234. On The Symposium Trail [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 4 No 5: (Winter 1974-75) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered X" Home | Issue Contents On The Symposium Trail Duquesne History Forum Philosophy of Science Association The "Year of Velikovsky" has finally wound down to its conclusion, with the convening of the last two of the year's five scholarly symposia dealing with his work. Quite appropriately, a year which began with politically charged deliberations of the AAAS, ended with the Philosophy of Science Association examining "Velikovsky and the Politics of Science." That political considerations have dominated the Velikovsky case throughout its stormy history is universally recognized today. Nor can it be said that those considerations have now largely dissipated ...
235. Velikovsky's Challenge to the Scientific Establishment [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 3 No 1: (Winter 1973) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered III" Home | Issue Contents Velikovsky's Challenge to the Scientific Establishment Sidney Willhelm Scientific Objectivity and Scientific Research Dr. Willhelm is an associate professor of' sociology at the State University of New York (Buffalo). The paper published here was first read at the Velikovsky Symposium, Lewis and Clark College (Portland, Oregon), August 18, 1972. As articulated by its adherents, the scientific format supposedly provides the greatest assurance for advancing knowledge and ridding ourselves of prevailing myths; it is, in its purest expression, the guarantee that truth will emerge in spite of prejudice, ...
... From "Beyond Velikovsky" © 1984 by Henry H. Baue | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents Epilogue Epilogue I have thought a great deal about the Velikovsky affair, and now I have written quite a lot about it. Most of the time I thoroughly enjoyed what I was doing, aware that I was learning much in the process. I have not, however, learned a simple answer to the question that is usually put- was Velikovsky right? I did learn that Velikovsky was quite ignorant of science, and I cheerfully dismiss as nonsense his explanation of physical events, where indeed he gives any. Nonetheless, his cosmic scenario just might have some truth to it ...
237. Ebla and Velikovsky [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Proceedings of the First Seminar of Catastrophism and Ancient History (1983) Home | Issue Contents Ebla and Velikovsky Marvin Arnold Luckerman Introduction Thus small article attempts to show the relationship between the theories of Immanuel Velikovsky and the new findings from the city of Ebla. Dr. Velikovsky has written several books and articles on many aspects of Old World history, but with regard to Elba there are two important caveats to remember. The first- and in the author's opinion the most crucial- is that Velikovsky placed the exodus at the end of the Middle Kingdom of Egypt,1 which would put Joseph in the Middle Kingdom as well,2 and Abraham at tine end of ...
238. Reexamination of the Foundations [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 2 No 2: (May 1972) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered I" Home | Issue Contents Reexamination of the Foundations Forum/Interview/Letters The following is excerpted from a telephone interview with Dr. George Grinnell on March 15, 1972. Grinnell is a professor of history at McMaster University, Canada. His field of study is the history of science. The strong reaction to Dr. Velikovsky is understandable to one who has done research in the history of science. Velikovsky has taken a look at the foundations of astronomy and geology, hitting at those very sensitive spots which were never empirically established. Uniformitarianism in geology was basically a political doctrine ...

240. Briefings [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol IV No 2/3 (Winter 1979/80) Home | Issue Contents Briefings de mottuis nil nisi bonum There is nothing like death for discovering the true worth of a man. Like Divine Augustus and the kings of Egypt, Dr Velikovsky seems to have been translated by his passing to a higher plane of existence, and compliments may now accompany mentions of him. His obituary in the Washington Star of November 21st, for instance, ends with the remarks: ". .. he left us a beacon of sorts, beyond theories of galloping planets and cultural connections. He reminded us that one may indeed stake out new intellectual territory in ...
