The Prophecies of the Nun of Dresden, under the original Italian title of Le profezie della monaca di Dresda, is a novel by Renzo Baschera which takes the form of an essay analyzing several manuscripts purportedly found at the beginning of the 19th century.
The Prophecies of the Nun of Dresden begins with an introduction, which shows the few historical notes of the prophetic manuscripts.
[2] In the third edition of the novel, the author adds a premise which claims to interpret the contemporary events (1986) in the light of the writings of the Nun, expecting the fulfillment of the predictions by the end of the 20th century.
In letters to the others, religious events are predicted general concern that some historical developments, some disasters and some technical progress.
[2] At first, the authority of the nun is posted with this entry, as is the case for most of the clairvoyants; subsequently, unlike the others that kept the detachment from all their visions, the woman accepted more and more the presence of what became the “sweet voice” letters, even when it promised catastrophe.
The author also notes a link between the color of the horses, according to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and the historical period in which the pope lived: In a letter to Frederick I of Prussia, the nun predicts that “the last Peter will come from your land”.
