 'people put out by steel', which may point to the planes which dropped the bombs.
Of course, this may well have been Nostradamus talking about a literal plague affecting any potential cities, given that the man himself had first hand experience of treating plague patients. But, again, it depends on how much you really want to believe. The killing of President John F. A commonly quoted contender is the bit that reads 'From on high, evil will fall on the great man' — perhaps a reference to the fact he was shot from a distance by a sniper or snipers.
What if JFK was never shot? Tellingly, the quatrain continues with 'A dead innocent will be accused of the deed' — is this Lee Harvey Oswald, the suspected assassin who was himself shot dead soon after, and has long been regarded as an innocent fall gu y?
In Century 9, Quatrain 95, Nostradamus is also said to have predicted the rise of super-soldiers and the armies of tomorrow. Unfortunately, there is no real evidence Nostradamus ever predicted the future and his writings are too vague to back the claims.
According to sceptics such as Brian Dunning, science writer host of the Skeptoid podcast, no one has ever used a Nostradamus quatrain to predict a future event.
