Book Synopsis History, Fiction Or Science? by : Anatoly Fomenko
Download or read book History, Fiction Or Science? written by Anatoly Fomenko and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-01-16 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History: Fiction or Science? is the most explosive tractate on history ever written - however, every theory it contains, no matter how unorthodox, is backed by solid scientific data. Mainstream history 'science' says that after some 1000 years of sound sleep Europeans suddenly woke up as Christians to the hilt, armed themselves and started touring-crusading Middle East during 200 years to punish at last tormentors of Jesus, searching for the Saint Sepulchre, Saint Graals, Saint spears, nails and bits of Saint Cross and other reliques and curiosities. Christians finished their tour with a bang by sacking Constatinople allegedly in 1204 a.d. Local populations became muslims, crusaded back and built a Caliphate that span from Arabia to Morocco and North Africa, took Constantinople in 1453 a.d. Dr. Fomenko calls all this 'science' wrong. The Europeans did not hibernate for 1000 years before going after the wrongdoers. Dr. Fomenko's New Chronology sees the history of the world religions as follows: the pre-Christian period (prior to XI c. and Jesus Christ), Bacchic hristianity (XI-XII c., before and after Jesus Christ), Jesus Christ Christianity (XII-XIV c.) with its subsequent mutations in XV-XVII centuries into Orthodox Christianity, the Catholic Christianity, Protestant Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, etc. Religious wars were a way of life. Dr. Fomenko does forensics with Occam's razor on the beautiful body of the world history. Its skeleton looks very different from one of the mainstream history. The author sees it very much compressed: all real events that took place over 1200 years ago as well as people who allegedly acted in them are simply unknown to us and will stay so forever. Ancient Egypt, Europe, Rome, China, India, etc..etc histories are simply figmental prior to that date. Homo sapience could neither read, nor write as yet. That was actually prehistory. Everything that is told to us about events that happened 1200 years ago is fiction. Human 'civilization' has yet to be worked out by homo sapience crowd. Civilisation started its relentless march with lots of sweat, blood and tears only about 800 a.d. Civilisation has developed its major features like writing, communications, religions and arts, centralised civil and military management only by 1000 a.d. Homo sapience sapiences did not sit on their hands - they applied immediately what they discovered and invented. Dr Fomenko et al. suspect that: Jesus Christ was born in 1152 a.d. and crucified in 1185 a.d. Both the New and the Old Testaments refer to mediaeval events. Apocalypse was written in 1486 a.d. Does this sound uncanny? This version of events is substantiated by hard facts and logic, validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources - to a greater extent than everything you may have read and heard about history before. The dominating historical discourse in its current state was essentially crafted in the XVI century from a rather contradictory jumble of sources such as innumerable copies of ancient Latin and Greek manuscripts whose originals had vanished in the Dark Ages and the allegedly irrefutable proof offered by late mediaeval astronomers, resting upon the power of ecclesial authorities. Nearly all of its components are blatantly untrue! For some of us, it shall possibly be quite disturbing to see the magnificent edifice of classical history turn into a snake pit of mediaeval politics. Twice so, in fact: the first time, millenarian dust on the ancient marble turn into a mere layer of dirt. The second, and greater, attack of unease comes with the awareness of just how many areas of human knowledge still trust the three elephants of the consensual chronology to support them. Dr. Fomenko et al. are waiting to repent and retract if exact sciences produce valid objective refutations thereof.
Book Synopsis The Cambridge History of Science Fiction by : Gerry Canavan
Download or read book The Cambridge History of Science Fiction written by Gerry Canavan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first science fiction course in the American academy was held in the early 1950s. In the sixty years since, science fiction has become a recognized and established literary genre with a significant and growing body of scholarship. The Cambridge History of Science Fiction is a landmark volume as the first authoritative history of the genre. Over forty contributors with diverse and complementary specialties present a history of science fiction across national and genre boundaries, and trace its intellectual and creative roots in the philosophical and fantastic narratives of the ancient past. Science fiction as a literary genre is the central focus of the volume, but fundamental to its story is its non-literary cultural manifestations and influence. Coverage thus includes transmedia manifestations as an integral part of the genre's history, including not only short stories and novels, but also film, art, architecture, music, comics, and interactive media.

