Throne Legitimacy Rituals

Throne Legitimacy Rituals explores how ancient and medieval rulers established and maintained their power. It argues that legitimacy wasn't a static right, but a dynamic narrative constructed through public rituals, claims of noble bloodline, and assertions of divine favor. Consider, for example, coronations, which were carefully staged events designed to project power and reinforce the ruler's image. Similarly, royal genealogies were meticulously managed to solidify dynastic succession, emphasizing the importance of bloodline logic in legitimizing rule.

The book is divided into three sections that analyze public rituals, bloodline logic, and divine associations, showing how these elements interacted and evolved over time. By examining chronicles, legal codes, and archaeological findings, Throne Legitimacy Rituals provides a comprehensive analysis of how legitimacy was constructed and maintained. It offers a framework for understanding how rulers throughout history have sought to legitimize their authority.
