"The True Prophecies or Prognostications of Michael Nostradamus" by Nostradamus, translated and commented by Theophilus de Garencieres, is an examination of the cryptic predictions created by Michel Nostradamus, a well-known astrologer and physician, that focuses on offering interpretations of his famous verses, which tell of important times in history. This translated volume attempts to clarify those predictions, particularly those regarding significant political and social changes in Europe, while also discussing the difficulties of translating Nostradamus' ambiguous verses and the controversy that surrounded him, inviting readers to consider the mix of astrology, history, and art present in the verses. A key theme is the complex nature of interpreting prophecies and the need to approach them with caution, recognizing that their true meaning may only become clear after the events have occurred.
