History: Fiction or Science? (Chronology, No. 1)

Book Description

Recorded history is a finely-woven magic fabric of intricate lies about events predating the sixteenth century. There is not a single piece of evidence that can be reliably and independently traced back earlier than the eleventh century. This book details events that are substantiated by hard facts and logic, and validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources.

Calculations are only as good as your numbers.......2007-08-03

Yes, we can all agree that mainstream history is nearly 100% BS due to politics, economics, ego, problems with dating techniques, and various conspiracies. Agreed. But, I've been researching the distinct possibility that human history (in terms of civilizations) are much more ancient than we've been told, so coming across this book was very interesting to me. I wondered how Fomenko could be wrong (if at all) because he is very persuasive in his presentations. Then it dawned on me. If at previous times in prehistory, due to the various catastrophies that are well documented (comets, asteroids, planetary disruptions, plasma discharge, pole reversals, etc) the Earth was in a different position in relation to the sun, different tilt on its axis, different orbit, different rotation (in terms of velocity and DIRECTION), and the continents were in different positions, then would this not cause the ancients to see the sky (constellations) differently? In other words, is Fomenko making erronious assumptions about the physics of the Earth in pre-history, which then corrupt his data with regards to dating the relevant astrology? The last event to seriously disrupt our planet occured roughly 3500 years ago, according to other good researchers, so is it possible Fomenko has been confused by this? The vastly different physics of our planet in the not so distant past may explain this confusion, which is not to say the "mainstream" version of history is correct; on the contrary. I am not an expert in these fields, but wanted to see if this idea could spark discussion.

Pants on fire?.......2007-07-19

Will people ever read before spamming? Yes, Jesuits could not rewrite world history alone, they had help. Anyway, Dr Prof Acad A.Fomenko does not point to jesuits as the driving force of world wide history manipulation in published volumes 1,2,3;, actually he barely mentions the poor devils. Check it with 'Search inside' feature, please. China is rarely mentioned either, in fact, Dr Fomenko is completely eurocentric. Right, his theory contradicts all mainstream schools of history, because in their actual state they are all built on blatantly erroneus chronology. You don't need a mysterious cabal (conspiracy) to falsify history, the falsification is its modus operandi. It is inherent to history(ians) to falsify (distort) events, as it is inherent to humans to boast as it is inherent to power (authority) to legimize itself by referrring to glorious past made to its own order. Dr Prof Fomenko and team have identified scores of instances of such manipulation in Russian, European, etc.. history, and delivered valid statistical proof thereof. His own 'reconstruction' is completely another story. Forget c14 as a valid method of dating. W.Libby has initially discovered a brilliant method of INDEPENDENT dating. Too bad, c14 method has become a joke after a forced marrige with dendrochronology with consensual chronological scale inbuilt. Radiocarbon method can't stand blind tests, but is so very productive as a rubberstamp.

Accepted History & Chronology Must Be Changed. .......2007-04-09

There is no doubt that history as most know it is a sham, & institution's version of History both University & Church is fradulent & inaccurate. Everything was established with an agenda, The real "Dark Ages" are now when we have access to incredible amounts of information past authorities & more important 'common folk' didn't have but our institutions & educators are slow to evolve because of what has ignorantly & arrogantly been taught for too long. This is on many subjects not just Chronology.

For anyone to question "Why would a Mathematician have anything credible to say of History?" The answer is from Dr. Fomenko's preface in the book: "It would be worthwhile to remind the reader that in the XVI-XVII century Chronology was considered to be a subdivision of Mathematics." These volumes could possibly be some of the most important works to date & should be read by everyone with an interest in History, especially professors & educators who have a duty to the public. I have read both books & must say that 'Chronology 1' has some very eye opening & revolutionary information. Even if these volumes are part true the implications are profound & opens the doors to further investigations & questions which must be done. I speak several different lanquages & must say the logic Dr. Fomenko uses with "inflection" of words & words being read from left to right in one region & right to left in another then written backwards, the removal of vowels & get down to basics of words, or different cities & locations having the same name etc. is correct. Vowel usage has always been optional & varied, actually complicating linquistics & study. The first thing one has to understand is that words never had a fixed spelling in history like we do now, the spelling of words was mutable & regional, as well as names & titles of people were vast, varied & changed, NOTHING WAS FIXED or understood linear. Matters of Life & Death as well as financial profiteering yesterday & today were & are made with ignorant, illogical & conspiratorial views of history & reality, it's time people get closer to the Truth & society collectively grow up.

Very Interesting.......2007-03-07

It is a good proposal and I believe it will mature into something even better in the future. I think it deserves to be read.

History as Science Fiction.......2007-01-10

Anatoly Fomenko has written a very intriguing book, full of pictures, charts, and computer 'proof' of his thesis: backwards of AD900 we don't really know what happened or when. Between AD900 and AD1600 there is more certainty, but there is still a lot of fuzzy ground, and things don't get reliable until we get past the 1600's where the printing press made it very difficult for the perpetrators of this timeline manipulation to change anything that had been committed to print. The Dark Ages did not happen. Books were burned for a reason. One organization has doubled the actual length of its existence by expanding the real chronology. Read why.