Book excerpt: History: Fiction or Science? is the most explosive tractate on history ever written - however, every theory it contains, no matter how unorthodox, is backed by solid scientific data. The book is well-illustrated, contains over 500 graphs, copies of ancient manuscripts, and countless facts attesting to the falsity of the chronology used nowadays, which never cease to amaze the reader. Eminent mathematician proves that: Jesus Christ was born in 1053 and crucified in 1086 The Old Testament refers to mediaeval events. Apocalypse was written after 1486. Does this sound uncanny? This version of events is substantiated by hard facts and logic - validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources - to a greater extent than everything you may have read and heard about history before. The dominating historical discourse in its current state was essentially crafted in the XVI century from a rather contradictory jumble of sources such as innumerable copies of ancient Latin and Greek manuscripts whose originals had vanished in the Dark Ages and the allegedly irrefutable proof offered by late mediaeval astronomers, resting upon the power of ecclesial authorities. Nearly all of its components are blatantly untrue! For some of us, it shall possibly be quite disturbing to see the magnificent edifice of classical history to turn into an ominous simulacrum brooding over the snake pit of mediaeval politics. Twice so, in fact: the first seeing the legendary millenarian dust on the ancient marble turn into a mere layer of dirt - one that meticulous unprejudiced research can eventually remove. The second, and greater, attack of unease comes with the awareness of just how manyareas of human knowledge still trust the three elephants of the consensual chronology to support them. Nothing can remedy that except for an individual chronological revolution happening in the minds of a large enough number of people.

Book Synopsis The Issue With Chronology by : Anatoly Fomenko
Download or read book The Issue With Chronology written by Anatoly Fomenko and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-20 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NASA research of earth-moon mechanics of late astrophysicist Robert Newton leads Russian mathematicians to a breakthrough in the chronology of the world history that crowns 30 years of meticulous and extensive research.This research was actually an anecdotical byproduct of Russian-American competition in Moon exploration.'The The issue with Chronology' is the first volume in "History: Fiction or Science?" e-series, the fundamental oeuvre that exposes and expounds the numerous in-veracities of the traditional version of history.The E-series "History: Fiction or Science?" contains data and conclusions that aren't anything short of revolutionary. The alternatives offered to classical history are stunning, unorthodox to the extent of being labeled heretical by virtually every scholar of history.In "The Issue with Chronology" we are reminded of when the contemporary chronological scale was created and by whom, with the culprits named as the XVI-XVII century clergy that was in charge of all matters historical in that age. We also learn that the consensual model of history had prominent critics ever since its creation - among them such names as Sir Isaac Newton and Jean Hardouin, chief librarian of Louis XIV, the Sun King of France and collector of Louvre museum.The author dissects every historical age and analyzed the data from every source imaginable - Roman and Egyptian chronology take a good beating, and it goes rapidly downhill from there. Poggio Bracciolini and Petrarch take the blame for creating the legend of a mythical Classical age that never was.The Biblical events are moved a lot closer to us historically, as well as geographically (the Biblical Jerusalem being identified with the mediaeval Constantinople, for instance). The New and the Old Testament swap their positions on the chronological scale, both exposed as referring to mediaeval events. Our perception of history begins to change dramatically even before we're through with "The Issue with Chronology".On one hand, Dr. Fomenko et al call everybody, historians including, to apply the Occam's razor to the world history. On the other, the scientists Dr. Fomenko et al are ready to recognize their alleged mistakes of New Chronology theory, to repent and to retract if and only if:- radiocarbon dating methods or dendrochronology pass a rigorous anonymous 'black box' tests;- verifiable astronomic data refutes their results on solar eclipses;- it is proven irrefutably that Robert Newton (NASA astrophysicist) was wrong calling 'ancient' Ptolemy the greatest con man in history in his 'Crime of Claudius Ptolemy'; The radiocarbon dating labs run their very costly tests only if the sample to be dated is accompanied with an idea of age pronounced by historians on basis of...subjective..mmm...gutfeeling. Radiocarbon labs happily bill for their fiddling and fine-tuning with C14 hardware to get the dates 'to order' of historians.The first circular calibration curve was made by mid-fifties by Radiolab of Arizona Univesity with samples from 'Ancient' Egypt provided by the expedition of the same University. Circulus Vicious is perfect. Connect the dots!PS : Prescient Saint Augustine warned: 'be wary of mathematicians, particularly when they speak the truth!'. That's why Jesuits took over control of Chronology in XVI cy when it was a part of mathematics. Now the mathematicians take it back. The New Chronology theory based on exact sciences says that all events that took place allegedly over 1300 years ago, as well as real persons who took part in them, are simply unknown to us. Dr. Anatoly Fomenko is a Full Member (Academician) of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Full Member of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, Full Member of the International Higher Education Academy of Sciences, Doctor of Physics and Mathematics, Professor, Head of the Moscow State University Department of Mathematics and Mechanics.

