Nostradamus in popular culture information


Estant assis de nuict secret estude,
Seul repousé sus la selle d'aerain;
Flambe exigue sortant de solitude
Faict proferer qui n'est à croire vain.
(Century I.1, 1555)

The prophecies of the 16th-century author Nostradamus have become a part of the popular culture of the 20th and 21st centuries. Nostradamus' life has been depicted in both fiction and non-fiction books as well as several films, and made-up prophecies that were said to be his were circulated online in several well-known hoaxes, where quatrains in the style of Nostradamus have been circulated by e-mail. The most well-known hoax claims that he predicted the attack on New York City's World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
