542. Asimov, Velikovsky, Science Fiction, and "Worlds in Collision" [Journals] [Kronos]
... . . The genre has never really slept: Fred Hoyle's Black Cloud has been followed by Larry Niven's "Inconstant Moon", Allan W. Eckert's The Hab Theory and Niven and Pournelle's Lucifer's Hammer (a substructurally suggestive one, that !) .* We may never know how big a part the unconscious memory may have played in the writing of these stories, but one of the best evocations of a world in catastrophe was written fully consciously: this was "Truth to Tell" by Joe Haldeman, and what is interesting about it is the context in which it appeared. A tale of a world devastated at long intervals by a cosmically-induced, planet-wide flood (shades of ...
543. Metron [Journals] [Kronos]
... of God or man to be the ultimate reality depends on their connection with measure. It is important to know how the Greeks operated empirically in the matter of measurements. The Greeks had a scientific system of measures connecting length, volume, and weight. This system was not their invention, but was developed in Mesopotamia before the origin of writing, before 3000 B.C . All units of length, volume, and weight can be derived by a few simple arithmetical rules from a single lineal standard, the so-called Egyptian foot of 300 mm. This is proved through an extensive survey of the archaeological and written evidence for the Near East and Europe, including Russia; there ...
544. Velikovsky's 360 days/year calendar [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... Sun. But on the contrary Velikovsky's conclusion is in revolution of Earth itself. He says at that time Earth revolved around Sun 360 days per one revolution. This conclusion is hardly believe for the most of scientists because planets' rotation/revolution is basic of all fundamentals. It cannot be change so easily. Anyway as long as his writing, almost every ancient peoples are used 360 days/year calendars by all around world, from Egypt to Maya, from India to China. I want to know whether this really true or not. Please let me know if you know ancient (< BC1500) calendar which is counted 365 days per year. Thanks. Yusuke From ...
545. Remarks on Dr. Courville's Seminar Presentation, "The Albrecht/Glueck-Aharoni/Rothenberg Confrontation" [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... checked in the original, whether English, Hebrew, Greek, or Egyptian hieroglyphs- the last under the guidance of a foremost linguist and ancient Egyptian language expert. The fundamental error of Dr. Courville's statement appears in his Introduction (p . 1). Concerning "characteristic Edomite pottery style found throughout the Negeb," Dr. Courville writes: "To Glueck . . . this pottery belonged into Iron II, datable conventionally to the period 900-600 B.C . By this view the ceramics are pre-Solomonic." Neither statement is correct. Nowhere- absolutely nowhere- does Glueck or any archaeologist known to me speak of a period 900-600 B.C . Nor does he ...

547. Immanuel Velikovsky: A Short Biography [Journals] [Pensee]
... violinist. He edited the Scripta Universitatis, for which Albert Einstein prepared the mathematical-physical section. From 1924 to 1939 Velikovsky lived in Palestine, practicing psychoanalysis- he had studied under Freud's pupil, Wilhelm Stekel in Vienna- and editing Scripta Academica Hierosolymitana. In 1930 he published the first paper to suggest epileptics are characterized by pathological encephalograms. Some of his writings appeared in Freud's Imago. After reading Moses and Monotheism, Velikovsky conceived the possibility that Pharaoh Akhnaton, the real hero of Freud's book, was the legendary Oedipus, (a thesis later argued in his book, Oedipus and Akhnaton.) In 1939 Velikovsky took a sabbatical year, traveling with his family to New York only a few ...
548. Introduction to Velikovsky [Articles]
... few days. I would go further, and say that he cannot be adequately introduced. If you want to really grasp what he says, you must read his books. No introduction to "Hamlet" can equal the experience of "Hamlet", and no introduction to Velikovsky can equal the experience of his own lucid and beautifully organized writings. However, I have given myself the task of telling you something meaningful and coherent about Immanuel Velikovsky in 30 or 40 minutes, and that is what 1 shall try to do. The Velikovsky story, the Velikovsky saga, has really only just begun. Twenty-five years ago, his first book, "Worlds in Collision", ...
549. The Sulfur Connection [Journals] [Kronos]
... ."(4 ) This led me to conduct additional research of my own. What came to light indicated that the odor of sulfur was associated with lightning as much by modern observers as it had been by the ancients. Moreover, the tenacity of the odor described in the above datum is apparently inherent in the phenomenon. Thus, writing in 1838, M. Arago informed his readers that: ". . . the thunderbolt, wherever it passes, occasions, even in the open air, odours which are perceptible for a long time . . . in most instances [this odour] has been stated to resemble the smell of sulphur; on other occasions it has ...
550. "SUPPORT FOR VELIKOVSKY" [Journals] [Pensee]
... Home | Issue Contents "SUPPORT FOR VELIKOVSKY"A poll of scientists by Industrial Research shows strong agreement with Velikovsky's catastrophism. Compendium Review "The majority of respondents to the March opinion poll in Industrial Research give support to Velikovsky's theories of catastrophic upheavals in man's past. More than 80% are inclined to believe some or all of what he writes." A shocking statement for some, perhaps, but it comes from the editors of Industrial Research, a leading, technology-centered publication circulated among "qualified scientists, engineers, and administrators in technically oriented organizations in the United States." The opinion poll results were published in the June, 1973, issue of Industrial Research under the ...