Book Synopsis The Issue with Antiquity. by : Gleb Nosovskiy
Download or read book The Issue with Antiquity. written by Gleb Nosovskiy and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The consensual world history was manufactured in Europe in XVI-XIX centuries on political agenda of powers of that period on the basis of erroneous clerical chronology elaborated by the Kabbalist Jesuits Joseph Justus Scaliger and perfected by the Jesuit Dionysius Petavius. By the middle of XVI th century the prime political agenda of Europe that reached superiority in Sciences and Technologies, but was still inferior militarily to the Evil Empire of Eurasia, was to free Europe. The concerted effort of European aristocracy, black and white Catholic clergy, Protestants, humanists and scientists in XVI - XVII th centuries in creation and dissemination of fictional Ancient World served this agenda perfectly. The fictional Ancient World of Antiquity was created by black and white Catholic clergy, Protestants, humanists, and scientists by representing events of XI-XVI centuries as ones that happened thousands of years before according to the famous ancient authorities they invented. The European aristocracy, a considerable part of which were noble fugitives from Byzantine and/or the inheritors of Eurasian warlords, supported the myth of Ancient World to justify its claims to countries they ruled. The black and white Catholic clergy, Protestants developed and supported the myth of Ancient World to justify their claims of being more ancient and to separate themselves from orthodoxy in the countries ruled by European aristocracy and nobility. The scientists supported the myth of Ancient World as safe cover for their research that produced results heretic from the point of view of Christianity. They justified their discoveries by authorities of ancient scientists they themselves invented and used as pseudonyms. The humanists developed and supported the myth of Ancient World as convenient cover for their ideas that conflicted with Christianity and aristocracy. Humanists too justified their ideas with authorities of ancient authors of their own making and used as pseudonyms. Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past - George Orwell, 1984 'Antiquity' taught in schools and universities worldwide is pure fiction! We are told that 'Antiquity' was followed by many centuries of utter stagnation and decline with virtually nothing happening but wars and famine and the destruction of the priceless ancient monuments. Then, during the Renaissance, the Classical authors reappear from oblivion, Latin and Greek become resurrected as the intelligentsia Esperanto of the Middle Ages, numerous manuscripts reappear from oblivion to be copied, enter wide circulation, and vanish again, never to be found. The learned crowd of humanists and clergy invented 'ancient' Greek and Latin languages wrote 'antique' masterpieces under 'antique' sounding pseudonyms.The talented artists, painters, and sculptors of XV-XVIII century mass produced required paraphernalia. Renaissance was on! The demand of the European aristocracy, nobility and the burgers for 'antique' labeled articles prices was solid. 'Antiquity' paraphernalia fetched high prices and was sold to the public lock, stock, and barrel. How preposterous would it be to suggest that there were no Dark Ages to separate the antiquity from the Renaissance - that the "Re-naissance" was, in fact, the Naissance of the Western European culture as we know it? The mythical Classical Age came into being from misdating medieval events by hundreds and thousands of years. 'Antiquity' meme is planted into defenseless young brains. Kids love tales and don't ask teachers awkward questions.