I had always wondered why Christ died about AD33 and yet men waited until the 11th century to form the Knights Templar, the Cathars, etc and go after the Holy Land by force. Why the 1000 year gap? Turns out there wasn't more than a 10-12 year gap and he proves it using astronomy. This also implies that the planet is not as old as we have been told, and current Christian and other creationist scientists are already championing that idea without being aware of Fomenko's book. The two groups, creationist scientists and the Russian mathematical analysts corroborate each other. Fascinating.

Of course, all this flies in the face of what we have been told traditionally is the 'proper' chronology of western civilization, and most readers will experience 'cognitive dissonance' in reading this book. It means that our history going backwards from AD1600 becomes progressively more incorrect and unreliable until it cannot be trusted at all... in the space of 700-800 years.

Naturally, the curious, open-minded reader will want to know WHO did this, WHY, and did any of the events we think of as really ancient ever happen?
Dr. Fomenko is a respected scientist/mathematician at Moscow State University who has already answered these questions to the satisfaction of his initially skeptical colleagues. Most of them are now believers, a few still refuse to believe (the usual diehards), and of course the western press has ignored Fomenko's work -- for obvious reasons when you read the book. The ones who perpetrated this chronology ruse have a lot to answer for. They are still with us. That's why this book is a well-kept secret.

I gave the book a 4-star rating because I was unable to check out some of his claims; those I checked were as he said. But if even 1/3 of his claims are true, this punches a big hole in what we think is our history, the meaning of western civilization, our educational process (for repeating the ruse as gospel), and the trustworthiness of the organization that perpetrated this ruse, well-intentioned or not.

This book relates to current research into a Young Earth paradigm, to John Keel's discoveries about our planet, and Fr Malachi Martin's insights (in his now out-of-print books). We are indeed sheep who are manipulated and kept ignorant -- for a reason. While knowing what these men have to say may be the "booby prize" (as in: 'what can you do with this knowledge?'), it will provide interesting reading. Didn't someone say: "...and the Truth will set you free."?? For you to judge if this book contains the truth.

I remember it from my youth........2007-08-31

Eventhough this book is about the grizzly journey of a fox out on a hunting mission for his family, it reminds me of my elementary years. the pictures are reminiscent of the cold Autumn day in Maine.

A New England masterpiece.......2007-01-30

I just want to point out the errors in the reviewer 'Mark Savary "moon_city" '. He notes that the setting of this book probably is not New England due to the presence of tobacco farms, which, he adds, is not a crop grown in New England. As of 2006, tobacco leaf was one of the four main crops exported by New England states (along with vegetables, seed, and wheat). Western Massachusetts is notable for its presence of old, gabled tobacco farms for hang drying leaf. In addition, the numerous Civil War monuments to Union soldiers identify this as a northern state... as do, of course, the corn, pumkins, and covered bridges.

This is a wonderfully illustrated and old-timey book, but one of its greatnesses is its artful rendering of scenic New England a century or more ago.

GREAT!.......2007-01-04

I highly recomend this book for children. It is a great family get-together. I would like to get Burl Ives rendition of it. He also has a CD of it.

A Classic Song Illustrated.......2006-11-06

My daughter LOVES Nickel Creek's version of "The Fox Went Out.." and expressed a desire to learn it. She is pre-reading, and so the pictures in this book have proved to be a valuable tool for jogging her memory for the lyrics. Though the subject matter can seem a bit "gory" to modern parents ("Cut up the goose with a fork and a knife"), the illustrations (while suggestive) are not by any means inappropriate for even the youngest of children. Recommended for children (and adults!) who are familiar with the folk tune and would like a nice book to add to their collection.

the fox.......2006-10-31

the fox went out one chilly night,
he prayed to the moon to give him light,
for he had many a mile to go that night,
before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o!
many a mile to go that night, before he reached the town-o!

this is the first paragraph of the song. just thought i'd share

This is Louise's story, the one she knows by heart. And it is your story, too-the one that you forgot. "Remember You Are Magic"

Breathtaking.......2007-04-02

After recieving a reading from Louise I've read her book intensily. It is truly amazing and takes you away into her world with her. She shares this journey with the world and I am honored to have been part of her journey. This book is a must read for all, whether you believe or not. Louise has a true heavenly gift from the gods. I would recommend this book and any in the future as well as her readings and conversations. This book will open your eyes and change your life for the better. Jump in the adventure and enjoy the senses. Thank you Louise for everything, you are a true inspiration to me and I love you for it.

I found this book to be a very moving experience. I enjoyed every page of the journey. I've told all my friends about it. Thank you Ms. Strongbear for sharing with us all.

