4074 | THEM00286 | Notes on ancient religions | 1 | 11 | Yahuda Ms. 17.1 | 6146 | 1 | 1680s and early 1690s | 50 | A substantial bundle of Latin notes on the beliefs and religious practices of various pre-Christian societies. Newton attempts to show that various supposedly mythical figures in Egyptian, Greek, Chaldean and other literatures can be equated with what he considers historical Old Testament characters such as Noah and his sons. | 6/20/21, 7:30 PM | 6/20/21, 7:30 PM | View Edit Delete | ||
4075 | THEM00287 | Notes and drafts relating to 'Theologiae Gentilis Origines Philosophicae' | Notes on ancient physico-theology | 1 | 11 | Yahuda Ms. 17.2 | 35000 | 1 | 1680s and early 1690s | 50 | Exceptionally chaotic and heavily reworked Latin notes on the theology of various pre-Christian societies, principally the Jews, Egyptians, Greeks and Chaldaeans. For the most part, the notes do not appear to be in a sequential order and it is possible that many pages have come adrift from other portions of the archive. As with many of Newton's writings on this topic, the principal goal appears to be to establish connections between divine or mythical characters in different belief systems: for instance, he argues that the Jewish Noah, the Egyptian Thoth and the Greek Zeus are variant extrapolations of the same historical figure. | 6/20/21, 7:30 PM | 6/20/21, 7:30 PM | View Edit Delete |