Book Synopsis The History of Science Fiction by : Adam Roberts
Download or read book The History of Science Fiction written by Adam Roberts and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2016-08-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the definitive critical history of science fiction. The 2006 first edition of this work traced the development of the genre from Ancient Greece and the European Reformation through to the end of the 20th century. This new 2nd edition has been revised thoroughly and very significantly expanded. An all-new final chapter discusses 21st-century science fiction, and there is new material in every chapter: a wealth of new readings and original research. The author’s groundbreaking thesis that science fiction is born out of the 17th-century Reformation is here bolstered with a wide range of new supporting material and many hundreds of 17th- and 18th-century science fiction texts, some of which have never been discussed before. The account of 19th-century science fiction has been expanded, and the various chapters tracing the twentieth-century bring in more writing by women, and science fiction in other media including cinema, TV, comics, fan-culture and other modes.
Book Synopsis The Issue With Tamerlane by : Anatoly Fomenko
Download or read book The Issue With Tamerlane written by Anatoly Fomenko and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-04 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tamerlane Sword of Islam alias Alexader the GreatBrief consensual history version: the utmost warlord Tamerlane or Timur the Lame (1336 - 1405) was a Turco-Mongol conqueror. He led military campaigns across Western, South and Central Asia, the Caucasus and southern Russia, and emerged as the most powerful ruler in the Muslim world after defeating the Mamluks of Egypt and the Ottoman Empire. Tamerlane founded of the Timurid Empire in Persia and Central Asia.Timur tried to restore the Mongol Empire and justified his Iranian, Mamluk, and Ottoman campaigns as a re-imposition of legitimate Mongol control over lands taken by usurpers. In the course of his numerous campaigns that span from Russia to India and to legitimize his conquests, Timur relied on Islamic symbols and language, referred to himself as the "Sword of Islam", and patronized educational and religious institutions. The research of Dr. Fomenko et al leads us to a new understanding of the famous Tamerlane's biography. The oversized Tamerlane figure was a collation of two real historical figures for the most part, the first of them being Temir Aksak, or the "Iron Cripple," from the late XIV century, and the second - Sultan Mehmet II (Mohammed II), the famous XV century conqueror who took Constantinople in 1453. Moreover, not a drop of Ghengis blood in neither of them. Better yet, the figmental figure of Tamerlane idem Timur became the foundation for the consensual 'biography' of the greatest warrior of all times Alexander the Great. The dominating historical discourse in its current state was essentially crafted in the XVI century from a rather contradictory jumble of sources literally in line with American philosopher Santana's definition: � History is a pack of lies about events that never happened told by people who weren't there �. Prescient Saint Augustine warned: 'be wary of mathematicians, particularly when they speak the truth!'.
Book Synopsis Genesis: History, Fiction, or Neither? by : James K. Hoffmeier
Download or read book Genesis: History, Fiction, or Neither? written by James K. Hoffmeier and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2015-05-12 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature of the Genesis narrative has sparked much debate among Christians. This book introduces three predominant interpretive genres and their implications for biblical understanding. Each contributor identifies their position on the genre or genres of Genesis, chapters 1-11, addresses why their interpretation is respectful of and appropriate to the text, and contributes examples of its application to a variety of passages. The positions include: Theological History(Genesis can be taken seriously as both history and theology) – defended by James K. Hoffmeier. Proto-History (the early Genesis narratives consist of a variety of literary genres; which, nonetheless, do not obscure the book's theological teaching) – defended by Gordon J. Wenham. Ancient Historiography (an understanding of Genesis that seeks to reconcile the limitations of its human authors with the nature of it being the Word of God) defended by Kenton L. Sparks. General editor and Old Testament scholar Charles Halton explains the importance of genre and provides historical insight in the introduction and helpful summaries of each position in the conclusion. In the reader-friendly Counterpoints format, this book helps readers to reflect on the strengths and weaknesses of each view and draw informed conclusions in this much-debated topic.
