352. Empedocles, Healer of the Mind (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... anything that he considered a satisfactory answer to this question. * * * Let us now consider the two passages in which Freud refers to Empedocles by name - the later one first, because it is shorter. In An Outline of Psycho-Analysis (written in 1938), Freud turns once again to the two basic instincts, Eros and the destructive instinct (or Thanatos), and elaborates upon the distinction as follows (XXIII, 148-149): "The aim of the first of these basic instincts is to establish ever greater unities and to preserve them thus - in short, to bind together; the aim of the second is, on the contrary, to undo connections and ...
353. Sicily, Carthage, and the Fall of Troy [Journals] [Kronos]
... geographer, thus described the situation that ensued in the wake of Troy's fall: "For it came about that, on account of the length of the campaign, the Greeks of that time, and the barbarians as well, lost both what they had at home and what they had acquired by the campaign; and so, after the destruction of Troy, not only did the victors turn to piracy because of their poverty, but still more the vanquished who survived the war. And indeed, it is said that a great many cities were founded by them along the whole seacoast outside of Greece, and in some parts of the interior also."(2 ) Excavations ...
354. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... belong" in the Late Bronze Age, Kenyon has to identify the city attacked by Joshua's troops with Jericho's meagre LBA traces. Since in Kenyon's opinion this scantily attested LBA occupation terminated c. 1300 BC, this is the date chosen for Joshua's attack. There are, however, no traces of violent (or any other kind of) destruction at this time, and no LBA fortifications to fit the walled city of the biblical story. Since Kenyon accepts a date for the Exodus in the reign of Ramesses II (conventionally 13th century), she has to acknowledge that "one cannot fit in an Exodus during the reign of Ramesses II, say c. 1250 BC . ...
355. The Obliteration of Human Signs [Books] [de Grazia books]
... that the falsity of your views cannot be proven, that your assertions can remain forever in the limbo of seductive fable?" The answer is another question: "How is it that your accuse me of something for which I am not accountable? You ask me to provide records of an event whose great force was exercised precisely in the destruction of those records? Does this not make our scores even?" Both feel frustrated, but perhaps become a little more sympathetic, too. Nearly every work dealing with prehistory and antiquity must lament the paucity of evidence. If there is pride in this study, it comes from having made so much out of so little- a ...
356. Megiddo [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History VIII:2 (July 1986) Home | Issue Contents Megiddo Michael S. Sanders Jeroboam to So Historians and archaeologists who have investigated the sites of Samaria, without exception, have accepted the proposition that Shishak of the Bible was King Shoshenk 1, first ruler of the Twenty-Second Dynasty of Egypt. Further, destruction layers found on the relevant sites have been ascribed to this ruler based presumably on the list of conquered cities found on the wall of the Great Karnak Temple of Shoshenk I. [1 ] Such blind acceptance of the equation Sheshonk I = Shishak flies in the face not only of the biblical record but also common sense, and it ...
357. 'Worlds in Collision' After Heinsohn [Journals] [SIS Review]
... prophets is associated with a king earlier than the -6th century, so none was witness to celestially-caused catastrophes. The second is that most were separated by no more than a century or two from the Exodus event, which Heinsohn dates to c. -630. The texts of the prophets are rich in memories of this and the future acts of destruction and salvation they prophesy are frequently compared to that wondrous past: As in the days of old when you came out of Egypt, grant us to see wonders' (Micah 7. 15) [32]. For Velikovsky's prophets the days of old' are the eight centuries between Exodus and Isaiah but for Heinsohn's prophets, only ...
358. Isaiah, Part 2 Mars Ch.1 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... From "Worlds in Collision" © 1950 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents Isaiah According to Hebrew sources,1 Isaiah began to prophesy immediately after the "commotion" of the days of Uzziah, even on the same day. The destruction in the land was very great. "Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire. . . . Except the Lord of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah" (1 :7 ff.). The very horizon of Jerusalem was disfigured by the splitting of the mountain on the west; and ...

... same crossing. They began to move back from the ideology of progressive science into an ideology of the mystic, the occult, of magic, and of "fundamental" realities. Instead of pursuing pragmatic science and focusing upon cultural progress, many began to develop a concern for the survival of the species and a fascination for the forces of destruction. Impending catastrophe had come to engage popular attention. Unidentified flying objects are observed, said to be carrying intruders of superior technology from far space. Since inspection at close quarters of Mars, Moon and Venus has rendered impossible a belief in these bodies as bases of operations for the invaders, a farther space is postulated. Efforts are ...
360. An Integrated Model for an Earthwide Event at 2300 BC. Part II: The Climatological Evidence [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a book for publication in 1988. This article, and his previous (in SIS Review V:3 ), represent extended extracts of two chapters in the book. Introduction This article is the second in a series presenting evidence for a possible earthwide event at 2300 BC. The first article covering the archaeological evidence presented strong indications of site destructions widespread around the globe as well as migrations [1 ]. The climatological evidence in this article shows very distinct climatic changes at that time which could have been a major stimulus for the migrations. Furthermore, the climatic changes were most likely to have been brought about by a global temperature drop which has also been established at about 2300 ...
