Información sobre este eBook
""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.