I found myself traveling along in the enchanted world. Knowing how close you can be to the spirit world in your dreams is a wonderment. I know there are answers in your dreams if you just look and pay attention. Thank you Louise for guiding me through. This is a book everyone should read. Buy two and give one to a friend.

Spellbound.......2007-03-13

Unlike most reviewers, I COULD put Journey by Night down - as when you
are spellbound by a beautiful dream - and you don't want it to end....

My journey through this book took me to a completely new place. I read
and reread lines, passages, poems and chapters. As with anything practiced, it got easier...
to capture a glimpse of what can be possible
on ones own personal journey.

I evolved from an onlooker in that solitary night, to a seeker.

This book and its wisdom will be my bedside companion.

Let us hope there will be many more to come.

I would give this 10 stars if I could!!!!.......2007-03-06

You would have thought Ms. StrongBear wrote books for years. Journey by Night was very inspirational. This is one to remember...come and be a Wayfarer, as Wolf states: "Wayfarer is one who travels by foot, one step at a time. This is a way of learning. Human steps." If you feel lost and alone in the world, travel with StrongBear and meet her animated characters. Once you meet "Jimmy the Leprechaun" and feel his comedic charm, (as he tickles you and himself) but his passionate soul will let you know how similar we are with other living creatures. If you are not satisfied with his cleverness, stroll down the page and take a whimsical retreat into Pegasus world. His world is not filled with long-term suffering and illness; the aura is pleasant--letting you know that the grass is greener on the other side. After reading this book it will answer your question and have you asking questions...you would want to learn more about magic!

I would like to thank you Louise StrongBear for opening up my thinking to a whole new world. I am inspired and I believe you are a healer with the ability to capture your reader. Capturing your reader to make them believe they were there with you while in fear, afraid; but yet, having the courage to find out who you are. Hesitant but eager to connect to helpful strangers; with the question--"Haven't we met before?" Questioning should you give up, but kept your feet planted on the ground as you trotted to your destiny.

Thank you once more for bringing your iridescence as you journey by night. The stars and moon are shining bright for you. Thanks for creating an uplifting story.

History & Romance .......2007-03-20

Who knew that a history lesson combined with some steamy romance could be so entertaining. I thoroughly enjoyed the mix and can't wait to read more of her historical romance novels. I loved the relationship between Cara and Chase. Thank you, Beverly Jenkins.

Brilliant story.......2006-10-10

I have come 10 years late to this genre, I never knew it existed but now I am hooked. Beverly Jenkins provide historial information, suspense, romance and a good story you never want her books to end. I look forward to reading all of them. Beg, buy , borrow of steal (well not steal) to read her books if you have to.

Another Awesome Book!!!!.......2006-08-01

I must say...I have never been a romance novel reader. However, I was introduced to Beverly Jenkins' books by a friend. I read Night Song, then others she has written....Oh My God! I truly enjoyed her books. Beverly is now on my list of favorite authors. Her stories aren't totally based on romance; there's other factors which takes place in her stories which aren't so set around romance. Also, I love the history background in her love stories. I am a history buff and I truly her fiction based on historical facts. Being an author myself, she has given me many pointers on how to tell a great story. She has truly inspired me in some ways for my future works and work in progress. Her story telling talent is off the chain. . Her characters become real to me. I am looking foward to reading more of her books.

Night Song.......2006-07-28

I bought and read Night Song when it first came out and read it again this week, it was even better the second time around. Chase and Cara were so real to me this time it was like reading history with real people. Please tell Mrs. Jenkins to write a follow up story for Chase and Cara and make sure that (we the readers) know when it's comming out I will be one of the first to buy one. I will read other books of hers as well but this is tops. Loved the phrase "grand passion".

Mesmerizing..........2006-04-21

I'm really appreciative of other reader's reviews, especially when they are on the money. Going on the recommendations of others, "Night Song" was my first Beverly Jenkins book. This book was MESMERIZING and SEXY. I am now a die hard fan and plan to read all her books.

Cara and Chase were SO meant for each other. Both had suffered loss, but were survivors. The sparks that flew between them were intense and nearly jumped off the pages. I also enjoyed the historical background of the Tenth and Ninth Calvary. Most of all, I was so happy to see that despite the slavery, prejudice and hardship surrounding Cara and Chase, they had the determination, commitment and courage to love. Wonderful, wonderful book!

Unique to the world of music and admired for their richly emotional content, African-American spirituals receive the celebration they deserve in this collection of songs for young children. Old favorites such as "O When the Saints Go Marching In" and "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands" are coupled with lesser-known titles such as the collection's namesake, "All Night, All Day." All of the songs are stirring and inspirational when sung by young children. They come with guitar and piano accompaniments, as well as warmly hued, free-flowing illustrations of natural forms--waves, leaves, flower petals, stars--that suggest a feeling of radiance and hope. All Night, All Day won the Coretta Scott King Award for 1992.
