602. The 'Unconscious' as a Literary Revolt Against Science [Books] [de Grazia books]
... of psychological functions and social behaviors, in areas that must be designated non-instinctual or at least not wholly instinctual, and therefore human. Perhaps our historical study may generate hypotheses in answer to the questions: What will follow the U paradigm? Or, after the Unconscious, what? The literary mind is not happy with being a "reservation Indian." A continuous bombardment of the scientists occurs. We are so used to it that we only know of its excesses. The literary mind wants the real world to have the catastrophic qualities so that it can turn its plots and characters loose upon it. This will continue to cause tension between science and literature, with science requiring ...
603. Genesis and The Origin of Species. C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... belief that had been kept by the Jews until 2,000 years ago. Science now admits that catastrophes are respectable, with two agents allowed. One, a super-volcano, no one has seen, e.g . Yellowstone which erupts every 600,000 years and will any moment now. The last blew up in the E. Indian archipelago 80,000 years ago. The other is an asteroid. I heard an expert' on Tomorrow's World saying it's absolutely certain that we'll be hit by an asteroid - but will it be before or after the super-volcano blows? I think that of the two, a cometary impact is a far stronger contender than a super-volcano; ...
604. A Failed Excursion to the Caves of Aquitaine [Books] [de Grazia books]
... grand trappings of the IXth Congress whose name is emblazoned in giant letters upon thousands of posters around Nice as if it were a World's Fair or at least the Cannes Film Festival. The field was taken up by the French a hundred years ago when the rest of the world ignored pre-history, thought it was amusing (as with the American Indians) but not a great discipline, or was deficient in all field research areas of historical science (as e.g . Thailand, India) and relied upon legends. But the concentration of leadership means the concentration of concepts and their imperialism in many places where they are perhaps inapplicable. Written during a thoroughly boring grand reunion in ...
... , therefore, came down in an elongated area about 100o in length and about 20o in width, whose central line runs from about the eastern coast of Brazil, through the South Atlantic Ocean and South Africa (from the region of Southern Angola via Rhodesia to Mozambique in Portuguese East Africa) as far as the Mascarene-Seychelles islands arc in the Indian Ocean, and, of course, some way beyond. This area of the Earth is very rich in ores and it shows, as do its extensions, other aspects which may be interpreted as having been caused by the impact of major masses of satellitic debris. All these problems will be treated in detail in their proper places. ...
... '; they have come about by the drifting apart of the floes of a disrupted arch-continent. The Pacific Ocean has always been a sea, with few land areas, the remnant of the great arch-ocean. The other seas were formed during the process of the continental drift: the Atlantic Ocean was formed by the Americas drifting away; the Indian Ocean came into being when Antarctica and Australia separated from the arch-continent; the Arctic Ocean was formed by what is now the centre of the north of North America drifting rapidly away from the north of the European-Asiatic part of the arch-continent, thus bringing into existence a very considerable expanse of water. The actuality of the great continental drift is ...

608. Did Artaxerxes III Despoil The Temple In Jerusalem? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... , as did Cyrus. In Daniel 8:6 [we read]: and he came to the ram with two horns'. The last word in Hebrew is Karanaim': krnym. In Arabic it is Zialgharein or Zelgarne or Zeiranain .. . Many Arab and Persian scholars have referred to Zelranain as Alexander who destroyed Persian and Indian culture' [11]. It is evident then that the confusion over the two Naboniduses must take a large part of the blame for the chaotic chronology we now possess, yet other factors played their part. To begin with, there was the Achaemenid habit of aping the great empires of the past - particularly the Assyrians and Babylonians ...
... people being drowned, and shoals of herrings were thrown high and dry on the shore. All these incidents, which are in no sense phenomenal, point to the systematic destruction of coastlands by the rising waters. It is not limited to one place or region. It exists in the Pacific as well as in the Atlantic, in the Indian Ocean also. It is worldwide. The question we shall have to consider is, will the overflowing oceans lead ultimately to a further shift of the Magnetic Poles to another point? Notes. 1 In October 1931 the sea broke through in the neighbourhood of Rye and swept away bungalows. The whole reclaimed region is menaced again by the ...
610. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Review]
... evidence from the 10th century shows Jews with traditional Turkish names. In India the recent finds of submerged cities on the southern coast support the theory that the ancient Vedic civilisation originated in the southern coastal region. Vedic literature has close connections with the sea, which does not seem appropriate for illiterate migrants from the steppes, the usual theory of Indian population.
