Über Symbole zu sprechen bedeutet, die Struktur hinter der Schöpfung zu erfassen. Zeitlos haben sie aus der tiefsten menschlichen Vergangenheit bis in die Gegenwart überdauert. Einige dieser Symbole treten zeitgleich in verschiedenen Teilen der Erde auf. Dies legt die Hypothese nahe, dass die selben Symbole nicht durch den Kontakt verschiedener Völker entstanden sind, sondern dass jedes Volk vielmehr aus einem vorzeitlichen, allen Menschen zugänglichen Substrat schöpft. Inhaltsverzeichnis Einleitung Eine Richtigstellung Die Triskele Einige Beispiele für Triskele: Variationen Hypothese über den Ursprung Interpretation des Symbols Bedeutung der Triskele oder: womit verbindet uns das Symbol?

"Fascism" is a word ubiquitous in our contemporary political discourse, but few know about its roots in the ancient past or its long, strange evolution to the present.In ancient Rome, the fasces were a bundle of wooden rods bound with a leather cord, in which an axe was placed--in essence, a mobile kit for corporal or capital punishment. Attendants typically carried fasces before Rome's higher officials, to induce feelings of respect and fear for the relevant authority. This highly performative Roman institution had a lifespan of almost two millennia, and made a deep impression on subsequent eras, from the Byzantine period to the present.Starting in the Renaissance, we find revivals and reinterpretations of the ancient fasces, accelerating especially after 1789, the first year of the United States' Constitution and the opening volley of the French Revolution. But it was Benito Mussolini, who, beginning in 1919, propagated the fasces on an unprecedented scale. Oddly, today the emblem has grown largely unfamiliar, which in turn has offered an opening to contemporary extremist groups.In The Fasces, T. Corey Brennan offers the first global history of the nature, development, and competing meanings of this stark symbol, from antiquity to the twenty-first century. The word "fascism" has universal awareness in contemporary political discourse, which thus makes this, the first book to trace the full arc of the fasces' almost 3,000-year history, essential reading for all who wish to understand how the past informs the present.
