962. The Legends of the Jews: Volume I - Preface [Books]
... craved entertainment in later times as well as in the earlier, only instead of resorting for its subject-matter to what happened under their eyes, they drew from the fountain-head of the past. The events in the ancient history of Israel, which was not only studied, but lived over again daily, stimulated the desire to criticize it. The religious reflections upon nature laid down in the myths of the people, the fairy tales, which have the sole object of pleasing, and the legends, which are the people's verdict upon history- all these were welded into one product. The fancy of the Jewish people was engaged by the past reflected in the Bible, and all its creations ...
963. Aeon Volume III, Number 3: Contents [Journals] [Aeon]
... the pages of this journal- AEON- we present a continuing discussion of unusual theories about man, the earth and the heavens. More than one of the theories presented here will challenge deeply-held premises of modern scientific thought, while offering new vistas in the quest for knowledge. Under the present topic, "The Planets in Ancient Myth and Religion," we explore the evidence for global catastrophes and interplanetary upheaval in the recent past, seeking out the implications for the affected disciplines. The symposium is designed to encourage independent investigation, to speed up the process of communicating findings to others, and to foster a wider debate as to the interpretation of new data. AEON will pursue ...

... be-haviour of the East African honeyguide. Page 51 A Renaissance Saturn In examining the various lunettes in the domed ceiling of the Camera di San Paolo, in the Italian city of Parma, Maureen Pelta demonstrates that, not only did the classical deities survive in Renaissance art, but the beliefs associated with them were also incorporated into the philosophical and religious thinking of the time. Page 71 Let There Be Darkness: An Archetypal Analysis of Adolf Hitler in the Third Reich In a lengthy excerpt from a much longer work, Lewis M. Greenberg analyses the persistence with which archetypal motifs continued to surface during the Third Reich, as also Hitler's obsessive behaviour in identifying with the mythological heroes associated ...

... bright ones), also had the meaning = stars (shooting stars) and the fairies were people of the stars. He mentions a whole gamut of Irish material from black pig dyke which ran along the ancient border of Ulster, fire festivals (at Imbolc, Bealtaine, Lughnasa and Samhain), great gatherings of the Irish which involved religious ceremonies (Christianised), music, tales, poetry, and mythic stories. People hiked up holy mountains, visited island sanctuaries on sacred loughs, or gathered by the side of rivers (an idea absorbed into Christianity). We learn that Samhain was also regarded as a feast of the white goddess and samh has the meaning = ...

967. The Electric Universe: Slide Presentation & Notes by Wallace Thornhill [Journals] [Aeon]
... source. Is this a coincidence, or were the thunderbolts of Zeus interplanetary electrical discharges? Thornhill recommends Eric J. Lerner's, The Big Bang Never Happened, [2 ] as an introduction to the concepts of the electrical universe. I agree, but with a couple of reservations. It should come with a warning: Lerner's political and religious opinions (including, but not limited to, barbs against catastrophism) may be offensive to some readers. In addition, while describing the scalability of plasma phenomena, jumping from events in the lab to similar events in galaxies, his imagination fails him at the stellar scale. Once inside the orbit of Pluto, Lerner drops the electric ...

970. Let There be Darkness: The Reign of the Swastika by Lewis M. Greenberg [Journals] [Aeon]
... not an invention of Schliemann's, it having been discussed as early as the Middle Ages. But it now took a decidedly dark turn "when the ancient Hindu doctrine of the race purity of the ruling class was rationalized by the Germans to demonstrate Aryan superiority over the Jews." The swastika thus became imbued with an enormously strong symbolic and religious status that made it the natural future choice as the primary icon of the Nazi party. The next portion of the book delves more deeply into the earliest ties between Germany and Troy. Right from Roman times up through the time of Clovis and Emperor Charlemagne (800 AD), into the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, all royal ...
