... From: SIS Review Vol III No 2 (Autumn 1978) Home | Issue Contents Focus A Point of View LEROY ELLENBERGER After the excitement of my independent discovery of Worlds in Collision in 1969 wore off, the continuing focus of my interest resided in science's reception of Velikovsky's ideas. The Velikovsky Affair [1 ], chanced upon in 1971, answered many questions raised in reading the popular periodicals - Harper's, Time, Newsweek, Analog, etc. However, even after the ten issues of Pensée - IVR, Polanyi in Minerva [2 ], Storer in Scientists Confront Velikovsky [3 ], and Brian Martin's "The Determinants of Scientific Behaviour" [4 ], ...
192. Some Notes on the Revised Chronology (part one) [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... , and following from Dr. Velikovsky's chronological revisions are the result of misinterpretations and misquotes. I should like to take this opportunity to correct some of them. I further believe that the correct application of certain data will result in a chronological revision vastly different from Dr. Velikovsky's. 1) In Kronos III:3 p.13, Velikovsky states: - "However, Herodotus also gave a second name of the Egyptian king who opposed Sennacherib. He called him Sethos and Psammetich. He said that after the departure of the Ethiopian king Sabacos (Shabaka) from Egypt, Sethos became king; but in another place he said that, after the departure of the Ethiopian king ...

Rather, based on the nature and scope of his challenge to the paradigmatic assumptions of his age, I propose to present him as a useful case study of how certain personal and environmental ...
194. Velikovsky and Racial Memory [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon III:3 (Oct 1993) Home | Issue Contents Velikovsky and Racial Memory Duane Vorhees Edward O. Tabor had remarked that Velikovsky developed "a kind of analytic technique comparable to that which [Theodor] Reik has stripped myths for their core meanings," but Reik remained within the psychoanalytic tradition. (1 ) Velikovsky, despite repeated references to the importance of psychoanalytic insights to his own approach, rarely used overt psychoanalytic conceptualizations- or even referred to his own work in the area- to buttress his arguments. (The only major exception was his demonstration that Nebuchadnezzar and Hattusilis were the same person psychologically: Even then, the psychological argument was secondary ...
195. A British Forum for the Velikovsky Debate [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History II:2 (Jun 1980) Home | Issue Contents Advertisment A British Forum for the Velikovsky Debate RECENT YEARS have seen a revival of interest in the theories of DR IMMANUEL VELIKOVSKY. His proposals are now being taken seriously by an increasing number of scholars, whose support can be added to the earlier favourable comments on his historical work by such authorities as J. GARSTANG (excavator of Jericho), ROBERT H. PFEIFFER (Chmn., Dept. of Semitic Languages, Harvard) and ETIENNE DRIOTON (Director, Dept. of Antiquities Cairo; Chief Curator, Louvre). Velikovsky's first historical work, "Ages in Chaos" ( ...
196. From the Editor [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 3 No 1: (Winter 1973) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered III" Home | Issue Contents From the Editor A Brief Look Back The publication of this our third issue on Immanuel Velikovsky marks nearly a year since our first effort to draw the attention of the public and the academic community to the scholarly successes which Velikovsky's work has enjoyed. We originally intended, for that first issue, to publish but a single article on Velikovsky, indicating something of the nature and significance of his work, and the confirmations it has gained. But the subject matter, as if endowed with a compelling force of its own, soon grew to fill an entire ...

The year was 1950. The Communists in the Soviet Union had just tested their first atomic bomb, and the Communists in China had just seized power; the Communists in Korea were about to involve the United States in a costly, futile war. ...
200. TOWARDS A SCIENCE OF MYTHOLOGY: VELIKOVSKY'S CONTRIBUTION [Journals] [Aeon]
... greatest of ancient goddesses- Inanna, Ishtar, Astarte, Isis, Anat, Aphrodite, etc.- invoked by the epithet Queen of Heaven and specifically identified with the planet Venus? (4 ) Why were those same goddesses associated with a destructive epiphany said to have threatened the very foundations of heaven and earth? (5 ) Only Velikovsky, among the hundreds of scholars who have explored these traditions, dared to ask the question: Is it possible to explain the myth of the goddess from the behavior of the planet? Close upon the heels of each of these questions follows a host of others, equally inexplicable from the conventional perspective which imagines the planets to have varied ...
