... responsible for reshaping a number of myths and legends about the concept of fate; see Vincenzo Ciofarri, Fortune and Fate from Democritus to St. Thomas Aquinas (NY: V. Ciofarri, 1935), pp. 33- 37. Interestingly enough, although Panofsky, pp. 37-38, traced the source of the winged Fates to the Homeric Hymns via Cartari's Imagini dei de gli Antichi (1556), a work which postdated the camera's images by more than three decades, Cartari himself attested to the continuity of the Platonic conception of the Fates as well as his own reliance upon it: "Of these I shall first tell what is to be read of them in Plato ...

345. Discussion Questions From the Floor [Journals] [Aeon]
... meanings that are not contained by literal translations of words? How, if you do not know the original language, can you be sure to render the author's meaning, rather than what you believe, via your own experience, he must have meant?" Back in 1984 I circulated a memo on the correspondence in Nature over just what Homer meant by "wine dark sea." It is by no means obvious or certain. With the idea of "getting into a model and seeing it on its own terms" I have finally read Hamlet's Mill for meaning instead of simply dismissing it on uniformitarian grounds. When one does get into the Hamlet's Mill model, one sees ...
346. Collisions and Upheavals [Journals] [Pensee]
... .8 . From one continent to another men, oppressed with terror, watched Mars battle Venus in the sky, speed fiercely toward the Earth bringing blasts of fire, retreat and engage Venus once more. Perhaps the most startling literary account of this theomachy, or battle of gods, is contained in Homer's Iliad (Velikovsky's revised chronology places Homer later than 747 B.C .) As the Greeks besieged Troy, Athena (Venus) "would utter her loud cry. And over against her spouted Ares (Mars), dread as a dark whirlwind .. . All the roots of many-founted Ida were shaken, and all her peaks." The river "rushed with ...

... to many examples of changes now constantly going on, and insists emphatically on the great results which they must produce in the lapse of ages. He instances particular cases of lakes that had dried up, and deserts that had at length become watered by rivers and fertilized. He points to the growth of the Nilotic Delta since the time of Homer, to the shallowing of the Palus Mseotis within sixty years from his own time ; and although, in the same chapter he says nothing of earthquakes, yet in others of the same treatise he shows himself not unacquainted with their effects.^ He alludes, for example, to the upheaving of one of the Eolian islands previous to ...
349. A Reply to Stiebing [Journals] [Pensee]
... then.) In The Dark Ages of Greece, one of the sequel volumes of Ages in Chaos, on the evidence coming from practically every excavated place in the Aegean area, the old chronological dependence of ancient Greece on Egyptian datings will be discontinued and the classical studies will be freed from the perennially discussed, and never really solved "Homeric question." To illustrate the issue on one example I let the editors of Pensee have the section dealing with Tiryns [following "Scarabs," ed.], the place named by Stiebing. Finally, Stiebing refers to Hammurabi, the king-lawgiver of the First Babylonian Dynasty and says that Moses could not have been as early as ...

It was David, therefore, who first cast the Jebusites out of Jerusalem, and called it by his own name, The City of David: for under our forefather Abraham it was called (Salem, or) Solyma; (5 ) but after that time, some say that Homer mentions it by that name of Solyma, [for he named the temple Solyma, according to the Hebrew language, which denotes security.] Now the whole time from the warfare under Joshua our general against the Canaanites, and from that war in which he overcame them, and distributed the land among the Hebrews, (nor could ...
