Debates on The Legend Of Atlantis Immanuel Velikovsky+Friends 1970 2012 6hours (Size: 868.43 MB)
Description
Thought-provoking interviews probing the legend of Atlantis known to Plato, the Egyptians, and much of the ancient world. Among those participating in this four-program series from the 1970's are:
1) Immanuel Velikovsky (1895-1979) iconoclastic thinker and author of "Worlds in Collision" (1950), 2) Hugh Lynn Cayce (1907-1982) son of psychic Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), 3) Dr. J. Manson Valentine (1902-1994) palaeontologist and biologist, 4) James Sturzaker (1917-1993) founder International Order of Kabbalists, 5) Egerton Sykes (1894-1983) renowned scholar, explorer, and Atlantologist. Also interviewed is Oxford-educated authoress, linguist, mysticism scholar, and patron of the arts Princess Marthe de Chambrun Ruspoli (1902-?). The princess was authentic European nobility who could claim Marquis de Lafayette and President Theodore Roosevelt as blood ancestors. Ruspoli's works include "The Divine Hawk" (1969) and "Christians Before Christ" (1980). "Renaissance man" Egerton Sykes wore many hats during his long and full life, viz., foreign correspondent, veteran of two world wars, British Intelligence Officer, diplomat, archaeologist, explorer, linguist, mythologist, bibliophile, lecturer, editor, and prolific author of books and essays. Sykes was highly respected by his peers and could claim membership in The Explorers Club of New York; British Psychological Society; Royal Institute of International Affairs; Royal Geographical Society; Royal Institution; Royal Anthropological Institute; Royal Central Asian Society; British Institute of Management; Royal India Society; Institute of Industrial Administration; Royal Societies Club; Junior Carlton Club; and Royal Aero Club. Sykes's passion Atlantology gave expression to two scholarly journals of his founding, namely, "Atlantis" and "New World Antiquity." For over thirty years and despite occasional good-natured ribbing by his peers, Sykes attended to these journals as both editor and frequent contributor. Voice quality of the interviews is spotty in parts but on the whole quite adequate for enjoyable listening. Hungarian born Toronto poet, author, humorist, philosopher, and multi-media artist Robert Zend (1929-1985) interviews. ------------------------->>> Trevor Palmer illustrates half a century of Catastrophism study, with those who contributed to its development. Starting with the founder of interdisciplinary thought, Immanuel Velikovsky, he covers many of the conflicting theories of how our world has been shaped. Against and above conventional wisdom, many of Velikovsky's predictions have been proven by modern space research. Sadly those who promote the Standard Model refuse to respond to obvious discrepancies and what might be considered better alternatives. We can only hope the next generation is inspired by those in Trevor's talk who dared to be different. ------------------------->>> Daphne Chappell uses her well-illustrated talk to assess methodology used by revisionists to resolve the 'problems' with Immanuel Velikovsky's theory. She analyses the assumptions about reign-length, alter egos and looks at sources of reference material. The SIS-published chronologies are compared for overlaps and incompatibilities.
