Sinopse

Dance Conspiracy Theories explores the intriguing possibility that the history of dance isn't quite what we think. It delves into the idea that dance, often seen as pure art, could be a vehicle for secret codes and hidden agendas.

 
The book examines whether dance legends were secretly part of powerful societies, using their influence to promote specific ideologies through their choreography. The book also investigates whether choreographers subtly embedded political or philosophical messages into their performances, bypassing censorship and conveying subversive ideas.

 
It challenges conventional understandings of dance history, prompting a re-evaluation of its cultural impact. To appreciate these theories, a basic understanding of dance history, especially ballet and modern dance, is helpful.

 
The book progresses by introducing conspiracy theory concepts and then applies them to case studies. It dissects famous performances, searching for hidden symbolism and coded messages, and assesses the plausibility of these theories. This unique approach applies conspiracy theory research methods to dance history, encouraging readers to critically evaluate evidence and consider the hidden meanings within the performing arts.

The Conspiracists - Women...

Noelle Cook

Leafing through photos from the January 6 insurrection, extremist researcher Noelle Cook was struck by how many women looked like her: middle-aged white women in puffy coats. Women were not on the fringes of the extreme right, she realized. They were radicalizing each other, and the pandemic was changing them. So who were the women of J6? And why did some of them believe in shape-shifting reptilians and the health benefits of colloidal silver? 
 
This is the world scholars call conspirituality, in which New Age religion, online wellness culture, and extremism blend and become laced with antisemitic and racist theories. With acute attention to the emotional lives of women and research on conspiracism, Cook introduces us to Tammy, who believed storming the Capitol would help take down a global cabal of pedophiles. We also meet Yvonne, convinced she is a starseed destined to lead others into the fifth dimension. We visit a trade show where vendors hawk everything from quantum healing devices to government cover-ups, and trace the movement's roots to a nineteenth-century mystical philosophy. Women are crafting entire worlds and we ignore these worlds at our own peril. As misinformation spreads and extremism intensifies, The Conspiracists does not seek to excuse women's conspiracism but rather to understand it. Otherwise, we have no hope of countering its force.

Benito Mussolini - The Doctrine...

Benito Mussolini

“It’s better to live one day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep.”

"I am the most terrible animal that's ever existed."

"Democracy is beautiful in theory; in practice, it is a fallacy. You in America will see that someday."

"It's good to trust others but, not to do so is much better."

“I feel, when we have no friends upon whom to lean, or to look for moral guidance." (Mussolini)

Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini, born on July 29, 1883, who went by the nickname “Il Duce” (“the Leader”), was a deeply unbalanced tyrannical Italian dictator who created the dreaded Fascist Party in 1919. Eventually, he held all power in Italy as the country’s prime minister from 1922 to 1943. An ardent socialist as a youth, Mussolini followed in his father's political footsteps but was expelled by the party for his overt support of World War I. As an evil dictator during World War II (even murdering his own son by lethal injection) he greatly overextended his forces and was eventually killed by his own people in Mezzegra, Italy. Here, for the first time, are the words of the great dictator himself in his twisted manifesto on the political movement he started and is still so feared to this very day.

In this dynamic audiobook, the specter of Benito Mussolini comes alive. Wrought in painstaking detail as to the historical and controversial nature of this work here is the larger-than-life presence of Il Duce (The Boss) who lorded over Italy as a ruthless dictator from 1925 to 1945. Here is the ultimate look at the life of one of the 20th century's most compelling and troubling figures. An amazing audiobook adventure from start to finish.
