A long-established neo-Nazi website incorporates an image of the Parthenon into its logo, and rioters wore Spartan helmets in the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. These juxtapositions may appear incongruous to people who associate the ancient world with enlightened political ideals and sophisticated philosophical inquiry. But, as Curtis Dozier points out in this thought-provoking book, it's hard to imagine a historical period better suited to rhetorical use by white nationalists. Indeed, some of the most widely admired voices from ancient literature and philosophy endorsed ideas that modern white supremacists share, and the social and political realities of the ancient world provide models for political systems that white supremacists would like to establish today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePart introduction to contemporary white nationalist thought, part exploration of ancient racism and xenophobia, and part intellectual history of the political entanglements of past academic study, \u003cem\u003eThe White Pedestal\u003c\/em\u003e reveals that contemporary white nationalist intellectuals know much more about history than many people assume—and they deploy this knowledge with disturbing success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47307374133484,"sku":"9780300272734","price":75.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/d4b566322224aa70e6523571e4f64f1d.jpg?v=1771099336"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/curtis-dozier.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
