... widespread popularity there until the 1950's. The new art was a reflection of the awareness of the new complexity of the world- and of the new advances in psychology and technology. These advances became manifest not only in the subject material but, increasingly, in the physical materials used. Sculptors, for example, began molding industrial metals, glass, and plastics into new shapes and functions. Nevertheless, despite being a product of the very same forces that forged the political dialectic of the time, Modern Art esthetics were seemingly antithetical to the feelings and forces which spawned the McCarthyist movement. Instead of conformity and traditionalism, modernism promoted individualistic experimentation. One of the new sculptors, ...
... .. In the same context (as for some of the ivory pieces) there were remains of charred wood, part of an unworked tusk or tusks, some midden rubbish, such as animal bones, burnt olive stones and a pomegranate husk, which came presumably from a broken refuse pit. The artefacts included many Israelite potsherds, some glass and paste insets, like those still in position on some of the ivories, a neo-Babylonian seal and a Philisto-Arabian coin. The position of any single fragment in debris of this mixed description is not of much significance; the soil has been turned over too often. ' V. Archaeological Investigations at Samaria Investigations of the Samaria site were ...

314. Canopy Skies of Ancient Man by Isaac Vail [Books]
... within the power of man to determine what colors to sift from the sunbeam in order to promote healthy cell development. I have destroyed vegetable, insect, and animal life by subjecting it to poisonous or death- dealing colors, such as dark purple, green, and mixed green and blue, and I have promoted life under red and yellow glass. So that when I am told that man lived to be a thousand years old, in a golden age, I am not incredulous the "golden age of Kronos", then, has a deep significance. These thoughts raise the question: Was not the Kronian age the biblical antediluvian, when man lived eight hundred to nine ...

316. Jerusalem -- City of Venus [Journals] [Kronos]
... in the Ancient World (Oslo, 1953), pp. 165 ff.] One need only look at the Tree of Jesse Window of Chartres Cathedral to realize the striking truth of the above words and to witness how far beyond the ancient world the branches of imperial dynastic imagery spread. For there, grandiloquently frozen forever in resplendent stained glass, is a representation of Christ and his ancestors in the best dynastic tradition of the Classical and pre-Classical world. "Fused together in rich and complicated patterns are elements drawn from Frankish history and tradition mixed with religious symbolism and political propaganda. Seated en majeste, eleves sur le pavois, kings of the Old Testament are succeeded by the ...

... improbability figure of about 300 years from the outset, apart from the uncertainty factor that attaches to every analysis of this kind anyway. I was greatly perplexed and prepared to believe that this was equivalent to a downright refusal. But then Dr. Z. Iskander led me into an adjoining room which contained fragments from tombs in long rows under glass. He looked around for almost half an hour and finally led me to two pieces. One was a black lump of resin from the tomb of Merneptah, the other consisted of wooden fragments from the tomb of Tutankhamun. I was so to speak being asked to decide myself what to take, and was quite uncertain what to do ...
318. A Rage to Deny: The Roots of the Velikovsky Affair [Books]
... on cosmic cataclysms had become so commonplace that in 1672 Molière . . . could make a joke of it: "( We have, Madam, while sleeping, had a narrow escape. A world has passed by us . . . and if it had on its way met our earth, it would have broken it into pieces like glass.)" (112) The view which won in the late 17th century, however, was not this one but Newton's, and "The notion that the solar system may have a history became, (in the name of the new religion of science) as sacrilegious as it had been for the scholastics." (113 ...

... from the consensus, both on the reality of continental drift and the description of the mechanism behind it in terms of plate tectonics and sea-floor spreading. But Gould sounds the warning himself. A mere eight pages after his most conclusive' refutation of Velikovsky's example Gould discusses a classic case illustrating how things are distorted by the wearing of continental drift glasses and admits: The new orthodoxy colors our vision of all data; there are no "pure facts" in our complex world . . . Many readers may be disturbed by my argument for the primacy of theory. Does it not lead to dogmatism and disrespect for fact? It can, of course, but it need not. ...
320. Velikovsky's Sources Volume One [Books]
... Here is the same passage back in context: " The dividing of the sea was but the first of ten miracles connected with the passage of the Israelites through it. The others were that the waters united in a vault above their heads; twelve paths opened up, one for each of the tribes; the water became as transparent as glass, and each tribe could see the others; the soil underfoot was dry, but it changed into clay when the Egyptians stepped upon it; the walls of water were transformed into rocks, against which the Egyptians were thrown and dashed to death, while before the Israelites they crumbled away into bits. Through the brackish sea flowed a ...
