32. Imaginary and Expected Catastrophes: Apocalyptic Desire and Scientific Prognosis [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1995 (Vol XVII) "Proceedings of the SIS 1995 Braziers College Conference" Home | Issue Contents Imaginary and Expected Catastrophes: Apocalyptic Desire and Scientific Prognosis Gunnar Heinsohn I Myths and legends describing catastrophes of the Bronze Age provide the hardcore information for the texts of apocalyptic preaching. In mainstream scholarship and theology these catastrophes are no longer understood as real events of the past merely projected into the future. On the contrary, the apocalyptic threats of erratic celestial bodies and global cataclysms are considered as godly revelations dealing exclusively with monstrous events supposed to trigger Judgment Day. In fact, this has not always been the case. In a book published ...
33. "Heaven and Earth": Catastrophism in Hamlet [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. IV No. 1 (Fall 1978) Home | Issue Contents "Heaven and Earth": Catastrophism in Hamlet Irving Wolfe Copyright (C ) 1978 by Irving Wolfe This article is the conclusion of an essay on Hamlet, the first part of which was published in the previous issue of KRONOS, Vol. III, No. 4, Summer-1978, pages 3 to 18. Francis Fergusson, in his study of the ritual and mythic basis of drama, The Idea of a Theatre, (32) argues that Hamlet consists of five dramatic divisions that are similar to the prototypical five-part structure of Greek tragedy in general and of Sophocles' Oedipus Rex ...

35. A Catastrophic Reading of Religious Systems [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review (1994) "Proceedings of the 1993 Cambridge Conference" Home | Issue Contents A Catastrophic Reading of Religious Systems Irving Wolfe Département d'études anglaises, Université de Montréal In his Conference paper, Professor Wolfe makes frequent reference to an earlier paper, A Catastrophic Reading of Religious Systems', the greater part of which was presented at the S.I .S . Autumn Meeting at Nottingham Trent University in October 1992. He has graciously provided what he warns is a very compressed outline of that first paper, to enable us to follow the argument of his second paper from its inception. 1. Consider organized religion as a human product whose ...
36. The Years 763 and 687 BC [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol V No 4 (1984) Home | Issue Contents The Years 763 and 687 BC John J. Bimson (c ) JOHN BIMSON 1984 Dr John Bimson, biblical archaeologist and lecturer in Old Testament Studies at Trinity College, Bristol, is a consultant and regular contributor to the Review. The case for a major catastrophe having occurred in the year 687 BC is briefly reviewed and the idea that the 687 date is dependent on Assyrian chronology is shown to be in error. The date actually derives from Chinese evidence. Further, there seems to be no good evidence to postulate a global disaster in that year, the Chinese evidence suggesting no more than a ...
37. New Fashions in Catastrophism [Books] [de Grazia books]
... From: Cosmic Heretics, by Alfred De Grazia Home | Issue Contents PART THREE CHAPTER NINE New Fashions in Catastrophism Deg's Journal, November 24, 1967 Rereading carefully V. s Earth in Upheaval, I read the sections on the age of waterfalls this morning and, as I poured coffee beans into the coffee grinder just now I wondered at the marvelous parallelisms or analogies of force- an old observation of course- cascades great and small, all the same- what makes them "different"? Man's size?- which separates everything in the world into big and small? Time is such too. Easy to see and believe the existence of gods who pour Victoria Falls ...
38. Catastrophism And Evolution. Ch.15 Cataclysmic Evolution (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... From "Earth in Upheaval" © 1955 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents Catastrophism And Evolution THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION dates back to the age of classic Greece, one of its proponents having been Anaximander, and from time to time philosophers have offered the evolutionary explanation of the origin of the multiple forms of life on earth, as opposed to the theory of special creation or the permanency of living forms from the day of Creation. Lamarck (1744 -1829) thought that acquired characteristics were transmissible by heredity and thus might lead to the appearance of new forms of life. In 1840, the year that Agassiz's Ice Age theory was published, an anonymously printed work ...
39. A Note On Shakespeare's Cataclysmic Imagery [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. VI No. 3 (Spring 1981) Home | Issue Contents A Note On Shakespeare's Cataclysmic Imagery Richard J. Jaarsma In two recent issues of KRONOS (V :4 and VI:1 ), I published articles (with Edward Odenwald) in which I explained Shakespeare's imagery of catastrophism in terms of a series of celestial, meteorological, and geological catastrophes that afflicted England and Europe from approximately 1550 to 1616. Actual catastrophes, afflicting Elizabethan life, we argued, gave impetus to and confirmed a fear already there that the world was coming to an end. It is not surprising, then, that Shakespeare's imagery should reflect a concern over catastrophism ...
40. Velikovskian Catastrophes in the Revelation of St. John [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History V:1 (Jan 1983) Home | Issue Contents Velikovskian Catastrophes in the Revelation of St. John Arie Dirkzwager This study in the opinion of the author will be useful both for people who, like himself, believe in the divine inspiration of the Bible, and people who do not. The first group will find a description of a future in which mankind will again experience the kind of catastrophes Velikovsky discussed in Worlds in Collision. The second group will consider the Book of Revelation a product mainly of Jewish tradition, preserving reminiscences of historical Velikovskian catastrophes. The beliefs of both groups being of equal value, scientifically (science does not ...
