... by the fact that Plato consistently advances important propositions through the complementary juxtaposition of two modes of presentation; as logical conclusion or necessary implication of the dialectical argument from explicit and critically clarified premises (the logos of the dialogue); and as the essential purport of that "mixture of untruth and truth" (Rep. 337A) known as myth and which plays a vital role in nearly all the dialogues. Thus, as truth is to be apprehended by a process combining reason and intuition, so its Platonic expression takes a form that does make it accessible, but only as the combination of Logos and Mythos. ATLANTIS Of the explicitly catastrophist references in Plato, by far the ...

234. Venus in Ancient Myth and Language: Part Two [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon I:3 (1988) Home | Issue Contents Venus in Ancient Myth and Language: Part Two Ev Cochrane In "Venus in Ancient Myth and Language," Part I, we presented a survey of the ancient mythology of the planet Venus. The central hypothesis was that this planet's myths and symbols might serve to illuminate the original significance of the vocabulary surrounding the Latin goddess Venus. Of particular interest was a hypothetical relationship between Venus and words signifying a "band" or "bond" of some sort. The Latin vinculum, signifying "band", "cord", or "noose" was cited as an example of this phenomenon, vinculum ...

237. The Hermes Connection [Journals] [Aeon]
... column, effulgent with it own inner light. (1 ) The Personification of this Polar Column was none other than the demiurge Hermes himself, as The Way, The Path, and The Light. This thesis implies that the present planet closest to the Sun- the one we call "Mercury" today- was not involved in the myths surrounding Hermes, despite the identity with the Roman god who shares the planet's name. The planetary identification came much later, after the final collapse of the Polar Column and a clearing of the mists, exposing the night sky for the first time with all its fearful darkness. The impression of the Polar Column captured the imagination of ancient ...

240. Homer in the Baltic (Omero nel Baltico) by Felice Vinci (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... J. Sweeney The title of this book explains the content. Basically Felice Vinci argues that all the action of the two Homeric epics, the Odyssey and the Iliad, took place in the Baltic and the North Atlantic. Furthermore, it is asserted that the Achaeans (Homer's Greeks) originated along the shores of the Baltic and took their myths and legends (already fully developed) southwards when they settled around the Aegean. The book begins by quoting Professor Moses Finlay, the British classicist, who spoke of the complete lack of contact between Mycenaean geography, as we know it from the tablets and from archaeology, and Homer's accounts'. We are then treated to a detailed ...
