About Pierre Brind'Amour

Lived 1941 – 1995 (aged 53–54). Pierre Brind'Amour was a Canadian classical philologist.

Pierre Rodrigue Brind'Amour (1941 – January 1995) was a French-speaking Canadian philologist, professor in the Department of Classics at the University of Ottawa.

Author of works on Greco-Roman antiquity, he brought new elements in support of a fact already seen by an anonymous writer from the eighteenth century, by Eugen Parker by Georges Dumézil and others, namely that Nostradamus, in his Prophecies, was inspired more than once by historical or literary books printed at his time.

A collection of Mélanges Pierre Rodrigue Brind'Amour were published in 2001 by the University of Quebec.
