... From: The Disastrous Love Affair of Moon and Mars, by Alfred De Grazia Home | Issue Contents CHAPTER FOUR Catastrophe and Sublimation One may dare to suppose that the Love Affair stands for a tragedy of humanity if there is borne in mind a larger theory, already considerably developed, even if not yet widely employed. The larger theory, the modern scientific theory of ancient catastrophes - quantavolution - functions as a kind of general engineering scheme to guide the reconstruction of the song of Demodocus. It is both chronological - telling what happened when - and analytic - telling how it happened. As a consequence of work done in quantavolution, many ancient and recent discoveries have come together ...
12. Perilous Planet Earth: Catastrophes and Catastrophism Through the Ages by Trevor Palmer. [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: C&C Review 2004:3 (Incorporating C&C Workshop 2004:4 ) Home | Issue Home Perilous Planet Earth: Catastrophes and Catastrophism Through the Ages by Trevor Palmer Cambridge University Press. 2003. Reviewed by Laurence Dixon This book looks at the way in which prevailing views of modes of global changes have changed dramatically over the years. The two main themes are geology and evolution; both highly contentious subjects as soon as the word catastrophe is mentioned. This book is a major contribution to knowledge in this area as befits an author with Professor Palmer's academic background. It is aimed at professional academics and students from a variety of disciplines, including palaeontology ...
13. Catastrophism and Uniformitarianism [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... From: Catastrophist Geology Year 1 No. 2 (Dec 1976) Home | Issue Contents Catastrophism and Uniformitarianism Alistair F, Pitty Department of Geography, University of Hull, Great Britain The view of earth history proposed by the Catastrophists of the early nineteenth century was of a succession of abrupt upheavals culminating in a great Flood. These paroxysms were interpretated as the result of Divine intervention. In contrast. C. Lyell and J. Hutton favoured slow changes due to natural processes and considered that interpretations of earth history could be based on present-day evidence. Geology developed from their work. and A. Geike's maxim, the present is the key to the past', is often ...
14. Velikovsky's Sources Volume Five [Books]
... their purpose is not to set forth an eyewitness description or a historical record of the events of a planetary collision. Indeed, anyone who takes the trouble to read a fair cross section of them will rapidly realise this. To take a miniature example of what I mean here: it is a fact that Ps. 144 contains the following catastrophic elements : a)the heavens bow down' : this can be interpreted as the close approach of a cosmic body. b)because of a), mountains smoke' and this can be interpreted as cosmically induced volcanic activity. c)lightnings and shooting arrows' are mentioned : these can be interpreted as interplanetary electrical discharges and ...
15. Evidence that the Earth has Suffered Catastrophes of Cosmic Origin in Historical Times: the Conclusions of the 2nd SIS Conference [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review (1994) "Proceedings of the 1993 Cambridge Conference" Home | Issue Contents Evidence that the Earth has Suffered Catastrophes of Cosmic Origin in Historical Times: the Conclusions of the 2nd SIS Conference One of my most abiding memories of the 1993 Cambridge Conference was how happy we all were. It was a very friendly gathering of like-minded folk and often there was instant rapport between participants. Old friendships were renewed and new ones forged. It was especially good to meet up with correspondents from the other side of the world. Every minute was prime time, with discussions ranging on long after the talks, throughout the coffee and meal breaks and ...

[S ]ome of the moderns have indulged this folly [of explaining natural philosophy by use of myth] with such consummate inconsiderateness that they have endeavoured to build a system of natural philosophy on the first chapter of Genesis, on the Book of Job, and other parts of scripture....

... From: Kronos Vol. VIII No. 4 (Summer 1983) Home | Issue Contents Seismology, Catastrophe, and Chronology Immanuel Velikovsky Copyright (c ) 1983 by Elisheva Velikovsky In 1945 I published a short synopsis, Theses for the Reconstruction of Ancient History, enumerating certain historical claims but leaving their substantiation for Ages in Chaos and subsequent volumes. The fact that the Middle Kingdom of Egypt was terminated in a catastrophe served only as a point of departure for me; and in the Theses I put it in the following form: Thesis 5: "The literal meaning of many passages in the Scriptures which relate to the time of the Exodus imply that there was a great ...
20. 'Worlds in Collision' After Heinsohn [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1997:2 (Apr 1998) Home | Issue Contents Worlds in Collision After Heinsohn by William Mullen Summary What would happen to Velikovsky's Worlds in Collision' series of cosmic catastrophes if Gunnar Heinsohn's re-dating of ancient history turned out to be correct? An investigation of this concludes that it would affect the dating of many of the key sources used by Velikovsky, with major effects on his conclusions. Introduction Immanuel Velikovsky had many predecessors in the effort to assign scientific causes to the cosmic catastrophes mankind has experienced. At different points in his writings he acknowledged his debts in different ways; names that recur most often are Plato, Lucretius, Seneca ...
