Thoughts about the presence of a certain cipher, of course, are the right thing to do. Many serious researchers of the work of Michel Nostradamus agree on this, but finding him turns out to be far from an easy task.
Of course, it's too early to put an end to it, but I propose in this book to find answers to many questions related to this black hole. I think now I have something to say. There are some pretty good reasons for this.
The book turned out to be quite capacious, at the time of the beginning of its compilation, not too many magical facts were known to me, only the key ones. But, in the process of moving on, I, as they say, accelerated, and, by the end of my creation, I knew them much more. Therefore, at least the first half of the book, it was necessary to rewrite it again, supplementing it with new details. Considering that this has already taken years, and the work is already quite material-intensive, I decided to leave everything as it is for now, because time inexorably runs forward. So this book, it seems, will not be the first and last.
Well, for now, about everything in order. Traditionally, it is customary to start with the biography of the creator. I won't leave her.
SHORT BIOGRAPHY
On December 14, 1503 (according to another version, December 21), Michel de Notre Dame was born in the family of the Jew Jomes de Gazon, who changed his surname to Notredam after being baptized, in the city of Saint-Remy-de-Provence. His family was quite educated. Father was a notary, grandfather – Guy-de-Gazon (later – Pierre-de-Notredam) – was also a notary and traded in grain. Mother – Rene de Saint-Remy – was the granddaughter of Jacques de Saint-Remy, a doctor in Saint-Remy.
It is with this great-grandfather that the childhood of Michel de Notre Dame is associated. It is believed that it was from him that he received his first knowledge of Latin, Greek, Hebrew and the exact sciences.
In 1518, Michel entered the university in Avignon, and in 1519 he was already expelled from it. The reason is called an outbreak of plague in the city.
Little is known about the next few years of his life, until 1529, when he entered the University of Montpellier at the Faculty of Medicine. However, in the university library there is a document about the newly expelled student Notre Dame due to the fact that he was seen in the pharmaceutical business, which was prohibited by the University Charter. Whether or not Michel de Notredame eventually received his Ph.D. has not yet been ascertained for certain, as far as I know.
