Book Description
The ability to see into the future and to accurately predict events has fascinated and yet frightened man for thousands of years. As far back as 4,000 BC the Sumerians consulted sages who would pronounce on important matters and advise on courses of action. In this riveting new account, the predictions of the most famous sages and seers from the dawn of civilization are looked at in detail. One of the best known of these visionaries was Nostradamus, and indeed his prophecies and predictions form the core of this book. Illustrated throughout, Nostradamus & Other Prophets and Seers examines the role of astrology, alchemy and arcane knowledge in prophecy. Most intriguingly, it tries to answer that age-old question of whether there is such a thing as 'secret knowledge' and whether it is possible for mere mortals to access it.

The Mammoth Book of Prophecies
Author: Damon Wilson
Publisher: Constable
ISBN: 9781841196923
Category : Prophecies
Languages : en
Pages : 501
Book Description
Nostradamus, the most prolific and accurate of all the prophets, is the primary focus of this in-depth look at some of the chillingly accurate prophecies and predictions of catastrophe. Here he is found alongside Mother Shipton, the Brahan Seer, pagan prophecy and police prophets. There is a special focus on three predictions that all too alarmingly came true: the sinking of the Titanic, the 1967 Silver Bridge collapse in West Virginia and the events in New York on 11 September 2002. Consulting psychics is neither as far-fetched nor as rare as it sounds, however reluctant most of us are to admit it. And public interest in prophecy and prophets increases dramatically in times of international tension. In the years leading up to the Second World War, in the months after the Cuban missile crisis, following the first manned landing on the moon, interest in prophecy was at an all time high, as people look for clues to the future. As, indeed, we are still doing today.

The Prophecies
Author: Nostradamus
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0143107232
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
The first major literary presentation of Nostradamus's Prophecies, newly translated and edited by prizewinning scholars The mysterious quatrains of the sixteenth-century French astrologer Nostradamus have long proved captivating for their predictions. Nostradamus has been credited with anticipating the Great Fire of London, the rise of Adolf Hitler, and the September 11 terrorist attacks. Today, as the world grapples with financial meltdowns, global terrorism, and environmental disasters—as well as the Mayan prediction of the apocalypse on December 21, 2012—his prophecies of doom have assumed heightened relevance. How has The Prophecies outlasted most books from the Renaissance? This edition considers its legacy in terms of the poetics of the quatrains, published here in a brilliant new translation and with introductory material and notes mapping the cultural, political, and historical forces that resonate throughout Nostradamus's epic, giving it its visionary power. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Encyclopedia of Prophecy
Author: Geoffrey Ashe
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1576075281
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 303
Book Description
A definitive, factual, A–Z reference guide offering a global perspective on the role of prophecy in world history, religion, folklore, and literature. From at least 1200 B.C. and probably long before, prophets have attempted to see into the future. Most—from ancient oracles to modern astrologers, from doomsday sects to telephone psychics—have been wrong the majority of the time, says British researcher Geoffrey Ashe. True foreknowledge is rare, but those rare occurrences are impressive. In this fascinating reference work, the first to encompass the entire 3,000 year span of recorded prophecy, Ashe examines the predictions of both good prophets and bad, including seers like Jacques Cazotte, who forecast the Reign of Terror in the French Revolution, and Morgan Robertson, who described the Titanic disaster 14 years before it happened. He refutes many of the far-fetched claims of Nostradamus, and highlights those that foreshadow events after his lifetime. He also examines failed prophecies that have been influential, including the many end-of-the-world forecasts, along with the surprisingly accurate visions of some science-fiction authors.

Book Description
According to the author, who has spent many years translating the original works of the most famous seer of all time, humankind could soon find itself plunging headlong into a holocaust whose destruction could well be of planetary proportions. Manuelian believes that the present situation in the world -- Nationalism vis a vis Globalism; the resurgence of neo-Fascism and Imperialism; the rise of Islamic Fundamentalism; the prevalent economic woes all over the world; ethnic conflicts and regional wars -- are all reminders of a precarious world that is teetering and tottering dangerously and that the coming years until the turn of the century could be the most critical in the overall life of the planet.

A New Cold War
Author: John Hogue
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781501081514
Category : Prophecies (Occultism)
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"A masterpiece of prophecy." -Whitley Strieber, author of "Communion" Prophets, such as Nostradamus, Stormberger and others introduced in this new and topical book accurately dated, detailed and forecast the coming of the First, the Second, and perhaps a "Third" World War. A new cold war between America and Russia "in our future" would merely be a short prelude to the threat of a civilization-ending nuclear exchange that no one saw coming. With open eyes we "walk into these great catastrophes," so they say. The danger begins when America and Russia display eagles as their national totems. That time is today. Read the prophets of world wars sound an alarm while there's still time to stop this war from happening. The future has another destiny. Edgar Cayce foresaw Russia becoming the "Hope of the World" with the help and support of American friendship. From citing future dangers to offering solutions, these prophets might show us a way to lasting peace.
