... to the esoteric few. In 1913 Hans Hoerbiger published his Glacial-Kosmogonie, contending that the great catastrophes described in ancient myth occurred when the Earth captured another planet which became our moon. (1 ) The relatively small interest in Hoerbiger's thesis vanished within a couple of decades. This was the extent of noteworthy research into myth and catastrophe when Immanuel Velikovsky, in early 1940, first wondered whether a cosmic disturbance may have accompanied the Hebrew Exodus. According to the biblical account, massive plagues occurred, Sinai erupted, and the pillar of cloud and fire moved in the sky. His quest for a solution led Velikovsky through a systematic survey of world mythology and eventually to the conclusion that ...

From: Pensée Vol. 2 No 3: (Fall 1972) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered II" Home | Issue Contents Personal Notes FORUM August 30, 1972 Dear Dr. Velikovsky: I apologize for being so long in reporting on the planetarium program that we have been doing on your theories. In short, the program "Worlds in Collision: The Theories of Immanuel Velikovsky," has had the best reception of any done by this institution. Attendance has surpassed all previous programs. On Sunday afternoons, for instance, we have had at least three full-house programs, with an occasional fourth, compared to the two that we generally do on that day. Weekdays have ...

553. Society News: SIS Autumn Conference 2000 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ejected, the quasars have a high redshift, which then drops and they develop into companion galaxies, developing into stronger X-ray sources and then ejecting material themselves. For someone without any astronomical background, this seems eminently logical and sensible but it does not look like that to the professional astronomers. As we have found in all other disciplines where Velikovsky and his followers have proposed a new way of thinking, astronomers prefer to come up with complicated solutions, rather than accepting something as relatively simple as what Arp is proposing. Arp's findings contradict the Hubble constant which says that velocity increases as you go out from the centre of the universe. He says that redshifts do not indicate velocity ...

... desert cliffs overlooking the village, it is possible to place the lives of the workmen, their wives and their colleagues within the framework of the dynastic system of Egyptian history. Deir el-Medineh, therefore, provides a dense historical archive which has direct bearing on the succession of New Kingdom rulers and on the internal chronology of the period. Dr Velikovsky does not discuss this material, so we shall now look at some examples from it to see what effect it has on his revised chronology. The XVIIIth Dynasty, during which the village was founded [1 ], provides only slight evidence about the community. Only a handful of tombs in the vicinity of the site are known to ...

... and collect the beast, after the animal's skull and back had been exposed to the Sun of two summers.(23) In this and in similar cases, the present cold of the Siberian tundras would have slowed the deteriorating process but it could not entirely arrest it. My intention here is not to repeat old arguments in defence of Velikovsky. But since Earth in Upheaval, the mammoth evidence has again been challenged. William Farrand indirectly attacked Velikovsky long after the latter published his thesis.(24) It therefore behooves us to attempt a short refutation of the former's criticism. Farrand did not direct his attack solely against Velikovsky. His pen also attempted to sweep aside Ivan ...

Such an explanation requires elaboration within a larger historical perspective. Fundamentally, it has been true that any new concept that carried seeds of truth and dispensed with many accepted tenets ...

... The Social Impact of Velikovsky on our Generation Patrick Doran Warning: By present standards the language used within this paper is abusive. This is a paper which is more a collection of thoughts than a thesis. What is it thinking about? We are thinking of the sociological consequences of accepting Velikovsky's catastrophic world. We are searching for precedence. We have lived in the allusion of an orderly, shall we say discreet universe. One which would not entertain interplanetary jostling. After Velikovsky, we are presented with a kind of collective unconscious of catastrophic odd bodkins. This work takes the study of man out of the familiar, scientific, cyclical world into a new landscape- precarious ...

His ideas created a raging affair that became an enormous embar-rassment for the world of modern science. Numerous highly respected scientists and scholars from many fields acted in such a vicious and reprehensible manner that when the news of their behaviour was exposed ...
