Download or read book Black Athena Revisited written by Mary R. Lefkowitz and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-03-24 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was Western civilization founded by ancient Egyptians and Phoenicians? Can the ancient Egyptians usefully be called black? Did the ancient Greeks borrow religion, science, and philosophy from the Egyptians and Phoenicians? Have scholars ignored the Afroasiatic roots of Western civilization as a result of racism and anti-Semitism? In this collection of twenty essays, leading scholars in a broad range of disciplines confront the claims made by Martin Bernal in Black Athena: The Afroasiatic Roots of Classical Civilization. In that work, Bernal proposed a radical reinterpretation of the roots of classical civilization, contending that ancient Greek culture derived from Egypt and Phoenicia and that European scholars have been biased against the notion of Egyptian and Phoenician influence on Western civilization. The contributors to this volume argue that Bernal's claims are exaggerated and in many cases unjustified. Topics covered include race and physical anthropology; the question of an Egyptian invasion of Greece; the origins of Greek language, philosophy, and science; and racism and anti-Semitism in classical scholarship. In the conclusion to the volume, the editors propose an entirely new scholarly framework for understanding the relationship between the cultures of the ancient Near East and Greece and the origins of Western civilization.

Download or read book Is the Book of Genesis Weird written by Lev Roemmerbet and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s easy to select and interpret some of the tales of the Book of Genesis that narrate contradictory stories of the same event, which means that one of the stories or the two of them are false. In Is the Book of Genesis Weird?, author Lev Roemmerbet analyzes and slightly rejects some contradictions and lies presented in the book of Genesis as if they were true. Written to help you to develop abilities to evaluate and reason, he addresses a host of questions about Genesis: Aren’t the myths of the book of Genesis adapted from the Egyptian and from the Mesopotamian myths? Where did God come from, and where was he before he created the heavens and the earth? Did God create man or did man create God? What is Eden? Did the Lord extradite Adam so he (the Lord) could freely create Cain and Abel? Did Abram impregnate Hagar (his second and simultaneous wife) hermaphroditically? Was Seth the first hermaphrodite son that God created with Eve, as Isaac was the “son-on-the-knees” that the Lord created with Sarah? Is the Book of Genesis Weird? helps you discover some of the irreconcilable contradictions, immoralities, and lies within the Book of Genesis. It encourages you to not be afraid to acquire valuable knowledge and not to become Bible literate.
Download or read book The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind written by Julian Jaynes and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2000-08-15 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry
