The Lost Book of Nostradamus DVD

Could this be the final work of history's most famous seer? How did it come to light after four centuries of obscurity? What revelations reside in its mysterious pages?

• A spectacular find in the Italian National Library brings new mysteries to light.
• In his own time, Nostradamus was a celebrity healer and astrologer.
• Over 200 editions of his Prophecies have been published since he died in 1566.

The manuscript revealed startling images of world-shaking events. It had been lost in the stacks of the Italian National Library possibly for centuries. Inside of the book was the author's name, Michel de Notredame, better known as the prophet Nostradamus.

In this special presentation, THE HISTORY CHANNEL® takes you on a thrilling excursion through dusty shelves and eerily prescient predictions to examine the legacy of Nostradamus. A controversial Renaissance figure, his hugely popular almanacs and Prophecies skirted the edge of heresy while bringing him fame and fortune. He consorted with queens and clergy but, to avoid persecution, disguised much of his work with codes and riddles. His enigmatic predictions, ripe for interpretation, have persisted in the popular imagination as reliable guides to major world events.

This manuscript unearthed by journalist Enza Massa, though, adds a completely new chapter to the Nostradamus saga. With over eighty watercolors and pages of cryptic and bizarre writing, this previously unknown work reveals startling new prophecies from the most famous seer in history. This special program examines the document itself, using scientific analysis to determine its authenticity and tracing its mysterious history. And if genuine, what do its riddles predict?

Discover what he knew about his future - and ours - in THE LOST BOOK OF NOSTRADAMUS.

Seven Deadly Sins DVD Set

In this intriguing series, HISTORY™ examines the impact of the seven deadly sins on mankind throughout the ages.

We learn how the concept originated—as a way to keep a lustful fourth-century monk from sinning again—and how they were pared down from eight to the seven we recognize today: gluttony, lust, greed, anger, sloth, envy, and pride. For the Catholic faithful they became a guide on the path to heaven. To repeat offenders, they promised damnation in Hell and very specific, very gruesome punishments. Gluttons, for instance, would be force-fed rats, toads and snakes.

The warnings couldn’t be clearer: Succumb to any of the seven deadly sins and God’s judgment will be severe.

• DISC ONE: Lust / Envy / Gluttony / Sloth
• DISC TWO: Greed / Anger / Pride
