Sinopse

Strange Royal Traditions explores the fascinating and often bizarre customs upheld by royal families throughout history and across the globe. It examines how seemingly odd practices, such as sneezing being a capital offense in some courts, or the elaborate rituals surrounding royal births, served essential roles in reinforcing social hierarchies and legitimizing rule. The book isn't just a catalog of strange traditions; it delves into the reasons behind them, uncovering the beliefs and values that underpinned these royal customs and shaped historical events.

 
The book progresses by first examining the origins and evolution of royal traditions. It then focuses on legal oddities, like sumptuary laws dictating dress, and elaborate rituals surrounding life events such as marriages and coronations. By taking a comparative approach, Strange Royal Traditions highlights universal themes in royal behavior while also showcasing unique cultural variations in royal life.

 
The book uses historical documents, anthropological studies, and accounts of royal life to support its arguments, making it valuable for anyone interested in history and culture.

    The historical figure of the dandy has commonly been described as an upper-class gentleman. But there is a broader history to be told about the dandy—one that incorporates unknown men from the lower strata of society.The Dandy: A People's History constitutes the first history of those dandies who emanated from the less privileged layers of the populace—the lowly clerks, shop assistants, domestic servants, and laborers who increasingly during the modern age have emerged as style-conscious men about town.A series of fascinating in-depth studies of the wide variety of dandy subcultures that have surfaced around the world in the last two centuries tell the story of how the shaping of fashions and the image of men became increasingly democratized, with the arbiters of taste increasingly coming from the other end of the social spectrum. We encounter such long-forgotten groups as the mashers, the knuts, the Paris gandins and the Berlin transgender dandies, alongside unexplored figures like the zoot suiter, the teddy boy, and the New Romantic.This is a story of how fundamental aspects of modern culture such as fashion, style, and conduct have been shaped from below just as much as from above.

    It is nearly impossible to imagine Giza any different today with its desert backdrop and its majestic, sentinel-like pyramids that can't help but exude a sense of permanence. 
    Edfu's account, compiled from a series of now lost books attributed to the moon-god Thoth, allows us to reconstruct how the Giza plateau may have looked over 11,000 years ago. 
    Giza was built around a shallow lake, fed directly from the Nile if the texts were believed. This ecosystem is similar to what one might see today in equatorial Africa. If we find a time machine and travel back to this distant era, we would find a hot, humid atmosphere alive with lush green vegetation. 
    This hypothesis is not mere speculation, for it is known that the river used to flow closer to the plateau's edge in the past. In addition, evidence of a lake and dock dating back to Old Kingdom times has also been found beyond the plateau's western limits. 
    In the eyes of the Shining Ones, this would represent the primordial sea of chaos from which the first land appeared at the beginning of Time.
