Meer oor hierdie e-boek

""Eternal Kings"" explores how rulers throughout history have used claims of divine right and supernatural power to solidify their authority and shape their societies.
By examining the reigns of pharaohs, emperors, and monarchs, the book reveals the diverse strategies employed, from elaborate religious rituals to calculated propaganda campaigns.
These methods not only legitimized their rule but also profoundly influenced the political, social, and cultural development of their civilizations.
The book investigates the construction and impact of these claims, challenging traditional historical narratives.
For example, the strategic use of visual and textual propaganda allowed rulers to carefully build their image.
Examining the reigns of specific rulers, each section dissects how they cultivated an image of divine or supernatural power, supported by archaeological evidence, historical records, and religious texts.

Organized in three parts, the book first introduces the concept of ""eternal kingship.""
It then examines case studies of rulers who claimed divine authority.
Finally, the book analyzes the lasting impact of these claims on political systems and cultural beliefs, offering readers a fresh perspective on the dynamics of leadership, the manipulation of belief systems, and the enduring influence of mythology on human societies.
